>.>;;; <.<;;; what? I totally didn't forget/get distracted from getting my character back up and sorted for this, I donno what your on about. [hider=Chiziru] [b]CS: Adventurer[/b] [b]Appearance:[/b] https://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/panzerwaltz.gamepedia.com/9/98/Type_97_(Shinoto)_full.png?version=404e07176f9ac90ad1a89c05f0cf881a (ignore the tank cannon) [b]Name:[/b] Dante Alexander [b]Username:[/b] Chiziru 'Of the Phantom Blade and Holy Mirror' [b]Age:[/b] 24 [b]Race:[/b] Fox Tail [b]Class and Level:[/b] Samurai [b]Subclass and Level:[/b] Mystic Rogue [b]Guild:[/b] N/A [b]Bio:[/b] Dante started playing Elder Tales due to his now Ex-Girlfirend. She'd been playing it for a couple years before they'd met and even had a guild. Dante went through a few characters before settling on Chiziru, liking being on front line and all the damage a Samurai could lay down per hit. Once he settled on a class, he was formally brought into the guild and His Ex and thier guild mates and grew into the off tank role, and from there starting reaching for gear and stats to spec Chiziru toward 'offenive tank', cause if she wasn't gonna worry about holding agro unless adds are around, then he figured she should be more about damage. For 2 years this was the norm, and for that 2 years that was enough. But personal issues, both in and outside the game, caused him to leave not only the guild, but the game for almost a full year. Dante's return to the game didn't come with the noucement of the expansion, though, In fact i'd come back to the game a good year before it was annouced. It was his mom's new husband, and his new step brother. Both he really only tolerated for the sake of his mother, his step father more then his step brother, but he found both overbaring, demanded more of him then he felt ether had any right to. Though the return to the game was slightly complicated by his change of region. Not long after he left the game orginaly he and his mother moved to Japan due to his mothers job, as she'd been hired to teach english to Japanese students, and her hooking up with, and then marriing a local pretty much sank any chance of going back to the states any time soon, so he'd need to transfer things over, even going so far as to change the name and look of his character to match the change in region, though in truth, this was to further distancing him self from his Ex and her guild. From there, he spent the time before the launch of the new expansion 'getting his legs' back in game and collecting the passive, 'Arcane Might', which is from a special quest chain in the 60s, due to Fox Tail's not really being the best choice for tank roles due to them mostly getting bumps to their INT and WIL stats on level up. Relearning his class, and his skills which didn't take long, and while he wasn't 'raid ready' yet, he was more then ready for non raid end game content, content he would use to get back into shape. [b]Personality:[/b] Pre-Apocolypse 'Chiziru', specifally, post region transfer, came off as cold and distant, due mostly to the fact Dante was really there as a form of escapism. Communicating when needed while in a dungeon or some low level raid, but not much else. Before 'the break up' with his Ex and his old guild, he was much more outgoing and open, chatting and cracking wise durring dungeons and raids. [b]Equipment:[/b] only listing the stuff the matters, the rest is just high level dungeon drops of no real note.
