Ehllo everybody,
My name is Thellos, I started playing Belegarth in 2010 but have been on an extended hiatus for nearly 3 years now.
I first heard of Belegarth when i became a member of Job Corp in Clearfield Utah. My friends would talk about past events all week long, then during the weekend they would go off campus again, coming back with fresh stories to tell.
Many of the stories were about mishaps during the fights. One of which was when one persons arm popped out of it's socket . He literally said "I call dead arm" switched weapon hand and continued on. Other such stories revolved about this one man named Taco and how much they smarted afterwards.
My first experience with it was during a JC event expo. They had several booths set up with pamphlets of information about their clubs. A few struck my interest, others not so much. However there was one group that had floor mats and foam weaponry. I tried it once and it struck something deep within me, quite literally
In the Spring of 2010 i joined in the events and by the gods was it fun. Our group met up with others that were in the Clearfield area and we always had a good time. They taught us the basics, showed us a few of the combat formats, and for several of my earliest fights i was the easy kill. Time went on, i got better, and i even fought against Taco on occasion. Sadly i had to give it up because i completed the JC program and moved back to Florida.
Just recently, it was like i received a boot to the head by the muse. I couldn't get the game out of my head. So i started digging and i eventually found my way here.
I look forward to getting back into the game and finding a group in my local area, if not start one altogether.
That's my story in a nutshell.
Merry meet, Merry part, and Hasta la bye-bye.
