Talk:Tamerlane

Why would they have a motto? They can't even read. The whole POINT of being a barbarian is that you get to not worry about all that sissy heraldric bull-pucky those effeminate northmen concern themselves with. ;)

Heh, these guys are like only semi-barbarians at this point, threw in some flavor in the introduction to highlight how I suspect the more "traditional" barbarian tribes would view these guys. -gm

Also: the barbarians of the Ulan have a universal, symbolic written language created by Mikos Lygit, FWIW, even if only priests and higher-up mucky-mucks know it. -gm

Yup, I'm getting to that (the symbolic Mikos language). And they have a verbal history which is where the motto comes from. - Helen

Excellent. It's a pretty obscurely referenced tidbit, so I didn't know if you noticed it or not. absalom 15:55, 5 May 2011 (EDT)
