It fills me with the joys of being young and full of goo… or chocolate-coated biscuit sticks.

The man behind the song.

I’m sure that anyone who has heard of “Still Alive” or “Portal” or many others, has heard the name Jonathan Coulton. Wikipedia has this information on him:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Coulton

I have also come across his website:

This is the page where you can listen to and buy many of his songs.

I find many of them to be easy to listen to, yet also quite strange and even disturbing in the lyrics department. But honestly, ya gotta love it!

Shrine of the Fallen Warrior and the Charge of the Illustrator.

I used to pride myself on my ability to draw, I still do. But after I found myself standing, in-game, on a rather anonymous hill in The Barrens on the continent of Kalimdor; stareing at this rather unusual erection dedicated to a fallen avatar. It was the Spirit Healer (with wings of course) that attracted my attention at first, but after spending time around it and reading the initials inscribed in it “MK”, and the name given to the Spirit Healer “Koiter”, I became quite curious.

I began to look into information involving this word Koiter and World of Warcraft.

It was then when I found this:

I read the entire thing and began crying. Being an Illustrator it hit rather close to home for me.

What’s in a name?

I’m a character artist, and while creating a look and persona for a character, I tend to come across that tricky situation where I can’t find a good name for him/her/it. Thankfully I have friends who get just as bored as I do and start meandering around the internets and eventually stop after finding an interesting site.

I owe this one to Writer:

It’s quite useful. Try it out for yourself.

World of Warcraft

Almost everyone who has either meandered over to the electronic store shelves, paid a visit to a local video game shop, or has a kid who is or who knows internet-savvy friends has at least heard of this game. (heck you don’t even have to be a kid… but you know how that stereotype goes)  World of Warcraft is, if not one of, the most popular Massive Multi-Player Online Role-Playing Games on the market!

And I would like to know all about your adventures, character, guilds, or even just funny/cool/interesting stories you’ve had or heard about involving World or Warcraft, or “WoW”, as many people abbreviate it down to.

As for myself; you can easily find me controlling an avatar named “Maileigh” (currently) on the following servers: Arathor, Thunderhorn, Zul’jin.

“Kiokulemira” on  the Dragonbligt  server.

And “Jine” also on Thunderhorn server.

… or was that name “Jian”?
