Teriadwyn

- In the Academy Field Trip, after we witnessed Lorniel’s death, we collected some gear for her father.
- In an effort to collect some data for my skirmish manuals, I started two new characters: one on a server that is going away and another one server that is staying up. It was an interesting contrast on how busy the two starter area were.

- Ran Thievery and Mischief many times.

“Just curious, did you guys have more fun getting your toons (the ones that are there) to Cap or after the Cap?
Me, I had more fun getting there. Seems to be more of a grind after reaching Cap but it does feel good when you get that Something that fits.
