 Rognvald is a member of the board who joined on the 13th of September, 2011. He was formerly known as "Enclave". Under the Enclave name, he was mostly known to hang out in the Shared Worlds section of the board, with a few scattered trips to the Writer’s Forum to post fiction. Now, however, Rognvald is most active in Pre-1900, and rarely pokes his head into Shared Worlds.
-He is a Mormon from the state of Utah. His political views are unknown, but most likely moderate, as his Grassroots Party during a short-lived campaign in Shared Worlds shared characteristics of both conservative and liberal beliefs. His response on the “I'm Trying to Make a Better Political Compass Thing” in Chat did not clarify his beliefs at all, either, leaving the general consensus that he is a moderate.
+He is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints from the state of Utah. He self describes his politics as “slghtly right-of-center”, but is generally burned out with the whole process. Rognvald has had two hiatuses from the board; one was a two year fishing trip from 2013 to 2015, while he was serving an Latter-Day Saint mission; the other was from late 2015 to mid-2018, when he was caught up with life.
 Currently he is working on his Pre-1900 timeline “The Legacy of St. Brendan”, which has been recieved with surprising acclaim. He won the Turtledove Award for “Best Medieval Timeline” and “Best POD” for his efforts with it.

 “The Legacy of St. Brendan: A History of the Western Hemisphere, from 512 to the Present Day”: The Irish monk St. Brendan is blown off course by a storm and lands in the New World centuries before any Viking. A succession of Irish fur trappers, Briton princelings, and Nordic warlords compete for control, while the Native Americans develop resistance to European disease and gain European technology. Won the 2019 Turtledove for Best Medieval Timeline and Best Point of Difference. (In Progress)
+“The Essays: A Counterfactual Series”: An experimental effort, comprised of brief (five pages double-spaced, generally) counterfactual scenarios, with each essay in a series dealing with different facets of the same event. (Ongoing)
