Apparently I’d be a large glowing ball of glass filled with acid. Perhaps I’m like Lumiere from Beauty and the beast then? But without the french accent of course… Don’t drop me or handle me roughly I suppose.

I certainly can! Metal is what Metalunans make catalogues out of!

And don’t try to hang that “We call him Neutron because he’s so positive!” thing on me, either. They named that cat before I got there!

I am a very cold spot in the north of Scotland…where I have never even been! (How would that work? I guess I would be there then)

Hmmm…my user name is a combination of the infamous Oakbrow Farwalker, Raiding Druid of Karana, and Elminster, Archmage of the Forgotten Realms. Oakie used to solo dragons, and Elminster walked through Hell itself kicking ass and taking names. Sooo…yeah, I’m good.

In the morning, I am part of a complete and delicious breakfast. In the mid-day, I tease and comb my facial hair. In the afternoon, I write eight-legged essays and drink coffee with Noel Chomsky. At night, Cubans make sandwiches out of me.

In short, people gon’ eat me.

I have lost a lot of weight and gained the power of life and death over rodents and an annoying raven sidekick.
