Mundane Occupation: I'm a student at Illinois State University, Class of 2011 majoring in Political Science and History. I want to move on to graduate school and study law, from there, I think I want to jump into the international law scene, working at a consulate or an embassy, especially in Europe.

Belegarth is a passion of mine. I like to style myself a scholar of sorts, and as such, I try to find out as much about things as possible. I like to listen to old stories, hear about ways to build weapons, armor, etc. Wolfpack is an awesome realm filled with awesome people, it's as simple as that. I know I lucked out in terms of realms- as I understand it, not every single realm is as open and helpful to new fighters as Wolfpack has been. I think this is a change that the veterans are trying to institute, but either way, it's still awesome. I consider myself fortunate to have many good people here to help me, like Sir Kyrian, Sir Fox, Sorcia, Joyous, Digoza, Catlin, and many many more. Not to mention, I've met the majority of my friends at college through Wolfpack- like Caitir, Cathaldus, Darsil, Irie, Lark, Teeru, Pidge, Wysper and quite a few others. Through the openness of Wolfpack, I've met others like Big Jimmy, Kayle, Bo, Bruder, Trystan and of course, others. I hope to meet as many people as I can.

I won't lie, I would like to go far in this sport. I want to be proficient in all weapon styles, so that if I find myself with just that, I won't die within seconds. While of course it is lofty, I would like to have a "Sir" in front of my name somewhere down the road. I fully agree with Kyrian's philosophy on knighthood and I'd like to see that in all knights. While of course I have other goals in mind for myself in Belegarth, it would be a dream come true to be knighted, of course this would be ten or so years down the line, perhaps more, I'm content to wait.

I'm a Guard to Clan of the Hydra at the moment, and I couldn't be happier in a selection of units. The only downfall to the unit is the symbol is so damned complicated to put onto garb or weapons!

Well, that's enough of my rambling on about myself- what can I say, I'm gonna be a lawyer, talking comes with the territory.
