Greetings,

   Ive posted a few times before, i love this site and communtiy, now trying to get into the community in game.  My wife and brother in law really hate forum boards so i am the official scout for our family of gamers lol.  we are looking for a place to call home for some time to come.  We have been bouncing from one game to another looking for a good one to spend time on.   we are looking for that fun active community of RP'ers that we had on Star wars Galaxies, Everquest, Ultima Online, and City of Heroes. 

--MMORPG background
   I started with Everquest and spent about 5 years there, moved from that to Earth above and beyond till it died, then spent 90% of my game time on City of Heroes virtue server.  Went to Guild wars 2 after that with sporadic forays into many other MMORPGs was sadly there for ArcheAge launch.  Just left WoW wishing i hadn't spent as much as i did lol. 

--RP experience;
  I have been table top gaming since i was 14 (loooong time ago, played pre boxed D&D Tongue), been a GM and campaign writer since i was 16 (even have a few published games with my names in the credits lol).  Online i have been Rping since Everquest launched.  Real life I do LARPS and fight in the SCA. started in Amtgard waaaay back in '88 and the SCA since '93.  Also had fun in NERO D/FW, Dagorhir, and Belegarth.

--Character ideas/info
    I create whole worlds for fun from single lines of poetry or a single picture, so creating just one character is very hard for me lol.  here are the few i have permanently settled on.

Thorgar Warhound: First born Hellsgaurd who believes his people have become too hidebound/traditional and left home with his Shield mate/wife to learn from other cultures the things that could help his people. 

Dirkha Dorgannon: A young Keeper of the Moon who has discovered a love of thrill seeking and skullduggery with a severe lack of the concept of personal property.

Kroh Ironwing: A highlander from Ala Mhigo looking for a new place in life, accompanied by his wife they plan to carve a place for themselves in Eorzea.

Nothriek An'nar:  An Au Ra who was adopted by a hermit astrological engineer, who has imparted upon the young man a insatiable desire to take apart and understand the fundamental building blocks of the universe.

--How did you learn about the coalition?
  a friend from Midnight Reveries gave me the link.

--What kind of a role-player are you aiming to be? Light, medium, or heavy?
  I prefer Heavy but i am very flexible, I usually take my lead from who else I'm RPing with.  Usualy have one channel for ooc and stay IC in the rest of the channels. That can change on game and on what the others RPing are more comfortable with.

--Anything from real life you'€™re comfortable with sharing? (Work, school, hobbies, etc)
   I am ex US Army Heavy Artillery, I like to do live action Combat like the SCA or LARP like Amtgard.  I am an apprentice sword & armor smith, Machinist, Welder, and Siege Engineer.  I love to game and exercise my imagination but hate Drama for Drama's sake. Real life always comes before gaming, and i take my gaming manners as seriously as i take my safety in the shop or combat.

The SCA is like that but with hard wood rattan for weapons and stricter armor standards, they also have very massive battles lol

Yeah, I've heard a lot about SCA and seen some videos, it looks really cool (and too hardcore for me lol)! Big Grin
