Noren is now safely ruled by myself, and the orcs have been taught their place. There being no accidental means of entering Noren (all its shores being impassible mountainous cliffs), we feel it is reasonable to require anyone wishing to enter Noren to seek prior permission. Persons failing to do so will be considered hostile, insane, or terminally rude and dealt with in an appropriate manner. -- Richard Rumbold [m1e] =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Eastern Torba Bacor is under the care, tutelage and protection of the Dukes of Eastern Torba Bacor.

It's generally the guys who did something really good, but still didn't win a Nobel prize. If, however, you refer to the NOBLE list, it stands for "behind".
