Bravetank finally reentered the dungeon world today after quite some time away. I decided to go into my old favourite Dire Maul – Gordok Common. I’ve been in there so many times some of the mobs no longer attack me and instead give me a little wave. I have after all been crowned their king … Continue reading »

Celebrating the hard stuff
I have been totally neglecting Bravetank the last few days and I feel dreadful about it. But it has been for a good reason. Instead of sticking with my plan to do Hallow’s End stuff with my arcane mage Styleesh I’ve actually shown some respect to my highest level and longest serving character Terema and … Continue reading »
Broken Hearted
I’m sad today. Very sad. Broken-hearted you might say. Yet for some reason I think coming on here and typing will ease the tightness in my chest. Let’s hope so because I can hardly breathe right now. My sadness and heartache are work-related. Wow. Sadness. Heartache. Broken-hearted. These are big words for work but work … Continue reading »
A Styleesh Hallow’s End
Ooooh Hallow’s End begins today 18 October (actually because of time zones not sure if that is actually my 18 October 2011 or someone else’s that begins tomorrow, or another from yesterday, next week or last year). I’ve never done much festival stuff in WoW. To be honest I’m not that much of a traditionalist … Continue reading »
The Run of the Mill Slightly Dubious Guys Part 1
The Run of the Mill Slightly Dubious Guys (a homage to The Usual Suspects – Azeroth style) Part 1 by Bravetank SCENE 1 The water of Stormwind Harbour hits the surrounding wall – making a dull hypnotic sound. The jetty creaks. There is a flap of wings in the distance. A single match lights the … Continue reading »
Greetings Friend
I make it a point to always say “Hello” when I go in a dungeon. I used to say “Hi” but I’ve discovered “Hello” gets more responses (more detailed statistical analysis to follow). “Hello” breaks down social barriers in a way “Hi” doesn’t. Have considered other greetings in the past. Seen the odd “Yo” but … Continue reading »
The Righteous Fury Poltergeist
A while ago I posted about a dark day in my tanking life – actually they’re all pretty dark seeing as they’re all set in dungeons (boom boom- my jokes are reaching new heights I know – not good heights admittedly but new ones anyway). I had forgotten to put righteous fury on and was … Continue reading »
Obsessions and Addictions
I’m easily obsessed with things. My husband hears me squeal at the computer and clap my hands like a seal and he immediately knows he’s lost me to some new fad or idea. Currently it’s writing my own MUD. I have enrolled in The Builder Academy to learn how to do it. This has caused … Continue reading »
The Tanking Road to Recovery
What is it with people and speed in the game? Last night and this morning I’ve been in groups where one person has wanted to blitz through at the speed of light. What are they rushing for. Life is but one long journey to the grave after all- why hurry there? Actually really enjoyed last … Continue reading »
Personal Identity and WoW
I meant to say yesterday (thank you for the prompt Issy!) that I have an article up on the excellent Mana Obscura . Over the moon obviously to guest post there. It’s about personal identity and WoW (& a litle bit about my diet!) Continue reading »
