User:Phage
Phage?
Hi. I'm a grad student, graduating real soon with a PhD, also looking for a job and preparing for exam. Guild Wars keep me sane during all that. Nuff said.
My characters have surnames derived from my username. Aphagela. Derived originally from "a Phage is loose" (Aphagelous - used in beta) but it really does sound better the other way around. Was an original beta tester but did not actually got (back) in the game until 2 years after release.
I hate to grind. Really hate to grind. I like new, fresh challenges and even experience familiar challenges with a friend. I also love to twink builds and to play different characters.
Due to time limitation, almost exclusively PvE player.
Add me!
I am on Valice Aphagela most often in game. Feel free to poke me for games. I consider playing with friends more important than achieving personal objectives, and willing to help with anything.

| Valice Aphagela | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Picture goes here. |
An adventurous ranger who likes to experience what the world has to offer, Valice embodies my personality and is thus not only the eldest, but also the most experienced in the family. She has done a lot of things for Cantha especially, even though she is a Tyrian. Currently Valice is trying to prevent Nightfall. Paradoxically, she has participated in the defeat of the Great Destroyer. How the time paradox could have happened, one may never know. Her favorite trick is dazing her opponents and spreading the love around. She also has the penchant of being among the last to fall in a party, when things go wrong.
She is named after my first dueling speedazon in Diablo 2 (US East).

| Vanora Aphagela | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Tall and imposing, Vanora is known for her 'have axe will travel' mercenary spirit. She'd gladly help out other heroes in need as long as she gets a good battle out of it. In particular, she was especially helpful for Varetha, forging the path ahead for her journey through Tyria and into Augury Rock. Expect to see her when situation calls for a fearless, intelligent front-line fighter.
Her name is unique to Guild Wars; however, it was an evolution from Vanyra (D2 spearazon, later also Dreu Noctem paladin and companion of Evalia) and Vannor, my second dueling speedazon in D2 (US East).

| Varetha Aphagela | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| http://i454.photobucket.com/albums/qq267/vakusuma/GW/Necromancer-icon.png
Picture goes here. |
There are three things that helped Varetha in her journey. She's not afraid to get her hands dirty, using all means and spells available to help her prevail, even when the approach is considered unconventional. She also relies on enemy information obtained from her more experienced sisters, helping her prepare better in vanquishing her enemies. She also has good luck and penchant for being seemingly unremarkable in combat, constantly underestimated by her enemies, who learned quickly that when Varetha says drop dead, she means it. Only time will tell whether these will continue to keep her safe...
My only Diablo 2 necromancer was named Varath, and later there was a barbarian named Vareth. Variations of the name continue to serve me in many games, but it was invariably used only for male characters. Varetha is the first character named with a female version of this name.
