Bugbear Distinct from Other Goblinoids, Bugbear Name Their Offspring After Any Number of Things INTRODUCTION For some Dungeon Masters, one of the trickiest parts of running a campaign is coming up with consistent character names, especially on the fly. Every dungeon master has been in that situation at one point or another; the players have a longer conversation with Village Guard #3 than you anticipated, get invested in them, and want to know their name. This book takes that issue and extends it to some of the less common Dungeons and Dragons races which have been released through officially published material. Why Use This Book? Name generators found online are an invaluable tool for dungeon masters, but finding the right one can be very hit and miss. This book strives to have names which are consistently themed, flavorful, and able to be pronounced at a glance. Using This Book This book has two main table types to roll on: Percentile and Double-Sixty. Percentile tables contain 100 names all ready to go. Simply roll a percentile die or a pair of d10s and go to that point in the table to get your name. Double-Sixty tables have 120 entries divided into two 6x10 blocks. Each entry is one half of the name with the top block going first and the bottom block going second. Roll a d6 to determine the column and a d10 to find the row for the first half, then repeat for the second half. Finally, combine the two halves to get your name. Thank You! To everyone who bought this book, told their friends, or shared it with someone, your support is encouraging me to make bigger and better projects! Thank you! ~J.L.

  • Song of El Cid
    Eleventh Century Spain was fragmented into kingdoms and other domains on both the Christian and Muslim sides. These realms were continually at war among themselves. El Cid was a soldier- adventurer of this time whose legend endured through the centuries and became a symbol of the Christian Reconquest. This is his story as told by himself in the guise of a medieval troubadour – but with some present-day anachronisms creeping in. Song of El Cid I’m Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar; Prince Sancho was the one I served, my fame has spread to lands afar. my qualities were well observed, that’s why you’re sitting here with me so when he became the king in turn to listen to my soliloquy. I had but little left to learn about the matters of warfare, To Moors I’m known as El Sayyid and to him allegiance I did swear. (though I am no Almorávide). El Cid, the lord or leader who As his royal standard bearer, I is invincible in warfare too. was one on whom he could rely to wage the battles against his kin, To Christians I’m El Campeador, which it was paramount to win. now what that means you can be sure. I’m champion of the field of battle, For in the will of Ferdinand, reducing all my foes to chattel! he had divided all his land; to García - Galicia, to Elvira – Toro, Confuse me not with Charlton Heston, to Alfonso - León, to Urraca - Zamora. my story’s not just any Western. His culture centers round the gun, So Sancho was left with Castile alone but I have owned not even one.

La célebre Joyosa que con tanta belleza describe la primera can- ción de gesta francesa, El Cantar de Roldón: «Esta espada muda de reflejos treinta veces al día. Mucho podríamos hablar de la lanza con la que Nuestro Señor fue herido en la cruz. Carlos, por la gracia de Dios, posee su punta y la hizo engastar en la dorada empuñadura; y por este honor y por esta bondad la espada recibió el nombre de Joyosa. Los barones franceses no lo deben olvidar; por ella tienen el grito de guerra «Monjoya», y por ello ninguna gente puedeoponérsele»’. Dura, implacable, imposible de quebrantar como la voluntad oficial de qui- tarle a los madrileños uno de sus más importantes y venerados depósitos históri- cos, despojándoles de su Museo del Ejército, era la espada de Roldán. La famo- sa Durandarte que en vano trató de destruir el orgullo de la caballería andante, cuando se vio morir junto a los Doce Pares de Francia a manos de los españoles en la derrota de Roncesvalles, que tan sentidamente narra el cantar de gesta: «Roldán golpeó en una grisácea piedra y la hinde más de lo que se deciros. Cruje la espada, pero no se quiebra ni se rompe, sino que rebota hacia el cielo. Cuando el conde ve que no podrá romperla, muy dulcemente se lamenta...» «¡Ah, buena Durandarte malograda fuiste!..

  • GLADIUS (CUBIERTA).Cdr
    Gladius XXII, 2002, pp. 147-200 TWO SWORDS FROM THE FOUNDATION OF GIBRALTAR POR DAVID NICOLLE ABSTRACT - RESUMEN The two swords plus their associated acabbard and belt or baldric fragments which were found in Matin’s Cave, Gibraltar, date from the 12th century AD. Such dating is supporting the design to the objects themselves, their cultural-historical context, and their varied decoration. This evidence is also used to propose that the ensem- ble was all of Andalusian of North African origin, and as such represents an almost unique survival of 12th centu- ry western Islamic military equipment. Las dos espadas, junto con sus correspondientes vainas y restos de cinto o tahalí, halladas en Martin’s Cave (Gibraltar), deben fecharse en el siglo XII d.C. Esta datación se basa en la tipología de los objetos, en su contexto histórico-cultural, y en su variada decoración. Estos datos se emplean también para proponer que el conjunto es de origen Andalusí o Norteafricano, y que por tanto representan un caso casi único de preservación de equipo militar islámico occidental del s. XII. KEY WORDS - PALABRAS CLAVE Andalusian. Baldric. Belt-buckle. Bird motif. Bronze. Eagle motif. Enamel. Feathered decoration. Galloon. Jihad. Jinete. Maghrib. Mozarab. Mudejar. Murabitin.

Wien, 2014 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 057 327 Studienrichtung lt. Studienblatt: Individuelles Diplomstudium Keltologie Betreuerin: Dr Lizanne Henderson BA (Guelph) MA (Memorial) PhD (Strathclyde) 1 Acknowledgements First of all, I want to thank all my lecturers in history who introduced me to the basic theories and methods of historiography, but also to those providing lessons for Celtic Studies who made me aware of the importance of looking beyond the boundaries of one’s own discipline. Their interdisciplinary approach of including archaeology, linguistics, literature studies, cultural studies, and anthropology among other disciplines into historical research has inspired me ever since. Regarding this current study, I specially want to thank Dr. Lizanne Henderson who not only introduced me into the basic theories of methods of studying witchcraft and the supernatural during my time as Erasmus-student at the University of Glasgow, but also guided me during the writing process of this dissertation. Furthermore, I would like to thank the University of Vienna for giving me the chance to study abroad as Erasmus-student and also for providing me with a scholarship so that I could do the literature research for this dissertation at the University of Glasgow library and the National Archives of Scotland. Also, I thank Univ.-Prof. Mag. Dr. Melanie Malzahn for supporting me in acquiring this scholarship and helping me finding a viable topic for the dissertation, as well as Univ.-Doz.

  • Military Technology in the 12Th Century
    Zurich Model United Nations MILITARY TECHNOLOGY IN THE 12TH CENTURY The following list is a compilation of various sources and is meant as a refer- ence guide. It does not need to be read entirely before the conference. The breakdown of centralized states after the fall of the Roman empire led a number of groups in Europe turning to large-scale pillaging as their primary source of income. Most notably the Vikings and Mongols. As these groups were usually small and needed to move fast, building fortifications was the most efficient way to provide refuge and protection. Leading to virtually all large cities having city walls. The fortifications evolved over the course of the middle ages and with it, the battle techniques and technology used to defend or siege heavy forts and castles. Designers of castles focused a lot on defending entrances and protecting gates with drawbridges, portcullises and barbicans as these were the usual week spots. A detailed ref- erence guide of various technologies and strategies is compiled on the following pages. Dur- ing the third crusade and before the invention of gunpowder the advantages and the balance of power and logistics usually favoured the defender. Another major advancement and change since the Roman empire was the invention of the stirrup around 600 A.D. (although wide use is only mentioned around 900 A.D.). The stirrup enabled armoured knights to ride war horses, creating a nearly unstoppable heavy cavalry for peasant draftees and lightly armoured foot soldiers. With the increased usage of heavy cav- alry, pike infantry became essential to the medieval army.

  • El Ocaso De La Caballería Medieval Y Su Pervivencia Iconográfica En La Edad Moderna
    EL OCASO DE LA CABALLERÍA MEDIEVAL Y SU PERVIVENCIA ICONOGRÁFICA EN LA EDAD MODERNA THE DECLINE OF MEDIEVAL CHIVALRY AND ITS ICONOGRAPHIC SURVIVAL IN THE MODERN AGE POR CARMEN VALLEJO NARANJO Universidad de Sevilla. España La imagen del caballero y la caballería medieval ha quedado fi jada en nuestra memoria colectiva como un paradigma. Su radicación y proyección en la pervivencia de múltiples aspectos y ámbitos, hacen de ella un bastión ineludible de la antropología cultural europea. Pocas veces arte y sociedad están tan indisolublemente unidos. En la Edad Moderna, toda su cultura se encontraba plenamente vigente. La caballería medieval pervivió y transmutó, en lo estético, en la fuerza de una imagen sublimada. Artísticamente como tópico literario e iconográfi co. Y, en lo social, con esa nostalgia de unos valores personales, de una ética ancestralmente laica que enaltecidos produjeron ese cariz épico y estético que convirtió al caballero en el referente humano con el que toda sociedad sueña. Palabras clave: Arte, sociedad, caballero, caballería, iconografía. The image of the knight and medieval chivalry is set solid in our collective memory as a paradigm. Its reverberation and dispersion in the continuity of multiple aspects and ambiences make it an unavoidable bulwark of European cultural anthropology. Art and society are not often so fi rmly united. In the Modern Age, all its culture was fully effective. Medieval chivalry survived and became, aestheti- cally, the power of a sublime image, artistically, a topic of literature and iconography, and socially, together with that nostalgia for personal values, for ancestrally layman ethics which, when glorifi ed, gave rise to the epic and aesthetic aspect that made it the human reference society as a whole dreamed of.
