Allo folks!
I'm Rivalain (Riv). I've played MMOs on and off since the EQ days, and was long ago and far away in the land of Burning Crusade, in a reasonably progressed raiding guild. Since then I've dabbled in Lineage, Aion, TERA, both Guild Wars....Probably a few others. I've been a Final Fantasy fan since the old Nintendo Power FF1 guide, and I played ARR in beta for a spell, but ending up quitting and coming back shortly before 2.4 (and have played ever since!) I main DRG, with MCH and DRK as my secondaries. I recently transferred to Leviathan from Adamantoise, which is notably smaller than Levi.
Outside of MMOs, I play a goodly amount of tabletop RPGs (Pathfinder, D&D, Shadowrun, the list goes on..) and a number of instruments (guitar, bass, keyboard, and am the process of acquiring a lute and a mandola) ) I once composed the score to a play centered around 80s nostalgia and video games. I listen to pretty much every genre, though I began life as a metalhead. \m/
I'm also a high school English teacher (sophomores/juniors, all of whom are incredibly entertaining).
That all said, looking forward to meeting you all!
