Necroscope Knowledge 2005

[kenny]

Is this a question or a fact?

[Helmet Head]

SD is refering to Joeann's question about it being necro related, which of course his question was as it's one of the Keogh shorts from weird hero's...

As for Kenny's question I would say Atawei (cant remeber the spelling) although I could be wrong as he also had another guide after her who led him on the last leg of his journey under the desert.
But his bloody name escapes me for the moment

[sdkdmd]

can "The Helm" come out and play?
it's been awhile.

septais was the one who guided Nathan

[kenny]

Sd strikes again, is there no end to this man's knowlegde of all things Lumley related.

[sdkdmd]

which Wamphyri Lord uses the Moobius strip as his sigil?

[FrostD]

Maglore the Mage? And Myself of course.

[joeann2005]

sorry Sdkdmd. my head was all over the place (actually abit drunk!)the other night! ;)

[joeann2005]

What are there more stories of the nercroscope in other books? (why was'nt I told!)What is wierd heros'?


PS sorry for going off topic! :confused:

[sdkdmd]

you are correct FrostD

Yes Joeanne, Harry Keogh necroscope and other weird heros (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0765310600/104-4664691-5685547)

[joeann2005]

thanks, I really did'nt know about the other stories apart from the 13 books!

[FrostD]

OK, I'll have a question tomorrow.

[FrostD]

Who was the Lure for getting Big Jimmy?

[sdkdmd]

i know Harry lumped him him up with a little help.

[FrostD]

Not Harry.

[kenny]

BJ's moon children?

[FrostD]

Be more specific. There is litterally a line that says " _______ was the lure".

[Hubris]

Margaret?

[sdkdmd]

Zahanine is the lure today

[joeann2005]

i cant get this as I've only got the lost years vol 2 but I'll take a guess anyway was it wee john? from inverdruie? :confused:

[ November 18, 2005, 04:54 AM: Message edited by: joeann2005 ]

[FrostD]

The Beautifull Zahanine was the Lure.

Go ahead Big SD

[sdkdmd]

how many Thyre colonies did Nathan visit and what was the name of the last one?

[joeann2005]

i'll take a guess, is it 6 & the last was rivers rush :rolleyes:

[sdkdmd]

you can more then double the number of colonies and river rush is a Thyre mausoleum

[joeann2005]

was his last stop Ten Springs Spurting? i really cant remember without getting the book out! how many colonies there were!

[joeann2005]

by the way sdkdmd happy 1000th posting! grin.gif

[sdkdmd]

you got the colony.

ok,here's a clue-
the last colony minus five plus the last colony

[DC 1]

I thought SaltStone Sump was the last. See, I must be getting old now smile.gif :(

Ten Springs was "the last stop to their current location". He then went on to Place under the orange crags I think.

[ November 22, 2005, 11:54 AM: Message edited by: DC ]

[joeann2005]

16 colonies? i cant find the book!its in the back of my drawer somwhere so I'm guessing! :cool:

i dont think he did visit Place Under Orange Crags, DC but I'm not sure lol!

[sdkdmd]

im not sure which one it was DC, i didn't catch it until after i comfirmed the answer.
ten springs was the last one before Septais, his guide, left him, and on top of that , it thru me off on the number of colonies there were.
i thought it was 15.

i will have to investigate.

so i will pass this on to joeann

[DC 1]

As for the original answer of Rivers Rush. I think you hit the nail on the head there Joanne. Rivers Rush is a colony and it's mausoleum is called The Hall of Endless Hours.

Maybe slightly misleading if you just look in the Companion.

[joeann2005]

i hav'nt got the Companion, thats why I'm getting really confused. What is that about DC?

[joeann2005]

sorry for going off topic again! blush.gif

[DC 1]

The companion says Rivers Rush is a mausoleum but also states that Hall of Endless Hours is the Mausoleum in Rivers Rush ?

The book tends to make you think the same but the way I read it was R R is a colony.

Down to your interpretation i suppose smile.gif

[joeann2005]

so whos' right sdkdmd? :rolleyes:

[sdkdmd]

DC is right about what it says it the compaion. when i get time im going to check
but next question is yours

[joeann2005]

cheers sdkdmd i'll have to think up a good question for tomorrow ok! ;)

[joeann2005]

what number is jake cutters' name using the hebrew system that brian used in the lost years? tongue.gif

[joeann2005]

i cant think up a good question! yous lot know it all! :confused:

[sdkdmd]

you be surprised of what you think people will know but don't.

[sdkdmd]

well, it seems i was way off with the colony thing. there was more like 20 colonies that Nathan visited and the last one was Rivers Rush.

i guess this proves my previous post.

a list to come later.

[Helmet Head]

This I beleive is Jake Cutter in numbers 1125 364452 10 letters that total 33, what they mean???

Haven't got a bloody clue, I'll have to ask Nostradamus...

[joeann2005]

the helm has got it as its the same number of harry keogh! grin.gif

[joeann2005]

over to you the helm!

[NecrozDarksoul]

I have one. Name 2 Lieutenants of Nestor other than Grig or Zahar.

[sdkdmd]

sorry Necroz, but you must answer a question to ask a question

[joeann2005]

wheres the Question the helm? blush.gif

[Helmet Head]

I'll think of one tonight and get it up

[Helmet Head]

Who was Karl Galich???

[Helmet Head]

Who was Karl Galich???

[Helmet Head]

Who was Karl Galich???

[DC 1]

Wasn't he one of the top men in Perchorsk.

Absolutely bonkers serial killer who used an axe

[topol_sheap]

nice answer, I expecially like
Absolutely bonkers serial killer who used an axe

[Helmet Head]

Is the right answer, over to you my man...

[DC 1]

What were the names of Nathans Nephews

[Helmet Head]

Blaze, Grinner and Doc

Also for a sneaky bonus round point there was also Bairn Berea who was Nestor's child to Glina.
Fair enough he was burnt to death as a baby but he still counts as a nephew all be it unknown to Nathan...not to sure about the name though but it's the one they give in the companion...

[DC 1]

Yup, That be the ones

[Canker]

It's "Bairn" slang for baby?
Absolutely correct about the baby being Nathan nephew but I don't remember ever reading about a name

[joeann2005]

i dont think it had a name

[joeann2005]

& yes it is slang for 'baby' ;)

[Helmet Head]

Yeah I know that, but in the companion thats the name given Berea, Bairn. I assumed this was because there was a lack of a name but when you assume it can make an ass out of u and me...

I'll return soon with a question...

[joeann2005]

Hurry up then!!! ;)

[Helmet Head]

Who's blood helped in the final stages of Radu's resurgence???

[FrostD]

I'm going to go ahead and say "Garth"

[kenny]

Harry?

[sdkdmd]

one of his creations

[Helmet Head]

FrostD gets it, it was of course Garth Treevalin's blood that Radu fed upon as he rose up from his amber tomb...

Your go man...

[FrostD]

Name all the heads of E-branch.

[sdkdmd]

Gormley, Kyle, Clark, Wellesly, Trask

[FrostD]

I do believe you are correct sir.

[sdkdmd]

"The Aerie"

What and where is it?

[DC 1]

It's a hotel in Krassos.

It's probably a pub somewhere as well smile.gif

[sdkdmd]

Yes Sir, that is the correct answer, you may proceed with the next question.
Thank You for playing, stop by again.

[DC 1]

Who was the Lord of Trollmanse?

[joeann2005]

[DC 1]

Aye, that it was

[joeann2005]

[joeann2005]

Brian mentions shatian as being 'the great ?'

[topol_sheap]

"the lord of liars"

(how about "the great big fat liar" grin.gif or the "the great pretender" grin.gif )

[Helmet Head]

When Harry stayed at the Hotel Adrano, what was he doing???

[CGGorman]

Drinking Ouzo?

[sdkdmd]

planning his raid on the vault of the Francezcis

[Helmet Head]

Although I'd love to say YES he was drinking ouzo, unfortunately John's word for word answer from the companion is the correct answer...

How do I know it's word for word????

Well it's exactly where I got the question from old boy grin.gif

Your go John boy, make it a good-un...

[ January 09, 2006, 05:57 PM: Message edited by: The Helm ]

[sdkdmd]

i started to change up the wording then I thought, who am i fooling, not The Helm.

[sdkdmd]

Dr James Anderson.... how is he connected to the Francezci brothers?

[Helmet Head]

Wasn't he the hypnotist that did a number on Harry, and then was kidknapped by by the Francezi thugs for this connection looking for info on HK.
Then they cut him up into bits oh so slowly just to make sure he was telling them everything before sending the remainder of his carcass floating down the river...

[sdkdmd]

That's the connection.
Back to you.

[Helmet Head]

I would post a question here but I've freshened up the Necro Knowledge and moved it here... http://www.brianlumley.com/cgi-bin/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=24;t=000209
