 *the hood is lowered*
I am the player behind Rodlin Serim and Ami (my two favorite characters that I play).
My name is Mike. I currently live in Honolulu, Hawaii with my wife, two sons and a daughter. My sons are 15 and 12 and my daughter is 5 (which we all play with the exception of our 5 year old, but she knows about DTs).
I started playing paper D&D with my cousin, friends and only brother when I was in Junior High (I was always a ranger, go figure; I was outside from sun up to sun down roaming the country side). My brother was the brain and was always the DM. He was not always very nice, either. But now, he is a Naval pilot, ex-test pilot, with hundreds of carrier landings and a few missions in the gulf (never saw that one coming when we were growing up...I even broke his big toe once...and laughed about it).
Once the computer age started, I played some of the texted adventure games and then...The Bard's Tale. Since then, some of my favorites were/are the Ultima series (IV, VI and VII my favorite), Might and Magic and the Magic Candle.
I found Layonara from a co-worker (the player behind Rawkwin Valerius), actually, in October of 2004. I had just gotten to my second shore tour and we started to get to know one another and talking about online gaming. I had never played an online game so I was a bit hesitant. But one thing lead to another and before we knew it, six to eight of us bought the NWN game, registered in the forums and started playing. BAM! We were all hooked. We talked every morning about the events that happened the night before and what we were oing to do that night. As new people came in, we advertised Layo and got them addicted, HAHA. Then, it spread to the families. Great times! There are only a handful of days that I have not logged into the game since then (even if it was for 20 minutes to realize I was too tired to play).
When I graduated from high school, I left for Navy boot camp. I volunteered for Submarine Service, became an electronic technician. And now, as this shore tour wraps up, going back to sea. There goes all my Layo time.
In my off time, I coach little league baseball for the 11-12 year olds. Other hobbies include: SCUBA diving (which my oldest son is now my normal dive buddy), camping, computer gaming, hiking, and teaching/training/coaching firearms.
