Introduction
Our Guild, Ascalon City Heroes [Ache], is really small and revolves around the two of us playing PvE: Quests, missions and developing characters, e.g. by capturing Elite skills. Our Guild used to be more active, but we lost more than half of our players to World of Warcraft. I still don't get why you would want to pay an exorbitant monthly fee for a game so obviously inferior to Guild Wars.

Computers
I'm a student of Information Technology, more specifically programming. My favourite programming languages are PHP and C# and I always use MySQL databases. I have a small server at home running an Apache webserver and an UnrealIRCd IRC server 24/7.

Games
I have played more games than I can even remember, but here are my favourite PC games.
 * Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Neverwinter Nights and Neverwinter Nights 2
 * Call of Duty and Call of Duty 2
 * Diablo II: Lord of Destruction (probably my favourite game of all time)
 * Morrowind and Oblivion
 * The Quake series (until Quake 4 came out, I hated it)
 * Sacred (including its expansion, Sacred Underworld)
 * The Sims and The Sims 2

Furthermore, I have acquired some game consoles over the years:
 * Nintendo Game Boy
 * Sega Mega Drive II
 * Microsoft Xbox
 * Nintendo DS
 * Nintendo Wii
 * Note: I don't actually have my Wii yet. I have been waiting for two months now with three great games I obviously haven't been able to play yet: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Red Steel and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Double Agent.

Reading
I also like to read books. English books, mind you. Don't get me started on Dutch "literature". I really like Stephen King's stories and J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series.
 * Last book: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
 * Current book: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe
 * Next book: Dune: House Harkonnen

Music
I listen to a lot of different music, but I really love the sound of an electric guitar:

Some "guitarless" highlights:
 * The Crystal Method
 * Fort Minor
 * The Prodigy
 * Xzibit

Strenghts and Weaknesses

 * Strenghts:
 * Deals a continuous stream of lightning damage.
 * Uses a cheap spirit to gain energy through Essence Strike and increase damage for Spirit Burn.
 * Supports the party with Splinter Weapon and Ancestors' Rage, though the latter can be tricky to target properly.
 * Weaknesses:
 * No Elite skills on this character.
 * Even though it is among the fastest recharging Binding Rituals, Pain still takes 30 seconds to recharge.
 * High Communing seems wasted on only one Spirit.

Previous Skill Setup


 * Additional weaknesses:
 * Channeled Strike is a waste of energy since it is never boosted by an Item Spell.
 * Spirit Rift is easy to dodge with its 3 second delay.
 * The delay between casts is too big.
