It all started from a friend on Depardieu. He introduced him to the MMORPG "Lineage The Blood Pledge". There was news about a new server, Ken Rauhel, a server where he still plays today. He started out on day 1 of the server. His first character was a mage. Many people know him as Pattycakes, his mage and some know his old knight, LethalWeapon. It's been a long time for my friend Ecks and he has finally met his goal.

Inspired by his prince "Marak2001", he had became envious of the new level 50's that were sprouting all over the server. EcKs had quit for about 8 months and he regrets it. He had given me some items before he quit too. Now EcKs is back and is leveling fast. He became level 52 just earlier today. EcKs also told me that Marak and him were racing to 52, but it seems Marak beat him to it.

EcKs also spent some time on Test server. It was the 3rd test server and his name there was Phoenix. You may remember him for being 1st on the Deathmatch scores for quite a while. He got -69 ac, +9 Tsurugi, +10 MB and many fire rings. He quit test server because it was too easy and it got boring.

If you don't already know, EcKs is a Strength knight. He added both of his stat points to strength, which gives him 22 STR (base). He uses a +8 Tsurugi, +9 Katana and a +9 Mail Breaker. He also has -6x ac. EcKs hunts in Fire Valley, but u can see him occasionally on a boss hunt. Check his website out for some of his screenshots.

I asked what kept him playing Lineage for all this time and he told me that it was the people. With that being said, here comes a huge shoutout to all his friends. Thanks to: Marak2001, zfighterz, Sexmonkey, Cronus, FyreBlade, Skada, ImNaked19, Chance, DNA, Havok, MaxRnzII, HERC, Vocabulary, WaterElf, Cruentus, Btsurugi, Taeback, Mixalot (that's you Pr0!), sas1osok and all the people that helped him along the way.

EcKs doesn't live in T.O., but in New Jersey. He's Asian and he keeps school as his #1 priority, but I don't believe him :P. He got from level 51 to 52 in 12 days. What did you do this winter break?

Tnx NC for a long-lasting game - EcKs

Here's a cookie for you BlackHawkX and EcKs.
