Who is Toxictaru
I am Toxictaru, from Hades. I was going to work on Claustrum but sadly its not overly useful for most people. I recently came back from a few months hiatus from Dynamis, but I've joined a daytime shell, as it better suits my needs. I have recently made my way in to Sea, and I've been doing Limbus regularly. Beyond that, I haven't been doing a whole lot, mostly EXPing on lower level jobs.

Eleri
Eleri and I met shortly after I moved from Sylph to Hades in June, 2006. I had been moving BLM along and was getting ready to hit up the Dunes. I got a random invite, partied for a while, and seeked again. Not long after, I got an invite from another party. In this party was a sackholder of a rather social linkshell known as RamenNoodles. I joined up quickly, and not long after, I was made a sack myself.

Eleri and I chatted a lot. I may have been slightly elitist coming on to Hades, and she was generally pretty quick to put me in my place. Around the time I was level 20, I was hanging around in Jeuno doing something, and we struck up a conversation. I think the linkshell was pretty dead, and well, we just got to chatting. I knew pretty quickly that we'd be friends when she used fsck in conversation (gogo geek!). I wasn't trying to start a relationship over a video game (I thought it was dorky after I heard of a couple who were married after meeting on EQ), I didn't actively pursue anything. However, as time passed, we got to know each other better, and we just got along well together. Clicked, whatever. On my first trip to 75, she helped me with a lot of stuff on the way. Instead of spending countless hours shouting in Jeuno, she'd take me out for AF coffers, limit breaks, and NMs that dropped stuff I could benefit from on BLM. We've duoed quite a few things that a lot of people can't.

Regardless, we finally met in person in October of 2006. Although we didn't get to spend a lot of time together, we realized we worked well together. Of course this meant plans for spending Christmas together. Through some circumstance and simply just wanting to do it, we decided we'd get married during the holidy. On December 28, 2006, a few thousand miles away home, we were married. &hearts; &hearts; &hearts; &hearts;

Job Levels
I'm addicted to the level up animation. BLM and MNK are both level 75. WHM was left at 60 so I could finish CoP, but I've recently started it back up, and it is nearly done. Past that, I have some subs to level. Ive also been duoing DRG with Eleri lately, and we're getting better at it. This is my progress so far:

Mission Status
I love missions. I play RPGs for the story, and FFXI is definitely no exception. I have completed Rise of the Zilart, Chains of Promathia, San d'Oria Rank 10, and the bulk of Windurst and Bastok. I do the Treasures of Aht Urhgan missions as they come out, but the story is kind of hard to keep track of as we don't get a whole lot in the way of constant mission additions ; ; That said, the story so far is really great, and I wish they'd focus on it a little more.

Windurst: Rank 8 San d'Oria: Rank 10 Bastok: BM8-1, The Chains That Bind Us Rise of the Zilart: Complete (Suppanomimi) Chains of Promathia: Complete (Rajas Ring) Treasures of Aht Urhgan: AUM33, Sentinels' Honor

Crafting
I like crafting. Its a wonderful waste of time (and money). Alchemy is parked at 60, as I have no desire to take it any higher. Goldsmithing is my main, and I will be taking that as high as I can without going insane. I put some time in to Woodworking, but it was originally just to make money on shihei, but I never bothered to finish getting there. I'm working on some GP items for Goldsmithing, currently the glasses.

Shaded Spectacles progress: 57,350/70,000

Gods and HNMs
Bigger stuff I've killed:

Gods: Seiryu, Suzaku, Byakko, Genbu, Kirin HNMs: Cerberus, Khimaira, Adamantoise, Xolotl, Hydra, Tzee Xicu the Manifest, King Vinegarroon

My time on FFXIclopedia
I spend most of my time here using the site as a resource. I don't do as much editing as I could, but its mostly because I am lazy. I spend a lot of time reading forums and maintaining my blog. I also maintain the Pop NMs guide, which lists all of the pop-type NMs across Vana'diel, and the requirements for popping them. Lately, however, I've been doing a lot of work on the Einherjar pages.

Quests
This quest list was originally taken from Nynaeve's user page. I had once credited her, here, but through some edits, it was lost. I add it back. I still really do appreciate you doing the work on this :)

I like doing quests when I have nothing else to do while seeking party, or when I don't feel like doing anything heavy (like EXPing or doing missions). I've knocked off nearly half of the available quests. I like using this list as a reference to what quests I can do in a city, and sometimes I'll just go somewhere and start working away.

Merit Points
I plan on meriting MNK fully. I'm getting near completion on H2H, and then its going to be some MNK Group 2 merits. In the meantime, I'm doing little bits of BLM meriting as I need it. Progress will be more steady as I get more settled in on other stuff.
