Svartalf is a self-styled scholar with wide knowledge of many subjects, though often broader than deep, which he regularly tries to improve.

The history culture and lanGuages of celts, particularly Gaels, but I've had good exposure to the culture of Brittany
Norse culture and mythology, From the beginnings to the late 14th century, when the original culture became diluted in christianity, and Icelandic culture dwindled as the island came under Dane domination and became a backwater.
Precolombian history of Middle and South America.
Traditional and Folk music of Western Europe, particularly Irish, scottish, and that from my Ancestral Brittany and some less Celtic French stuff. I also enjoy traditional music from Scandinavia, Finnland, and south America, including even some bluegrass
Oh, yeah, I forgot... I'm rather interested in the Occult, probably as as form of mythology, since I've never found any proof that any of the books, traditions, groups and individuals purporting to possess para natural powers or to have truck with supernatural beings (demons, angels and whatnot) and/or, to be able to empower interested/deserving parties with those and/or power over the same ever had any truth to their assertions.
That will be all for the time, I'll complete this as inspiration comes.
