Changes

==Biography==

In the Autumn of 2015early 2016, 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 by the spring summer of 2016, and was quietly disbanded by upkeep in 2017.

On April 17th, 2022, Doc decided to reinstall Wurm after six years away from the game, curious about what had changed. By total coincidence, a long-term friend from Doc's Wurm team days, [[Player:Maximusi|Maximusi]], happened to be online, having also decided to retry Wurm just two weeks prior! Doc went to join Max's new deed, Seahaven Valley, on the west coast of Independence's Inner Sea, in the alliance of the Shepherds of Gnome. In no small part thanks to the many wonderful people in the Shepherds of GnomeThis was a crazy coincidence, particularly since Doc fell and Max both originally started playing Wurm just 1 week apart from each other eleven years prior in love with Wurm againOctober 2011. As it turns out, all she needed It was a ''really'' big break from the game...good week to rejoin Wurm!

Most of her return so far has been focused on getting re-established and grinding skills. In addition, Doc is finally working on making a good priest - starting a went to join Max's new [[Vynora]] priest accountdeed, LaureltreesSeahaven Valley, on May 20th. She may also eventually make [[Fo]]the west coast of Independence's Inner Sea, [[Magranon]] and [[Libila]] priests on three additional alts - Alectro, Megera and Tisiphone - which all entered in the alliance of the portal Shepherds of Gnome. In no small part thanks to the lands many wonderful people in the Shepherds of Gnome, Doc fell in love with Wurm on July 31stagain. As it turns out, all she needed was a ''really'' big break from the game...

With Most of her return was focused on getting re-established and grinding skills to grind. In addition, Doc is finally working on making a deed idea brewing 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 a lovely community Tisiphone - which all entered the portal to the lands of Wurmians around Wurm on July 31st. Doc managed to get multiple 90s in skills for the first time, including in Mining, Pickaxe, Blacksmithing and Ropemaking. === Lorelei === Now properly back into Wurm, Doc decided it was time for herto found her own deed. Hence, on November 26th 2022, Lorelei was founded in the forests of North-West Independence, intentionally close to other alliance deeds including Archeon and Elska Heima. Long-term, who knows where Doc's wants to use the deed as a permanent forever home in Wurm journey , and will go next..set it up with extensive workshops, housing, and a boat canal.

This is a little list to remind myself of things I can work on. Currently, in 2022For 2023, I want to focus mostly on grinding (since I have a lot of high skills that I can finally push to 90), work around the villageon Lorelei, in addition to some other skill grinds and on getting finishing the basics down grind on my priest alt Laureltrees.
