Topic: How to pronounce Druchii?
Replies: 46
Views: 5635

I pronounce it as a Druch-ii, the first half starting off as you would pronounce 'Drew' and the 'ch' having a slight 'sh' lisp to it as you work into the 'ii'. If you work too hard on this, you end up saying Dru-shy, and that's pretty close, but I keep the initial 'ch' fairly harsh so that people ca...

The plan goes off, not quite smoothly, but well enough to remain somewhat of a success. Maleuth, doing his part as Lex had pushed upon him to the best of his ability is...not disappointed, no, but somewhat doubting of his abilities following the endeavor. As he replays the events, the death of the D...

OOC: I reason in two directions. Druchii are no fools, and bravery comes awfully close to stupidity most of the time. And that Malekith, and other ruling lords, have little use for heroes standing out and rallying the masses.

Australians are to sporting as Koreans are to Starcraft. I once saw the look of a gentlemen who lost his sponsor game in a gaming documentary and, well, you could see in his face and his eyes that for him it wasn't about having fun with a videogame anymore. Play to have fun peoples. Play to have fun.

Firstly, I would just like to say that I love the theme with your army.

Oh, by all means, go ahead and indulge your love of sports, we won't stop you.

Why would they say your mad for doing Dark Elves as a first army though? Looking at it, your average Druchii warrior is as strong and tough as any human warrior, but faster and better trained with a generation of experience behind them. Think about that for a moment.

We have a cricket team...? Seriously though, I'm not that big on the sports, my father used to drag me along to the cricket each year for one day test matches and I'd either pull a hat down and catch a few Z's, or just read a book.

If I remember correctly, the male Sorcerer was accepted into WaR after they sent off the instructions of what a Sorceress would look like to the art crew, and forgot to mention that they were female and female only.

OOC: Heresy! Our Australian summers are perfect just as they are, the sweat and melting and grass catching on fire are all just side effects of our inability to comprehend the awesome that is summer!

Maleuth curtly nods to each of the party members in turn, accepting their greeting and taking note of their words, induced by the effects of the liquor or not.
