― Gimli, The Last Debate

Hi there! I'm Ederchil, I'm 32 years old and from Groningen, The Netherlands (don't you call that Holland). The name Ederchil - I've been using it for a couple of years now - is a rough translation of my first name, Olof - "descendant of forefathers".

• User:Ederchil/Sandbox2 - because one was not enough
• User:Ederchil/Sandbox3 - because I should really finish any of the above two
• User:Ederchil/Templates - various test-templates
• User:Ederchil/Orcs PiA
• User:Ederchil/Sandbox4 - Blank slate; or, I'm really getting fed up with IMDb
• User:Ederchil/Full cast - a (not so) full cast of The Lord of the Rings (film series). Outdated, unsourced and unformatted, thus unreliable.
