When you want to be a Jedi you have a choice between Knight or Counselor. I'm going to be an knight. Plenty of women are Jedi Knights. I can do this. That's when Raechel was born. She is a human who happens to look gothy. Who says you can't be a vampire in Star Wars?
I have my partner who has started a Jedi Knight as well so we can go up the ranks together. The problem we didn't see is that when you enter an area that is a designated as a class mission, only one person of that class can go in that instance at a time. I know I just put out a lot of SWTOR babble there. What it comes down to is I had the choice to do missions separately from my partner (that wasn't sounding like a whole lot of fun) or I could start a new character. I chose to start a new character.
I still wanted to be a Jedi so I chose a Counselor, then I had to pick if I wanted her to be a DPS (Damage per Second) or a Healer. Healer it is. I figured that it would be good to do something else for a change, instead of all the fighting. Now here's the fun part. I'm at the computer when my young daughter asks me what I'm doing. I tell her making a character. "I want to help," she says to me. I agree.
First the name. My daughter wanted Teresa. I couldn't get that one because it was chosen already so I played around with the spelling and I got Teraessa. Little Bit was not happy with the name. Why couldn't she have the same name as another character. People in the non-gaming aka Real World have the same name. Some of them even have the same last name. It took some time to explain that it doesn't work this way in the gaming world. I appeased her by letting her choose my character's looks. Viola! I have a Twi'lek Jedi Sage.
I have to say I've been enjoying playing the Jedi Sage. I enjoyed it so much that I started another character that is also a Jedi Sage. My partner and another friend and I were joking around about if you made another character what should you have and what would you name it. So my partner suggests a Cathar (cat like race) and the name should be Puss in Boots. I was positive that Puss in Boots was taken, but also positive that I could work it out with spelling. Now in SWTOR you have the ability to skip levels and make an Upper Level Character. I went straight to level 65 because sometimes my partner and I can use an upper level healer. This is how Pooseinboots came to be. The only thing is when you jump levels like that your character already has the abilities and you don't get to make certain choices. However, my partner says there should be a way of changing your combat proficiencies, so we'll see hopefully tonight. Here is my interesting looking Cathar.
Now you have it all my characters and what they look like. My next post will be on companions. What are they? Why do you need them? What the hell is going on when my screen goes black?
