Curse

Welcome to YVFC! Where you talk about your very first character...

What and why did I make this thread?
I've have heard around that the way you play determines your personality. In scientific terms, the first profession you select and the name that you choose for you character basically correlates with yourself as a whole. I want to know if this is actually true. I'm also curious with what most 'old' characters do now adays...

Your information should include but not limited to,

1. In Game Name of your First Character.
2. Profession of your first Character.
3. What your character does in Guild Wars now. Ie. Farming, Running, Pack mule.
4. Telling a little bit of your personality

A screenshot of your character may be added. Maybe armor also determines your personality.

I pray to Saint Thomas Aquinas that I will learn something from this.

Note: This thread is not a 'spam' thread, but more of a research thread. So don't bring crap here

. I know a great place to spam. Psst... Off-topic forum.

My first character was an Elementalist, don't know the secondary proffesion anymore though. Got him up to lvl 16, and he was in Serenity Temple, but I got bored of him, so I deleted him, and made a Monk. Still have that Monk

Lady Lozza · Jan 08, 2006, 04:50 PM // 16:50

lol my VERY first character was an ele, I have no idea what happened to her.
The first character I finished the game with was my 2nd or third. She was a ranger (elemental) by the name of Raven CantRemember

She had Druid's armour but never managed to get the 15k stuff. She used a long bow and lots of spirits but I never GvG or PvPed with her. She got deleted shortly after I finished the game when I decided I was much better at playing casters.
Current characters are E/R, Mo/W, and Me/N.
My ele has 15k pyro and hydro. My Mo has 15k wanderer's, and my mes currently has collectors max. I'm saving for the Me FoW. 50 ecto and 99 shards to go!

killer toast · Jan 08, 2006, 05:02 PM // 17:02

My 1st character was a warrior/ranger(i thought i could be good at useing a axe and a bow oh how wrong i was ._.) ya hes my running guy now

Thats him

he uses alot of armors because when it comes down to it all armors are equal

Sagaris · Jan 08, 2006, 05:11 PM // 17:11

My first character was Leatio Sagaris, an E/Mo. He got to Ascencion and then I deleted him for my Ranger. As for the personality, he was dumb and didn't know what he was doing. That sums him up pretty much. :P

Nikki Moonlight · Jan 08, 2006, 05:14 PM // 17:14

grim weeper, mo/r, played her all the way to the end, i keep him around to help people out with missions now, and..my personality=sarcasm all the way!

Bale_Shadowscar · Jan 08, 2006, 05:23 PM // 17:23

My First Character is Bale Shadowscar, N/E (although he is now a N/me or a N/mo) and he is still my most active character too. I always play him (except for PvP).

Josh · Jan 08, 2006, 05:26 PM // 17:26

My first character was an Elementalist / Monk, Jahara Zepplin. Still have that Character today, rarely use it, almost every Elementalist skill unlocked, just need Obsidian Flesh, Glimmering Mark, Mind Shock and some Water Elites.

I use it for just...farming, helping friends, etc...

X Apocrathe X · Jan 08, 2006, 05:27 PM // 17:27

hehe mine sounds like a freaking novel . my frist guy was a monk warrior called adeptus and delted him once he got to yaks bend at lv 12 and tht was ages ago since them ive had untold characters the higest level was 16 buthis gone aswell it seems a complusion to get them to lions arch then delete them keeping there good gear untill a few days ago when i decided to go back and make him again with a different name and take him all the way and hopefully get him to be a lv 20 55hp monk to farm with his now in pre sear as we speak beging his long journey

LifeInfusion · Jan 08, 2006, 05:41 PM // 17:41

Ele/Monk named Life Infusion was my first character.
(Wanted to be Monk, but Monk in february 2004 prereleases was chubby looking and balding...)
The irony is I didn't know Infuse Health was even a skill...
anyway, the character carried over into the release and has all monk skills (hence efficiency as secondary monk).
Ingame:Life Infusion
Role: Team based air disabler (weak/blind/Knockdown/windborne buffer) + healer (heals, duh) or warden (ward/armor) +healer (heals)

----------------------------------------------------
I had a W/N named Justice Warrior on which I ran a sword build with degen/curses and plague touch. It was a female with knight's armor (also in betas). My current warrior is male W/N with a similar build (just with elites and such) and used to WEAR knight's armor but I wear collector's due to the armor boost and the fact that gladiator's is f-ugly. I used to be W/R for the sake of troll unguent and decided it was not worth it. I have all ranger unlocks as secondary class though.
Ingame: Life Blade
Role: NOT a tank, an aggo control warrior with damage output and team-based buffs like "Charge", "Watch Yourself", "Plague Touch" (lessen load off monks)

----------------------------------------
My necromancer is unique in that I had not thought of it until I had finished hell's precipice on my elementalist. In that point in time my warrior was up to Desert or something.
Anyway, I thought how I would unlock all the skills. I was missing two classes: Necromancer and Mesmer. Now, if I choose Mesmer in PvE I would be stuck with it. So I went to make a PvP character to see the available skin tones and armor types. The male mesmer is horrible in armor (IMO) and fast casting isn't all too useful in PvE. Thus my N/Me (Confusion Infusion) was born.
Ingame: Confusion Infusion
Role:Blood Spike Support (Drains, well of power, etc.), Disruptor (Energy draining, skill disablers (ignorance, soothing images, sympathetic visage, etc.)

-----------------------------------------
That's how I got all 456 skills. No repeating secondaries. (*sticks tongue out at people with both Mo/W, Mo/Me, and W/Mo on one account)

Savio · Jan 08, 2006, 05:44 PM // 17:44

Savio Striator, originally W/Me. I'm changing his secondary around now because he has 300-some skill points and I still have a few more Elites to unlock.

M3lk0r · Jan 08, 2006, 05:51 PM // 17:51

Am I the only one who still plays his 1st Char?

Tulkas The Avneger
Ranger/Monk
Still use him for UW trapping, GvG flagrunning and helping Guildies do missions.

Since then I have made and ascended a War/necro and an Ele/mes.

PS: Ranger is STILL the most fun and best char to play with :P

jciardha · Jan 08, 2006, 05:52 PM // 17:52

Oralee Rain, elementalist. She never even made it out of presear before I found her boring. Deleted her, and created a mesmer, whom I still play to this day (and that's about 6 months or so), and have never ever been bored with him.

The undead Mesmer · Jan 08, 2006, 05:56 PM // 17:56

My verry first character whas my necromancer Cursed Baltimore

he is a N/Me ascended and stuff and currently doing nothing (appart from being a SS necromancer doing UW runs for fun)
about how he is ingame hehe he is the grandson of grenth and son of king thorn so you know how nuts he is

------------------------------------------------------------------
and because i have nothing better to do i whill also post my second and 3rd character ^^
------------------------------------------------------------------

Crusader baltimore whas my second character a W/Mo created for my little brother >.< he tottaly screwed him up and when i tryed to delete him he looked at me with his huge warrior eyes and i couldnt take it i would make him the best warrior ever.
whell that happened :P he is my main farmer now and likes being silent and not like al those other W/Mo typical figures that like to hump on others.

And now for my ranger Lulu Baltimore i created her twice yeah the first time i deleted her because it whas really just screwed ^^ (i love deleting stuff btw once i deleted my whole savegame for FF-8 -_-) annyway the second try whas better and now she is a Trapper/Spiker/Interupter with her verry own spider and sexy 15k druids

she is the treehugging type and is verry happy and most of the time a bit ''too'' happy ^^
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is that enough?

Kaguya · Jan 08, 2006, 06:00 PM // 18:00

I used to play Anarchy Online (guess I will some day again, dunno, the little things that annoyed me, annoyed me plenty enough), used to play a Doctor by name of Janat there, so my first GW char was a Monk, aptly named Jane Nate. (Same name used in AO), didn't really like the monk experience in GW, the AO heals I had used to deal with were nowhere close to GW's (AO doctor's highest profession title was 'Eternalist' for a reason

) This was soon after the GW's official launch..

Took me about a week, I got to Ventari's Refuge, started heading for the Denravi mission with henchies until we all died.. Except the archer henchie.. who was stuck in a corner of the starting point, no rezzing coming anytime soon, no way to terminate the henchie either. Got really frustrated, quit the game for few months, happily whacking AO again.

Came back, made a Necro, played a week, got bored. Few months passed, back again, deleted my original monk (the first char), created first of the Kaguya-series, a new monk, got used to not being 'super healer' like I was in AO.. Been playing for a month now, no sign of boredom yet (except when I forced myself to farm the 15k gladiator's and sup absorb for my warrior >.>) Prolly need to look for a guild now if I really want to continue playing still.

Yay, it's a novel. o_O

Necromas · Jan 08, 2006, 06:03 PM // 18:03

My first char was Necromas Darklight, he is a Necromancer/Monk that I created at the start of the very first preview event, the E3 for everyone one.

I still play him today, but I usually have his secondary as Mesmer so I can do farming with an Echo SS build. But I change back to Monk when I want to do an MM build.

Right now I still use him as my main character, of course he is good at farming cause he can do SS and MM builds, but I still haven't finished all the titan quests with him, and I use him as my general char for just having fun.

megalomaniac_mutant · Jan 08, 2006, 06:06 PM // 18:06

Well i dont have the game for very much time, so my first character is the one i use, and the only one i have.
He is a male W/R, name is Lord Artan, and i really like him. Will never be deleted.

Theus · Jan 08, 2006, 06:07 PM // 18:07

My first character was a W/Mo, and I still have him, and he has all the monk and warrior skills,Though I currently retired him until the next chapter when I have 50 more skills to unlock.

Pevil Lihatuh · Jan 08, 2006, 06:13 PM // 18:13

no, i do too!

My first was Pevil Lihatuh, a R/Me created in the last beta session. And she is still by far my most played char (out of 7, yes 2 accounts :P) I use her for most things; soloing, farming, missions (finally completed game with her recently), she's my only ascended char with all but one elite, 15k armour and her most prized possession, Deathbird! The level 20 Strider that I've had with her since pre-sear.
