    First time through the game, I was playing for sheer plot. As a result, Jecht royally raped my poor party up the collective arse. So I went off and did a whole bunch of side stuff - including giving Omega a rather ignoble death, killing him in two moves flat while testing out Yojimbo - and went back, and stomped all over with him with a dose of Yojimbo for round 1 and Magus Sisters for round 2. Ah, the glorious sound of a hard-earned victory.

    Ah, memories. I'd taken down every optional enemy, even filled the Monster Arena. That was when I still anticipated new releases. Still haven't finished XII and completion isn't in the foreseeable future. That said, I'll have little to do in the way of procrastination once my stereotypical Elf Archer has cleared The Void, so I'll be searching for something.

    Ah, but the thought of my alias reminds me that I still have a lot of writing to do.
    Hmm...seems this post actually related to the thread in the end. Clever me.

    Which EQ server did you use to play on? I was on Bristlebane. I hear they are coming out with a classic EQ server. It's going to only be Vanilla EQ, Kunark, and Velious expansions enabled and non of that progression server BS where you unlock other expansions.

    I was on Bristlebane.
    I had most of the slots filled with various character types/races, but I'm at a lost for their names.
    Classic EQ, you say?

    jlt actully are my initials, 314 stands for pi as in politically incorrect. soviet is just a basic nod to where I was born and my liking of the idea of collective intelectual property.

    Yes, we won, so we do not have the Reds in the back garden.

    Collective Intellectual Property? Call it what it is - theft of the ideas of others, theft of their property, and theft of their livelihood.

    Moreover, I thought that they have murdered already many intellectuals. Or sending them to working camps in Siberia.

    Jazintha Piper came about after breaking up with the ex-boyfriend as a coping mechanism to separate my true self with my previous self. Today Piper is the creative side of me; pseudonyms to all creative works - musical compositions, novels, short stories, poems, paintings, drawings, whatever. It is also the pseudonym for all of my internet activities, save Facebook (atm).

    You should join our facebook group, and I think that your current rank is a hint, btw. ;)

    Well I must confess amazement. I didn't think anyone but me would take an interest in this idea of mine (for a thread).

    rRoyo was a city Elf I created back when I was trying my hand at writing.
    Today, it's a very easy name for me to remember after a sleepless night.

    While my mind is on the subject of writing (which it will be for about three minutes), I'll try have those notes on the subject of romances for you in the next few days. The polytechnic has been kicking the bollocks of my free time lately.

    Just prior to signing up here, I was listening to Jedi Mind Tricks' Sacrifice and it starts with Gene Hackman's General Mandible's Antz colony speech that is in my signature. I'm often unoriginal when it comes to forum names.

    Transparent Painting doesn't mean shit. Simply combined two words to make the nick as neutral as possible. Baldrug, used on the CN-forums and on CN as well, was the name of my first real role play character.

    Devlin is the oldest handle I've ever used on teh intarnetz back in the glory days of IRC roleplaying in VTM chatrooms. Before that, Devlin is also the first ever VTM character I played. He's a 9th gen Lasombra pack leader and often considered my real life alter ego when I RP him.

    Redsand is the name I use when I release anything online in the form of literature, software patches, game mods, music, etc. I got it from a popular pacific coast clothing line back in the mid 90's when I was going through my "alternative" high school days.

    GrimmHatter is what I mostly use these days. It's a different take on Dodgeson's Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland, which happen to be my most beloved literary character and fictional work respectively, with a darker spin to it. I've always loved deathly and grotesque things. In MTG I always play black decks, in RPGs I'm always a necromancer or vampire, etc. I wanted something to compliment "Mad" with a gothic edge, so I went with Grimm.
