Gro is from (and living in) Germany, 30-ish, male.
My handle is a reference to a character from the fantasy novel The Worm Ouroboros (1922) by E. R. Eddison. I am kind of embarassed by the self-given aristocratic title, but so far I could not muster the resolve to pick a new handle, and that's why things are still as they are.
An aficionado of the Icelandic Sagas. Mostly active on Literature pages.
