I got many hits for him and he, but it clearly wasn’t a typical biography. God and ancient got me there. Thankfully it was an obvious choice because articles about the ancient world usually stump me.
Also 26, high five.
I also got he/him/his early, and I could see it was a four or five letter word. My first guess was actually ‘Bono,’ lol. ‘Religion’ got a few hits and I tried major religions with few hits. ‘God’ got me where I needed to go. I was also worried this could be some god that I’d never heard of and was prepared to be frustrated.
lol, Bono was my first person guess too.

Similar. I got He and him early and was having some trouble narrowing it down. war eventually got me to god through god of war and zeus was the first 4-letter god I thought of.
I tried Rock before Bono, although it seems like a really dumb choice now - that’s not his current common name and they would have had to give the “The”, I’d think, even if he was listed as the Rock. Looking back at my guesses, I was so intent of the 4 letter part that I tried several women, too, even though I already had the he/him.
In retrospect, if it had been a real person who goes by a single name, they probably would have had their full given name in the first line. It would have been more obvious.
Yeah, I also tried known, referred, called, and named after I tried my initial bunch of names.
As long as you didn’t try ‘Bono’ after ‘god.’ Ha.
oh ffs there wasn’t a birth date at the beginning. It wasn’t Bono.
It’s not like there’s a mystery when Bono’s birthday is. There’s a form for normal people entries. JEEZ.
Of course, I’ve tried out some silly stuff on these entries… and I tried out more obscure gods before I hit on the answer… Isis… baal…

It was kinda a shot in the dark based on the phrase “made of metal”
80, 60%
I got ‘wood’ and ‘metal’ early, then found iron, steel, and so forth. And I could see it could be made from wood or metal, and I was more focused on something like a tool. I was close enough to get a lot of hits. I finally got ‘screw,’ and could see it in a list, and that made me think it was a list of fasteners.

Embarrassing.

I got religion early, and continued down that path with some success but nothing major. Finally got ‘Roman’ at guess 80, and then ‘Greek,’ but kept hammering at modern religious ideas. Took me a while to remember that before all that was mythology.
