Of course I did. I'm a professional (or fool), don't act/make judgement until you've tried it yourself.

Usually.

Writing on something big currently. I've told this story a few times in the past to people who have asked, but I've never really written anything concrete about it. I think it's time that I did.

It's still gonna be a while before I finish it, as it's a lot to write. But here's a little teaser.

The name itself, I though long and hard over. I think it took me about 3 hours to figure out a really good Gnome name.
At that time I didn't thin too much of the Alliance tho. I was used to roleplaying on Horde, on my Troll Teeru. I never cared much for the Alliance races until this point. I've had Gnomes in the past, my first gnome was a rogue named [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], that was in the Gnomish Artillery Squad. I never put much effort into him, and like all my other rogues that I tried to level in vanilla, he got deleted around level 32. (I leveled like 5 rogues, all deleted around level 30 because I couldn't be bothered anymore)

Without much to go on, and Copper being a blank file- I set out on the idea of her being part of the Argent Dawn, as at the time that was the faction I liked the most due to me simply finding them "cool." Truth to be told tho, I barely knew anything about the Argent Dawn and to this day I still really don't. I still find the Argents pretty neat despite that.

So, my first day on Coppersocket. I run into the (then) current roleplayers of the Forlorn Cartel (Greenbeard, Quinian, Nifty and the lot), who were out trying to find prey to mug. Copper followed them around as they were clearly up to no good, she followed them into the Miner's Street.
She confronted them. One single Gnome against the entire Cartel.

This may seem like an heroic act, but it was not. She didn't seek honor, nor did she believe at any point that she would be able to win. Copper merely did what she believed she should do to protect the streets.

Given that she was clearly outnumbered (around 10 to 1), she was very quickly defeated- only managing to throw one punch, which didn't even reach it's target. Utter defeat.

That's near the beginning of what I've written. It might not be as interesting as the other posts here and not at all in the same style. But I felt it's a nice way to close out this thread properly, as this character has been very important to me- and through her I've experienced a lot of fun in this game.

So, I don't know when I'll have it up. But I'm gonna try have it out later today if I can manage to write all of it in one day.

So remember kids, don't ask if it's okay to be gay. Ask if it's okay to be Finnish.

Knowing you no suprise.

Hell in Norwegian means luck so it's not on the same. Those Finnish places actually translate to that. There is another place called helvete(which means hell) somewhere though. Fairly sure anyways. Might just be what the locals call it.
