Sinstrasz and Indigos, two of my (or, well, Nef's) drakes from Warcraft. I have like 98528359289 of the things at this point and I've named all of them, so they'll prolly all get art eventually.
Sinz thinks he's a blood knight and likes flapping around Quel'thalas like an idiot under the guise of 'defending it', and Indy complains loudly any time he's made to fly in warm weather.

Aw man, but that's the best part! Every single one of my drakes gets a name at least; most of them have full characters, but I'm still working a couple out. :D
And I do! I took a hiatus for about three years or so, but I started playing again with my partner sometime last summer.-
RIGHT? Ahh, I miss my drakes, now... even though I got very attached to my hippogryphs once I finally got one. Their run animations are so fierce looking.
What realm? O: I don't play anymore, sadly, since it became a bit tedious to tab out of the game constantly to respond to my better half through skype/yahoo (that and the game kind of lost its charm on me once I no longer had someone to play with), but I might go back to it some day. My better half said she's willing to try it with me once she's out of college and things calm down, though, so THAT'S SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO! (I hope she enjoys it... I'm kind of scared that it won't be her thing qoq )
But in any case, before I quit/took my ongoing hiatus, I started playing on roleplay realms, like Wyrmrest Accord. I would have started playing there sooner, since I love roleplaying and thinking up characters, but for some odd reason my brother was never willing to make the switch until it was a little too late. <:/ (even though he's really big on characters and roleplaying)
-
Man, hippogryphs. Those things have the most amazing animation, I swear. And that jump!
We play on Kael'thas. :D (which may never stop sounding hysterically unfortunate, come to think of it...) I hope you guys do get to play together (again in your case)!It's funny-- I freakin' love roleplaying in WoW, but I've never actually tried doing it on an RP server. Probably because I tend to be really shy about public roleplay; my main experience with group RP didn't go too well, sadly. :(
-
RIGHT? I love them so much, it almost makes me feel guilty 'cause I tend to neglect my nether drakes and rays because I just get, or got, so caught up in the hippogryph animation.
Oh my god, I just imagined your leupak Deo sitting on Kael'thas's lap while playing WoW, wheeze! What's your server like? The original server I played on before switching to WRA was Darrowmere(or as those of us from that server call it, "Darrowfail") was... well, the nickname speaks for itself.
BUT YEAH, I hope we get to play together, too! I'm hoping that getting to play alongside me will make it more enjoyable for her, since I don't know how well she'll like it. qoqNo yeah, I totally get that. I'm way too shy for public role-play too, and in the rare instances I gave it a shot, my characters usually just stood along the sidelines and observed because I didn't have the backbone to fully jump in. I mostly just role-played with my brother, if anything. Doing so on RP servers is just easier, because more people expect it. On our old servers, people would make fun of roleplayers if they found 'em. Bleh.
ALSO I'M SO SORRY IF I'M BEIGN TOO CHATTY/RAMBLY, I should probably try and sleep/nap soon.

I feel bad because mine is underused at the moment-- I was planning to use it as a primary mount for one of my alts, but...I'm terrible with alts. xD I was REALLY PROUD of managing to get one to level 20 because that's the best I've ever done on a non-main. xD Maybe someday.
Oh goodness, poor Kael. He's been through enough already!
It's... man, it's so weird actually trying to gauge servers for me these days, what with all the crazy realm-connection stuff going on. It's a smallish server, but I'm pretty fond of it. Most of the people hordeside seem to be really sweet so far, which is a welcome change from my original server. xD
And, well, it could always go like it has with us-- I introduced Sixy to wow last year, and she absolutely adores it. :D I hope it does, anyhow!Man, i'd love to watch people RP publically, though, that must be really neat to see. I hate when people give you a hard time about it; I've mostly been lucky so far, but I mostly keep to myself with it other than occasional shouts about elf stuff and whatnot.
And noo noo, you're totally fine! This has been fun, really. It's... a lot easier for me to talk to people without panicking and running away like this. :D
-
Oh god, same! My brother's so much better at raising alts, I'm pretty sure 20 was the highest I went, too. Well, aside from with Death Knights, but my DK on WRA ended up becoming my new main since I wanted to leave Darrowmere, sooo.... he doesn't count.
Aaah, that's true. I keep forgetting about those zones where servers collide. Still not too sure how I feel about that feature. But I'm glad your new server is treating you well!
I'm glad she enjoys it! With Nessa, I'm just.... I feel like it might be too much of a crawl for her, especially in the BC areas. She seems like she'd enjoy games with, uh... I guess faster paced? gameplay. Like we both Borderlands 2 together, and it's one of her top favorite games, and we also play Portal 2 and L4D2 (wow, lots of 2s) and they're more her thing. But I guess we'll see! I'll admit, playing WoW by one's self is pretty... abysmal, in my opinion, but I've always noticed that's a lot more fun when you've got friends playing with you, or at least one.
SAME! Though I'd feel slightly bad for evesdropping, I do enjoy watching others. And same, it really bites that people do it. <:/
But I'm glad you haven't had much trouble with it.Aaah, okay, if you're sure. qvq I didn't want to exhaust you or anything. I'm actually really enjoying talking with you, too!
And same, I don't know what it is but I feel a lot less, uhm. I guess rushed? to respond. I don't handle instant-message chatting very well, unless it's with Nessa.-
I hear you! I've always been really bad with dealing with repetition, so managing to get back up to level cap this second time around was a bit of a grind for me. I left my old account just before Cata hit. It was nice having company on the way up to 90, but all the stuff I'd done before already..hoo. I don't know how anyone can stand it over and over again!
And yeah, I'm not super fond of the crossrealm stuff at all. I was always happy on small servers; now, even the small servers have way too many people on 'em.
I understand what you mean there, too; that'd definitely be a big shift in gameplay! Friends definitely help, though. Fingers crossed for you!No worries, I'm totally sure. :) I think half of why I tend to panic about realtime chats and stuff like that is I tend to agonize over responses a lot; sometimes I need to take a little while to mull things over, and I feel like in faster-paced discussion people'll think I've lost interest if I take as long to think as I'd like. xD It's funny; I really do think I prefer leisurely discussions like this best!

Gah, same. It's extremely rare I ever enjoy doing something more than once. (the only real exception being Paper Mario, I don't know why, but I can play that game so many times over and over without hating it)
Oof, yeah, I'm hoping I'll be given enough time that by the time Nessa's willing to try it with me (which will be a long wait, 'cause I doubt things will calm down all that fast) I'll barely remember anything about how playing WoW used to be, so it'll be new (or at least somewhat in my case) and fresh for the both of us. sPEAKING OF NEW AND FRESH, I just got reminded of the model updates they're gonna be doing for the playable races and I'M SO EXCITED EVEN THOUGH I WON'T BE PLAYING FOR A LONG TIME!! They look so good so far, it's such an amazing improvement. Nessa's in college for 3D computer art, so I showed the befores and afters of what they got so far to get her opinion, and much to my delight, she was impressed!Yeeeah, I remember places getting overcrowded and hard to quest at because of the crossrealm stuff. There was another issue with it that I had, but I'm not too sure how to explain it... it has to do with the phasing at zone boundaries? which used to never happen. Unless they fixed that.
Yeah, but as you said, fingers crossed! qvqAhh, good. qvq AAAH, YES!! I used to have the same issues, especially whenever I used to add people to skype without really thinking too much about it, 'cause people would constantly jump at me for conversation, even if I was set to Do Not Disturb or just really wanted to talk to one person at the time, and then they'd expect me to respond fast and constantly, so it became a huge stress factor for me. But eventually I managed to get my contact list small enough and fill it with respectable folk who are familiar with my boundaries, so it's not as bad now. It helps to keep a side skype for days i just can't handle social interaction with anyone else but Nessa.
But yeah, same. My only real issue is that I'm prone to suddenly going silent at times, SO IF I EVER JUST DROP THE CONVERSATION UNEXPECTEDLY, it's nothing you've said, I'm just awful at holding conversations, normally. That, or I zonked out and fell asleep. (kind of surprised I'm still so awake tbh, wheeze)

Since they seem to be planning to do smaller expansions more often these days, you might just luck out on that! I don't know what the schedule they have in mind is going to be like, but they're apparently working on two at once now. 8o
And AAIEE THE NEW MODELS. I CAN'T WAIT. The first ones are so freaking good. I'm like OKAY OKAY CALM DOWN THEY NEED TIME TO FINISH BUT I WANNA SEE. Fft. Well, it'll make rolling new characters a lot more fun. :D
PHASING DRIVES ME MAD. ghsdkgsj. Me and Sixy pretty much always play together when I'm on, and I like trying to help her level her alts. We both have two-seater mounts, but you have to be suuuuuper careful with them because they constantly fling whoever's riding them into the distance when you cross over the boundary of a phased area. For a while we were like "oh it's just a glitch, it's cool" since usually it pops them back on after a moment.
But if you fly over a place where you're in different phases... "OH LOOK, IT DROPPED ME TO MY DEATH AGAIN." And blizz is just like "yeah that happens w/e"
If there was one thing I could change about modern wow, it'd be the phasing nonsense. I just. It was neat back in LK when there was only a little of it for special things, but it just... too much and it breaks everything and I can't.And that's okay! Actually, I'm totally in the same boat and I don't mind at all. xD (I conked out myself, there!) I'll do my best to keep up, though! :)

Aaaah, yes good, someone else who gave their dragons names and personalities! I felt so alone with that, especially during my earlier years of WoW. Not even my own brother seemed to do the same. <:I
I really love how you've given them different features and stuff, too. Definitely helps give them a sense of personality.
Do you still play?
