Hello, my name is GamerKitten and.. I have a problem.
A real, real problem. My problem is that I am obsessed with hunters, specifically in World of Warcraft. Oh, I have a beast master in Everquest 2, and a Ranger in Guild Wars 2 (Norn reppin' for the win!), but nothing tickles my fancy so much as the World of Warcraft hunter class. I love exploring the ends of Azeroth for new pets, I love coming up with themes for said pets, I love the different models to tame, and I love the addons like PetEmote (available at Curse) that give my pets so much more personality. I'm addicted, and I don't care!
Here is a running total of my hunters so far..
Anouska Tatterton, level 89 human hunter, Moon Guard.
Verica Dawnsinger, level 50 blood elf hunter, Wyrmrest Accord.
Jenatrix Boomshot, level 77 goblin hunter, Cho'gall. (retired, since I don't play here anymore. :( )
A good start, I'd say. However.. having recently become obsessed with the wow-petopia.com website, and by proxy, the forums, I am privileged to see hunter-obsessed folk who take it to a whole 'nother level, people! I was inspired by one such post by Kurasu, who decided to start a level 1 hunter and level the following way:
-Every 5 levels, tame a new pet
-No doubling up on skins
-No doubling up on families (where possible)
-Tame a pet from the zone in which you dinged the 5th level
-Try for skins you have not tamed before
I have been massively inspired by this, and have decided to attempt this on two hunters, one Alliance side and one Horde side. I will however be taking it a step further..
-One instance run per instance for the quests and pets inside
-All other levelling through questing only, and-
-Naming themes for both hunters!
I will be taking screenshots as I go and am already super excited. My irreverent goblin hunter is Jenatrix Boomshot reborn, and she is SO fabulous that all of her pets will be named for drag queens. I will be rolling her on Wyrmrest Accord. I am also working on a draenei hunter name, whose pets will be named for the song/genre/band I am listening to as I tame them, which will be random due to Winamp/Pandora's nature!
Then of course there is Ludovika Mormont, whose pets are all fictional characters that die in the movie or book in which they reside. She is a bit outside the rules for the challenge, as I will be taming specific pets that fit her 'Forsaken' look, IE diseased bears, wolves, spiders, wasps, and other creepy crawlies who don't get enough love!
FUN HUH?!
If you guys have any 'musical' names that would suit a draenei, please let me know. I have tried all sorts of different combinations of 'Pandora' with varying funky letters, to no avail. *shakes fist at the heavens* DAMN YOU HIGH POPULATION SERVERS!!
I have gone off the deep end, my friends, and I am enjoying the swim!
