SOMETHING STIRS
-
Well, it really is very early days, but nonetheless. it does look as though you will have something to talk about in 2008, and perhaps something to beguile you in 2009.

I hope it's good news for you too, Mr. Child, and look forward to learning more.
you'll forgive me if I remain merely cautiously optimistic
I can't help noting that you can't spell 'optimistic' without 'tim'.

He said at the end of the Knightmare VR pilot that he'd "be waiting in the dark", and so he has been. Sounds like he found a throat sweet in there too.
(I really hope that in light of these developments and those to come, Illusion can find the time to make proper updates to knightmare.com, with or without the community's help as he sees fit.)

When Illusion has time to do site upgrades, the Orc will be ready to become the site news announcer.
His name is Garstang.
To find out some of the ways he can work, open the link above once more, and when the speech is finished, click on products, and then Flashnews.
However - none of this is very much to do with what's stirring.

Maybe they were going for the whole "Keith Richards" look
Whatever could you be referring to? Please, let's not turn this topic from 'Something Stirs' into 'Someone's Stirring'...
His name is Garstang.
Should he therefore have a Lancastrian accent?
If Garstang is a character named after a place, I wonder how many of Knightmare's places are named after people. A lot of them happen to be surnames, such as Vanburn, Dunkley, Wolfenden and Gore.
I still say he's an orc.
The KMVR Goblin codenamed Beveryafraid is now an orc named Garstang, however there isn't necessarily a conflict in that. In Series 3, Golgarach asked Scott's team what goblins are called in Tolkien, and the answer he sought was orcs; so maybe they're synonymous in the Knightmare realm too. Or perhaps when Lord Fear received his latest batch of goblins from Malapith, he decided to rebrand them as orcs in order to cash in on the success of the Lord Of The Rings films.

Solving this mystery may be beyond you so I'll help, although you're probably not going to believe this.....
Whilst teaching an artificial intelligence that it was an Orc/Goblin, I named it Beveryafraid (after myself).
However, as I taught it and it got cleverer, it wanted to know who was teaching it?
As I'd made it suspicious of humans, I told him that his teacher was another Orc called Garstang.
Sometime later - and perhaps because I was inexperienced in teaching an AI, he got confused, and decided HIS name was Garstang.
Rather than argue with him, I gave in and continued teaching him as Garstang.
..told you no one would believe it.
