Which Atlantian Knights are the 7 Dwarves?!?
Poster: David KUIJT <kuijt@umiacs.umd.edu>
Sorry, I read the title of Cassandra's recent message, and in my
overworked mind I immediately translated it to the following (diseased)
idea:
Which Atlantian Knights are the exemplars of the individual 7 dwarves? In
other words, assign the Atlantian Chivalry to the following characters,
and justify your choice.
(Let's see if I can remember all the dwarves...)
Grumpy
Sleepy
Dopey
Sneezy
Happy
Doc
and Thorin Oakenshield. I can't remember the seventh. Lucky? Stinky?
Horny? Goofy? (no, that was a dog...) I just can't recall...
Note that altitude is not a determining factor, so Thorbrandr and Galmr
don't get off easy here. In fact, I'd like to nominate Galmr for Grumpy
-- after all, he had a saga written in his first reign describing him as
Grim-visaged Galmr. Although Gyrth can glower with the best of them, so
he is a strong candidate. Maybe Amalric for Happy. Doc is clearly
Thorvaldr, even though he has moved to Buffalo -- he is often called
Doctor Pain. He's still got squires and ex-squires in the area, so he
counts.
