Good morning everybody!
I'm Valkerian and I'd like to apply for full membership. I'm currently playing Rift on the Wolfsbane server as a Defiant.
I'm 33 years old and I've been gaming since I was about 12 years old. One of the first Fantasy RPG games that I played was Alternate Reality on the C64. I spent hundreds of hours playing that game and from then on I was hooked. Later on I played some D&D and Star Wars pen and paper games but it didn't last very long.
The first MMO that I played was Ultima Online on the free shard Sanctuary. This was an RP crowd and was lots of fun. I gave up on the RP once I joined WoW back at release. I became a min/maxer and I've been that way ever since.
I currently play Rift and I'm looking to get into some raiding or helping out with crafting (my favorite part of the game). I have 6 characters on the server, 3 of which are maxed out (Rogue, Warrior, Cleric), one is ready for raiding (Rogue Melee DPS/Tank), and one can be pushed to 50 in short order (Mage).
I'm interested in joining ToG because I hate young-guild drama and the language some younger players throw around just to be cool. I have three children and two are autistic. Hearing the term "Retard" drives me insane. I'm also particularly put off by any sort of bigotry, especially in the use of the British slang term for a cigarette.
I do work full time (if you're interested, this is my
work) so I won't be able to go hard-core raiding but I'd love to be a backup for most of the raid nights.
Feel free to ask me anything you'd like!
Valkerian
