Guild: Servants of Fortuna (SoF) (GotW 2005-10-04)

Characters:
 * Tetris Ellen (/)
 * My MM/SS necro, running around in her seksi undies (Scar Pattern Armor) accompanied by her Dune Lizard pet, enjoying all types of necro magic: Sucking blood, cursing, spreading death and raising minions. Occasionally using some traps for farming. Saving Vellum for my 15k scars.
 * She has been my favorite toon for a while, and still has lots to do: She got a Droknar Run early in the game, but has done the bulk of Kryta and Maguuma quest and missions. Currently she's roaming in the Southern Shiverpeaks (Thunderhead Keep), capturing elite skills. The Crystal Desert missions are still pending though (I hate 'em. >:[) and consequently she isn't ascended yet.


 * The Tetris L (/)
 * My divine healer/protector. Previously my favorite toon, but has pretty much completed the game (except some Titan quests and UW/FoW/SF quests) and is retired. Wakes up from hibernation for occasional farming or PvP/GvG. I might turn her into a 55er monk for farming some day.


 * Tetris L (/)
 * My poor attempt of a butch tank. Got bored with it and abandoned it at the Ring of Fire. Might delete it soon to free a character slot (after unlocking the remaining warrior elite skills for PvP). Or might turn it into a farmer. Dunno yet.


 * Tetris L Block (/)
 * My poor attempt of a Nuker. Got bored with it and abandoned it in the Crystal Desert. Used as a mule for now. Might delete it soon to free a character slot.

Gaming Life
GuildWars is my first RPG. I used to prefer first person shooters and strategy games.

I've been playing games since I was 13 on my beloved Commodore 64. In University I got my first PC and he had soom nice LAN deathmatches in our dorm, playing Doom, Duke Nukem, Heretics, Descent and many more.

I got into online gaming in 1998 with Unreal and Unreal Tournament. Became a hardcore competitive UT player and adict, found a clan (which still exists!), wrote a number of FAQs and tutorials about UT, was an admin and forum moderator on BeyondUnreal, was a league admin on the Barrysworld and Jolt UT CTF leagues, and a regular on various forums.

After I had quit UT I played various other FPS games, but none of them got me as addicted as UT (which is a good thing, I might add): RtCW, Tribes, Battlefield 1942, Desert Combat, PlanetSide, among many others. Last year I played UT2004 ONS and quite enjoyed it.

Many of the members of my old UT clan are playing MMORPG's meanwhile. Unfortunatly we couldn't agree on one game to play together, so we are scattered over 3 games now: WoW, EQ and GW. One of my clanmates convinced me to give GuildWars a try and I was instantly addicted. So here I am. :)

Task List
Appart from the daily minor stuff I am currently working on (or plan to do so in the near time) the following tasks in this Wiki:

Pending (in order of priority):


 * 1) NPC Category Crusade: Move all NPCs from Category:NPCs into sub-categories.
 * 2) Apply a common formating to all species articles, like Devourer
 * 3) Check all bosses against Bestiary/RawDump, and while doing so, split Category:Bosses into sub-categories.
 * 4) Split Category:Salvage Items into stacking and non-stacking
 * 5) Clarify the sub-species of Undead by their in-game characteristics (flesh?, bleed? corpse?, ...)
 * 6) Sort out Monster skills and new names: Non-Player-Skills, Item Effects, Environmental Effects.
 * 7) Elaborate the articles for all Rare crafting materials, like I have done for the Common.
