vengefulpear Posted September 23, 2014 Report Share Posted September 23, 2014 GUILD LEADER ANNOUNCEMENT As some of you may have guessed from Batwoman's posting in this thread she has now been raised to the official and lofty heights of Guild Leadership! She has long been being awesome on Nerd Fitness and now she has suitable superpowers to prove it! Please do congratulate her! Here's her message she wrote an a brief intro! Hey Assassins! Your friendly neighborhood Batwoman here and I am becoming a Guild Leader. Why? Well because this community (and more specifically the Assassins guild) has been there to encourage me on my journey to a healthier leveled-up me. Since starting my first six-week challenge I’ve lost 30 lbs, gained strength, accomplished my first chin-up and started to like running (which I know is still weird). I accomplished all of these things due to the great Nerd Fitness community and the constant motivation and inspiration I receive on the forums each day. Now I want to be in a position to give back what I have been given and make this guild the best that there is and I think I can do that rather well from a Guild Leader position. So I’ll be taking on some more leadery things to make the guild run smoothly and awesomely and all other excellent adverbs. Also feel free to get in touch with me if you need anything or if you are looking for gifs, because I’m really good at gifs. 17 Assassin Guild Leader Trainee STR: 2 | DEX: 2 | STA: 2 | CON: 3 | WIS: 3 | CHA: 3 Current Challenge: Vengefulpear Revives!
