Love is in the air... even in WFRP? Check out these rather special lonely hearts and let us know who takes your fancy over on our Facebook and Twitter pages. Perhaps you're an AAH or WTRTAWFO ?

Kemperbad Lonely Hearts Column

It is that time of the year when all hearts turn to considerations of love and passion, and so it often is in the Old World as well. It is a fact not widely known that, from 2405-2420 IC, the matchmaker Johan Weber in the town of Kemperbad did maintain a column for those individuals whose had trouble meeting other like minded individuals.

Below are a small selection of such texts, recovered from the remains of Johan’s printworks after it was burned to the ground by a mob in an action the town council later characterised as both ‘justified’ and ‘overdue.’

Abbreviations Guide

As it is both difficult and frustrating in the extreme work the plates of this Dwarf-cursed machine, here are the abbreviations of the most common expressions used, that we might make use of them in shortening all submissions henceforth.

Johan Weber, Editor

WLTM - Would Like to Meet; WAVTM - With a View to Marriage; HST - Has Several Teeth; MLO - Most Limbs Original; TNOE - Typical Number of Eyes; AAH - Altdorfer at Heart; WTRTAWFO - Willing to Relocate to Area with Fewer Orcs.
