Baklava The Bear

I apologize for leaving my readers in suspense about my brother's involvement with the game World Of Warcraft (WoW). When we last left him, he hadn't decided whether he would go beyond the initial 10-day free trial and actually start paying to play the game.

Would he would decide to pony up some money to continue playing Baklava the Night Elf Druid and Mazgul the Undead Mage? Or would he quit the game cold turkey, abandoning his characters to be deleted by some underpaid sysadmin?

What? You weren't in suspense? Is that ice water in your veins?

Baklava and Mazgul are alive, for the moment. My brother paid 20 bucks for a licensed copy of the game, which gave him 30 more days of hot WoW action.

He was nice enough to take some screenshots for me, so now you can begin to see these heroic characters in all their glory.

This post will be devoted to Baklava. I'm sorry, Mazgul fans. You're going to have to wait a little longer to get your Undead Mage fix.

Baklava is now at Level 14, and has the ability to use a whole new slew of spells. But, a lot of time has been spent transforming into a bear, a skill a Druid can acquire at Level 10.

I told you Baklava was a mighty hunter of deer-that-don't-fight-back.

Now you can witness the epic battle!

Baklava isn't just about the hunting. He is also making lots of different kinds of food. He now knows how to make spice bread and herbed eggs (eating food heals you, though I think my brother gets a perverse pleasure from the act of virtually cooking for it's own sake). Baklava is currently considering pursuing Herbology as a hobby.

Baklava has recently also taken up fishing


Another thing Baklava likes to do is sit on things. Do not question why. Baklava does not need to answer your foolish questions.

And now, the icing on the cake. A hot night elf babe.

Thank you. I was on pins and needles about your brother's WOW experiences.

Is there a spell where you can sit on a fire and fart, and it rockets you off to some distant locale? That would be awesome.
