Tawyn (Silver Hand – RP) was the first ever character I rolled in World of Warcraft and holds the title of being my “main”. She is responsible for my love of (some might say “obsession with”) huntering.

Although I go through phases where I don’t spend as much time on her as my alts, she will always be my favorite character I think.

Roleplaying-wise she is quick-witted and somewhat rash; fond of a good drink and a good joke and a good rifle, and fiercely protective of her “adopted home” of Stormwind, which, in her opinion, is far more exciting than her homeland in Northern Kalimdor. She never goes anywhere without her Wolfslayer Sniper Rifle and one of her beloved pets.

Her pets are Tux the Strigid Hunter, Locke, formerly Rak’shiri, Eltanin the Soulflayer, and Wash the Mottled Raptor.

Lunapike (The Venture Co. – RP-PvP) is a character that I made for three reasons: 1.) to give Horde a try, 2.) to give PvP servers a try, and 3.) Because I originally made a warrior for that purpose and quickly realized that I wasn’t happy playing something that wasn’t a hunter, so I rerolled.

She was born on the Wildhammer (PvP) server to play with a friend and his guild but when the guild dissolved a few months later I transferred her to The Venture Co. (RP-PvP) because I missed being in a roleplaying environment and I haven’t looked back.

She was my second character to hit level 70 in Burning Crusade, allowing me to truthfully say that I had two level 70 hunters, something which I had been wanting to say for a reeeeeally long time.

Roleplaying-wise she is very inquisitive and has the mind of a researcher: she likes exploring and learning about the world around her. Thunder Bluff is her home on Azeroth but she maintains very close ties with the Mag’har orcs of Garadar and can often be found there during her travels in Outland.

Her pets are Alyosha the Springpaw Stalker, Ivan, formerly Arikara, Dmitri, the Skettis Kaliri, and Serenity the Marshlight Bleeder.

Tamaryn (Silver Hand – RP) was made because one day I decided I really should seriously try something that is not a hunter. I also realized that maybe I should try something that is not DPS to help me in that endeavor. So Tamaryn the druid was born knowing that I could heal or tank with her someday. It didn’t take me long to realize that I really enjoy healing so I have decided that she will be a tree.

On occasion you may catch her spec’d Balance for ease-of-leveling, and being a moonkin is admittedly pretty fun (other than, well, the inevitable mana issues), but in the end she is definitely going to be a healer… and that is how she spends most of her time.

I’m still hammering out her RP but at this point I view her as a rather young character with a somewhat distressing childhood and a lack of parents (whether through death or unavailability, I’m not sure), who left her home early on to spend time with the dwarves and humans of Loch’Modan and Lordaeron. After the Third War she decided to stay there permanently to aid people with the unique druidic gifts she had been cultivating (ba-dum-psh!).

Althalor (The Venture Co. – RP-PvP) is… my third-highest level hunter, and also the highest-level male character I’ve played. He’s getting playtime partially because, well, I love leveling hunters, and partially because I love his backstory. The interesting thing about him is that I’m not a particularly big fan of Blood Elves overall, but… yeah, backstory. Oh and he’s cute. =P

RP Time: Althalor is the son of High Elven parents who were killed by wild beasts while traveling in the wilds of Kalimdor. Their little son survived thanks to a magic spell and he was found– and raised– by Tauren.

Today he can be found fighting to protect his home of Thunder Bluff and the Horde in general, passing himself off as a Blood Elf when needed to avoid much confusion. He feels a special kinship with the lions of Kalimdor’s plains and his Tauren family has noticed his prowess with a gun; hence his decision to follow the path of the Great Hunt.

His pets are Kolya, formerly The Rake, Regulus, formerly Humar the Pridelord, Alnair, formerly Echeyakee, and Chakapas, the Vale Moth.

I have many, many other characters as well (of which the overwhelming majority are hunters) but for the sake of space, only characters that have successfully hit level 30 and obtained their first mount are listed here.
