I joined NS in 2012. For a while I jumped from tiny region to tiny region, living up the good times when the founders had the time to make the places awesome, and crying over every time they died. I rarely did things; you might call me a social butterfly I guess. I did start two newspapers in a couple of the longer lasting places I joined, served as delegate once somewhere, did RMB topics for a while, but mostly just hung out. I was usually a raider then, although I think I helped defend some friendly regions a few times.
I joined The Grey Wardens in like 2017 and I think that was when I realized that NS was a lot bigger and connected than I had thought. I became a Discord junky, met people from all over the game, and had a lot of fun. Right now I'm in a lot of places - some big ones, some small - and I continue to do what I've always done: hang out and try to act like I'm chill.
