R9 Eternal Blade Christmas Giveaway!

My first character was named Seven Verses and it was a E/N. Back in the day, when the 'dress-up' screen for new characters was different, I was looking through all the professions and genders, but the male elementalist appealed to me. He had blue hair and blue armor. And back then, when I was a total novice at making builds, he was a fire ele with minions. I would hit the charr with fire storm while my minions would charge in, hehe. Ahh, now that I think about pre-searing and Ascalon, it makes me want to make another Prophecies character. Well, the fate of the blue haired man was deletion...poor guy, I miss him. Well, I will always cherish the time we pwned Charr together.

My first one was a necro, I loved how necros look(Mohawk FTW!) and danced since I'm a Pantera fun and all. That was like 3.5 years ago or so and I remember playing as a blood/mm thing with some healing skills(classic >.<). I managed to get him into Dronknar's Forge and then I had problems adventuring furhter because the mobs were harder lol.

Then I met this girl which I don't even remember her name cause she quit GW and told me to make a warrior because warriors were considered better to farm and did more damage etc etc.. She had FoW armor and all and I gave in and made one which is now my main character. Shortly after I deleted the necro and after a year or so I remade one with the same name and all, only female this time. Imo Necros is the best class you can get and I it feels damn stupid I deleted him just because I cba to get titles on another char when I had already started on another >.<. Now I mainly play on my necro since I got bored of playing a war, a monk, ele, ranger in PvE, though I do enjoy playing a war in PvP.

That's about it, happy holidays and a happy new year

Sorry for double post

*cues fanfare music*

Ahem! ... My first guild wars character was my Warrior. When I started playing about 2 years ago, I wanted to start off with a profession that suited my style. I like to get into the heat of battle and really be up at the front, and I thought that the warrior profession would suit that just nicely, so I decided to make a warrior. At the time, I only had Factions, so I was limited to where I could go as far as campaigns and whatnot. Soon afterwards, I got the rest of the campaigns, and I took my warrior everywhere with me.

Now on to what I've accomplished with him. He currently has 7 maxed titles: Legendary Guardian, Guardian of Tyria, Guardian of Cantha, Guardian of Elona, Protector of Tyria, Protector of Cantha, and Protector of Elona. He has 4 sets of prestige armor, but at the moment has a mix consisting of an Obsidian Helm, 15k Gladiator's Chest and Hands, and Vabbian Leggings and Boots, all dyed white. He has a Charr Axe and a Draconic Aegis. I've spent well over a million gold on him, and I would not delete him even if someone offered me double that amount. His name is Branded Angel if any of you would like to add me.

Boo, D:

Well my first char wast the most ugliest warrior i have seen in 3 years of playing guild wars, it had piggy armor (1.5k droks) and it was w/mo, with the old-school build paladin
mending,healing breeze,cleave , good old times <3, But I always wanted to be an ele, so I made him w/e with flare MS inferno and stuff XD well that was it

Congrats to the guy who win the Eternal Combo,
and sorry for my spelling (A)

P.s.... Don't laugh <__<"

My first character was a ranger, Sood Ranger. I began right about when I quit RuneScape. I remember my first experience with the armor system of Guild Wars in Ascalon: I was making my money for one of those AL25 Fur-Lined sets, and my way of making money was selling Black Dyes for 8k and buying for 7.5k. After a while, I had enough money for my armor. I was ecstatic.

Then I noticed that the other armor trader was selling AL40 armor.

I wanted that armor, but I was in need of financial help. Also, I was wondering where people were getting their extremely cool capes. I joined a guild for the cape, didn't like it, and left. Then I joined Guards of the Gate [GRDS] because the recruiter offered to lend me money for the armor. I eventually worked my way up to officer, and to this day I am still in the guild.

Since his creation, Sood Ranger has remained my favorite character. He gets all the armor sets, titles (except Survivor/LDoA, but I refuse to re-roll him), etc. He's completed all missions in all campaigns and is so much fun to play on.

There's my first character's brief-ish history, hope to win the prizes, but if not, thanks for granting me the nostalgia that comes with looking back on my 3-year-and-still-going Guild Wars career.

Hmmm my first char was my warrior Snt Michael i made him firstly becasue i thought he would be an easy char to play and i wouldnt die so often lol(this was not the case) i remember i completed the game with no elite armor sets becasue i didnt get to droks until after completed the game and it was till 6months after i created him i found out about elite armor sets lol. I also remember trying to create my own guild not knowing what was going on that didnt turn out well so i joined the KISS allience for awhile until if fell apart so i tried some famring guilds then i thought id try make my own guild again like int he gold old times and now my guild is working alright and my first char now has 3 elite armor sets and i went off him for 1 year or 2 but now im back playing my war trying to get him some titles.
Good Luck All And tyvm for the generosity

IGN: Snt Michael

My first character was my female ele character named Pronoob Mage. I enjoyed presearing a lot since I was able to spam flare pretty much all the time and thought I was all that. Unfortunately I later learned that flare was pretty weak and I had to get rid of it. As of now I just got People Know Me and enjoy looking at my rainbow phoenix run around.

Finally some nice people on guild wars, Thank you for this opportunity

Well lets see, my first and still best character would be my ranger Deadly Arrow Killer, I know the name sucks but I love him anyways. I still remembering buying the game with a few of friends who recommended it and being that we were all broke at the time we decided to chip in our old games and sell them to buy factions.

Once i started playing i knew i had to make a ranger and for some reason I ended up with that awesome name. Ever since then Ive played my ranger nonstop, Ive beaten all the campaigns,which i bought later on, and Ive even managed to recently hit people know me just for the pretty rainbow phoenix . Along with some handwork and determination Ive also gotten him obsidian armor and chaos gloves,which needless to say has put me back to being broke.Even though Ive made new characters along the way I would still say that my ranger is the best character Ive had. With the addition of an eternal blade he would be unstoppable. As for ever deleting it him, NO WAY. My ranger will live forever and one day i hope to get him god walking( probably wont happen soon though >_<)

Thank you for reading my story,hoped u enjoyed it.

GL ALL AND HAVE A HAPPY NEW YEARS

My first character was a male warrior made a little over 3 years ago. Sir Tyler Durden, named after the character in Fight Club. Got through Prophecies with him, even did some Healing Hands griffon farming with him! Was a proud wammo at the time! Oh how i remember those days..10/10 sundering was perfect, sup absorption selling for well over 100k+, sup monk runes were always out of stock, etc! I still have him to this day for memories. He may be a little outdated, but I'll never delete him to remind me of my noob days, the prime of guild wars, and lastly what class I started from.

Have a happy holidays + happy new year everyone!

my very first guild wars character... was made about 2 years ago on my dads account (character got deleted after a few weeks because I bought my own account then).
it was a male warrior, and a rather idiotic person was controlling him in the beginning.
he was born under the name of Titan Silencer.
I started of in presearing, and I thought by myself that the world was very small -.- .
of course, in time, I did some quests, got to know some people and got the hang of it. after doing all the quests for professions, I chose to become a ranger as secondary profession... oh, a world of oppertunities opened for me, a swordmaster with the skills of the elite rangers, who could stop me?

I ventured through the woods and killed the demonical charr, Vatlaaw Doomtooth. the fight was easily finished by the work of Titan Silencer and his henchmen team, under the protection of Prince Rurik himself!!

then the searing came, ascalon got destroyed, and the world expanded for me. I vanquished all that stood in the path of me and prince rurik, to lead the ascalonians to safety, across the snowy, but treacherous Shiverpeak Mountains. we fought our way up to Jak's Bend, went through the Borlis Pass and reached the Frost Gate.

There, we ascalonians came to a major downfall in our history... Dagnar Stonepate, leader of the Stone Summit, brother of the great King Jalis Ironhammer, crossed our paths and wanted to stop us from ever reaching the gates of Kryta. The heroic Rurik stood up for us and waged battle with the evil leader, so we could get to safety. Rurik got killed that day, and until this day, the ascalonians still greef this lose.

We were tired, and our journey was almost over, but then a new enemy appeared... the living dead where walking the lands of kryta, awoken by the Undead Lich. the slew all within their path, like savages... the more we lost, the stronger they grew.
The White Mantle came to our aid at the gates of kryta, and led us to the safety of thier capitol Lion's Arch.

here the story ends for our hero, as he was ruthlessly slain buy a horde of undead. He used all his power to fight them of and to ensure the safety of his younger sister... Now he has joined his ancestors in the Underworld and left his beloved sister alone, a young heroic warrior, with the strength of a thousand warriors inside herself...

his sister is now known as The Fighting Lady, a hero of which tales will be told for centuries... how she avenged here brother and slew the undead lich, how she ventured to Cantha to aid them against Shiro, who had risen again from the mists and how she, stood beside Kormir, the sunspear leader, and killed the god abaddon... and witnessed the rise of a great, new god...

The Fighting Lady now is leading a rather restful life, on here way to become a God Walking Among Mere Mortals, but she has not, and will never, forget what her status had cost her, the death of her parents, her friends and most important, her mentor and brother, Titan Silencer, who saved her life by giving up his.

My first GW character... oh how long ago that was... a Necromancer by the name of Seria Lonen. I got through all of the first campaign using only henches, absolutely guildless the whole time. Did every single quest and side quest, got obsidian armor and all the fancy stuff. I'm acually sad I spent so much time on that toon, as I got rediculously bored with the necro profession. She was surpassed by my Ele, Avancia Remais, who has finished all campaigns incl. eye of the north and is my farming toon to date. So as it stands, Seria remains unused with only the first campagn completed, with so much cool stuff. This may be enough to spark my interest and go back to playing her, but then again, maybe not.

Thanks for being so generous in such a greedy game.

IGN: Avancia Remais.

My first character was my ranger created two years ago. Words cannot explain how excited i was when i first got Guild Wars Prophecies. I named him Armadas Blaze, Armadas because i heard it from Transformers once and Blaze because i always thought Blaze was a cool name. Although rangers were generally ugly characters i still liked him. He was black hair rugged type face and basic armor. From the past tittle screen we started of on our journey and it has made all the difference.

My first character was a female war of the smallest size named Shinka Angel. I started when Guild Wars shortly launched. I had completed every quests and mission with her through all the Guild Wars campagin (Prohphecies, Factions, Nightfall, EOTN, battle pack etc). I had created a guild fron the start which still exist till today. So to make my memory of my first character prominent, i had made him a God Among mere Mortals. but that doesn't stop at here cos i still prefer to play with this char rather than my other 8 characters. Eternal blade was one of my dreamed weapon which i tried to farm for it but in dissapointment. Well thats abt it.

IGN: Shinka Angel

My first character was a ranger/elementalist named Greenie the Grinch I was in the holiday mood when I realized that I had purchased Guild Wars months earlier and never opened the box. Too my dismay I was playing Guitar Hero 3 and Team Fortress 2 instead of even trying Guild Wars. When I first started I literally finished every single quest I received in the game in prophecies except the end ones in Sorrows Furnace and the Titan quests. It took a long time to finish every single quest. On my next character though I did not plan on the same. Heading through Ascalon with the melandru's stalker I captured as a quest (and still use) through Yak's bend and through Iron Horse Mines I fought the stone summit to make my way through. I skipped through Kryta and the Maguuma Jungle (which I never visit ever!!) through the Crystal Desert. Within I meet Glint and learned of the trials to come. Soon I was at the gates of Droknars Forge where I would recieve the armor I have not changed since. At the end of my journey or so I thought was the trip to the Ring of Fire. Later on I would get the rest of the games and finish them.

Nowadays I mainly go to pvp or some pve to get gold.

Whenever I play an rpg the first character I always make is the ranger mainly because of the range and damage. Stronger than casters I assume, but safer than warriors on the front at the time I though was cannon fodder. Still even now I have tried and used all the classes except warrior and I have no intention of doing so.

Win an E-blade with a higher chance than actually opening the Underworld Chest, where do I sign up?

Well, first of all, excuse me for my english :P I don't speak it usually and then I don't have much vocabulary, but I'll try to do it well.

My first character was born exactly 3 years ago (yeah, I waited to post today, that I had my first 3rd year pet a few hours ago , a f****** Mursaat xD), and he is called Arkarian The Dark (yes, an original name xD).

His history started in Tyria, in the Ascalon Kingdom, and he was a Necromancer new in this world. He has never played online games before, and then he was a little bit scared about this :P He started doing some missions arround that site for Armin Saberlin & company, but all those flowers everywhere and the bucolic landscape were too angelic for this necromancer Then, he decided to carry on with the quests, and finally he saw a new beautiful Ascalon, the post-searing Ascalon He bought a new armor there because his oldfashioned armor was to weak for that new place.

He liked so much that place that he became really involved in the Ascalon defense of Charrs. Then, Arkarian and Rurik became really friends. He fought in the Great Northern Wall, in the Ranik Fort and finally in the Nolani Academy. He was liking that Kingdom, and the war with the Charrs was being very exciting for him, but Rurik decided to move back to Kryta. Arkarian didn’t had any fear, but Rurik was so scared of Charrs, and that fear was the reason that did that his father, Adelbern, have exiled him.
The relationship between Arkarian and Rurik was so trait that Arkarian couldn’t allow him to go alone.

He followed Rurik to the Northern Shiverpeaks, and the cold site was so nice for a Necromancer. He could practice his death magic with some Stone Summits, but finally Arkarian got tired of the Dwarves, that were the whole day fluttering for his knees asking for more and more beer. These days were very important for him, since the whole beer that he drank caused several collateral damages in his mind xD

Then, Rurik and him stopped his daily dwarven parties with alcohol, sex and drugs and continued with his way to Kryta. They fought in the Borlis Pass and the Frost Gate, but there, Rurik died. I cannot describe the scene that took place with Dagnar Stonepate, the slayer, cause it has explicit violence and biological experiments, but I can say that I don’t know how he could survive xD

Well, finally, Arkarian and his little ascalonian army arrived to Kryta. They were thinking in resume his parties, but just after arriving, they became involved in a new war, the war between the White Mantle and the undead. At first, he didn’t know what faction defend because the undead resulted really attractive for him , but all his colleagues pushed him to defend the White Mantle.

There, he did deal with the Chosen, that were a real pain in the neck xD Arkarian finally hated them, and when 3 nuubs of the Shining Blade came for them, the real history is that he gave them the fuc*ing Chosen.

Then, in the Maguuma Jungle, after seeing how the Chosen died, another party started Evennia is also a party animal :P

After, he crossed the Crystal Desert, and finally he arrived to the Southern Shiverpeak Mountains. There, Arkarian had a huge odyssey, and this was on the Thunderhead Keep. (I said that I’ve never played online games before, so, because of that, I was still armed with the Ascalon armor xDDDD This is note a joke xD) Yeah, it was really an odyssey, because with the Ascalon armor, and 3 years ago, that were few skills, it was a really difficult mission, and then I needed 15 tries to pass it, and it was with a N/Mo with monk build and without elite skill xDDDD

After that, he bought his first (and current xD) 15k armor, he infused it and then he killed the Lich Lord. But the experience in the Thunderhead Keep made that I became tired of the Necro, and it became a storage character xD

Ty for reading this, and sry for the long post :P

PD. After, I created my monk, and this is still my principal character :P That blade would be so nice for her

As I was sitting at home on Christmas Eve Dreaming that "Santa" would bring me Guild Wars Prophecies, I pondered about the whole new world I was going to open in that little box. As I awoke on Christmas Day I went down stairs with my very eager younger brothers and sister. I searched my whole pile before I opened anything for a package the game's size. I saw 2 and the first one I decided to open was it. With the computer nearby I quickly installed the game and was running through the creating the character! I decided to name him Thane of Morgul, because it rang pretty cool to me. Going through the tutorial with my heart pumping, my parents have reminded me of the joy that was on my face. Ever since them I have been crazy on guild wars, with about 2,000 hours on this character. At first I made him a R/W not knowing that wasn't very smart for the world to come. So i changed his secondary skill to monk so I could rez and have more fun. Quickly trying to hurry my self through the whole campaign, with little money, weak weapons, and sleep deprivation was very hard. Finally on the 3rd of having the game I beat it. I also had collected an OK amount of money from the game to buy a q13 inscr. storm bow from a close friend for 5k. After beating the campaign on easy mode I decided to try it on hard mode, which I easily succeeded in. When Guild Wars Factions came out, I used almost all the money I had saved up to buy it and open up a whole new world. Again I beat the Campaign, which I believe was the hardest in a matter of 1 week. After taking about a month to beat it on Hard Mode I had enough money to buy a q9 perfect storm bow, which I did. Finally getting sick of just doing everything I had already done I created a new man name Thane of Morgal. Accidentally making him a Ranger I quickly logged out to delete him and make a Necromancer, I deleted Thane of Morgul, my first character. Angry At my self because Thane of Morgul had all of my money and wealth, I created him again and have so far made it to the ascension missions of Prophecies. I loved my character but one accident ruined my wealth and fun in the game for a while. Now I am back to having some fun as I also created characters in Nightfall. Even though I am still poor, I learned you can have tons of fun with money, which i am trying dearly to earn. I have learned that you can get whatever you want in life if you just keep trying through my first guild wars character which is something not many people can say. Thank You For Your Time and Good Luck Selecting A Winner!
Have a Nice Day!

my first char....a necro,they looked so cool.
i was dragged into GW by a friend of mine,which helped me in pre,he got me collector things and helped me lvl,anyways,i was a newbie then and i didnt know what im doing,i got out in lvl5 i think,anyway,i did all the ascalon mmish and got stuck in the shiverpeaks,not droks,yaks.
as a newbie would do i got new armor in every outpost.
after that i got a ranger,but as my friend likes to say "i dont wanna fight the back and slowly degen to death" but thats really another story.
the end

My 1st char is a female assassin, which was a kind of stupid 1st choice and I remember how when i1st started playing I though henchmen were actually real people so I didn’t go near them and couldn’t understand why I was finding the game so hard . SO basically most retarded char on GW oh yeh i somehow made my way into shing jea arena and was stuck there for 2 days not knowing how to get out lmao. However I did beat factions with her and use her to run guild people/friends to places or raptor farm.

well my first char was a jumble oof a couple elvish words that i cant remeber,i used him only for around 5 months,in tht time nvr even learned what farming was so nvr got over 30k ,then i was able to buy the other games and now have 6 pve chars only one not having beaten a game,but still i waste money to fast to save up alot >.<,and i spend to much switching farm builds about every week tht have about done every perma farm there is,and as of right now i farm uwsc,have switched to try almost all of the builds in it except for necro one,now switching to wastes,having to do all of norn and vanguard quests to get 2 skills >.< and i am rite now tryin to save up for e blade...but keep getting side tracked by other items and having to resrat again .

T'was a snowy, cold and depressing 15th of January 2007. I had just installed Guild Wars Prophecies and Factions (remains of a special Xmas sale ) and I was sick as hell. So the character came out all wrong. I wanted him to be a dark-haired black guy, but he turned out to be a pale-looking prick. Named Vlad of the Masons, he chose the fiery road of the Elementalist. Eventually, as a hobby, he began to tamper into the misty arts of the Mesmers, although for some time now he has partially shaved his head and decided to release Monk-ish potential. But he still prefers the pyro's way...
But back to his early beginnings... He started out in good ol' Ascalon, picking flowers and helping Gwen find her flute. After witnessing the destruction of the plains where he had grown up, he dedicated his life to helping his fellow man and to snogging his fellow woman. After a noobish start, with death being extremely common, he discovered that missions were far easier when done with a human party. So through the Shiverpeaks, where Prince Rurik bravely lost his life, he arrived in Kryta, where the Undead gave him some hard times. After departing for the Crystal Desert, he managed to Ascend and then returned to the Shiverpeaks, to aid the Dwarves in their final struggle. Departing for the Ring of Fire, the valiant Ele managed to thwart the Undead Lich and *drums* save Tyria.
After this, Vlad joined the RoCA guild, which has vanished inexplicably over time. With his fellow guildmen's help, he traveled to Cantha, joined the Luxons, united them temporarily with the Kurzicks and defeated Shiro Tagachi in a legendary struggle.
Following this, I bought Nightfall and guided this fiery tempered kid through Istan, Kourma, Vabbi then finally into the Abyss, where we got totally pwned by Abbadon's minions. With a little help from some veterans and a couple of warriors, we managed to put Abbadon where he belonged... THE VOID...
GWEN followed suite, of course. Same thing: Became the ultimate champion, pwned the Great Destroyer, blah blah blah. Currently,Vlad is desperately trying to impress the Norns and the Ebon Vanguard. He has met an Ebon Assassin who follows him anywhere he wishes. He has no choice... He resides in his build(Muahahahaha). Also, recently, he was accepted into the Penguins With Hand Grenades Guild and couldn't possibly be more content with who he is. Currently, he's also thinking about getting a proper build and go farming. But that's another story...

Well, my first character was a very unfortunate male ranger called Haden Noxious. Later on, I began to name my PvP characters Noxious/Nox, and that's the name I came to be know by by my friends.

Anyways, I created my ranger about 2 months after the game came out. I had heard the game was free and had never dabbled in MMO's, so I thought I'd give it a try. I was instantly hooked. I made it out of Pre-Searing after..WAY too long. Took my sweet time. I thought the game was fun but I wanted to prepare for the next level. Collected around 2K thinking I was set...then realized how much time I wasted since 2K was really nothing Nonetheless, I was mesmerized at how fast the game was. I met a guy, who's name I can't remember who taught me the basics of the game - he was a huge help to me. As I played, made friends etc I got more and more hooked. I think my fondest memory of that ranger was my awesome Ignite Arrow/Dual Shot bar...with Firestorm...you have no idea how excited I was to find Meteor Shower later on in the game.

To cut this ramble short, I started hating the ranger..especially after my warrior and necro (who is now my title character, and deleted him for reasons I do not remember. He never even made it to Factions, but he definately helped me discover the basics of GW. R.I.P

Good times.

Thanks for this, and happy holidays!

My first character would be my warrior. i just love something about the warrior hes seems to be brave and cunning. My first warrior is still the warrior i play today. His name is warrior of delo and ive beaten all campains with him and done anything worth doing on him. I feel he is a part of me and i will always love playing him. This game is just so vast i can only hope that i can continue to explore and play all that there is with him!

thanks for listening!

thanks for listening!

As many peoples, i choose warrior for my first character. I made her when i buyed prophecies + factions. As many ppls i was thinking Warrior with mending and healing breeze is really cool, and i can kill anything in whole game. Now i know what an noob I was Ofcourse this character is still on my account, because im too sentimental to delete her. She's called Al Yazir Imah Fathi, and she got elite gladiator armor, wichout headpiece coz, when i was buying this set it was unable to buy helmet.Ofcourse colour of armor is unable to get today... Simply combination yellow + green, but today you cannot afford same hue... I finish those two campagains with my sweetie but, after that my monk was born, and many other chars which i delete. Among those deleted chars was ritualist survivor r2 (not farmed - really), farmed dervish survivor r3 and paragon, many deleted chars but this Warrior is my first and oldest char on account and i never delete her. Now im playing on ranger and new ritualist and i know muuuuuch more about game, but if you choose me as winner im sure my sweet Al Yazir can raise up from ashes and can fight with most dangerous monsters in GW for glory and honour

PS
Sorry for mistakes and grammar, I know its bad, but im not native American or English...
I hope u enjoy my story, If you want to know more details about my first char feel free to pm me in game or via guru PM

EDIT:
Ofcourse i must forgot about something
I wish happy new year to all players

My first character was a Ranger by the name of Mistress Smiley, now how I got that name is pretty simple. About 2 months after Guild Wars came out we got the game, now back then Chaos Comics was still around and I was a big fain is Smiley the Psychotic Button. Being a male I figure the best think for me to do is make a female character, so I did that with the name Mistress Smiley, the name Smiley come from The button. Since the game was very new and I didn’t play beta I figured the ranger was the easiest character to play with. I spent a long time in Pre at level 12 and didn’t know that their was even something called Post. Boy was I wrong so after that I went to post and started working on getting through the game with this character, I had friends who I found out later who had played beta and that made the game worth playing even more. Then told me that I need to get newer armor, didn’t even tell me about 15k armor and that I need to get to level 20 and that type of such. I still have this character even today, you can see me on her at the Jade Quarry. She is my first and original character.


P.S. Good luck to everyone else.

so......my first character. That would have to be "The Melkor" a Me/N that I made and got all the way to LA with before abandoning for the next year and a half to play with my ele and warrior and all the rest. After about a year and a half, while doing some AB, I got worked over by a Mesmer while playing my Warrior and decided that maybe I should do some PvP with mine, so I played about 20 or so rounds before realizing that because I never took him past LA I was missing about 30 points of attributes lol (I laughed so hard I blew soda out my nose). So onward I played till I got the rest of my points and discovered that Mesmers really do kick serious @$$. Well thats the tale of my first GW character whom I still play today.

To any who are reading this Happy New Year, and please don't mock me if we run into each other......

Also Thank You Spellbreaker Frazzy for doing this (even if I don't win). It's good to see players who still do nice things for people.

My first character was a mesmer since i read that they used illusions and i thought that was pretty cool. At the time i had no idea what a mesmer did except that they were people who use illusions. Since she had something to do with illusions i decided to name her Alusia Mindspinner. I really liked that name and i hoped that other people would think that my name suited my class and was cool too lol . During presearing I thought my character was the best! Degeneration quickly killed enemies and being a me/e meant that i could use illusions and fire! It took me awhile to get out of presearing >.> (like almost a week since i really didnt know what i was supposed to do). After i got out of presearing i started to notice that Alusia wasnt killing as fast as she did before(because my attributes were spread out so much ). I eventually got enough money for the 15AL armor at ascalon (i had no idea that there were two different armor traders, i thought they sold the same except that one was cheaper lol). After getting into kryta i noticed that i needed to get new armor since my old armor looked ugly so i made my own little farming build to farm the mergoyles outside of LA . Eventually i managed to get a free droks run (someone was offering a free run ^^) and i had to farm up even more to get decent droks armor which took me forever! After getting enchanters armor i eventually made it to Augury Rock, i started to notice that people really didnt invite me to their groups and kept saying it was because i was a mesmer. I didnt know what the problem was. I remember watching ha and gvg back then and noticed that not alot of mesmers were using illusion skills and when i saw mesmers that did i would get excited at the fact that we both used conjure phantasm. Since i didnt have enough money to get new skills and no character slots open (my bros used to play back then) i decided to delete her. But after awhile i noticed that none of the characters like Alusia, it was fun nuking as an ele and healing as a monk but not as fun as playing alusia. So after about a month i remade her and now she is my most played character

My first character is my elementalist, and I've had her for 36 months. She is my main and is the one who is spoilt the most!

I started playing Guild Wars in it's very early beta, and the game was so refreshing, and I fondly remember Ascalon as being this wonderful fairytale landscape that I'd never seen in a game before. I was over the moon to be in the beta, and I instantly fell in love with the music (especially the old log-in screen) and I still wish it could return.

So there I was, in the beta as an ele and I really enjoyed the class, more than any other. They have the nicest armour sets, facial models and animations. After the beta ended I bought the game a few months after release, and created my ele to which I play to this very day. She's been to every continent in the Guild Wars realm, been to every dungeon, seen every fun filled event and is still discovering new places.

I have fond memories or running into combat and being squished having realised the fragility of my chosen profession. I've dabbled with all the elements but always come back to fire. The good old days of mixing dyes, farming in the desert and generally having fun. My first 15k set was the result of a Crystalline sword I got one day, and when it sold for 185.5k I was gobsmacked as it was more money than I'd ever had, back when I'd only been playing for a few months. I bought an elite set and dyed it the original black, and it remains that elusive colour today, and I'll never change it. Over the past two years she has been rewarded with many other lovely things, all earned through hard work, good friends and a little bit of luck.

Well. my very first characters name was Izodn Ashwood. and he was a hammer warrior, now, i say 'was' because i deleted him, long before anyone knew there were birthday presents, so my first present, took place 3 months after everyone else's, when all the prices died down. Izodn, never got out of pre, I just found it so cool so... green, lol. anyway, i deleted him, now my oldest character is a 32 month old monk. nothing big, thought i would try and register for the set. thanks.

aah, nice memories. I went on a visit at my cousin's house, and his dad showed me gw for the first time and i loved it immidiatly. me and my cousin spent so much time in pre-searing, building up a team of N/E (my cousin) and
E/N (me). we completed everything together, but then i buyed my own account (they had 2 accounts, i used to play one of them when visiting them). I made a new ele called Sacer Ignis, and many other chars too. the new ele was the first char where i achieved canthan grandmaster cartographer. but then, i found out there was a title called Legendary Survivor..and i restarted all chars (not even all of them are restarted ).
first i made a warrior (my main now) Dulcis Invidiis, my frist legendary survivor , great memories, it was a prophecies character ^^. i'm happy with 4 legendary survivor, i restarted my ele too, but gave it the same name.
now it has obsidian armor (farmed with the blood and sweat of the previous on..) and it also is my record on legendary survivor ->5h^^. yes..it were nice memories, back in the time of being the nice noobie, together with my cousin ^^ May the deleted chars find rest forever..

merry christmas and a happy new year!! ^^

Excited to see the winner, hope I am one of the 10

Rats =( knew I didn't stand a chance at winning

Grats to Devils Shield I thought it was a bit humorous =). Also, grats to those who made it on the list, the Fresh Prince one was awesome except for a few parts that didn't make sense lyrically XD .

Just a question though, who gets the shield?

Awesome! I made it to the top 3! Thanks for the contest and Happy New Years!

-KoKoS- the sad winner.... =/

After some inspection, I now believe this contest was a complete hoax. The "winner" devil_sheild joined guru december 2008, and I have been unable to contact him to congradulate him.

In addition, his post (#136) is garbled english with various misspellings even of his OWN character's name. In addition, I don't think "calling people jews" and being an alcoholic is something an honorable character would do.

Forgive me if I am way off base here, but I believe this entire contest was rigged, because the op did not want to give up something so valuable. I have tried to ask Spellbreaker Frazzy (the OP) about this, but he has not replied.
