Note: This page currently in progress



About me (In Game) I am currently a resident of Shabbat Ab, just east of the School of Harmony and University of Architecture area. I have played some of all four tales under different character names, but quit after about 3 months each time (except T4 so far) due to burnout and boredom. I always seem to try and do too much to fast, and get myself involved in so much that it turns into work rather than fun. This tale I'm listing my goals on this page to make sure they seem reasonable. :-)

As far as personality, I like meeting other players, and enjoy chatting most of the time in game about anything. If you're in the area, stop by and I'll pretty much always be willing to talk. I love meeting players new to the game, and try to help them if I can.

I live with my friend Aleysha in a partnership guild called Living Dangerously. We don't really have any goals for it other than to have fun, share materials, and spend less time making buildings individually. It's alot of fun and I would recommend it for anyone. :-)

I'm working with Eldar in SA Ironworks to sell metal and metal goods, and hopefully later glass goods as well. Our goal is to get to the point where we can live out the tale mainly making these metals and crafted goods without much other work we don't like.

I am a member of The Wanderers for purposes of mentoring. Being in all four tales (and burning out) helps when it comes to easing new players into the game. I also like their concept of helping players with the test principles, although I may try to focus on completing these on my own this tale for the most part.

My "main" work guild is Sunset Works. I was with them for a bit last tale, and liked the way it worked out. The guild is big enough to accomplish alot, but small enough so I have an affect on its direction.



About me (Out of Game) My name is Alex and I live in a Northwestern suburb of Chicago. I have a wonderful wife named Kelley who does not play the game, but does accept my obsession with it. I spend my workdays designing web-based applications, and spend my free time playing mainly this. Computers are great, aren't they?

Continual Goals Organizing/going to digs at least monthly Visiting acro lines every couple of weeks or so Recruit new players into The Wanderers and Sunset Works (which one is more useful?) Keep Sunset Works and SA Ironworks sheep pens at 500 onions each, or max 160 onions each day (can't consistantly do more without burning myself out)

Medium Term Goals Build Ob in lightly populated region Learn to smith high enough quality to sell hatchets, shovels, and wedges in SA Ironworks Find or organize a egyptwide chat guild/mic (E! just doesn't cut it for me) Find or organize a egyptwide trade guild/mic (useful for SA Ironworks even after The Goods comes online)
