TwystTye is a member of The Older Gamers gaming community, Vice Division Captain and officer of The Older Gamers (TOG) North American guild. The larger gaming community of TOG is over four years old and has a worldwide player base consisting primarily of North American, European, and Australian members.

As TOG is always accepting new members, steady growth in TOG's Guild Wars division prompted the addition of a second guild, the Temple of the Older Gamers, which is on the Euro/Aussie server. The original TOG guild, The Older Gamers (TOG), is on the North American server. Both guilds come together for regular TOGetherness Events, usually PvE, and both share the same Team Speak server.

The Older Gamers are members of a community for people that still enjoy playing computer games, but are in a bit of an older age bracket (25+) than the 'stereotypical' gamer. TOG is for gamers who are passionate about their gaming, but who want to escape or separate themselves from the abusive, disruptive and disrespectful behaviour, usually attributed to younger players, that is so often encountered when gaming online. This is exactly what TOG is about: a friendly, vibrant community full of PC gaming addicts from around the world, who are old enough to know how to enjoy ourselves properly!

We have beaten Urgoz's Warren many times over, and The Deep a few (haven't gone in there as much as Urgoz's). We also have recently discovered the joy of Alliance Battles and on our chat or TS someone will often be forming a group for AB. We grouped together for a photo op at the Dragon Festival. We also still return to Prophecies, just recently having assisted three guildies get through Ring of Fire, Abaddon's Mouth, and Hell's Precipice - all in one night! But we surely do believe in our afk breaks of 5-10 mins - we don't go in gasping for breath. :)

In real life, TwystTye is a work-at-home mother of two young up-and-coming gamers that are currently enthralled with Neopets and Animal Crossing DS, and wife and quarter-of-a-century friend to her diehard gamer husband.

Characters included four level 20s, three have completed Prophecies, one has completed both Prophecies and Factions:

Warrior: Celeste Driezon Necromancer: Mrs Deathscythe Monk: Inaki Althaean Mesmer: Youneda Goodname Elementalist: Icicle Twyst PvP/PreSear: Recyclable Twyst Character RP Personality Profiles: Celeste is my main girl. I created her from the beginning at the advice of my husband, a tank that could get right into the fight. I was skeptical ... until he said 'Cyclone Axe.' And then and there Celeste was born, axe-chopping, pony-tail swinging tough girl. She looks sweet; her gentle face belies her violent nature. She sees foes - she wants to get to hefting that axe around their neck! She was honored to be chosen as The One to come through Factions first, to lead the charge, and for her service she was rewarded with lovely new green armor. Now she pony-tails it through all the places in both games, her red-haired temper finding its outlet across two continents, and in between fights she examines her nails, waiting impatiently for the next head to chop. Inaki Althaean is a very sweet happy girl of Polynesian descent. Always smiling, even in the thick of battle, although her face may set with concentration when trying to manage energy and team health, she always has a happy sparkle in her eyes. She gets a bit put off by DS's (my husband's monk character) dislike of her, but chalks it up to thinking he's just jealous to not be the only monk on call anymore, and so she tries not to get her feelings hurt by his teasing. She chose her handwraps to coordinate with the lovely fluttering headpiece over the wiser choice of energy-enhancing tattoos. She loves gold and shimmery things, not for the value, but for their appearance, and loves to dance with her handwraps breezing through the wind. She absolutely adores her big brown Teddy Bear and brings him along whenever practical. Mrs Deathscythe is simply misunderstood. She looks odd and purposefully so. Her scars are dug deep into her skin and she displays them proudly as a symbol of her chosen solitude. She's very stand-offish and prefers to run alone, but will go along with groups as long as she is left to her own devices. But although she has this cold attitude towards adventurers, civilians and foes alike, a girl named Gwen was able to find a tender place in her heart. Mrs Deathscythe still carries Gwen's Broken Flute with her to this day (shhh don't tell her I told you). Youneda is a bit stuck-up and she does not care who knows. She's tough as nails but dresses fancy. She will mesmerize anyone that dares to stand in her way, and then suddenly clear their daze just to throttle them with her powers of mind. She's not one to mess with. Icicle is a girly-girl, but her attitude is so benignly naive that she is hard to hate. With dark hair and soft blue eyes she is difficult to hold a grudge against. She loves her pretty blue clothes and likes to cast her damaging spells, but she's not so much about the fight as she is about being amazed at the power of her own skills - another attitude that makes her very difficult to dislike. Her very naivete is a bit endearing, even. And those are my girls.
