Now I understand why Bio is so popular.

everyone needs a bio, at least a couple of times a day

 

 

allegedly

First time I ever heard the expression "brb bio", I was new to the game, and on Virtue.  Given that it was the unofficial RP server, I kept thinking to myself, "wow, these people really are dedicated to perfecting their character descriptions!"

My version of this was soloing Manticore on what was in retrospect a pretty shoddy archery/ninjutsu sentinel build.  I just baaaaarely had the DPS to do it, so it took forever.  Sentinel Archery's highest DPA attack is stunning shot, which leaves a discarded arrow on the ground, and at the end of the fight I was surrounded by a circle of probably 200+ discarded arrow.

 

Sorry, it was a long time ago, no screenshots.

Actually, this is my favorite thing about Bio; becoming a Trash Lord.

Go take a Stormy with Hurricane running (or a Grav with Singy out) and go stand near a dumpster in some alley, you can become TRASH LORD EXTREEEEEME!

Once upon a time at the foot of a great mountain
There was a town where the people known as Players lived
Their very existence a mystery to the rest of the world
Obscured as it was by great clouds
Here they played out their peaceful lives
Innocent of the litany of excess and violence
That was growing in the world below
To live in harmony with
The Lord of the mountain called Trash was enough
Then one day Developers arrived in the town
They came in camouflaged
Hidden behind dark glasses and no one noticed them
They only saw shadows
You see without the truth of the eyes
The Players were blind
Falling out of aeroplanes and hiding out in holes
Waiting for the sunset to come people going home
Jump out from behind them and shoot them in the head
Now everybody dancing
The dance of the dead
The dance of the dead
The dance of the dead
In time Developers found their way
Into the higher reaches of the mountain
And it was there that they found the caves
Of unimaginable sincerity and beauty
By chance they stumbled upon
The place where all good souls come to rest
The Developers they coveted
The jewels in these caves above all things
And soon they began to mine the mountain
Its rich seam fueling the chaos of their own world
Meanwhile down in the town
The Players slept restlessly their dreams Invaded by shadowy figures
Digging away at their souls
Every day people would wake and stare at the mountain
Why was it bringing darkness into their lives?
And as the Developers mined deeper and deeper into the mountain
Holes began to appear
Bringing with them a cold and bitter wind
That chilled the very soul of the Trash
For the first time the Players felt fearful for
They knew that soon the Trash would stir from it's deep sleep
Then there came a sound
Distant first it grew into castrophany
So immense that it could be heard far away in space
There were no screams there was no time
The mountain called Trash had spoken

There was only fire

And then nothing

Oh a little town in Paragon
The time has come to see
There's nothing you believe you are
But where were you when it all came down on me?
Did you call me?
no
 
Spoiler

This was instantly the profile bio I heard in my mind the moment I saw "Trash Lord" and knew what it was. I don't know 100% why, but I am sharing it either way!
