Hi Fellow Rangers, This is my first post on these forums, and after reading a few posts by other users, and about the guilds, I've decided that the Rangers are for me. *Crash buys a round of drinks for his buddies at the bar* I'd like to introduce myself briefly, as well as pledge myself to the Rangers for Feb-Mar challenge. By day I go by the name Mark, I'm the Head of IT at a company in Cape Town, South Africa. I'm married and have just had our first baby with my wonderful wife (literally, he's 2 weeks old). By night I'm leveling up my Ranger skills as much as I can, in order to be a fit (not fat) hero that can smite the evils that appear! This Ranger is definitely a cross between the Scout and Warrior, being able to do both reasonably well. My Scouting abilities have been vexed recently as I was injured in a running tournament and hurt my ankle quite badly, the healer is only going to be able to look at it in mid Feb, but prior to that I was able to run far afield between the towns (21.1km). My Warrior has come to the fore as a result of my scouting injury, and have since spent many an hour in the training ground improving my strength. I'm in the process of planning out my 2017 quests - http://www.geartime.co.za/the-story/quests-for-2017/ - and the quests that I have assigned for this challenge are aligned to my overall epic quests. Quest #1 - Slay the Fat Dragon - Vitality Quest (Note: This is for the full 2017, not just this challenge) Quest Completion Criteria: Reach 12% Body Fat Summary: I’m aiming high here. Currently my body fat percentage is in the 25% range. It’s going to take lots of cardio and lifting to get in shape. Worth it. Side Quests for Feb-Mar challenge (+2 STR, +1 STA) . Do 25 consecutive push ups . Do 1 chin up . Squat 50kgs (roughly half my body weight) x10 reps . Deadlift 50kgs (roughly half my body weight) x10 reps Quest #2 – Love thy Wife, Love thy Son – Family Quest (Note: This is for the full 2017, not just this challenge) Quest Completion Criteria: TBA Side Quests for Feb-Mar challenge (+1 CHA) .
