User:Whitelaces/Tavin Flavura

The name Tavin Flavura started as one of the suggestions by the Tibia website. I don't remember what the original suggestion was, but I changed it a little to make it more memorable. I later found out that Flavura was used as the name of the main antagonist of a French fantasy series called The Helm. It is a very obscure writing from what I can tell, but that is the only reference to the name "Flavura" I have been able to find.

Mainland - 9/27/2005 - lvl 8, ml 1
Finally to level 8, it's time to join the esteemed community on the Tibia Mainland. After some deliberation, I have decided to become a Sorcerer. It was a tough decision, but it ultimately came down to the ability to make and use strong attack spells (like Sudden Death). I'm not an extremely aggressive player, but I would rather kill a strong monster I stumble upon, than heal myself and run away. Maybe I'll make another character someday and play as a knight or druid ~ only time will tell.

Arch Postman - 10/11/2005 - lvl 19, ml 21
Whew! After wearing out my leather boots, I have finally completed the Postman Quest. It was a lot of walking, and I even ran through the Ice Islands naked! Polar Bear Club, here I come! Anyway, the reward is worth it. Being able to use mailboxes near hunting grounds is an invaluable ability to have. Those loot bag thieves are hard enough to avoid!

Level 20 - 10/11/2005 - lvl 20, ml 21
I actually reached level 20! Someone else in my guild was very anxious to do the 10k Quest so they could afford to get promoted. As a result, I rushed a little since they needed a sorcerer. I found a bunch of Orcs, gathered them close together, and then GFBed the living daylights out of them. I gained the needed 12% in a matter of minutes, and then completed the 10k quest soon after.

Promotion - 10/12/2005 - lvl 20, ml 21
After gathering some funds, I spoke with the honorable King Tibianus III, and he promoted me to the rank of Master Sorcerer.

First Dragon - 10/17/2005 - lvl 21, ml 25
A friendly knight took me to kill a couple dragons. I brought my SDs and HMMs, and we killed every dragon we found (only two this time). It was pretty exciting, but there were mountains obscuring the view, so I didn't get any good screenshots. All this time I've spent exploring with friends and doing quests, I need to go hunting and get some more experience, and lay off of the more exciting monsters for a little while.

First Elf Arcanist - 10/18/2005 - lvl 21, ml 26
I was exploring near the Dwarf Bridge, and I came across a paladin who was trying to survive an Elf Arcanist. He apparently didn't expect to find him, because he asked for help. I didn't notice how much damage he had already done to the arcanist, but I used one SD, and he keeled over right away. It seemed a little too easy, but we both lived. I was a little disappointed in the loot, though. A melon, Sling Herb, and Candlestick hardly seem worth it.

Edron Orcs (and Giant Spider!) - 10/20/2005 - lvl 22, ml 26
I went with a small group of friends, and we conquered the Edron Orc Caves!. We encountered all kinds of orcs in droves, including Orc Leaders, and Orc Berserkers! We went all the way down and defeated the Giant Spider so we could get the Dark Armor from the Dark Armor Quest (and just to say we beat a GS). It was lots of fun! I took with me 2 Backpacks of GFB, 2 Backpacks of HMM, one Backpack of SD, and a bag of Explosion. By the time we made it back out, I had used all of my SD (on the Giant Spider), half of my HMM, and most of my GFB. I also walked away with 8800 more experience points from the 2-hour hunt!

Darashia Minotaurs - 10/20/2005 - lvl 24, ml 30
A small group of guild members went to Darashia to do the Stealth Ring Quest (some of them wanted to be able to hunt Necromancers - looking for Boots of Haste I think). At any rate, we went in with our GFBs blazing and slaughtered every creature in the place! The Minotaur Mages hurt us pretty bad a couple times, but we made it. In fact, after we finished the quest, I stayed there for a while with a knight, and we went back down a couple times just for fun (and for the Exp and loot). Another fun and successful day hunting baddies!

First Demon Skeleton - 11/07/2005 - lvl 26, ml 30
I was exploring a hole near Ankrahmun with a knight protector. We we doing fine against all of the Skeletons, Cobras, Ghouls, even the Stalkers that would sneak up on us, when suddenly a Demon Skeleton walked around the corner! I didn't notice what it was at first, but when I did, I quickly reached for my Sudden Death runes, and started wailing on him. It took only 2 SDs, and he was finished. Not as difficult as I was afraid, but exciting none-the-less.

First Hydra - 01/14/2005 - lvl 41, ml 46
A friend took a couple of us to do the Hydra Egg Quest. We didn't originally plan on actually staying and killing the Hydra down there, but since I had some SD runes on me, we decided to try it. It didn't take too long with 2 Knights and two shooters, and I only went in the red once, but no one died!

Level 50 and Black Knight - 03/02/2006 - lvl 50, ml 53
After about a week of hunting pretty hard for experience, I finally reached level 50! Within a couple hours, a friend blocked the Black Knight for me so I could complete the Black Knight Quest. Crown Armor and Crown Shield were both good upgrades for me, in terms of capacity AND protection.

We stayed there for a little while and killed a couple more Black Knights before leaving. No good loot, but that Black Knight isn't as hard as I thought he was going to be.

Crusader Helmet and First Solo GS - 03/09/2006 - lvl 50, ml 54
I was heading to the mines to collect some White Mushrooms (and hopefully a Dwarven Ring), get some Exp, and wait for a friend to come online so we could go do the Crusader Helmet Quest. He's done it already, but was going to block for me.

Well, silly me. Instead of waiting, I decided to try and solo it since I didn't know how much longer he was going to be. Wasn't too bad. I was very nervous, but it was really no big deal since the Giant Spiders only came one at a time.

Well, I completed the quest, killed a few GS, and even got a Time Ring as bonus loot from one of them!

First Dragon Lord - 03/13/2006 - lvl 51, ml 54
Myself and two friends decided to go and try hunting Dragon Lords. We went to the large Dragon spawn to the north of Ankrahmun. After clearing all of the dragons, we went up to the Dragon Lords. We cleared the whole area a couple times. Our blocker almost died when he had Two Dragon Lords on him at once, but we all survived! We also walked away with the best loot I have ever seen ... a Royal Helmet.

Ancient Scarabs Solo - 04/06/2006 - lvl 53, ml 56
I spent some time killing Ancient Scarabs by myself. There are a few things that they drop that I'm looking to add to my collection. I'm alright as long as I stay near the steps. Those buggers are really tough. More difficult to kill since they paralyze you. I think I'll do better hunt them with a blocker. So far I've looted an Ancient Amulet, Scarab Amulet, two Scarab Shields, 20-25 Magic Light Wands, and 16-20 Plate Armors. Not worth the runes I've spent, but it has been fun anyway.

Ashta'daramai and Tear of Daraman - 04/27/2006 - lvl 57, ml 57
After three trips into the Ashta'daramai, I finally found the Tear of Daraman. On my first trip I used 5 backpacks of Mana Fluids and 2 backpacks of SD runes, but on my most recent excusion I managed to do it with only 2 backpacks of Mana Fluids and 1.5 backpacks of SD. Eventually I'll be able to do it where I can actually make money killing these things, but that will be a long time from now I think.

Level 60 and Ultimate Explosion - 05/01/2006 - lvl 60, ml 58
After 4 or 5 days of relative power-gaming, I finally reached level 60! I was very excited and went to buy my Ultimate Explosion spell right away. Some guild members that were on wanted to come and see the first time I cast it, so we went over to the Giant Spider near Darashia to test it out. Over 800 damage! Not a very efficient way to hunt Giant Spiders, but it was very exciting anyway. Now it's time to get some groups together and do some hard quests.

Orc Fort and Medusa Shield - 05/05/2006 - lvl 60, ml 58
With my Ultimate Explosion spell procured, we got a group of people together to go Orc Fort. I think only one or two of us had done the Orc Fort quest already, but all of us needed to talk to the king for part of our djinn quests.

Eight backpacks of Mana Fluid later, we had killed so many orcs that I was seeing green everywhere we went. It was so much fun that I wanted to go again! Good thing we have more guild members that still need to do that quest! I came away with nearly 90k more exp from the trip (it is split over two days on Erig's list)!

After defeating Ulderek's Rock, a smaller group of us went to kill some undead creatures in Drefia and do the Medusa Shield quest. There was another place I had never been! I was also very excited about how much lighter the shield and robe were. Now I can carry more mana fluids and runes when we go hunting!

This was quite the exciting weekend!

Green Djinn Quest Completed! - 05/07/2006 - lvl 60, ml 58
Now that we had talked to the orc king, it was time to finish the djinn quest. Until friday I expected to be on my own in the tower, but a friend (a knight.... thank goodness) decided to join me on the green quest instead of the blue one. We had quickly gone up to get his Tear of Daraman before we went to the orc fort on friday, and today we decided to go and finish the quest.

It was much more difficult than I thought it would be. On the way up, my friend died, but that didn't stop us. I waited downstairs for him, and we went right back into the fray. The final room was the MOST difficult. On the other floors, we were able to jump up, my blocker would take the hits, I would UE, then we would drop down and regroup. The final room was a door, and our normal method of attack wouldn't work. After trying a couple different things, I finally had to just step in the doorway and UE. It was luck I didn't get hit too many times, or I wouldn't have had enough mana to attack. If I had been hit after casting UE, then I probably would have died.

Fate was on our side, and I was able to step into the doorway, UE, and killed almost everything in the room. After that, my friend stood in the doorway, and I threw SD through to finish off the final Marid.

I'm glad that they had not respawned on the floors below us, because I had used all 6 backpacks of mana fluid that I brought along, and 2 more that my friend had brought.

Completed Quests
These are the quests that I have completed with this character, and the RL date that it was done. Some of these were completed with the help of friends. I try not to spoil a quest completely before I do it, and I don't do them just to get the loot. It's an adventure!

Dream Equipment
Nearly all of these items are in the distant future for me, but in case you were wondering, any combination of the following equipment would be outstanding to own:

Probable Next Equipment
This is stuff that I do not have yet, but am keeping an open eye for good deals. Being a Sorcerer, weight is important.
