Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night One of the

Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night

One of the many secret brotherhoods in Ankh-Morpork, led by the Supreme Grand Master, later to be identified as Lupine Wonse, secretary to the Patrician. The Brethren summoned a dragon into Ankh-Morpork to overthrow the Patrician and restore the monarchy - they had picked their own monarch, of course.

They were made up of a circle of honest seekers after mystic truth whose misfortune it was to let Lupine Wonse run the group. A Supreme Grand Master with an agenda of his own is always going to be bad news in a secret society.

One of the brothers, Brother Fingers, stole a potent grimoire from the Library (indirectly the reason why the Librarian signed on as a Special) and so starting the events leading up to summoning the dragon.

The Illuminated and Ancient Brethren of Ee

The second house of similar design. The Brotherhood no longer meets in Treacle Street because the fretwork club now meets there every Thursday. It is confused by Brother Fingers with the actual secret headquarters of the Elucidated Brethren of the Ebon Night because the houses look very alike.

Ee is a long-lost city in the Klatchian desert.

Explorer's Club

One in the row of houses of similar design confusing Brother Fingers is the Explorer's Club. With its members trying to uncover the vast undiscovered, that is, not by the people already living there for centuries in societies having invented the wheel, a new governing system without parties and quantum mechanics to describe the state of the universe but the generally more described as civilized ones (although that is up for debate as well).
Basicly they are just trying to colour in the map with something more then 'Here be Dragons' or 'Don't eat the hairy bits'. One of the more notable members was Roderick Purdeigh.

Long overdue, the minifig of sir Terry Pratchett - The Creator. It has been in my collection and on the website since day one. But never featured to my shame.

The River Ankh also runs through my city, just like in Ankh-Morpork. Until now, however, mainly in straight pieces because it is easier to make them modular. That’s why I tried to pull it out of the right angles a bit.
The quay on this module has also been adapted even more than usual to visually break it up even further.

Cohen the Barbarian Also known as Ghenghiz Cohen,

Cohen the Barbarian

Also known as Ghenghiz Cohen, Cohen the Barbarian is the last and greatest of the barbarian heroes. He is over 90 years old (or 87 in The Light Fantastic, in which he declares "If I wash twenty yearsh younger...I'd be shixty sheven"), which just goes to show how good Cohen is at not dying. Known to be leader of the Silver Horde, a small group of similarly elderly barbarian heroes. Like Cohen himself, the Silver Horde is very good at not dying in this line of work.

Pontoon Bridge Another way to cross the River Ank

Pontoon Bridge

Another way to cross the River Ankh. Instead of putting in the effort to build a nice, neat bridge, just use what you have; a few old boats and some planks. And this is how you build a boat or pontoon bridge.

This gives just a little more variety in the arrangement of the river. Figuring out and trying out the turning and sliding mechanism took some time, but in the end it turned out sleak and simple.

Married to Count Notfaroutoe, Arthur Winkings, she wasn’t converted to a vampire by her husband so instead she wears fake pointy teeth. She sees to it that Arthur doesn’t play the vampire game with the younger ladies.

Count Notfaroutoe (Arthur Winkings)

The previous Count Notfaroutoe probably had been some old vampire in Überwald who had decided not to rise from his coffin; it is said that his castle was very ruined, anyway. His lawyer found the heir, the middle-aged Mr. Arthur Winkings, then wholesale fruit and vegetable merchant in Ankh-Morpork.

Dis-organiser Imp

The, usually very incompetent, imp powering the extremely annoying personal organiser commonly known as the Dis-organiser. The only known dis-organiser Mark 1 was owned by Samuel Vimes, and was completely incompetent. It claimed to have 15 functions, although it appeared that at least ten were apologizing for the useless manner in which it performed the others.

As usual the breakdown is at my website, link in the bio.

Surprised in Vlissingen with this tower. The remnants of the Westgate (Westpoort) with only the Prison Tower (Gevangenistoren) left. Dates back to the 15th century.

Another inspiration trip. A beautiful city, but one big tourist trap (chocolat, beer, waffles) as well.

When completing the footnotes from each book, you will of course also come across footnotes that are specifically about certain characters.
That’s why I started adding these footnotes to the character pages. I have no idea if there will be many, but I think it’s a nice addition.

The Golem Trust buys Golems from their owners, and

The Golem Trust buys Golems from their owners, and the bought Golems then buy their freedom from the Trust at cost. The freed Golems then work to contribute money to the Trust to buy other owned Golems. Adora Belle Dearheart runs the Golem Trust office, located in a particularly run-down section of town about a quarter mile from the Ankh-Morpork Post Office.

Their motto: By Our Own Hand, Or None. This organization has so far freed a few dozen Golems, extracting them from all sorts of deep holes underground or walled-off rooms.

The website Clacks Header was kind enough to post my story on how I came across the Discworld and decided to recreate it in LEGO.

The Clacks Header is maintained by Dan and is a collection of stories about the Discworld and its fans. He himself describes the site as follows: “A massively unofficial fan site to remember Sir Terry Pratchett.”

An Igor in his cellar, their natural #habitat. Igo

An Igor in his cellar, their natural #habitat. Igor is the common name of all male members of an extremely extended family in Überwald. Most Igors are professional servants to mad scientists or noble vampire families. Igors are also extremely good transplant surgeons.

First, and hopefully not the last, habitat for the stack at LowlugXL exhibition in Meijel (NLD), 27 August.

Een Igor in zijn kelder, hun natuurlijke habitat. Igor is de algemene naam van alle mannelijke leden van een zeer uitgebreide familie in Überwald. De meeste Igors zijn professionele dienaren van gekke wetenschappers of nobele vampierfamilies. Igors zijn ook buitengewoon goede transplantatiechirurgen.

Eerste, en hopelijk niet de laatste, habitat voor de stapel op de LowlugXL-beurs in Meijel, 27 augustus. @lowlug

CMOT Dibbler or Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler is a fix

CMOT Dibbler or Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler is a fixture in the street
life of Ankh-Morpork, where he is a perpetually failing salesman. He
gets fancy new ideas which never work. Fortunately, he always has a
backup trade to fall back on: selling Sausage inna bun, the sausage made
not of pork but rather of anything that’s been near a pig.

Breakdown at the website, link in bio.
