Biography: Norman's father was a cleat maker. As was his father's father, as was his grandfather's father. So it was with some contention from his family that Norman because a sailor instead. While the making of cleats was a safe and dependable job, Norman had never understood how someone could be content with such a monotonous existence. Sure, there had been the occasional order for an ornate bit of carving or gilding, and there was some skill involved in casting or forging larger gear, but mostly they just made plain old wooden cleats.

My name is Noremac. I once had a pet duck named Noremac that turned out to be a real bastard. I am not sure why I continued to use the name as my internet handle. I enjoy all sorts of writing and fell in love with the sandbox style of roleplaying when I found TFS a 6 years back. I use to focus on playing antagonists to spice the game up a little. I tried to play with the philosophy that the bad guy should always lose, but come back stronger, though I am not sure how good a job I did :\ I'm planning on living a tamer existence on this forum seeking adventure and building off of plot lines, but might create a villain if and when it is called for.
