Introductions!

Hey everyone and welcome the Introductions thread! This is a great place to get to know your guildmates, as well as share some info about yourself! If you are new to the guild this is a great spot to find some new friends!

Post some basic info about yourself, some pictures if you want, and any other information you want to share to make this an even more tight knit community!


Enjoy!

I guess I'll start this off..... My name is Alex, I live in California where I'm a cook by craft. I was recruited by Aghnod after joining up for a dynamic event, and we ended up grouping up and doing world completion for around 4 hours haha. I joined the guild soon after doing some instance runs with other members. Has truly been a great find for me. I love gaming with the new friends iv'e made, and I'm sure there's many more adventures to come!

Hey all,

My name is James I am a Laboratory Technician in Brisbane Australia.



Me growing some tasty bacteria


I am also a student with 6 months left on the clock, I am studying for a
Diploma in Interactive Media ( Game Design ) and am loving every minute
of it. I should be working on a phone application in the down time I have
until February but that legendary wont craft itself.



The Knights of Helios has found many wonderful people and as we have
grown I am amazed at the generosity and kindness that has helped us
move forward.

Many players have told me KoH is special and it's hard to find guilds like
ours, this made me realize how lucky it is to have such a great community
of players. My hats off to you guys, thank you for making KoH such a great
place to game!

As we grow I look forward to the challenges we'll over come together,
the Knights of Helios will become a juggernaut in time.

"Vinco Vici Victum"

Hello! My name is Jake. I'm an infantry veteran of the war in Iraq, and am currently a nurse. I'm not terribly fond of it though. I love Jiu jitsu and my kids. Thats essentially my life. I am finishing a general studies degree currently.

I happened to run into Grin and Ach during a dynamic event, received the guild invite and I've been hooked since. I enjoy gaming with many people in the guild, and enjoy the personalities of my fellow guildies. Gages amuses me to no end.

I've been MMO gaming since Shadows of Luclin release for EQ Live roughly 2001. And I do terribly miss the original EQ. I played WoW since roughly a month after release off and on.

If you're interested in seeing me and one of my passions feel free tocheck this vid out:

P.S. reggae is the best music in the world

Dudes. Persephone here. Or, as they refer to me out in the real world, Micheal. Well, sometimes it's 'shithead' or 'asshole' and even 'fuckface', but I earn those legit and with no small amount of pride.

But that's not what we're here to talk about. We're making introductions, like it's 9th grade speech class. Only hopefully with less acne and more wisdom. Probably not, though. Well, certainly less acne, but wisdom is hard to come by. Hell, the only thing I've gained since then and now is some grey in my beard. A youth misspent in the tasty world of drugs and alcohol has probably inhibited and even reversed any shot I had at being wise. Oh well. Dumb is a perfectly viable and honest alternative.

Where was I? I live in Alaska and install networks for remote bush camps during the nightless summer months. It's awesome, except when you get chased by pissed off wild animals. During the winter I do a little office work and basically just chill. But when it's dark nearly 20 hours a day, that's not hard to do. As a matter of fact, 'chill' is exactly what you do every time ya step outside. Dammit.

Me in Denali Park last year.


Anyhoo, my experience in MMOs is fairly deep but not all that wide. I've only played the two Guild Wars games as far as that goes. The first one I pattered around on for around three or so years. Strayed away from it, though, the last 8 or so months before the sequel came out. So, as far as Guild Wars go, I'm pretty savvy to it. Helps when you're in a good guild with good people to get some longevity out of a game.

Me on a glacier.


I don't have anything else to add. Which is good, because this was too long, by far, already. So two more Alaska pictures and I'll go away.

A bear.

Hi everybody. My name is José. I was born in Argentina but grew up in Miami. I currently live in Tampa. I studied Business Administration in college and attended graduate school for a Masters Latin American history. I currently teach as an instructor, basically teaching students how to "beat" standardized tests (SAT, ACT, LSAT, GMAT, GRE, etc.). I been playing guild wars for a long long time, even when people insisted it was dead, I still persisted. I played WOW for a bit and briefly played some SWTOR. When I am not achievment whoring or teaching I am usually playing tennis or basketball, doing some reading, or out with my wife Jennifer.


Errr also I totally failed in trying to upload a few pics on to this post.... if there was some sort of achievment associated with pic posting I might have figured it out...


Thanks!,
José

Hello everyone. First and foremost I would like to thank Tyrir Lux for inviting me to this wonderful guild in which has the personnel of amazing people. Not only is this guild of an active status, constant activities with guild members alike cannot define how awesome the people are in KoH alone. Rather it is the generosity and kindness I have continued to experience from everyone. A person of my nature simply appreciates the free and fundamental values in life: friendship, comradery, etc. I am sincerely thankful and honored to have a part in such a great group of diverse personalities.

My name is Ronnie (some call me Fei). And I am a college student studying philosophy. I have worked in a gym setting for 5 yrs and counting... have done sales to front desk to personal training. I am an active person who thoroughly enjoys physical fitness and martial arts. On my own downtime, besides video games, I like to read and write. I have deep interests in epic novels, conspiracy theories, religion & systematic theology, general & esoteric philosophy. I love being around family and especially my girlfriend!!! GAMES: Counterstrike 1.6 & Global Offensive, Team Fortress 2 & Left 4 Dead 2, Tekken & Streetfighter, and of course Guild Wars 2.

You can also find me on Steam- ID/SN- Feilong
If not GW2ing it up, we can headshot ppl and zombies!

My name is Paige, and I'm a 19 y/o college student at Kennesaw State University, in Georgia, USA.
I am planning on majoring in Economics, and am minoring in Italian for sure.
I just hit level 70. Almost there! I play a thief a majority of the time, a ranger some of the time, and am still trying to find another class I like. I want to try engineer.
I like cats, a lot, if you couldn't tell by Acharis' post.
My character names are Silent Deception (SD) and Song of Snow.
I love to read, play games, and spend time with my boyfriend. I am also a very amateur photographer, and as a result, almost all of my pictures are files too big to host here, so I'll share my (small) imgur album instead.

I also have no clue how to get the cool pictures you guys have.

Hello everyone, my name is Pat, as you might have guessed by my username.
I’m a college student in Kitchener, Ontario (Canada) currently studying mechanical engineering/robotics. I joined the guild late October, it’s a good thing I was playing guild wars at the time instead of studying for my mid terms. My main character is a human Thief by the name of Pat R (not the most creative name I know) and I’m also working on a Mesmer character called Alphonse. I’m not terribly talkative in game mostly because I have yet to figure out how to type and fight at the same time but I’m working on it.

Hi Everyone!

My name is Kasey and I am from Boise, Idaho USA. I work as the "IT Help Desk Guy" for a distribution company at night. I have only played gw2 for about 3 weeks now and im hooked. Previously I played WoW and EQ2 but grew weary of them with time thusly now I am here. I am new to the guild and I couldn't have asked for a better one. IRL I enjoy music, playing my guitar, traveling, more music, way more traveling, gaming, more gaming, reading, and sometimes more music pfft lol. I have linked what is probably the most grainy low res photo in history not to mention I was trying to keep a straight face for the photo. I discovered creating this post how few images I actually have that include myself lol soon I will replace this one with one representing the proper resolution for the 21st century.

Well that's about all I have, thanks so much for letting me be a part of this awesome guild. I look forward to many more good times in the future.




Heres me! Don't Laugh ok u can laugh a little is a horrible pic pfft ;P
