Isolde

This is Isolde, who was my main character in EverQuest. She was a High Elf Enchanter on the Quellious server. The picture here shows her in a Blackened Crystalline robe, over which I drooled for months.

Isolde's favorite activity was to learn the craft skills in the game. I refuse to call them "trade" skills, as they are most commonly known, because that implies that they're capable of making items that are worth trading. For the most part, that's not the case. But I won't go into that here. Suffice it to say that Isolde, even at level 42, was pretty far behind most of her friends because she wasted so much time on her craft hobbies. Even my husband, who made a character on Quellious just to play with me, passed me in levels after 3 months. But it's a nice break from the ol' cast-n-stab. By the time I retired, she had acheived Master status in Baking (147), Brewing (149), Jewelcraft (149), Pottery (148), Smithing (178) and Tailoring (119).
