With word that all characters would be getting First Anniversary Free Respecs today, Margie and I spent last evening cranking out a truck-load of alts (which seems a bit ironic to do — creating new characters with an eye toward respecs — but, what the heck).
Lots of fun, and I didn’t take nearly the number of pictures I should have. Such may-someday-be-greats like Yore (the Lost Viking), Captain Antares (“To the future!”), Warbolt (“Zap evil!”), Stormdark (“Using the Dark Arts in the service of the Light since 1873”), Suzy Atom (all primary colors, all the time), and, last but not least, Scritchy-scratch (the inevitable cat girl).
That’s not all of them. And that’s not counting the alts that Margie was working on, many of which are fun, too.
I ended up filling up my remaining slots on Triumph (where other characters are already waiting in the wings) and spilling over onto Infinity. And, just to be fair, I ran all of them through Outbreak (and, in a couple of cases, beyond).
The problem is, of course, I want to play with them all. Most of them have some fun backstories. And I still have a number of vibrant and enjoyable alts already as my mains.
Ah, well. Someday …
As usual, I brought up the Global Chat Friends list when I logged in last night. I saw you were running a new alt (Captain Antares), and Margie had a new one on a different server! Then you disappeared, and later Suzy Atom showed up.
It was very bizarre.
Always glad to add a bit of surreality to your life.
