Before we get started...

...let me just muck about with Blogger for a bit. For a nerd planning on blogging about nerds, nerdery and my own nerd history, I know so very little about the internet. My brain kind of got full of shitty fantasy novels back in high school, and never really let it go to learn about computers, despite a state education So while I have little idea how to attach an image in this blog post, I do know that Drizzt Do'Urden was a Dark Elf Ranger that wielded scimitars in both hands.



Ugh. So my joy in successfully uploading the picture is mitigated by my first thought when seeing the picture, which was that the swords don't look like the scimitars from the covers of the first six Drizzt-starring Forgotten Realms books by R.A. Salvatore. Second thought: Bleagh.

So yeah, clearly I need a place to confess my nerdiness.

Update: And that armor - which I have every reason to believe is scale mail - looks way too heavy for a Ranger. I think scale mail was allowed for Rangers in D&D just barely, but I have no idea how Drizzt would possibly Hide In Shadows wearing that kind of get-up.

Update #2: Bleagh.
