I was born September 9th 1973 in Munich, Germany. For those who wonder: No, I am not a an army-brat, I am a native german.
I remained in Munich till '92 abouts, then my father was transfered to Berlin and I had to head there too, despite my protests. There in what would become again Germans Capitol I first jobbed in the cleaning business, then was invited by the Bundeswehr (German Federal Army) to wear their stylish green clothes, and I had no other option than to accept their hospitality. Thus, I played soldier between April 95 and February 96, and it was not that bad. I had the fortune to get good scored in the test and was put into a nice place: Staffcompany of the 40th Tank Infantry Brigade. After that was over I became Apprentice in the cleaning business, and passed the Journeyman (Specialist) test in 98.
About the same time as I started the apprenticeship I joined the Internet community, by signing up with CompuServe. It didnt took long and I found my way into the CServe Roleplaying Forum, where I begun to spend more and more time.
1999 I tried Ultima Online for a month, but had to stop it, as I had neither a Credit Card nor a place to buy the time codes. I was interested in UO because I was then already an Ultima Fan. Just like Dealthagar am I an UDIC dragon: I'm Darkfist Dragon.
2000 I tried UO again, this time I was able to locate a place where to buy the codes, for $45 each 90 days. That same year I begun to feel a bit more for a fellow roleplayer in the chat rpg, and we decided to try an online long distance romance. Just after xmas she came to visit and my fate was sealed. March 2001 (exactly 1 year after I joined UO for good) I immigrated into the USA, and married that wonderful woman a few days later (April 2nd 2001). Being a roleplayer herself she was interested in what I play and thus I showed her Ultima Online. Now we have 5 accounts, you might know her as Madame Cassandra, Naissia Dragonbane, Sadira Revlof, etc.
Our daughter Kathryn Velma-Rose (short Kitty) was born March 10th 2004.
We also met a few UO players in real life already: The players of Arieus, Charles Everblue, Dargon and Legerion.
Oh yeah. It was Ultima VI- The False Prophet that started my Roleplaying interest. My music taste is mostly Oldies (50's to late 70's) and "Blackmores Night", thats a Renaissance/Rock band. I dont like sports, I dont even watch them on TV but I love to eat, which shows on my girth. Fortunately am I 6' tall that way I do not look as obese as I really am (and I am cokeholic).
Edit/Addon: I'm living in Lancaster, Ohio. Thats about 40miles SouthEast of Columbus, down US 33. _________________ Reality, the refuge of those who fail in RPGs
