hello, deep end
Aug. 11th, 2007 03:25 amIt's done. After more than a year of trying and the promise of Scrabble in exchange, Brandon finally roped me into World of Warcraft. I "rolled," as the kids say, a gnome mage, Rutabella, agreeing to get her to level 5 (of 60).
But then she was so cute with her gigantic pink pigtails and the silly name (she's close to the ground and therefore likes root vegetables, you see) and the big fireballs she casts. And there are quests and story arcs and random drops of cool gear and beautiful scenery. I can't explain the appeal, not really, except decking things 10 times your size before it even gets close enough to touch you feels awesome. So if that makes sense to you, come and play with meeeee on Silver Hand.
