About Me

I joined up sometime in May 2003 shortly after reading about atitd on Penny Arcade. I was a Lake of Reeds resident, but after helping out on the Sinai Mega with my mad cement skills my friend base expanded quite a bit with people from that nearby region. I had planned on focusing on architecture last telling, but as the telling dragged on I moved into leadership as well. I finished as a master architect (Obelisk, Octec, pyramid, towers and mega), a J-man of leadership (trust, patronage and cartouche) and student in conflict (tug), body (acro) and worship (alignment). I'd like to thank a few 1st telling people here as well:

• Ay and Akabar - for being my crazy guildmates
• Kaelo and Hekatef - without whom I may not have made it past the first month or so.
• Dreasimy - for always making me smile
• LilaMay - for the beautiful LoR CC braziers that I used to drown Ay in charcoal (and for relationship advice)
• Neera - for letting me help you and being surprised everytime I said, "Pfft, I have that if you want to come pick it up." ;-)
• Maximus and Straton - I was seemingly always the new kid on the block in LoR, but you guys always tried to make me feel at home.
• Raland and Ingenia - for being my Sinai Cannuckian buddies. We need to go fishing for stocked perch again.
• Nephte - for all the great discussions.
• All the IRC people - You know who you are (I'm too lazy to type all your names without tab-completion). I talk to you guys more than is probably healthy. :-)

Along with most of the old LoR gang I moved down to LN for this go round. Many have been on hiatus, but I'm still hopeful that they'll return and see all the new, fun things that have happened in Tale 2 since they left. Since then my primary guild has become The Rising Phoenix. It was great to be in a guild where people were on at the same time as me again. Thanks for letting me hitch along. :-) This telling I'd hoped to focus on conflict and leadership. Conflict is going pretty well, having completed tug and Zhadu, and partially completed rake, and Yokir (at 6/7 skill). My current ranks are:

• Tug 5.1
• rake 2.0
• yokir 2.0
• zhadu 1.1

Contact me in game if you'd like to play. Leadership has been another story altogether. I've found myself without the time required to mentor, which is disappointing since I've always enjoyed it. I finally passed Hegemon while I was on break. DP I've done well in considering, but without doing more in the other test I don't think I'll be able to progress far. Host I haven't attempted as of yet. I'm hoping that sometime in the near future I'll have more time to commit to getting some leadership stuff done. If anyone has any advice please let me know. Outside of tests, I've immensly enjoyed foraging this telling. This kind of surprised me since I don't like mushroom hunting at all and the principle seemed fairly similar. Dria: Thank you so much for your work on all the herbs. In me alone your work has given hundreds of hours of enjoyment.

Somewhere along the line I found myself as part of the "greater atitd community" as well. Currently I'm a regional forum mod for LN and a regular on the official IRC channel for atitd (#atitd on irc.sorcery.net)
