About Me
Hi everyone. I tend to write lengthy comments, so I apologize if I've clogged up your user page. Feel free to return the favor on my page. :)

I've been playing Guild Wars for a little less than a year, and mostly enjoy playing PvE and RA (although it can be frustrating). I haven't had much chance to play higher level PvP. I'm a bit of a synergy freak, so I enjoy reading the skills lists a lot, trying to find interesting combinations, and helping people improve their build ideas. Because I'm always buying new skills, armor and runes for new builds or characters, and hardly ever go adventuring in the Realms of the Gods, I'm basically always broke. At least I've learned to save money by using weapons collectors whenever possible, especially for wands and focus items.

Although my Guild Wars addiction is pretty strong, I do play other video games as well. I love my Nintendo DS Lite, but I really need some interesting new games for it. I still break out my Dreamcast now and then, and I'm strongly considering getting a Wii when they are more readily available. Outside of video games, I also greatly enjoy boardgames (chess, diplomacy, european strategy games, etc), and I'm a huge music geek.

Page Layout Credits
The layout for my character page was taken from Helena. Special thanks to her for letting me use it, and also to Azroth for pointing me in the right direction. The idea for tabbed pages was inspired by Xasxas256's page.
