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 back in June. 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 would chat, and I may have been slightly elitist coming on to Hades, and she was generally pretty quick to put me in my place XD Moving on. 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 managed to use fsck in conversation (gogo geek!). Not being one to try to get involved with people on a video game (a vow I took once after I learned about two people meeting on EQ and getting married IRL), I didn't really pursue anything. However, as time passed, we got to know each other a lot better, and we just got along well together. Clicked, whatever. During my progression to 75, she helped me with things that most people had to shout for hours in Jeuno/Whitegate to accomplish. We've duoed a lot of stuff in our time ;P

Regardless, we finally met face to face in October of 2006, and although we didn't have a whole lot of real life time together, we knew there was something else going on. So we made plans to spend Christmas together. We figured, since we worked so well together, why not just go for it? So on December 28, 2006, a few thousand miles away from anything either of us really consider home, we were married. &hearts; &hearts; &hearts; &hearts;

Job Levels
I'm addicted to the level up animation. BLM is at 75. WHM was getting close, but was halted for CoP. MNK is done, and WHM is back on track. From there? I have no idea. I've been working slowly on RDM, which I need as a sub for BLM, but will use it to pair up with Eleri. I like SAM and WAR, but I don't have THF sub, so I'll be working on that too. Otherwise, I've been wanting to try some real solo or duo play, so BST or DRG are viable options.

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.

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.

Quests
I like quests, this is what I've done.

Merit Points
This is just a layout for how I want to merit. Its fairly obvious that my layout for now is for MNK. They'll remain empty for a while, as I cannot merit a job which I don't have at 75. I can, however, merit some regular melee things, such as Crits and STR. I've also started working on HP, although that isn't as pressing. For the most part, they are in the order I wish to complete them in, although I may do work on BLM specific things as I feel necessary. This probably won't see much action for about the next month, but really, at the rate I am levelling MNK, it probably won't be too long before you see some real action here. The big tossup for me is whether or not to start working on MNK specific merits or STR first. I'll work that out when I get there. For now, here is the list:
