====== Hnau ====== AH.com member, formerly known as Darkest90, Tenebrous Proficient and then Darkest. A Mormon, interested in future history and space technology. While still known as Darkest, he was ostracised by some members due to his enthusiastic attitude towards an imminent (real life) Ethiopia-Somalia war, and in fact, all wars in general. At least originally, he was also a self-declared communist. After Darkest conflicted with other members, he left the board to return under a new name and a new account--Hnau. Eventually, he ran afoul of other members of the community again, this time being banned. He soon [[Roster of the Repentant|apologized]], and was reaccepted as a member; at that time, this occurence was generally thought to be unprecedented, barring [[Hapsburg]]. (Interestingly, the Darkest account was still open until some point during [[Hnau]]'s banned period; at that time, [[IAN]] closed it, and "Darkest" remains banned to this day.) ---- ==== Works ==== Hnau is a quite prolific TL writer. During his "Darkest" account era, he was once advertising no less than five of them in his signature (!). They were: //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.net/discussion/showthread.php?t=42284|'Berwick' - Puritan World B]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.net/discussion/showthread.php?t=40172|Grippenberg]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=56215|A Jiang-less world]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.net/discussion/showthread.php?t=59881|The Races of Earth Timeline]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.net/discussion/showthread.php?t=49334|Sidney]]**// He is sort of infamous for starting numerous interesting TLs, but never really finishing or developing them. Nevertheless, he has made at least two longer, fairly detailed timelines: //**[[timelines:A Leninless World]]**// - Lenin dies early, the world changes. //**[[timelines:Bronze Age New World 2.0]]**// - A reimagining of Doug Muir's older, non-AH.com timeline //[[timelines:Bronze Age new World]]//. Of his shorter and unfinished timelines written during the "Hnau" account era, here's a sample: //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=316063|In the World of Sorrows: What if Assyria had sacked Jerusalem in 701 BCE ?]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=269878|An Alternate Whiskey Rebellion]]**// //**[[http://www.alternatehistory.com/discussion/showthread.php?t=262224|Intelligent Life on Venus]]**// ---- ==== In AH.com Fiction ==== In //**[[stories:AH.com The Series]]**//, he appeared as Darkest90 in minor walk-on roles, including in [[GBW]]'s [[stories:The Dome Factor]]. Darkest90 was [[DarkSlavik]]'s [[stories:Thai fighter]] wingman in //**[[stories:AH.com Wars]]**//. ---- ==== Navigation ==== **[[Member List]]**
