Congratulations to November's delicious Tainter of the Month, Kraelik! This tart of a guildie is always whipping up some luvin' for us all, providing treats and fun on a regular basis. In-game or out, Kraelik is definitely both sweet and savory!
What's your real name?My name is Ryan and I am a pie maker.
Where are you from? Where can we stalk you irl?I am originally from La Canada, California, but reside in Bend, Oregon. I am currently playing Scrabble and drinking red wine in Sacramento, CA.
Who are your toons?Kraelik, Draelik, Traelik, Xaelik. I am not very creative with my names. Kraelik has been my rpg character name since EQ.
What role do you play?I mainly do raid heals, but have been taking a break from it, as I have been working crazy hours on top of traveling. I want to get back into some PvP when I have more time. My non-Taint mains grew up on Tichondrius. I really miss the constant state of terror I was in while raising my toons there. In the words of Sue Sylvester, "It is like mother's milk to them. Without it, their bones won't grow properly." I may get my mage to 80 and start pvping with him. Who knows?
How old are you? (or alternatively, how old do you feel or what is the age do you tell your twinks asians when you're breaking their hearts?)I am 232 years old. I was born in 1776. So says my birth certificate. More like Fail certificate. Or is it? MWAHAHAHAHAHAhahaha /sigh
What do you do for a living?Bake pies. Break hearts. Manage human resources. Attend Taint events. Travel.
Do you have any hobbies outside of WoW?I bake. A lot. I also do some geocaching and cave mapping. I love planning dinner parties and social events. And apparently, breaking hearts.
Are you single? If not, what website did you meet him/her?I am. And always will be. I am a gregarious misanthrope.
How did you find Taint?I found Taint on Facebook. Shelly (Tetu) was the first person I was in contact with and she was so frigging awesome. A few weeks later I met Ben, Emil and a few others at the GLAAD panel in SF and I knew I had found my home.
What has been your most memorable/favorite moment in Taint?Oh geez. In game, I would have to say Proudmoore Pride 2009. It was amazing. If I had a heart, I probably would have teared up at the shear awesomeness of the event. All these digital people, coming together to celebrate our common interests. In real life, any time that I have attended a Taint event in a toga. Which is pretty much EVERY SINGLE ONE.
Taint crush(es?)I think at one time or another, I have had crushes on just about everyone in Taint for one reason or another. Everyone brings something different to the table and that is what makes Taint such an amazing fucking place!
Tell us a secret about yourself.HA! I don't think I really have any secrets, per se. I am pretty open to dialoguing with people about any aspects of my life they might want to know about. As for some juicy info, I used to work in a sex club/dungeon. I also love water sports. Barefoot waterskiing is the best. :-D
If you could be any monster or NPC in WoW, what would you be?Lady Jaina Proudmoore. She is gonna fuck Thrall. With a strap on. And she has nice bewbs and her milkshake brings all the boys to the yard. Plus, she has her own fucking island.
If you could make a new Achievement what would it be?[Oh, The Ringing!] Your eardrums have been shattered by Kraelik's SHRIEK OF ANGER in Ventrilo, while doing an achievement run in any Northrend Dungeon.
You are walking through the desert and you come across a turtle, on its back, struggling to turn over. What do you do?I would flip it over and give it some of my water.
Is there anything you'd like to say to your peeps in Taint?I really just want to thank EVERYONE for making Taint such an awesome place. Like I said before, every single member brings their own unique views and experience to the table. I may not agree with everyone, but the fact that every day I get the chance to hear anything and everything talked about is great. From politics to sex to religion to celebrity to sex to raid issues to sex. You all make Taint what it is, and I thank you for it.
