Just noticed this. Could they be twins?

Me and Harvard immortalized, as we argue over skype?

I'd like to think of it like that.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_twins

In terms of setting continuity, and the proximity of BM to Tolkien,
I would suggest these two, or similar characters:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hengest_and_Horsa

Combined with this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcis_(gods)



In official Blackmoor continuity, I would probably suggest the Snider brothers.

In the LFC continuity, Karl and Dirken. :wink:

Actually, could be the Great Svenny in his divine form.

IF they put as much thought into it as this: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fer_Diad

Great train of thought Rafe, but perhaps not the Snider brothers

"There have been two other players (Bob Meyer end Richard Snider) that have reached 20th level (getting them a free dinner, pat on the back and a retired character) but they are gone to a higher plane." FFC 80:53 - Svenson's Freehold.

Sounds reasonable, as well, though I frankly don't think the writers knew that. :wink:

But, as a generic twin warrior deity, why not? Could well work. :)
