DarK_RaideR Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Welcome Corinne! Muddydancer is correct, for starters you can look for some socializing threads, such as this one or the Campus tour mini challenges. If you have the time, browse the Challenge boards and try to find people that have similar goals as you or something about their threads that you enjoy, such as a specific theme that you like. Good luck on your first challenge! Quote Lvl 50 Ranger Hello! Is it cheese you're looking for? Link to comment

Polgara19 Posted April 17, 2015 Report Share Posted April 17, 2015 Driz'zt would definitely be up there for me, but I would also like some female role models!Who would I be? Well if we are going for the ideal, there is only one that comes to mind for me.

Morag Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 Among the male role models, I'd have to go for with Jon Snow. But then.... I'm not male.

tourennatrix Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 Hey Rangers and rangers-to-be, can I join in? I'm still trying to find my ranger role model... I do like the idea of Max from Dark Angel though. Really enjoyed that show! My current challenge focuses on running, yoga, and not eating everything in sight, which seems to point more towards scout or druid or something along those lines, but I feel like I aim to be pretty well-rounded in my routines. Once I get back into the swing of things, I intend do be doing varied bodyweight workouts and cardio to round out my regime as it stands. My goals are to max out my Stamina (running the entirety of a 5k), Dexterity (yoga and stretches for increased flexibility), Constitution with a dash of Strength (Abs work, push ups). Plus as life side quests I'm working on my Wisdom (taking control of finances, making sure I keep learning new things) and Charisma (finding self-confidence through therapy). 1 Quote Link to comment

DarK_RaideR Posted April 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Welcome to the party, tourennatrix. Nutrition is a common goal for pretty much every Rebel and there's plenty of rangers that do yoga or running, or both and maybe even more! 1 Quote Lvl 50 Ranger Hello!

honeybadger Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 Hi there Rangers. I'm Honeybadger and I need help! I think this is where I belong. I am having a bit of an identity crisis as my goal is focused on running at the moment. That suggests I would be a scout. However, I tend to run slowly over short distances and focus more on strength and endurance rather than speed. If not for a shoulder injury (thanks Crossfit) my goals would be much more diverse. I guess Rangers just feel more like home...
