When I first started I wanted to be a master melee warrior, but that dream soon faded when I saw someone casting the Zorai racial spell. From that moment on I just wanted to be an "Avatar of Destruction." So I spent the next month and a half working that up, and I quit for a year once I got it ^^. But now I'm back and this time Melee is next ;)

The original concept for Kyerna was to develop her into an independant smuggling forager/hunter who would rely on ranged weaponry as protection and shun all magic.
That very first weeny kipee proved that is was a plan sure to fail.
Eventually she would turn her hand to many different disciplines in craft, fight and magic, making a name for herself on the good old Tryker refugee island.

It was only later when she found a mentor in Neun that she stuck with Heavy Armor crafting. One year later she is still trying to work her way up in said craft, that end-goal now slowly nearing. The smuggling is still part of her personae and it is only recently I decided she would pick up ranged fighting again now I feel more confident in her abilities. The independant foraging ... well, with two ecosystems mastered, that' s taking a lot longer than expected.

On the Faction level there has been a change as well from the original concept. She saw life as a firm Karavan follower, completely convinced that they would share better weapon technology with her if only she proved herself to be loyal enough. But by having been present at the Guild of Elias' heralding of the Comming of Jena, run-ins with covert Trytonists (who held a lot more lore on him back then than is available today after some of it got 'subtly' changed), a lot of exchanging ideas and various events later, she eventually came to see there were lies on all sides; which brings her where she stands today with two loyalties: the Federal State and the contract.

The original plan for Nilly was to become a powerful mage, in both healing and nuking, and then turn her hand to foraging/crafting almost wholeheartedly. I was very fond of healing, as I was a doctor three times over in SWG, and I loved being able to heal and buff my guildies and sell my crafted stims and buffs to other players (thus getting rich :) ) I soon discovered a passion for elemental though, and worked it up on and off to 250.

With this out of the way (and a little melee, foraging, and crafting on the side) I have, *shock*, devoted myself almost wholeheartedly to foraging and crafting. I have now managed to master a forage tree, something I never thought I'd do, and am now working on using it to provide for my guildmates and sell mats for profit. I am also trying to become a Master PR Forager, and this is taking slight precedence over crafting at the moment, but hopefully soon I will be able to really give my light armour and amps a blitz. Who knows if I will reach these goals? Perhaps I will get distracted and do those last 40 heal levels, or the last 70 or so melee levels. I might even work some afflictions!

Wow, I bored myself writing that. Sorry readers!

Well lvling with the likes of vira, teddy, dynz (the AoA and EoA bunch) we nearly all aimed for master melee/heal/ele as at the time it was the best thing for pvp (doubt anyone was even lvl 200 in afflictions) so i kinda aimed for master sword, heal and ele, got bored of sword at lvl 230 so did a bit of a crazy axe grind and mastered that within the week, digging/crafting is always something i hates, only ever started digging to help the guild i was in, couldnt care less about crafts as i always had the likes of scar, ish, snake, fasi and ani who could do everything for me (not to mention they where fairly good at it) i master desert forage and promised myself i would never dig another land.... that changed when i wanted supremes and there is only one way to lvl dig, 24/7 that way the pain is over faster, with the help of scar and fasi i hit 250 in about a week. Spear was kinda an odd tree to start and i have to thank nikapol of all people for making me start it, after dueling him and losing a few times i thought sod it and spent alot of time working it, paid off as it is prolly my fav skill

I wanted to be a healer to support my friends, and I wanted to have a lot of fame. Thought it would be awesome to have racial, faction and player fame *chuckles*

When i first started to play all i wanted to do was mele. i promised myself i'd never dig or craft after having spent many hrs mining in eve. i wanted ryzom to become my combat mmo. however i got sucked into the bunnies and fell in love with them instantly. just after joining teh 2 high lvl players that started the guild left and so it was down to us to keep it going. all the HO's picked a craft tree and i chose LA. i guess we never end up doing what we intended as i still have yet to master a mele tree :(

The first thing I wanted to be when I entered Atys was to become a healer, heal people, and become a good healer. I like doing healing, so its pretty much natural for me to do this (even my char in Neverwinther Nights is a healer, and I've only tried the single player game so far!). Getting the Healer title was offcourse my first goal.. Later I aimed for Master of Life, 'cause its one of the most wicked titles ingame :)

I eventually picked up foraging and crafting, amps for a start, and later a little light armor, and 2 handed axes. Still am a noob tho. On my first tp trek in Matis I fell in love with the forests and I decided I had to dig there, no further discussion! Still working on getting my Forest Forager title, tho its not a priority as I'm digging in the roots these days, and in the Lakes on occasion :)

Progressing in the ranks as a healer I soon realized I needed to practise my melee in order to raise my hp. Picked up my mass destruction weapon of choice, the long axe, and started hacking my way thru gingos and psykoplas and stingas and whatnot, and I plan to reach lvl 200 at that one day :)

My ultimate goal would be to obtain the title of Celestial Guardian, but thats a long term work in progress.. ;)
