This guy was the main deck builder of Team :time last war.

Even though that does not completely make up for the fact that he lives on the wrong side of Canada, it's certainly helpful in events like these...

Dragon's Demesne

Dragons are... dragons! :)  And a demesne is a realm or domain or kingdom or whatever.  I like fantasy, and I first saw the word demesne in "The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever" by Stephen Donaldson.  (one of the best fantasy works I've ever read, and I've read countless books)  I thought it had a nice ring to it.  So the name means 'dragon's kingdom' or something like that.  It's old English, and Donaldson used a -lot- of obscure or obsolete words in those books, which is part of why they were so awesome.

Alright, thanks a lot. English being my second language I don't quite master it as good as I'd like to.

It's okay.  Most native English speakers don't know what 'demesne' means either; it's really obscure.

From dictionary.com

deĀ·mesne
   /dɪˈmeɪn, -ˈmin/ Show Spelled[dih-meyn, -meen] Show IPA
noun
1.
possession of land as one's own: land held in demesne.

3.
land belonging to and adjoining a manor house; estate.
4.
the dominion or territory of a sovereign or state; domain.

I like your literature tastes.

I speak great English (I believe) and I didn't know this.  Dragon's domain.  Actually a really awesome name now that it's translated.
My signature is too messy to read >.<
