User:Talibeh
I chose my name as a re-spelling of the Arabic girl's name Taliba, meaning "Seeker of Knowledge." I played briefly in Tale 2, and found that my favorite pastime was to work with others to figure out details of game mechanics, so that name seems appropriate. (Though an Arabic name may be less appropriate for ancient than modern Egyptians, I figure it's good enough for ATitD.)
This tale, I seem to be spending most of my time on the wiki, learning details of how things work, writing up my own to-do list, and cleaning up pages. I've spent most of my time working on integrating Maps into various pages, so if you have a question about those, feel free to use my talk page.
