A Short History

I started playing LOTRO sometime during 2008 (beta?).
I started playing on Windfola, mostly because it was the least full server.
My first character was Tarelion, an Elf Hunter, but Melyriel, an Elf Loremaster would become my main within a few weeks.
My first kinship was Narsil's Edge.
Klista and I formed Heroes of the Last Alliance after leaving Narsil's Edge.
Wanting to participate in more raids, I joined my friend Dallasg's kinship Honor and Glory with my main
Windfola shutdown and I mostly migrated to Arkenstone. Unfortunately, I had once created a Rune-keeper on another server, also named Melyriel, that was auto-transferred to Arkenstone. Strangely, I couldn't access that character to rename it, so my main lived with a -2 after my name for many years. (-1 belonging to the free test character I made before transferring).
Went inactive for many years
Played a little on the Legendary server Anor, with a new Loremaster named Melyriel. :D
Anor shutdown in August 2022.
Transferred new Anor Melyriel to Arkenstone and it gave me the name as the existing one was inactive for over a year. I deleted Anor Melyriel and was able to rename Melyriel-2 to her proper name. Yay!
