====== Saxifrage ======

===== Recruitment =====

I was recruited by [[etc|etc.]] (whose nom I finally learned, so I can give her proper credit!). 
I'd heard vaguely of the NPL for some years due to articles in //GAMES// and whatnot, but it was a 
conversation backstage during rehearsals for a Gilbert & Sullivan production that we were doing 
together that she pointed me in the right direction.




===== Recruits =====

  * [[Cramerica]]
  * [[Codex]]

Also Siri and Spellbound. I can also take some credit for [[Wesley]] and Arcs, through the Mystery Hunt.

===== Nom =====

My nom doesn't have much of a story behind it, except that I
thought "saxifrage" was a nifty word that people really ought
to hear more of. (It's a small flowering herb.) In one
version I have of the Victorian-era language of flowers, it
represents "affection," which is rather nice. And it derives
from a Latin root meaning "rock-breaking," which is rather
evocative. (Of what, I'm not sure...) Mostly, though, I just
liked it.
