CAUTION: VERY LONG STORY AHEAD!


I'll start from the very begining...


The day is November 22nd, 1988. Enter(Or is exits?) a very blue and almost dead baby into the world. I had appearntly turned wrong in the womb and was getting no oxygen. After some cursing and such in different languages, the doctor finnaly gets me out. (C-section, woo) Rushes me to in oxygen tent or everything. I am then fine and whatever, but I'm sure it wasn't a very fun thing to do as a baby!


As my dad left my mother months before I was born, my mom could name me whatever she wanted. And so I was given the name Nicholas Scott McLain. Both Nicholas and Scott were chosen from romance novels, and even my name on these boards, Wolfgar, comes from a romance novel. Yes, my last name is McLain, but I am not Scottish at all. McLain is my brother's dad's(He died in a motorcycle accident shortly after my brother was born) last name and my mom still had his last name as she never married my dad. I don't know why she didn't give me my dad's last name (Pantusa), or her maiden name, but whatever. I have no problem with it.


Fast forward a couple of years(Bout 4) and my sister is born. We live with her dad for a bit and then he gets thrown in the slammer.


Fast forward a couple more years. We lived in various apartment buildings and with my grandparents every once in a while over the years. We wern't exactly rich and had to move alot. Always in town tho.


When I was around 7 we found an apartment complex called Thornwood. They were OK. It was like the ghetto away from the ghetto. Cause everyone that lived there was white and poor(And all the kids had junkie parents, including me actually...). Or kinda not poor but not well off mexicans. It was fun. The first day I lived there I met a kid named Eric who was around 11/12. Eric became my best friend for the next 4 years of my life. Eric was the "cool kid" at the Apartments. And so I too became one of teh "cool kids". When we played football, I was always picked first. I was the smallest, fastest, could catch a ball, throw a ball, whatever you needed me to do. I could do it. And well. We played alot back then, I miss those days.


Anyways thats when my life got a little messed up. I started stealing things from various stores close to the apartments. Just little things, nothing big. My mom was probably smoking crack and stuff, I didn't really pay attention I was only like 8-9. Around this time I got my first girlfriend, a beautiful vietnamese girl named Mahalo. (Guess I've always been attracted to asians, eh?) We didn't really do anything, we were only 9. Kissing and stuff is all. This one time she dumped me for one of my friends and I was ****ing pissed. I made her sister my girlfriend in retaliation. (I could get any girl I wanted back then, seriously.) It didn't really phase her much, but I liked her sister too so it didn't matter to me.


This one time these crazy people from Oklahoma moved next door to me and their daughter was HIDEOUS. But she wanted me. She threatned to kill herself and me on numerous occasions. One time when my parents were gone (Luckily I had a lot of friends over...listening to songs I obtained with my computer...even back then I was a little pirate. ) and she came to my door with a knife threatening me. Crazy bitch. She got over me eventually.


Anyways...at one point these 3 sisters and their mom moved in. My girlfriend at the time was still Mahalo's sister Amanda, and they were both friends with them, so I became friends with them, even though most of my other friends didn't really like them. (Except my brother who went out with Tiffany for a while) Their names (in going from oldest to youngest) were Amanda, Tiffany, and Courtney. Amanda was 16, Tiffany 14, and Courtney was 12/13 if I remember correctly. During that summer I spent litterally almost every night at their house.


So here I was, 9 years old, spending every night up til 3 AM with 2 (Amanda was usually gone...more about her in a second) pretty girls all older than me. And what was I doing? Playing their Sega. Thats right. I went there and played Sega. Zombies ate my neighbors. Such a great game. But since they didn't have much money at all they didn't have real beds or a couch. Air mattres' for the win? Anyways, the two younger ones usually slept one in the living room and they'd let me squeeze in when I slept over.


Their sister, Amanda, was crazy. She had an obsession with me, but not like the crazy Oklahoma girl. I'd walk around with her and she'd talk to me about crazy stuff that happend to her, getting raped by her uncle, stuff like that. Guess I was just someone she could talk to, despite the fact I was only 9.


Anyways the next year I was still stealing stuff and what not and was tired of pansy stuff. I was 10 now, my mom found a boyfriend, (He was a really nice guy, despite the fact he just got out of prison and was doing drugs with my mom. He is now my step-dad.) my girlfriend had moved away. So me and my friends one day noticed that some person was out of town and decided that if they wern't back the next day we'd break in and steal stuff. They wern't and we did. It was easy, we could break into any apartment at the complex. We didn't steal much...the main things I remember was like 10$ worth of Kool-Aid and 2 bikes.


They came back the next day, called the cops, we held a meeting at the park across the street. We were all kinda scared we were gonna get caught. We went back and the cops asked as questions and I don't remember who, but someone squeeled.


We got caught. They didn't do anything. There was some stupid convention we were forced to go to, but thats it.


Shortly after that we moved away from the apartments. I went into bedroom seclusion. Playing video games and stuff. Fast forward to where I'm 12. It's Christmas. My brother gets two video games for Christmas. One is Asheron's Call. The other is EverQuest. We decided to try Asheron's Call first because of the cool box art. January 1st(The 2nd perhaps, don't remember) 2000, we install, make the account, and my brother makes his character. A female sho UA girl(LC I think). I watched him kill bunnys. I left to go play somthing else. My brother finnaly gets off later that day and I ask if I can play. "Sure, go make a character." "Cool!" I go and make a Sho swordsman(The premade template, swashbuckler?) on the same server, don't remember his name. I kill a couple of bunnys, figure out the controls...and then...I did some exploring. So here I am, a level 1, running around aimlessly looking for cool things. My speakers are up almost all the way and behind me I hear "Thud, thud, thud" my heart starts pounding. "OH **** WTF IS A SHRETH!? I die...and I'm fraking hooked.


A week later we move to the PK server, we're tired of the pansy server. Over the month I make various Characters, until I finnaly found one I liked. I liked the template and I call up my grandma. "Meme...I need a name for my character in this game." "A good one, one that sounds heroic." "Hmm...how about Wolfgar?" "eah! Thats good, how do you spell that?" "W-o-l-f-g-a-r. It was the character in one of my romance books." "Cool! Thanks!" I enter in the name...it needs somthing...I quickly add "the Great" and create the character.


I made him to explore, I was an explorer. I want to go to the Dires. I take random portals until I end up in Qal. Umm...this is gonna be a long run...I'll get to level 4 and then start running there.


So here I am level 4 running the Dires from Qal. I run for a LONG time and I make it inbetween the real Dires and Qal. Close enough for me. I spot some tumeroks, a lifestone, and a small tower. I lifestone and live there for a couple days and meet a guy there. He's level 16, perching with his x-bow, killing tummys. I noticed he's in a guild and I'm like "OMg don't kill me." he informs me he's anti-rpk, and so is his guild. I'm intrigued. I ask to join and I do. I become an honored member of The Holy Avengers.


My real life is suffering, I'm supposed to be homeschooling, but alls I do is play AC all day. All my friends are in game. My patron(Setanta), my monarch(Ranger Scout and his girlfriend, Aurora_Rose on the boards now), and a guy I met in Stonehold(Yinwu. Is no WhipSmack on the boards) are my best of friends. I could tell them anything. After a while people are getting tired of the DT politic bull crap. My monarch and patron have left the game. I'm left with Yinwu and random other friends I have.


Turbine announces the launch of a new server, Wintersebb. (Solclaim wasn't a big deal when it opened, as we were having fun on DT still.) Me and Yinwu and two people we've befriended at Neydissa castle are intrigued. We vow to move to this new server.


And so we do. We make a small XP chain and me and Yinwu(Unleashed Newt now) are the only ones playing really, the other two guys have school and what not. Newt's a hardcore power gamer and levels really fast and my XP mule is leveling faster than me. He'll make a decent mage I decide, even tho gimpy, (Nothing trained but leader and loyalty.) I'll play him. And so I do. Newt got into his 60's or so and "left" and came back under a various different names over the rest of my time playing.


I found these boards sometime. Started posting, selling stuff mostly.


After a while my interests grew with the board and I spent half my time posting on the WE board and half the time playing. Then I heard about ACF. Came here and annoyed. (Just like I did in game. I was the most squelched person on WE once. <3) Blah, blah, blah.


At one point in game I joined Rhiannon's guild and what not and quickly befriended my new patron, Kiqui(Nesessitas on the boards <3 her. ) and her then boyfriend Remyr. After a while we got bored with AC moved to EQ. Did a stint there for a couple months.


One night while I was playing EQ my mom and step-dad had a big fight and I found out they had been doing drugs and stuff again. I don't know why I didn't tell my grandparents to get my mom some help. But she quit. We decided we'd move to Florida.


One day in Febuary I was playing EQ and was listening to music like I always do and a song came on. Au Revoir by Malice Mizer. I had forgotten about this band(I've known about em for a couple years. This was Mana's band incase ya'll didn't know.), but I started listening to them again and stuff. Then I remember some videos that Makoto had posted, asked her where to get more of those like she had posted. So my interest in the board dwindled as well as EQ and soon I was spending most of my time watching videos, alot of the times with no subtitles, of random jpop/jrock groups. Most of the time of the group Morning Musume. I was pretty depressed and they made me happy.


Anyways, thats when I started to get into Japanese music and such. Anyways, months pass. I move back. I'm no longer spending ALL my day's watching videos(As I have friends again now that I'm back in Midland.. Just a majority of the time.


We move into our new house and my interest is back in the board and I still love Morning Musume, just not hardcore watching anymore.


So now we're in the present...and most the time now I'm playing WoW or out hanging out with my friends.


And that, my friends is the Wolfgar story!


Now, I'll give you random Wolfgar facts:

My real name is Nicholas Scott McLain


I'm 16 years old.


I play drums.(Have a band sorta, but ISO of another one

to play for at the same time. Step-dad bought me my first drumset a year and a half ago. I'm self taught, and I'd say I'm fairly decent. I want to learn other insturments. I originnaly got the idea to drum from my grandma.)


All of my friends are older then me and I met them through my brother. (Most anyways.)


When I was little(The Thornwood era) the only person that my mom would let babysit me was my brothers friend Jesse as he was huge (240 pounds or so I'd say, quite possibly more. Around over 6 foot. Not sure how much exactly.) and was the only person that could prevent me from seriously hurting my brother when I got angry at him. I have a very short temper, and despite being pretty small, I was really ****ing crazy when I got mad and found this huge strength within me. My brother has scars all over his arms because I didn't used to cut my nails and I'd dig them into him when I was angry. Jesse would litterally have to sit on me, sometimes for hours to get me to calm down. I miss him.


I'm what you'd consider a drop out but my mom's making me study for my GED.


My plans after I take my GED are to take random classes at the community collge, learn piano, bass, whatever insturment I find amusing. Get a random job that pays the rent. Find some good musicians to play with. You know....stuff.


I love music of all kinds. Name a band and if I don't know them I'll listen to them and tell you what I think of them.


I like girls. I'm mainly attracted to asian girls, but it doesn't really matter what race a girl is, but I'm rather picky and don't often find a lot of white girls attractive. Except you know...Italians. I love Italian ladys like someone else said.


I have been diagnosed with ADHD and depression, but you know, who hasn't? I also possibly might suffer from mild schitzophrenia (It's on the table...), social anxiety disorder, (For sure.) and some other things...but they don't make a huge impact on my life.


I have a brother and a sister. And then another sister but shes not really my sister. I just call her that cause shes cool as hell and I wish she was.


I don't want random sex. I'd rather have love. Betcha didn't see that coming?


I really don't know what else to say...theres some things I didn't tell you guys in the story like the weird paranormal experiance I had, getting thrown into a dumpster by a girl and her sister, and alot of random other stuff. But if you wanna know somthing speciffic I didn't cover, ask me. And if you wanna hear my storys I'll post em. I hope you enjoyed the VERY long story. I didn't mean to write that much, but I needed to tell it all.
