The letter is I.
The rules are here. If I am stumped, someone else must answer your stumper within 72 hours for you to earn a general. The forbidden category is European Sports. |

The word "here" doesn't link to anything.
Methinks you have an unfair advantage over the other players, not telling them the rules. :U
Also, are you a god whose two-letter name is shared by a moon of Jupiter? _________________ My logic puzzle blog |

I never saw the movie (Me, Myself & Irene) but I know he was in it. The only other character who comes to mind was named Ventura. |

Correct answer, wrong reason. Haven't watched the episode yet, but he has connections to Ithaca College, and visited here a few times last year  |

I know that this is a character from Piers Anthony' Xanth books. A couple of stray neurons are blinking the name Irene, though that might easily be my first indication of Alzheimer's.
Edit: By "first," of course, I mean the first one that I remember.

*sorry. This is a pointless jokey reference. If you know what it refers to, then good for you. If you don't, then it'd take far, far too long to explain. _________________
