Welcome to the Watch Covenant. :D
You do not hear, and so you cannot be redeemed.

In the name of their ancient pride and humiliation, they had made commitments with no possible outcome except bereavement.

He knew only that they had never striven to reject the boundaries of themselves.

Uh, strangely enough, no. We do play a forum version of a PBM game, and we're about to start another one, but neither of them have anything to do with the Land. :D Although the new one culd be sorta Gap like I guess.

*shrug* Check out the Gravin Threndor forum.

Hello, everyone. It's been song long since I've had to introduce myself on a forum I've quite forgotten how to do so.

I'm 21 and 10 months old, I think, currently living in South Carolina, though I spent the last four years in Gainesville, Florida. A few months ago, about December, a friend of mine and I were at an After-Party talking about Science Fiction and Fantasy, and he asked me if I'd ever read the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever. I said no. So, next week, at the next after-party, there was a well read little red book sitting on the pool table. I believe it took me about three days to read it, and then I read it again just to make sure that I really did read what I thought I'd read. Within a month I'd finished the rest of the First Chronicles. It wasn't until the start of May, when I'd moved back Home, that I found out there was a Second Chronicles. I was quite, uh, shocked, at learning there was more Hansen-y goodness out there, and managed to aquire copies of the Second Chronicles and Runes of the Earth.

I have to say that The Chronicles, First and Second, are quite possibly the greatest books I have ever read. I prefer them to Tolkien now-a-days, which is something of a breach between me and my father, as, well, he tried to read the books long ago when the first came out but couldn't make it past a certain chapter in the first book.

Since I first read Lord Foul's Bane, I have developed what some might call an unhealthy obsession with Thomas Covenant, down to shopping for White Gold Wedding Bands on eBay, and trying to find a local store that sells large quantities of Ebony for making a New Staff of Law. Of course, I live in mortal terror that if I ever actually do buy a white gold ring I'll get involved with another Joan-like person, contract Hansen's and then get hit by a police car.

So, Hullo.

For the nonce, I refuse to believe in the veracity or the balderdashiness of the above statement... Also, I'm poor. In spirit as in finances.

I bring my own Alcohol. That was I can keep it with me so none of the Vampires can drink it.

Oi. I'm dead on the inside. Until I manage to find that Lucky Nine-Band Armadillo, I'm not yet a real Leper. I just play one in my head.

:LOLS: Welcome to the Watch. As you can see, some of the people here are more than a little bit odd. :D Look around. There's much much more to the place than just Covenant. :)

Have fun. ;)

Well, I lurked on here for a few weeks before I attempted to join, and due to your regisration and posting settings, it was a while before I could post. I've actually thought about forming some sort of group related to Linden Avery, based on the members' shared respect and affection for her.

Oh, you seriously want a Linden-lovers group? There is one, although I'm damned if I can remember what it's called. Apply to MatrixMan for details. :D

Well, you can't have haters without lovers. I think. Or maybe I'm just too groggy to remember my philosophy.
