Ah, the Norwegian in me loves to hear you say that. I've been told that the root of my real life first name (Tyrel) is that of the Scandinavian god of battle (Tyr). You're into mythology, is that true??

Norwegians unite!! (What the hell, even though I'm only 1/4 Norwegian, that still counts doesn't it??

Very big into Mythology, Egyptian being a personal favourite. I'm also into Ancient History that goes alongside mythology.

I'm currently working towards A-Levels in Archaeology, and then possibly a degree with a specialisation in Egyptology. That would be a perfect job for me, of course I'll most likely be in my late 20's before I Reach that far

I've got your back.... I'm also 1/4 Norwegian! Not all that into European mythology...

Anyhow, my handle comes from my other hobby: Warhammer 40k, a miniature battles wargame set in the future. I wound up selecting as my army the Emperor's Children, and then after that began using that in their forums. I've used the name ever since.
