I'm Hikaro. That's not my real name, but it's all you guys need to know. I'm from the United States, and I stumbled upon The Lost Ring from my Esperanto learning site, Lernu. It's my first ARG, and I'm loving it.
I'm an English major and my favorite literary device is allusion. Thus, you can see why FtLR has some extra appeal to me, stuff like Ariadne's name make me feel warm and fuzzy inside. I'm also a grammar Nazi but correct use of punctuation will be my Kryptonite forevermore.
I'm a beginner at Esperanto but I did know enough to know that their tattoos were talking about "the lost ring."
If you're curious about how I ended up with Hikaro as a screenname, it was not derived from the Japanese root hikar- meaning "light", although I absolutely LOVE that it also has that meaning. I actually derived it from one of my conlangs, from the words for "good" and "army" and originally used it as my screenname for the Thardferr text-based strategy game. You may have known me from my kingdoms of Parabola, East Kahar, Forest of the Seven Mages, and Forest of Light. I was also semi-active in the forums there before I left to get a life.
I use Hikaro as my screenname for geeky pursuits wherever possible, including (but not limited to):
- Unfiction forums (just joined)
- FtLR Official Forum
- BoardGameGeek
- Lernu.net
- Esperanto blog
I'm not the best at mystery solving, but I hope to make good contributions, and if nothing else, help organize others' findings in this Wiki.
