Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to kill because they pissed me off.

Overview
I began playing Wurm about a month before the end of beta and have been playing ever since. I have started numerous homesteads in the course of playing during Gold 1 and I was mostly a hermit that lived near Hammerfell during Beta and Gold 1. I mostly done stuff around my area on Gold 1 near Hammerfell and kept to myself and just enjoyed the game until the crash which started Gold 2. I moved to a island southeast on the map during the start of Gold 2 and lived on the island by myself for some time before a player by the name of Omnivore arrived and settled in while I was taking a short break from Wurm. Aonghais "who is Fomar" settled in the area some time after Omnivore and I came back online to find two new people on the island and another on the steppe near my area. I eventually moved to wild with Omnivore to a area on the southwest section of the map near where Whosville is located now.
We were on wild for about 3 weeks working on a settlement and we were going to convert to HOTS but I never got the chance because Rolf refused to allow Omnivore to go HOTS without becoming a follower of Libila which would go against his religious beliefs. Omnivore quit and I moved back to my homestead on home called New Breed and contacted Fomar about starting our own Size 10 village on Jk Home. Fomar agreed and brought Firey a friend of his along. We took about a week to level Noriyah and started working on the inner buildings and you can see some of the village on how it was after we were done here [1]. After some time of living in the area we founded a homestead southeast of the village just south of the steppe and called it Noriyah Training Center to use for new recruits.
After some months we had some trouble with a few individuals making basic alts to grieve the area around Noriyah and I decided enough was enough and attacked these grievers. I was told by Wolfram who was a GM at the time that I could not force my play style on other players and I decided with the rest of my village that it was time for us to move to wild. I took some time to train up my fight skill in preparation of the move. I ended up getting 70 fight skill and I became one of the top fighters on JK home. We decided to make a few basic alt accounts on wild to scout around and find a area suitable for us to build on and went searching around the northeast part of the map until we found the island near Point Du Hoc which was a ideal location. We moved shortly after from home to wild and began work on the village layout and started moving a lot of dirt to make a 21x21 flattened area. I ended up getting 86 digging skill by the time we had finished making Tyre. We were attacked by some Blers from the Bat Cave but not so much because they had just started on their place as well. So while we built they took the time to build up their defenses as well and that gave us ample time to finish and get prepared for a attack which came from MR and the Blers. We have only been attacked 3 times and each time they have not been able to get on deed yet.
The area we are currently in is perfect for us because we like not having the drama that JK home has. We can actually take care of problems if they should arise. I find life on Wild ideal for the game play style Wurm offers. I deeply enjoy the game and I wouldn't have played for near 4 years if it wasn't that good. I always find myself coming back for more when I find it's time for a little break now and again.
Currently I am working as a Sound Developer for Wurm Online. I've modified all current environment sounds along with some 40+ additional sounds that have been added. In the future I plan on adding more missing sounds along with redoing the current crafting sounds to update them and fix issues that I have with some of them not really fitting the type of crafting you are doing.
