-Docterchese is a Wurm Online player and former Wurm team member. Having played since October 2011, Doc has lived on many of the servers on the [[Freedom Isles]], including two years of PvP experience on [[Chaos]]. Initially beginning as a [[carpentry|carpenter]], Doc has since shifted her focus into [[mining]] and [[blacksmithing]], amongst many other skills in which she specialises. Additionally, Doc has ran a number of (mediocre) priest alts over the years.

-On the Wurm team, she was originally a [[Public Relations | Public Relations Assistant]] (PRA) between August 2012 (when the role was originally created) and January 2014, re-joining the team again in April 2015 and becoming PR Manager for a brief period before stepping down at the end of 2015.
+Currently, Doc lives on the [[Independence]] server at Lorelei, a recently founded deed in the north west of the server.

-In July 2013, Doc also began PvPing on the Chaos server with the [[Lore:Empire of Mol Rehan|Empire of Mol Rehan]], staying at Kratos and enjoying the change of scenery and gameplay. By October 2013, with Captain's reaching a natural low in villager numbers, Doc made the decision to sell the deed and move full-time to Chaos to live at [[Settlement:Ravenholm|Ravenholm]], under the mayorship of long-standing MR player Reincarnation (aka Balmore).

It was also around this time (in January of 2014) that she left the Wurm team as a permanent PR manager had been hired and PRAs were no longer needed.
 Moving to Ravenholm was both a practical decision and a gameplay one. Practically, it would make playing Wurm easier (because trying to play on priest alts living on a different server isn't fun) - while in terms of playing the game, it offered Doc a way to do something new. Doc got involved with recruitment at the deed through use of "PR Skillz," and soon created an immaturely high 2x2 tower to live in. By February 2014, Doc had received the title of Elder at the village and began the construction of a brand new temple at the deed.
 In July 2014, Doc was elected as Prime Minister of Mol Rehan, furthering the use of her "PR Skillz" to aid in recruitment for the kingdom. At Ravenholm, her playstyle was more relaxed, PvPing occasionally but mostly focusing on projects around the deed, including the construction of Ravenholm's colossal walls and a large temple at the deed. It was also around this time that she grinded more skills, reaching a number of milestones including 70 in [[fighting]], [[large metal shield]], [[blacksmithing]] and [[meditating]].

 Most of her return was focused on getting re-established and grinding skills. In addition, Doc is finally working on making a good priest - starting a new [[Vynora]] priest account, Laureltrees, on May 20th. She may also eventually make [[Fo]], [[Magranon]] and [[Libila]] priests on three additional alts - Alectro, Megera and Tisiphone - which all entered the portal to the lands of Wurm on July 31st. Doc managed to get multiple 90s in skills for the first time, including in Mining, Pickaxe, Blacksmithing and Ropemaking.

-In the Autumn of 2015, Doc briefly set up a deed called Laurel in south-west Independence, in an attempt to cure some Wurm burnout and take it easy on Freedom for a while. She also left the staff team at a similar time in November 2015, citing no hard feelings: she simply didn't have the time to continue as PR manager as IRL at the time was way too busy (due to university).

-Unfortunately, Laurel as a deed was short-lived, and never saw much progress. After 5 years of playing Wurm with 3200 hours playtime on her main account alone, Doc had played a lot and simply didn't have much left to do in the game. Laurel fell into inactivity in the spring of 2016, and was quietly disbanded by upkeep in 2017.

 Along with countless happy memories from years of playing, Doc moved on from Wurm for good to pastures new.

-This is a little list to remind myself of things I can work on. Currently, in 2022, I want to focus on grinding (since I have a lot of high skills that I can finally push to 90), work around the village, and on getting the basics down on my priest alt Laureltrees.
