Name: Boris, obviously!

Age: tremendously old, but still well-muscled & spry ;-)

Location: outer space, obviously!

Playing for how long: 4C (apparently - early 2001?)

Favourite Ship: Microw, 'cept that it should be a single crew & red. Though personally I usually fly a Cloaker for practical/tactical reasons.

Favourite Race: Krills, coz they're just so me! :-) Bors 2nd, coz they were my first, plus the obvious name alliteration ;-)

Your mentor: Tough one - since I tend to argue with authority figures ;-) Learned a lot by example from too many to mention, though I guess that that old horse-botherer, the pilot called Legion*, gets top-slot. A fine role-model in every aspect of TVS, from the abuse of alchohol to the most efficient use of Legion News :-)

  • Really* awkward name, mind - eg. do I have to explain for non-players that Legion News is an essential game tool, rather than a personal propoganda sheet for Leggy? But I digress...

Something about yourself: Half-Orc. Left-handed. With wings, btw - a long story. Born of a human mother somewhere to the east of the Misty Mountains; how I came to be flying space-ships is another long story. Suffice to say that nowadays the non-Orcish part is transmogrified into whatever species is presently paying for my services. Except when I'm Krill, ofc, when I just get really *Boris* ;-)

As intelligent readers can already tell, I'm noted for being mouthy, obnoxious & a bit of a git. Surely the inevitable result of mixing a Half-Orc with a classical education (I ate an old man once who'd been classically educated). But on the plus side, I'm the creator & Editor of morale-boosting propoganda-casts for every legion... Sorry! I mean those completely accurate records of events, respected & trusted by all species across the galaxy, the Krill News, Tibran Times, Ajaxian Post & Boraxian Bugle. Also inventor of the TVS Free Gift & the Boraxian-sized Lizard Press.

I have LCed several times, typically with religious efficiency. However, recurring attacks of the RL-disease have often limited my term of office. Amazingly, records indicate that only twice have I actually led a Legion to final victory - Krill vs Jax & Jax vs Krill. Ofc, on all those other occassions, alien legions were aided by disease, environmental factors or the gods. Or all three.

As VR, I'm likely best-known for my late-night stints. And for shouting at ppl. As VR, the *two* things for which I'm best-known are my late-night stints & shouting at ppl. Also for my almost fanatical loyalty to LC. As VR, the *three* things for which I'm noted are late-night-stints, shouting at ppl. and almost fanatical loyalty to LC. And for never losing a battle which I choose to fight. As VR, the *four* main things...

Some other stuff about killing things - deleted coz it was boring ;)
