It seems kinda funny a member with such a name can be welcome here |

Posted - 19 Feb 2003 : 03:29:17 Actually, Artalis, Zemd, the name you're referring to is "bookworm" -- my nick is Bookwyrm. I chose this name because it's a play on words. Wyrm and worm sound almost the same, but wyrm is actually a Middle English word meaning dragon. Personally, I love puns and plays on words -- which is why I like things like Asterix (no, Zemd, I don't read it in the original French). |

Posted - 18 Feb 2003 : 21:04:41 Nowadays it is, but originally it was a bug that had a particular liking for parchment I believe.
It is that meaning which Frey was referring to but you are not wrong Zemd. I believe that was the one that Bookwyrm was thinking of when he created the profile. |

Why thank you. Actually, I like this name so much, I use it whenever I can, and have for several years.
However, I know for certain that there's a Bookwyrm on AIM, so don't assume it's me if you see this name someplace else. |

Not the only Dragon? No... I'm pretty sure of another Dragon roaming between these walls... in disguise... Maybe there are even more...

Posted - 17 Feb 2003 : 22:16:42 Ah, my polymorph spell has been seen through . . . . Yes, I am a dragon. But instead of gold, I hoard knoledge and stories, and share them with others . . . . But surely you've noticed I'm not the only dragon within these walls? |
