Too Busy!
I wonder sometimes if anyone is still reading this oft neglected blog. Life has thrown me a curve ball, and I'm dealing with it the best I can, which means something had to give. As I am unwilling to give up my fantasy world I escape to daily, the blog has suffered. I'm not going to quit, but I thought you all should know that updates are going to be rather scarce.
If you have visited the main page, you'll have noticed my character feed for Delgada is broken. Yipes! This is not horrible, and I will fix it shortly. I ran up against the problem of too many priests and not enough tanks in my main guild, KNR, so I server transferred Delgada to Eredar to hang out with an old flame. The new guild, Wrath and Redemption, is a great one, and have whisked me into raiding, despite my low gear score. Last night we downed Halfus in the Bastion of Twilight and got in several good attempts on Valiona and Theralion. I'm sure that we'll get it tonight. Just before our last two attempts my client disconnected, and when I logged back in, all my key bindings were gone. I healed our last two attempts from the spell page! Still, I think we got them down to 80%, so I am looking forward to another fun night tonight. I am more prepared than I was last night (who knew they would drag my lowly butt into a raid so soon!) as I now have Deadly Boss Mods installed and my other mods updated. Tell me, any raiders reading this, is it still necessary to be running Omen? I have it installed, but I find I'm not using it.
Delgada has been spending the rest of her time on the server doing dailies and digging for artifacts. She has found quite a few interesting things, even if they are mostly toys. She has uncovered a dig in Uldum, however, that is bringing up pieces of a ring! I might be a little more excited about this if it had some spirit on it. Still, at this point in the game, Delgada is behind the gear curve and ahead of the raiding curve. I don't think I have ever raided so early in an expansion!
While doing dailies, Delgada has managed to make friends with a few other people in other guilds, who seem to have the same altaholic tendencies as I do. Eredar is shaping up to be a friendly and more evenly balanced server than Smolderthorn could ever hope to be. I'm a little sad that KNR has to be there. Thank goodness for Real ID. I'd probably never have even thought of transferring had I not a way to chat with them after the move.
In other news, My wizard Rowan Trollstalker is closing in on the old level cap of 50, and has finished Mooshu! She spends most of her days in her garden, since I haven't got any crowns to unlock Dragonspyre yet. I may finish out Grizzleheim before I head out there, just because I have some areas unlocked there that I haven't touched.

Dress For Romance
When we think about outfits for Valentine's Day, the usual items and sets come to mind. Here is a bulleted list of what the unimaginative will be looking for this season.
Pretty much any farm in the early areas of the Human and Undead zones will do to roleplay this fantastic set. Buttercup is wearing a Simple Dress. Farm Boy is wearing Blue Overalls paired with your basic axe. Sorry, the log is a prop only available to non player monsters.
How about something straight out of the Arabian Nights? These outfits, perhaps paired with a flying carpet ride, would be great for a desert or oasis meetup.
Her dress, the Robes of Insight, look like the Vestments of the Shifting Sands, Robes of the Battleguard, Robes of the Guardian Saint and Robes of the Triumvirate. You might have to have a little luck finding them, but they are well worth saving when found! His outfit consists of Verdigris Leggings, Abjurer's Cloak, Crimson Silk Vest, and a Spellweaver's Turban. The leggings are a reward from a low level Alliance quest, so you Horde out there may have to find something different(any plain pair will do). As for the turban, only the models above level 59 have the feather. Here is a list of alternatives, with and without feathers.
How about Explorer meets Native?
Our troll princess is wearing the Tribal Worg Helm with an Aboriginal Robe and carrying an Aboriginal Rod. The explorer, begging to keep his head, is wearing a White Swashbuckler's Shirt with a Moonglow Vest, Twill Belt and Twill Pants and Simple Linen Boots. You could do this in about any tropical setting, but it's especially fun in troll ruins and active troll areas.
How about a damsel and a swash buckling pirate?
- Lovely (insert color here) Dress
- Elegant or Easter Dress
- White Wedding Dress
- Haliscan Set
- Tuxedo Set
- Black Tuxedo Set

Our damsel in distress is wearing a White Woolen Dress and Cross Stitched Sandals. Our villainous pirate is wearing a Swashbuckler's Eyepatch, White Swashbuckler's Shirt, Slavehandler Jerkin, Swashbuckler Sash, Coven Britches, Crimson Silk Cloak, and wielding a Cruel Barb. Sadly, if you want that sash, you have to have had it before The Shattering.
These are just a few ideas for outfits that can lead to wonderful romantic roleplay, or just some fun while sitting in your favorite spot, doing whatever you and your Azerothian lover enjoy doing together. If you have any other suggestions on outifts I might be able to dig up, please leave a comment below!
Next up, places to go now that you are all dressed up! Exciting, breathtaking, fun filled vacation spots sure to please even the most picky of partners. Stay tuned...
