Student

How long is your typical gaming session when playing EQ?
It can vary from 1 hour to 3+ days, depending on what I am doing / camping.  If it's levels right after an expansion release that is generally when I do my 3+ day stints.  Average is probably 12 though.

What does a typical EQ day consist of for you?
Really depends on the day and what I am doing for the newest expansion or killing older mobs.

What was the race and class of your very first character?
Half Elf Paladin

What got you into gaming and what sort of games do you like the most?
Honestly I don’t remember.  It just sparked something inside of me that opened up this giant gaming side.  Only game for me is EverQuest.

What other hobbies or activities do you take part in, other than playing EverQuest?
Chainmail jewelry, shooting pool, playing with my cats, spending time with my boyfriend, watching movies, HOMEWORK, lolz!

Does your main character worship a deity?
Agnostic

How did you choose your main character's name?
Well she has been name-changed twice because there was already the same name on the server I moved to, and I had always liked this name and I guess it just fit the right time and place! It stuck!

What do you like best about EverQuest?

What do you get out of playing EverQuest?
