I played on Xev. I bought the game in 2001 or 2002 (whenever Kunark came out), installed it, logged-in and made a wood-elf ranger. Within 5 minutes of logging-in I fell off a platform in Kelethin and died. I said to myself "This game sucks," logged-out, and didn't try to play again until about 6 months later. I don't remember the name.
The second time I made a barbarian warrior. I made it to lvl 3 and got trained and died somewhere. I couldn't find my corpse, died two more times trying, said to myself "This game sucks," and didn't play again for another month or so. His name was Womak.
The third time was the charm. I made a half-elf ranger and played him to 50. It took about a year to get there as I'm no power-gamer. That was Rinaldi. It helped that my brother started playing on my third attempt as a shaman named Womack and he kept me alive...a tough task.
