About Me
There's not much to say - I've been an avid gamer since I got my first NES as a kid. I grew up with Mario, Link and Samus as my heroes (along with a healthy amount of TMNT, Transformers and Thundercats). I first got into online gaming with MoH:AA and spent a lot of time fragging it up in WWII Europe. A few years later, I got into Star Wars Galaxies, my first MMO experience. While SOE was busy making questionable changes to the game, many of my friends were leaving for this new kid on the block, World of Warcraft. I'd never been a big fan of the Warcraft games, but everyone I knew was switching to it, so I decided to give it a try. The game was fun, and still is in a lot of ways. I eventually reached a point, however, where I realized that what I was paying for wasn't worth it to me anymore.

I should mention, at this point, that I'd purchased and played Guild Wars for about 2 weeks right at launch time. At the time, I didn't find the game that great, nor did I know anyone who played. So, I uninstalled and basically forgot about the game. Fast-forward to December, 2007 - I'd grown weary of WoW and was looking around for something new to fill my need for online gaming. I came across Guild Wars once again, and decided to see if my old account still worked. Sure enough, it did and after reinstalling the game I rolled up a new Ranger. Things were, on the whole, very different from my first experiences with the game, changes that I feel (having been away for 2.5 years) were for the better as a whole. I've since acquired all the campaigns and played through them and am now working on titles for my Ranger, as well as a leveling a few other characters.

My Characters

 * Wikiara Malevu - [[Image:Ranger-icon-small.png]] - My main, and overall most played character.
 * Rekiara Malevu - [[Image:Paragon-icon-small.png]] - My second most used character. She's the 'Princess' of the Malevu clan, and I spoil her appropriately
 * Lukiara Malevu - [[Image:Monk-icon-small.png]] - The only male Malevu. I rolled him mostly to use as a farmer, though I can't really be arsed to actually learn to farm with him.  Someday, I guess.
 * Takiara Malevu - [[Image:Common-icon-small.png]] - My PvP character. I reroll her as needed, depending on what I'm doing, but she always has this name.
 * Ki Malevu - [[Image:Elementalist-icon-small.png]] - A PvP Elementalist character that I had created in April 2005. On reinstalling the game, I discovered she had 2 Birthday Presents in her inventory, with a 3rd only a few months away.  I keep her around as a mule for this reason.
 * Kiella Vistal - [[Image:Mesmer-icon-small.png]] - My first GW character, a PvE Mesmer from 2005. As with Ki, I keep her around as a mule / Present generator
 * Ninja Shark Pie - [[Image:Common-icon-small.png]] - She's a placeholder to keep this name for my use within the CoK Scrimmage League

My Guild History

 * Priests of Eris [PoE] - My current guild. Early in January, I decided I wanted a 'real' guild to play with, as the game just isn't the same playing by yourself all the time.  Since that point, PoE has been a wonderful home with many great people to play with.  They are also the leaders of the three-guild Kurzick alliance, Call of Kallisti [CoK].
 * Clan Malevu [CM] - This was a one-man guild that I created in December 2007, because I was tired of random zerg guild invites and wanted a cape for my characters. The Malevu clan is the extended family that dominates all of my characters' backstories in some way or another.
