How
has the game changed since you've been playing?
Everything has changed pretty much
from spells, weapon construction, fighting, and people. When I started
playing it you learned spells once an event IF you used a dagger
and it was a two cost buy down system. Weapons used to be pvc and I would
make awesome looking curved swords. Then it all switched to fiberglass
and bamboo and the weight of the weapon started being super important.
Fighting has become faster and much more of a bigger part of the game. And
we now have all these different practices and all these new faces coming out of
the colleges every year this game is constantly growing.
Who
have you learned the most from?
Everyone I've talked in pretty much
has taught me something in this game. Though a few stand out. Don
Ottman taught me a lot about the spells and how they work and to use them to
their full strength. The Guild of the Iron Lotus braught me on my first
night uest and showed me how to scout the area and interact with the
NPC's. Ray McGuirk told me stories of the old days and the full potential
this games has. He also showed me how to be social and just talk to
everyone I meet. Alysha(kyntela) has helped me alot with fighting with
the huntress practices in the past years. Many event holders have helped
me pursue my own goals of being an event holder by offering nothing but
support.
What
was your best moment IC?
Well two stick out the most for
me. First it has to be the time I won Heraldry for team Keela at Queen of
Hearts. It was the first noncom tourney I entered and it felt good to go
home with first place. Second has to be when Karmha got courted by the
Shadow King. I have been having a blast with this plot and it's nice to
be fully involved in it. And Dave Dolph is defiantly one of the event
holders I look up to the most it's great interacting with him as the Shadow
King.

What
was your best moment as a NPC/EH/Player?
As a new EH I held me first 3 day
event this past May. I know there were slips ups here and there, it's a learning
process. But I would have to say seeing all the PC's as well and NPC's having
fun at my event very rewarding. I let my friends Cal and Andy hold their
New Eden Casino for the first time ever, which they seem to have fun
with. And it gave me motivation to only make better events to come.
As a player I would have to say it is kinda neat looking around at the all the
different tabards and knowing i made most of them. :) Keep the orders
coming Karmha Creations is happy to supply the realms with tabards and banners
as well as other things.
What
would you like to see changed or developed more in game?
I would like to see more new event
holders with plots. We all got ideas and have seen what people have fun
with put them both into and event and run it. Cross over between plots
would be awesome. And more interaction with NPC's verse just killing and
looting them all the time.
What
advice would you give new players?
Talk to everyone! There is so many
different things in the game one person can do. I always tell newbies
there's something for everyone in this game. Whether you like fighting,
casting or just crafting. And always do whats most fun for your because
that's why you are here playing this GAME.
What
do you love most about the game?
The community within it is the
greatest thing. For the most part everyone is in it to help each
other. And it's just a variety of so many different people it's amazing.
Who
would you like to see the next interview be with?
