About Me

The name Erish is a shortened version of Erishkigal, the Summerian goddess of the underworld. She was the sister of Inanna, goddess of the heavens, which is another one of my default online nicks. Inanna was already taken, so Erish I am. And yes, I am definitely female.

I'm one of the many former Knighthood players who found their way over here, and am absolutely loving this game. So much so that I made myself give it up as part of a two week class exercise on abstaining from addictive substances and behaviors. Thankfully, I survived and am now back to continue playing hard, having fun, and making new friends as I go.

In real life, I'm a Brit who moved to Michigan about 4 years ago, having spent 9 years in a long distance relationship. My wife and I are blissfully happy, though I still need to figure out a way to stay in the country. I'm currently studying for my Masters in Counseling degree, and hope to work with PTSD and trauma survivors once I graduate.

Game History

I was brought here by Binarus and signed up on April 11th. Had I known about the monthly rankings, I might have waited for three weeks and joined on May 1st. He helped me zoom up to level 5 in about 48 hours, and I joined Dark Siege Academy on April 12th. It's a wonderful place to learn as heaps about playing in a very short period of time, get access to great resources and meet some amazing people.

On May 17th, I reached level 30, and joined Dark Siege. I may be biased, but I think it is probably the best guild out there, in terms of the friendliness of people in the guild, the help that's available, the wide range of resources and expertise that guild members are willing to share, and the sheer fun and silliness that can take place in guild chat. I wouldn't ever be anywhere else.

My in-game goals? To have fun, do as many quests as I can, hunt as much of my own gear as possible, and share what I've learned and the resources I have with newer players. Oh yeah, and that leveling thing too.

Oh, and my gorgeous avatar is also thanks to Binarus. I owe him big-time.

Player vs. Player

I do not do PvP, but may occasionally take a bounty to get the rating I need for a quest. I will happily return gold + repair.

Attacks will be bountied if you:

  • fail to return lost gold + repair
  • attack more than once
  • hit with more than 10 stam.
