The Heroes Enigmatic Corner

I created this thread for everyone who is at least half as bored as I am, and who enjoys crosswords and similar.

I thought I'd make a small enigmatic game. If you're interested, here are the rules.

Each round consists of two crosswords. I'll make one (rather simple, but hey, I'm doing the best I can with my spare time) crossword per week here, so one round lasts two weeks. Every round has a different theme (Heroes 3, Heroes 5, Heroes Community etcetera).
To join, simply post here to tell me you're in. There can be an unlimited amount of players.
When you solve a crossword, HCM me with your solutions (eg. "Across: 1-Squire, 2-Vladimir, 3-Michael Jackson" etc.) to earn a certain number of Johnny Depps.

Scoring is as follows: the first five persons to send me their solutions get, in order, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 Johnny Depp. Apparently, whoever has the most Johnny Depps at the end of the round wins and gets a cannibal.

The goal is to get as much cannibals as possible.

So who's in?
This is the main post, expect to see score tables etcetera here.

Without further ado, to get all of this started, here's the first crossword.

ROUND 1: HEROES 5



ACROSS
1   A creature whose name is the same as the name of one of the rare good thrash metal bands.
5   The magic school hosting the Earthquake spell.
6   A trait unique to Inferno creatures.
12   The only thing with teal beard in Heroes universe.
13   The first Queen of the Dark Elves.
15   The wizards' favourite way of public transportation.
16   The main dwarven bad guy.
17   The only sword left-handed heroes can use.
18   The Heroes 5 equivalent for Aragorn.

DOWN
1   Academy grail structure.
2   The Heroes universe champion of jumping and getting killed.
3   The person who proves that dwarves indeed can be flaming ninjas.
4   The only necromancer that at least tries to make zombies useful.
7   The resource provided by the Necropolis Resource Silo.
8   The building (so to speak) that boosts Goblin population. For some reason.
9   During the week of this animal, all statues must be cleaned daily.
10   Sinitar's hero specialty.
11   The creature after which Isabelle named the new human empire.
14   The immortal, winged proof that people with emo haircuts don't actually have a gender.

Enjoy And remember, don't post solutions here, but HCM them to me.

Well there is this thing called the "lack of interest"... Apparently, stuff tends to be less fun if no one's interested in it :\

For now only 2 people sent me their solutions and that sort of kills the point of the Johnny Depp scoring system. We need at least 5 people to get this thing going.

But Dagoth and mamga said they were in too. Why can't we presurize them? Mildly, of course.

Well I said mildly; that means sending a note like "participance requested or Namus will have ye" instead of sending DarkShadow directly to them
