Aww, man. All our home anomalies are gone, either plundered by parties unknown or activated in spite. If I could have been bothered to clear them myself I'd be upset. Instead, I'm more concerned about my ship staying responsive in space. It feels good so far! Let's see if jumping ...

A short poke around w-space to look for targets starts out positively, with an unexpected wormhole in the home system. Glorious leader Fin has resolved and bookmarked our static connection, leaving it unvisited, which lets me identify the other wormhole with ease. Warping to it sees a K162 from more ...

Kiska's fallen, and can't get up. The strain of trying to be pure and holy for fifty-eight levels has taken its toll. The final straw is being trained at 58th level with a single upgrade to a healing spell, which is next-to-useless for a front-line tank who is ...

I admit that I am one of those RP weirdos who keeps a change of clothes for when I am in Stormwind and Dalaran. I feel much better walking around in a pretty dress and hat than stuck in heavy armour all the time, particularly when draenei are naturally ...

We're off to Maraudon! The dungeon was discovered late in the exploration of Azeroth, and so is rather more involved than the other dungeons we've delved in to so far. But Livya says that she knows Maraudon like she knows Wailing Caverns, so we should have no problems ...

We're going to Maraudon! For some reason, I expected the dungeon in Desolace to have more centaurs and fewer trolls, and for it to be an indoor, rocky instance. But it turns out that we're not quite ready for Maraudon, and Zul'Farrak is more in our level ...

The Filesystem Checkwits defeat Uldaman! This must be the first time I have completed the dungeon at the right level. Of course, I have been here before, quite a few times. Back in the old days, when I was a young warlock, I needed to get in ...

It's back to the Horde continent of Kalimdor and the dry heat of the Barrens for the Filesystem Checkwits. Heading close to the Thousand Needles boundary we take a sharp left for our expedition in to Razorfen Downs. At least, that's the idea, but Livya has somehow found ...

How do you kill that which does not live? It's a recurring question when encountering zombies, ghouls and skeletons, one that eludes a common solution. It raises interesting discussion about the existence of the soul, particularly in conjunction with PC death and resurrection, and whether death is an ...

I hear there's a cleric in an Alliance camp in Desolace who has skeletons in his quest log. Although I have travelled through various regions already, I still have quite a trek ahead of me to reach him. My route takes me through Ratchet, as I still have ...
