Time for a change of pace. After my recent… failure to perform, I decided to take a couple of weeks off (just doing daily transmutes and making the various cloths on my tailor). Well, time’s up. I’ve decided to dust off one of my sadly-non-dwarven horde-side alts while I get back into the swing of things. (I’m looking at getting returning to Mingle with 3.3, but that could be anything from a week to a month away yet)
So, meet level 40 Troll Rogue, Dinglemouse the first. Yes, my first named characters were in fact horde-side. (There’s also an Undead Mage named Kringlenouse, but he’s only level 29, and a level 47 Undead Rogue named Ringleflouse on another server also gathering dust)
The first thing I did, of course, was to visit the barber. (I think that’s what happens when you revisit a long-retired toon: you look at it, and go “What the heck was I thinking - that haircut (or hair colour, or skin colour, or tusks) looks awful!”) The second, of course, was to go pay for riding training.
After that, of course, I had to go kill turkeys.
I’m not sure where I’ll go next – it’s been a long time since I’ve been out in the field on a non-dwarf, and even longer since I’ve done any horde-side quests. Perhaps this is the “something new” that’ll let me re-kindle my love for the game – or at least, to get me playing again in preparation for 3.3, and an eventual return to raiding on priest Mingle.
But there’s one thing that’s certain: there’s still life in this old game – it’s the 5 year anniversary of WoW at the moment, and in just under a month it’ll be my personal 4 year anniversary of starting the game.
Now to find the Undercity flightmaster: there’s exploring to be done!
