Oskar De Deus (a name that has had me telling many dutch people I'm British

)
started in June '05

Healing Monk, boy did I jump in at the deep end!

After completing the game and getting all the elites I enjoyed a good few trips to FoW and not so many to UW before SF was released. After doing all the quests there I farmed greens til I had enough money for my black dyed 15k set and Brohn's Holy Rod. Left him for a bit until I found out about the Titan quests, done 2 out of the 4. Finally acheived my last target with him 2 weeks ago; 1 million+ xp

He is now retired until I need extra cash I guess.

Being a monk means its usually not hard to find a PUG. I tend to let other people lead the way unless they have no idea about what we are supposed to be doing, but it doesnt stop me from agreeing/disagreeing with other peoples ideas if I feel I need to. I will come under some flak just because monks are held responsible if things don't go smoothly, I accept that but I won't tolerate abuse from anyone, resulting in me leaving or just not healing/rezzing those jerks who think they can get away with treating people like crap. I'm friendly and throw in a few jokes with people usually, just wanting to have a good time

My first character was Jet Wardoc, a Warrior/Monk that I was playing exclusively up until a couple of weeks ago. I've done every possible aspect of the game with him (PvE, PvP, GvG, HoH), which made him extremely enjoyable. I'll still use him every once in a while for the heck of it, to capture a few elites that I didn't care for, and maybe to even farm, etc. Otherwise, he'll be my pack mule.

By the way, I'm enjoying the heck outta my second character, a N/Me. I have a feeling this character will provide me a few MONTHS of enjoyment as well, and might tide me over until Chapter 2 comes out.

Shen Xi · Jan 13, 2006, 04:34 PM // 16:34

My very first character was a N/W, Talena Ravenclaw, back when agme first came out. i soon discovered that hitting things over the ehad and suing blood skills si not actually that bright an idea so in a got pissed off and deleted her.

Next was my monk Shen Xi, whom i still use now and has all the secondaries unlocked (with any skills from them i might use on my monk) and whom i have now outfitted for pvp so he still gets usage today as i have mainly stopped pveing for now

Mavrik · Jan 13, 2006, 05:30 PM // 17:30

My first character was an Ele/Mo which I started back in May of 05... she lived until just the other day when I deleted her. I miss her but I'm having a lot of fun with her replacement, a Me/E of the same name RuthAnn. I was definatly a newbie with her, getting all the way to Oasis before realising there was collector armor lol. But I didn't do to bad with her, got through the desert, ascended... did a lot of farming with her as well against the charr back in ascalon. They hated her I know... I was killing lv8 Charr with 1-2 casts of fire magic. All before the nerf of course. I even had 15k geomancer dyed orange on her. But then I created a warrior, used that a lot. Got her further then my Ele in less time. Also have a ranger and a necro. I began to play my Ele less and less... so I deleted her the other day... oh well. Fond memories and a saved screen folder full of memories.

I don't know about others but i believe your choice of class and how you play him tells a lot about yourself. I know mine does.

Hailfall · Jan 13, 2006, 05:54 PM // 17:54

My first character was my N/Mo Shala Jarias.

She started off as an Battery but now is able to switch between Battery, MM, SS and Order Necro.

I got her almost all the 15k armors (Except the cultist one) and still have the 1.5 tormentors and 1.5k scars.. (and i just realised that has cost me a damned lot of money

)

I got most skills unlocked with her and she has the best items then my 3 other characters.. she is my baby..

[email protected] · Jan 13, 2006, 06:01 PM // 18:01

My first was/is W/Mo Name: Barbarian Monk Who is my current Farmer and Runner and "Quest assistant" I guess my attitude is helpful, if you catch me on a good day I'm willing to go to any extent to help you out.. My gear is all Green dyed gear, matches my guild Cape. Ascalon Gloves/Boots Glads Armor/Legs and Plate helm, it all doesn't match up, but seeing as it gives me the best stats, I'm fine with it.

Carinae · Jan 13, 2006, 06:19 PM // 18:19

1. In Game Name of your First Character.

Carinae Dragonblood. It was serendipity that gave me that name. Normally I can't think of good names to save my life, but Carinae sprang out at me. She wanted to live!

Carinae Dragonblood
Queen of the Snowball Arena

2.35M Experience Point
1085 Hours played over 7 months

Has unlocked:
EVERY Necro spell
All Elementalist spells, except 3 Elites
Most Messmer spells
Most Monk spells

4 sets of Armor: Fissure, 60k Necrotic, 32k Scars, and a 55 build Scars. She still wants to get her Collectors armor, but NEEDS MORE STORAGE!!!
5 VERY VERY fine Necro Wands

2. Profession of your first Character.

Originally Carinae was N/E, and for a long time, FLARE brought home the bacon! She was a Soul Reaping powered Elementalist for a long time. But, by the time she got into Kryta, she had discovered Blood Magic and had the attribute points to use it effectively.

More recently, she has played as N/Me and N/Mo. And just two days ago, she decided to try N/R. Soon she'll have a spider.

3. What your character does in Guild Wars now.

Mostly, she just plays around with friends. Completed the game, all the milestones, UW/FOW/SF. She just got her FoW armor, so she's broke now.

She's working on the last three Titan Quests, and can *almost* do DNK with henchies.

Carinae also like to explore! She plans on taking guildies deep into The Falls before long. And also on visiting Grenths Castle in Lornar's.

4. Telling a little bit of your personality.

She likes taking long walks with her undead, while wiping whole maps.

Carinae's truely a Necro, and sometimes played with all 8 slots devoted to Blood Magic. (Who needs a secondary?) She remembers a time long before Necro's were popular, when she was only sought for her sexual prowess, that's a different story.

Lately, she's been trying to play match-maker with some of the girls in her guild.

I don't think YOU understand, we project our personality into the toons, wether we consider/treat them as extesions of ourselves, our children or our significant other. The presonality we project onto them is ourself, it is ,for either good or bad, what we really are or what we want to be but are to controlled/reserved/shy to act out.

I guess my favorite one would be my R/E Diana Dragonhart (I believe she was my 3rd or 4th, my first few no longer exsist), I have bought her 3 sets of 15k armor (I don't like the drakscale and I am considering FoW), and have spent as much on bows and upgrades, so I guess she would fall into the "significant other" category.

The next one would be my W/M Aslan he is stalled in Frost Gate. He would be an extention of me. I don't buy him as much stuff, but I do make sure he has the good stuff.

Both also have bits of my personality in them. Even though Diana has the +8 druid bikini, I will threaten with becoming a pin cushion any one that asks her to dance.

allience · Jan 13, 2006, 07:59 PM // 19:59

my first char was an elementalist female named Laila Seth. i deleted her in pre searing coz i didn't like the hair style and remade her again with a different 1.

Laila's original secondary is e/me and it's also the first char i finished game with. she's now lvl 20 of course and and i still farm fow with her. i also use her when i nedd to pvp with an ele.

i'm quite fond of this char since it was the first1 used to discover all the gw missions which quickly became boring after the 3rd..4th..5th char.

Michiyo · Feb 01, 2006, 11:25 AM // 11:25

My First character is my Elementalis/Mesmer Kawazoe Tzeentch, I use him all of the time, theres just something about that mighty elementalist, I play'd with him pre searing to lvl 9 or so, got to lions arch, until someone just boofed it up for me "Want a free run to sanctum?" so of course I said yea. Then at sanctum I got a run through the mission to desert.. where I did a thing coupld of my friends and I, and some guildies thought was impossible but I proved em wrong! I ascended at lvl 14, as a guess what? Earth elementalist. Now his at ember light camp doing elite capturing. I use him all the time though I have other characters. Theres just something about that an ele since I first made it, always keep'd it, always used it, never deleted it, MIGHT add screenshot later.. The personality is an anything for teamwork kind, he plays alot of teamwork, solos very litte, unless its necessary, his somewhat-flirty with gal's dunno if its cuz of me or just.. hell Iono.. maby its me >.>, aaanyway I help when its needed. After I got to lvl 20, I was doing a mission, one of the ascensions, again.. there was a lvl 16 lil' ranger gal who everyone dissed at no one took her to the party, I did.. now shes a good friend of mine and hangs out with me. I first got dissed at taking her that she will ruin but believe me.. she did nothing but good ^_^ Dont underestimate low lvls.. this is my first character, Kawazoe Tzeentch, pleased to meet you.

His armor is just an red dyed collectors, im saving up and gettin elites at ember light camp to get 15k aeromancer as they look awesome, after that I want fow, but its a dream of the future.

BDStyle · Feb 01, 2006, 01:34 PM // 13:34

My first charachter was a monk called Morgan Zahadum aka The wanderer (can you guess what armour he wears lol)

He's started out life as a Mo/ra. When I was a Mo/ra I really enjoyed the odd combo's you could put together and especially enjoyed making a 'running' monk. My pet was just a stalker and I used a bow ALL the time when i was but a little newbie.

Now things are differant, Morgan learned the ways of inspiration, domination and illusion. Using the abilities of mesmers to turn would be attackers against themselves. He spends most of his time in the halls of Balthazar designing odd builds that most people mock because they aren't cookie cutter but that matters not. If not in PVP I'm helping guildee's in quests/missions and other assorted tasks, due to my experiance at being a monk and the fact our guild has few dedicated monks I am called on quite often

I have dabbled with other charachters, w/n, e/me, me/e but I have always gone back to my monk. My only other charachter I use regularly is a beastmaster (Morgan Cole) r/mo, mainly because its a fun way to pass the time in gw's and a good challenge. His task is to solo as many ofthe main missions as much as possible, some i know are impossible but I'll try whatever

Dave83 · Feb 01, 2006, 03:07 PM // 15:07

- My first character was a r/me
- Nik was Sentinel Wrath

- I liked the idea of attacking from range and manipulating my foes at the same time. I used to play AoM/T - hades player, and he was very defensive. Also 'sentinels' where a skill he got - You could summon four sentinels to protect a town centre. Basically I like to play defensive and counter. It got to the point where I was using heavy mesmer skills and now my main character is a mesmer.

Kook~NBK~ · Feb 01, 2006, 03:50 PM // 15:50

My First Character was Zidon Kook. He was a R/E (Not a good combo, but I created him on Day 1 of release, so who knew - LOL) Got him all the way through the game, opened up 100% of the map with him and had a great time teaching people the value of having a skilled ranger who knew how to use a longbow to pull.

He also worked with his pet bear, Monte, very well - for the most part. Monte reached level 20 and was a cantankerous brute who could be a bit reluctant to join the battle. But once he did, look out!

The story of Zidon ends on a sad note. Monte went into hyperphasia (in preparation for hibernation) and turned on Zidon and ate him. It's been rumored that Monte is still roaming the southern Shiverpeaks feasting on dwarves and the occasional human that passes by. So, if you're ever wandering in those parts and come across an uncommonly large bear, be carefull - it could be Monte looking for his next meal

Cjlr · Feb 01, 2006, 04:42 PM // 16:42

Before I got Guild Wars I spent weeks (seriously) researching it... Yet, the day I got it I still could not decide what type of character to make. I made four within the next twelve hours, and guess what? They're all still kicking around... I play them rather lopsidedly, but I've never forsaken any of them as I'm quite attached to all of them. Plus, I just couldn't bear to discorporate any of them. The sad looks my necromancer throws me every time I consider replacing her with a mesmer do more than enough to stay my hand... Here they are, in order of creation:

The first was, if I recall correctly, a mighty paladin by the moniker of El Pardak. I had yet to discover the truth about W/Mo's, but I'm still attached to him. He's been well supplied, but I can't drum up the will to play as him for any length of time. El Pardak is currently languishing in Beacon's Perch, miserably drunk on dwarven ale, trying to drown his sadness at the fact that I never play him.

Character number two was my lovely, if diminutive ranger/elementalist, Alyssa Kintara. Although she proved more interesting to play than stolid ol' El Pardak, she has a hard time making friends in the game (people don't seem to want her kind around most places) and is currently wandering the lush landscapes of Kryta with her good companion Wolfy (who is a wolf, by the way). She made it to Druid's Overlook, but it was so barren she turned around and went back to the Ascalon Settlement.

Third out of the gates was my stately, regal elementalist/mesmer, Aayla Darana. While people often spell her name wrong, they do seem to want her company. Must be the dancing... She was the first I took out of pre-searing, and by far the most played out of my virtual... children? proteges? disciples? She remains the only one of my characters to have completed the storyline. She had a little trouble coping with the AoE nerf but still is quite capable of dishing out the damage. Aayla Darana is currently engaged in the futile struggle to complete all quests and bonus missions before the release of chapter two... 8 bonuses, the Titan quests, and Sorrow's Furnace are all the remain.

Last is the poor, lonely Kalia Dena, my necromancer/mesmer. A mere thirty hours old and just out of Ascalon, Kalia often gets the short end of the stick in terms of playing time. Her future looks a little brighter, though. I no longer see burnt-out ruins looming behind her in the character selection screen, so perhaps I might play her more. Demand for necromancers is picking up, too. Time was I couldn't find her a group in hours. Now it only takes twenty minutes!

Now, I do kind of regret not having a free slot for PvP. Aayla is more than capable of holding her own with any PvP-only Ele, but shes' the only one viable and it's a little annoying to be that limited. I'm totally unwilling to part with 30 (at the minimum) hours of work on a character, though, so until such time as Alyssa catches up in terms of competitiveness (which seems to be most likely, in view of the other three's status) Aayla has been my only experience in PvP. Enough experience to earn 4,444 faction, though.

FoMoCoStang · Feb 01, 2006, 04:53 PM // 16:53

My first player was/is a W/Mo

IGN is Texas Slayer
Hes now my account cash cow. he makes the money for my other characters. he made the money for my 15k armor on all characters(4) and the runes and everything for my 55hp monk.

Hes a farmer, and a runner now. Hes stuck at abaddons mouth too...lol Cant find a decent group.

Ive been through many chars. And hes always stayed with me.

My personality? Im a complete smartass.

boxterduke · Feb 01, 2006, 05:19 PM // 17:19

My first characters is the beautiful Nadeen The Purple.
She started as a Me/Mo
Even before I got GW I knew that I wanted to create a mesmer.
I played the E3 public beta and created a number of characters till I settled down on a mesmer and played the 3 days with it.
I never played her as a mesmer and finished the game that way.
I then played after the end of the game as a fire nuker.
But these days you see me as a full mesmer.
I farm with her sometimes and WILL NEVER delete her.

Here she is:

sledgeunderhill · Feb 01, 2006, 05:26 PM // 17:26

My very first character was Sledge Underhill a W/N that never made it past level 11. I fondly remember hunting Charr with Mark of Pain. I deleted him to make room for a necro.

Since then, his name came back for a PvP character.

Grimm · Feb 01, 2006, 11:23 PM // 23:23

Dena Grimm
N/Mo
Minions (since back before they were popular)
Right now I'm unlocking E and Me skills with her

Kai Nui · Feb 01, 2006, 11:30 PM // 23:30

1. Kai Nui (Kainui is my middle name. I would have named him Kainui, but it had to be 2 names)
2. Me/Mo
3. Farming and finished collecting skill points and money for all /N skills..
4. I am a caring person, I like to debate, I'm a slacker in school, but only because I don't apply myself, I'm athletic, I'm addictively funny, and brilliant. At least that's what I hear.

Also, I chose mesmer because I knew I'd be having fast casting, and that kind of intruiged me. It actually altered the game instead if just giving you a bonus. I'm all about skill, and I like to complete EVERYTHING. I am collecting skill points to spend on Ritualist in Ch.2, but if it doesn't work out, I'll just start buying Elementalist and Ranger pet skills and maybe even get a spider for the hell of it. I chose monk secondary because I thought that'd be a good support class for healing, and I was right. Monk has been very useful to me, not as much any more because I've met some great monks, but when people sucked at monking and I had to sustain my own life and stuff. Plus, now I can farm with monk skills.

Also, I play with this character as if it were a PVP character. It doesn't seem right making a PVP mesmer. Must be why I've never done it.
