Ryan

From SCross

Hey folks, I'm Ryan, more commonly known as Cole.

I've got quite the track record on Southern Cross. I started back on Southern Cross: Awakenings where I was mostly a nuisance, then jumped ship to Heart of the Empire as soon as it opened to the public. There I settled in, made a few characters that didn't stick, including Thedeus Crowley who was the original owner of The Tavern in New Junonsburg. Eventually a friend, Matt(player of Alouicious, et al.), asked if I would make a brute/thug type character for his evil organization. I said I would and made Cole Greaves.

Cole was a hodge-podge of various influences. The theme of his history, such as his upbringing in Ironhall and his cat's-eye sword, were ripped from Dave Duncan's King's Blades novels, while his attitude was largely Dante from Devil May Cry. As I played him he smoothed out into a general bad ass and I eventually moved away from the stolen history and tried to give him depth on his own merits. In working for The Brotherhood, Cole built up a big reputation as a bully, extortionist, thief, and, eventually, murderer. He would evolve a great deal in his time, being the pioneer of the Dual-Wield Special and one of it's most proficient users, and do everything from drug royal weddings to to spitting on a king's boot. Eventually I would retire him, ascending him to become the minor Greater Spirit Gilgamesh, with the Head Wizzes blessing.

After that Cole was an NPC. I continued to refine him, changing his last name to Graves, and used him to occasionally run scenes and stir up trouble. I've had no well known alts since.

Now I just loiter about, stirring up trouble OOC. Some times I code, some times I help players out, some times I settle disputes. Just depends on how much time I can devote from my busy schedule.

And now, the moment you've all been waiting for..
