Biography
Before joining TWC in late December 2005 Atterdag had been lurking for some time - mostly watching the Ran No Jidai mod forum, a team he would later join as a modder.
Relatively early he started posting historical articles in the Vestigia Vetustatis. These posts caught the attention of the Helios editor King Henry V and in early September 2006 he offered Atterdag civitateship. Unfortunately KHV decided to leave TWC shortly after - leaving the patronizing process in the hands of imb39 who would act as Atterdag's patron until spring 2007.
Although he passed the Civitate vote 6 - 0 the badge was not awarded on time due to the dire events of the Staff Rebellion.
During these turbulent times Atterdag devoted himself completly to the defence of Staff and opposistion towards Archer's new moderating team. A case he would continue six months later at the arrival of Besim.
After some time he was awarded the Opifex award together with the rest of the Chivalry TW team for the work on the Chivalry mod for RTW. During Søren's reign as Chief of Moderating Atterdag was ratified by the curia as junior moderator of the TW section and Vestigia Vetustatis - a rank he holds till this day alongside the ranks as Scriptor Scriptori, Patrician, Artifex and Opifex.
Atterdag is a great fan of comics by Hergé, Hugo Pratt, Tardi, René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo. As a result he has used persons from Hugo Pratt's comic Corto Maltese in his avatars and sigs for some time now. Besides this love Atterdag is also very much into other forms of art. Favorite painters include Matisse, Magritte, Lichtenstein, Warhol, Mucha, Max Beckmann, Monet and Van Gogh. Which should prove that his favotire styles are: Art Nouveau, Pop Art, Impressionism, Expressionism and Surrealism. His musical taste is varied and includes bands such as The Smiths, Bloc Party, the Postal Service, Death Cab for Cutie, Joy Division, Simon & Garfunkel and many, many more.
