Kjeldoria? Kjeldor? (KRG)

I have a degree in geography, and have no idea where that is... does it actually exist, or is it the town just north of Avanti?

JD speculated that it was a Star Wars reference. I thought it might be a Star Trek reference. It appears to be neither of the above. To find the source, you'd best resort to a little Magic.

Doh, I have no connection at all to that game

I think it was a form of a god or mighty warrior from the Viking days somewhere near Iceland.

It could be a Viking thing, it certainly has that kind of ring to it.

Seems to remind me of a name from a deck of MTG cards.

No, I'm well past the MTG stage but I do have some cards for sale if you interested .....

It's from a Magic card. I have a bunch of old ones from when I used to play and saw that name one day.

I used to really be into the Magic card game. KRG is a bird that lives in and protects a tundra kingdom.

I wondered were your name came from the first time I saw it. Quick search at google showed me the way.

Well, to anyone who actually still has some old cards laying around, read the "flavor" text on the bottom of the 5th ed. version. That's why I chose that name. To those who don't. . .guess you'll never know!

Teehee

Sorry to post to this yet again, but just in case anyone wondered why I was playing under the name My_ASS!, I was at a friends house. I didn't want to play under such a silly name, thus all the name switching back and forth as we played! Somtimes we would forget to change the name back. He's a great player, he just has bad taste in names!

Your name does describe you.... good one!
Now if I could only hear how Kjeldorian is pronouced

Don't know if you know this but the 2nd part of Kjeldorian the "dorian" part is from a greek word from the name of a musical scale (or mode) known as the "dorian mode" and that scale is the most used one with rock guitar players. Shit without my dorian mode I sound like Buddy Holly on the guitar. P.... P.... Peggy Sue!

Kjel is pronounced "kell" and the rest you know. Scales, bars, phewy! I learned to play guitar on my own listening to The Wall on 8-track! Which really sucked because if you want to hear a part again, you're screwed. 8-tracks do not rewind! At least the one i had didn't. I use tableture sometimes but that's about it. Jam on Ktulu, music soothes the soul and expands the mind. Or was that LSD?
