Strain

   I'm not the typical gamer. I'm a music student-turned-English major at Oklahoma City University with a love for a turn-based style and the few guilty pleasure MMOs that I can find the time to play.

   My name is Jake, and I'm proud to say that Secret of Mana is the first RPG I ever completed. That game was truly awesome and competes with Final Fantasy VI for my own favorite game. I play mostly for story and fun factors, and both of those games were high in those departments.

   In terms of MMOs, I've run the gamut trying to find ones that I like. I've settled on just World of Warcraft at the moment, but I'm always checking the news to see what's coming next.

   On top of gaming, I like to round out my dork traits by watching anime, reading fantasy, and being a vegetarian. I'm sure there's more to who I am, but to find out: Message me in IRC or on the boards. I've seen a lot of games and love to discuss them all. Hope to hear from you!
