Pretty much neutral, like Sweden (or is it Switzerland?), only without the company of gorgeous tall blondes.
If I had to name something that I am a Lord of, it would be Good Taste, but then that would be rather misleading as I am neither British or French, :P
To quote a certain dog, whose name escapes me at the moment, from Conan Obrian's show, "I kid, I kid!"

(I was very domestic last night - peanut butter pies (two of 'em) and chocolate-white chocolate-caramel cookies. Work potlucks are fun!)
High Marshall of all things Macademia . . .
Implying something about us nuts who make a living teaching college students? ;)
Bard of Asia!
I'd challenge you to a musical duel for this title, except all I can do is sing old Deng Lijun songs at karaoke bars, and you'd surely win out with your theatrical performances of the Monkey King gobbling up Laozi's peaches of immortality. I'll have to recite a few lines of Li Bai and Su Dongpo and claim the title Poet Laureate of Asia instead.
Fugitive from the Beijing Secret Police!
Ah! But can you claim the titles Grave Rubber of Slippery Rock Village, Missionary Witch-Doctor to the Black Bone Barbarians, Foreign Devil Evader of the Wande Township Police (all three of them), Eater of Insect Larvae, Drinker of Poisoned Baijiu, Interviewer of Dead Chieftains, Witness to Unspeakable Sacrifices, and Puller of Horseless Carriages up muddy slopes?
I didn't think so. :-P
(Guess I'll have to go to GenCon next year so we can swap China stories over a bottle of Erguotou. If I can find some.)
The Koga isn't really lord of anything, more of a powerful creature that awakens every once in awhile to post something random, like some kindof chaotic neutral Cthulhu.

I thought I had some interesting adventures in the Middle Kingom - makes experience pales - I bow to the wonder that is you.
Out of curiousity what do you teach and where?

I was thinking of a drunken karaoke version of "Heat of the Moment" as a qualifier for Bard of Asia.

Kyr, if I ever run into you at GenCon I'll swap Persian Gulf stories with you--you'll probably have me beat, since most of mine are second hand stories about sailors getting social diseases or otherwise damaging their reproductive organs at Habib's House of Hummers in Dubai. That and nightmare stories about what the yardbirds at Dubai Drydocks did to our #2 Ship's Service Turbo Generator.
I have to admit that I'm playing the same game Bilbo played with Smaug in inventing those titles--there's some truth behind each, and a good yarn, but a bit of boastful exaggeration, too.
I'm teaching Chinese History at Hamilton College, so I guess I should add a couple more titles to my growing list:
Keeper of the Secret of the Emperor's Elixir of Immortality
Professor of Arcana Incognita Sinologica
and Peruser of the Sublime Rites of Ancestor Dumu
(If any of you figures out the meanings of all three of these titles, I'll share a shot of Erguotou with you at GenCon).

Ugh! Drunken karaoke! Reminds me of when my ex-girlfriend in Kunming had a couple of bachelors renting the apartment in the adjacent highrise--same floor but different building nearby. They had a karaoke machine in their apartment and serenaded the neighborhood nightly with their horrible drunken performances. My girlfriend dubbed the building Lu Jiao Lou, which translates as "Tower of Braying Donkeys."
I can still carry a tune when I'm drunk, so I think you'd be in third place, Daigle.
Now that we're all kind of established, uh, when are we going to try and merge into some huge Voltron-like superbeing? Even though, with the internet connections and all, we may end up just melding into a football stadium sized technology baby like at the end of Akira.
I nominate F2K to be the Tech baby's hind end...;)
Now, now, I don't know about that. I think Heathansson, FH and I would (rightly) end up as the grotesque monstrosity's snarky hind quarters, sharing real estate with the other wise-acres.

Watch it there, hippie! Everyone knows I would make a far better spleen or appendix! I'll leave "bringing up the rear" to those who are more qualified.

Too late! It has already happened!!! And soon, very soon now, your player characters will be able to join this amalgam as well....
Hahahahaha!
