default Member Introductions

Post by Pampered One on Sat 23 Feb - 22:35

Hello hello. Welcome to the Cherubim Knights. As leader I felt I should be the first to introduce myself. My name is Gunter but I go by JR usually. I hail from Oregon and am engaged to fellow officer Lady Herodias (Ann).

I have been in MMORPG's for about 7 years now. It all began for me way back in Lineage 1 where I was a member of NASH Pledge and later migrated to Eden Pledge where I met Lady H. From there it was off to Lineage 2 and then later to Guild Wars when it was in Beta. I was part of the start of Seraphim Knights and then started the Cherabim Knights when that guild became full. After a while I left for about 16 months where I returned to Lineage 2 free servers. I also touched onto a few other games such as Two Moons, Earth and Beyond, RYL, and SWGalaxies.

I came back to GW December of '07 and retook Leadership of TCK since it was an empty storage guild having fallen into disuse.

On a personal note, I am a short redhead and have the temper and intelligence to match, but am generally shy and keep to myself. I work as a Hydro Tech for the government and spend a lot of times outdoors and on boats. Currently Lady and I are on opposite sides of the country which makes things a little lonely and depressing at times.

I love to play solo but do enjoy those hunts with friends. I am a meticulous player, preferring to take my time and explore every part of the world which does not always make me a great companion if you prefer to just zip through the mission/quest. Best bet is to tell me upfront you just want to get through it. That allows me to mode myself into that mental frame. This meticulous is what makes me good for helping new players get through early quests since I pretty much have explored it all. i am still slowly working myself through the other chapters and expansion with the same meticulous fashion.

I usually play as a woman and have gone so far as to use a voice morpher on vent. Though, of late, I am playing more male characters. I have 2 accounts. One has all chapters and the other is Prophecies only. I have at least one character of every class except for mesmer. I really don't like that class much. I prefer warrior but am at best, a mediocre player. I have no aspirations towards greatness.

I hope, and encourage, everyone that joins us will post a little about yourselves so that others can get to know you on a more personal basis.

Thanx and welcome,
JR

default Lady Herodias: Welcome to my World

Post by Lady Herodias on Sun 24 Feb - 19:12

Well, i am not much for introductions and with my sense of organization I would prefer to answer questions, but now you will just get my random thoughts as I introduce myself.

My name is Lady Herodias, aka Annie, Ann, Aurelia...etc and anything else Gunter chooses to call me. I am not the best player in the game, since I see Guild Wars as a way to relax and enjoy friendships. In fact since the inception of Guild Wars in 2005, I managed to only get one character through the game...Lady Herodias, my ranger.

My home in in Oregon, but I am living in Virginia where someday I can be a millionaire, lol since where I lived in Oregon does not pay squat. Actually, my son lives in Virginia, as well as my in-laws. I met Gunter while being in the West Coast, and he in the East Coast while playing Lineage 1. I was never a gamer until playing Lineage, but since then, I have played Lineage 2, Guild Wars, Risk Your Life, 2 Moons and other betas that I can't seem to remember. I am considered one of those older gamers, who matronly mother the younger players.

I was the founder and leader of The Seraphim Knights whose core players transitioned from a one month old guild called called Lonestone back in April, 2005. Gunter and I played for a year and half in Guild Wars; whereas the Guild expanded its membership to The Cherubim Knights. Unfortunately, like most couples both of our leadership styles were different; thus to keep peace, we both decided to leave Guild wars for Real Life.

Well enough of our sordid past. I am Asian, born in Hawaii, and raised in Southern California. That makes me a Californian by my standards after living there for 30 years. I have two children, and my son and his family are gamers...so most of the time we are all on electronic gaming devices.

In real life, I work in Human Resources on the computer ALL day, so you can call me a "computer chair potato", but I am trying to do some belly dancing classes, and I love to do some amateur photography.

What I have found interesting is that since the inception of Guild Wars, many more women are playing the game. I remember when I was the only woman in TSK, and my one effort was trying to get more women in the Guild. As of today, many more women are sharing the passion of online gaming....yay!

Well, that is a little about me. Hopefully, I will have an opportunity to play with all of you who are in the guild, or who will be joining the guild.

Blessings!

Post by Auron Of Esgaroth on Fri 29 Feb - 6:19

[I've Edited this post to reflect my lack of in-game participation - Richard (Auron)]
I'm going to be inactive in the game for some time - but I'll still be here on the message boards. My little brother switched guilds to be with some friends of his.
My little brother is now playing on my account so say hey to him when you see him online.
My Old Character - Auron of Esgaroth. If you see him in-game, it's probably my lil' bro using him for farming cash to get his character moving.

My game philosophy - Any class can make a good build as long as you use your strengths to your advantage. Knowing your opponent is optional, but sure helps. Make sure you can recognize when your strengths expose your opponent's weakness. Use party members to cover your weaknesses rather than trying to build a do-it-all character. You'll both benefit from having the teammate to cover for your weaknesses.

More personally, I'm married. My wife is in Law School right now. I live in the Raleigh, NC area - have since graduating from NCSU.
My dad was in the US Army. Home is now North Carolina.
I'm an electrical engineer by profession and degree. If you're on a NC university campus, chances are that you'll see a building that I had a hand in designing. The firm I work for has contracts with every large university in the state of NC.
I love the game of Golf. I love going to movies with my wife. We saw all of the Oscar nominated films except Juno for 2007. Atonement was our pick for best picture.

Auron Of Esgaroth - W/Any L20. Originally a W/N. Tyrian Skill Hunter - 55/90.
If you have a question about building a melee class with Necro secondary - ask me on these boards.
I completed every mission in Prophecies - some with bonus - with only henchmen. For most of those, I carried the Necro secondary.

Hi guys, I guess I should get my intro up on here. Sorry it took so long to write.

I am a pretty new player of Guild Wars. I have learned in other games to get one character up to a high level before creating a bunch of others, so thats kinda what's happening now. I Run a monk exclusively, and I have always enjoyed the healing aspect of the Cleric / Monk classes.

I will sometimes roll up a Warrior class or an elementalist that you might see in pre-searing to play with new players, but they are temps that get erased usually.

I have been playing online games since 1997 When I joined House of Shadows "HoS" in a game called Multiplayer Battletech, I played Ultima Online, Legends of Kesmai, Dark Age of Camelot, EverQuest, Planetside, 10Six, Inner Sphere Wars, and others that I am surely forgetting.. I have been a member of "HoS" in every game I have played since then, except where no formal "HoS" guild was established. That is the case here in Guild Wars. I consider myself lucky to have found a great Guild to play with here in TSK, and was very excited when I heard about their sister Guild TCK, and TCK's vision about the game. A relaxed family type atmosphere was exactly what I was looking for, I requested a transfer as soon as I had spoken with Lady Herodias.

You may notice that their are several people in TCK that all have the last name Tenite. That would be my family. My son Forrist plays, as well as my wife Heather (although not as much as myself and Forrist). Forrist and I love to hunt with other guild members. If you are looking for someone to hunt with, feel free to contact us! We would much rather hunt with guildies than solo anyday..even if its in missions or quests we have already completed.

I am a computer programmer for Boeing in real life. I graduated from Webster University with a BS in COMP SCI, and I am currently working on my MS in Distributed Systems.

I also read alot like Auron, my favorite series is The Wheel of Time By Robert Jordan. I would recommend it to anyone. Still waiting on the last book of that series (even though RJ is dead his wife and another author are finishing the book from his notes and their own knowledge of the plot from what RJ told them).
I have read David Eddings, Piers Anthony, Tolkien, Dave Duncan, Asimov, whats her name.. Dragon Riders of Pern series..Anne Mcaffrey? and tons of other single book authors, but for the ones listed above, I have read almost everything they have written.

If your not into Science Fiction / Science Fantasy or pure fantasy (what are you doing playing this game? hehe!) then I would recommend Pearl S. Buck "The Good Earth" Historical Fiction.

I have recently also became a fan of Dystopias.

Ask me anything, I'll do my best to answer.

Post by Lady Herodias on Sat 1 Mar - 8:10

I just wanted to thank you all for the introductions. Its nice to know a little about the people we play with, since we can always find an element of what a person is like and if there is anything in real life we have in common. Looking forward to growth in this guild!

Post by Razel Tenite on Sat 1 Mar - 15:45

I am Forrist son of James(Aeternalia). I am new to Guild Wars. I found Guild Wars while I was bored one night and was looking up RPGs. I liked the sound of no monthly fees and looked into guild wars to see what it was all about. I got it about a week later effectively pulling my dad into the game with me.

I joined TSK shortly after my dad joined. After a while we decided TSK wasn't right for us and joined TCK. Which even though it was a sister guild varied so drastically. TSK was helpful but i had never played with another guild member which i greatly wanted to do. Once I had come to TCK within about an hour I went and completed a mission with Gunter. And since have hunted with several other guild members.

My main character is a lvl 20 Necro/Mesmer. I have a lvl 1 warrior in pre-searing but i have not played him much. I own Prophiecies and Eye of the North, and plan on getting Nightfall, and Factions

I am in 9th grade and i am in many advanced class such as Honors English. I have a GPA of about 3.8-4.0 which is one B. I read a LOT I was introduced to Frank Herbert in 7th grade and have loved his books since. I also read Piers Anthony, Terry Goodkind, Robert Jordan, other Sci/Fi or Fantasy books.

I look forward to being in this guild and will help anyone to the best of my ability(which in this game and at this time is not very high but should improve)

Hey! I'm Jin Seop, or Dan. I'm a former member of TCK and I'm back! I joined TCK back in 2005, but was shortly transfered to TSK due to the lack of activity in both guilds (at the time, we thought it was a good idea to combine in order to have a better overall experience). I am more than willing to help others through the game whenever I'm online, and if you're up for a little PvP action, it would be my pleasure to join you. Very Happy

I am currently a student attending Bowling Green State University, and I am majoring in Finance. However, that will change next year when I switch over to Telecommunications. For the most part I like to chill when I play and I will be looking forward to getting to know the new TCK members.

If you want to party up just let me know.

Hi everyone. My name is Andy and I am one of the newest member in the guild. I started playing GW like 2 years ago and I am a pretty casual player. I am happy to join anyone who need help through missions or just want to do something for fun. Very Happy

I live in Toronto and do marketing online. I graduated in Queen's University (Ontario, Canada) majoring in computer science and business.

I like baseball, basketball and golf (too bad we have long winter here!). I am also a fan of the Toronto Raptors and the Blue Jays and one of the few people here in Toronto that doesn't care about hockey Razz

I look forward playing with you in the game and getting to know each of you.

Cheers!

Post by Rade on Fri 7 Mar - 8:41

Greetings all. I've just joined the ranks and will now attempt to reveal some of my mysteries. Very Happy
I go by the name of Rade (ingame) or Eric (outofgame) but I will answer to almost any name thrown my way as long as it's not too slanderous.
I live in the land to the north, the wilderness known as Canada. I love the outdoors (must be the ranger in me) and enjoy exploring new places whether it be on foot or my trusty motorbike.
I've been with Guild Wars since the beta opening weekend and it has become an old friend. The only other MMO I've dabbled in is EVE Online but since GW has no monthly fee that is where I've spent my time. I am looking forward to seeing what Guild Wars 2 has to offer and it will be both sad and exciting when or if I ever make the transition from GW1 to GW2. Should that time come, may it be with the Cherubim Knights, as we close the chapters of one journey and experience the unfolding of new adventures together. With that said I'll do what I can to help our guild grow, flourish and be a happy little haven. Just give me a shout if you need a hand or if you need help picking out the latest in Asuran fashion. Razz

Peace to y'all ... let's have fun out there.

Oh, wow! I'm Kayla and have just started play GW. Though I do play all kinds of MMORPGs. Usually the free kind. Razz For now, I know I will play as much as I can. I find this game really exciting and I love all the quests.

I live in the center of the U.S. The boring state of Indiana. High school is still my prison, but I hope to drown my life in games or at least computer graphics.

I hope to meet, or talk, to everyone!
But beware. I love to talk/type. >///<

Just me again, putting my name back on the portal...so it looks like im the only person that writes, lol. Actually I wanted to welcome Arete, Wizard, Rade, Sky and everyone else who has been nice enough to post here.

By the way Rade...you have way too many characters listed. You definitely have almost as many as Gunter!. Well I am glad that we are establishing our core group in TCK. I hope that many of you will stay and enjoy your stay with us!
