[Redwizard]

quite drmatic i suppose..
1. Heard of graal from my cousin (illyich venmyr : crovaX_dark_lord).
My other cousins (Evil_Lord_Sparda and Khallos2k2 who r brothers) loved it too. They tried getting me to play it but i was saying 'omg graal is cr** its so ghey'. i had a reason, of course. this was in 1999/98 (when i was about 9 or 10)

2. downloaded graal on my computer for the first time. when the start screen was gray and had the picture of fung si yan on a horse. Loved it to shredds. Got it online after getting an account, went around the main graal world (one of only 2 servers at the time). Built up a name, then my cousin told me how i can make my own heads if i wanted to.

3.I opened MSPaint for the first time with an objective of creating some graphics in use with graal for the firs time on .. i think it was beginning of april '98. made a head. it didnt work. smashed my computer to bits and had to get a new one.

4.graphic worked later that year, i was over the moon. Was into customisation BIG time.

5. Under the name 'Freiza' i scoured every server, bravo, n-pulse, etc. looking for people i can work with. I didnt get a look into it, i was soo rubbish, no one cared.

6. Worked on a server that was in production called Dark Univers. Lied about my ability just so i could get a jop there as a graphics artist. Ended up working there for a few months, making random things. Downloaded many different graphics programs off the net to make better things.

7. witha feel for almost every product imaginable, i was armed to the teeth with newfound graphicing ability. ish. Got my first proper job on Maloria i think it was. Then UN. then as my server xperience list went higher, so did my reputation.

8. Made a lot of heads, asked kawaiisaria to critisize them for me and say how good/not good they were. By the end of graal 2001 (near begining of graal 2002 on the playerlist) i was better. Eventually got a job on kingdoms making loadsa stuff.

9. i am where i am today. one of the oldest players and staff of graal :-)
