As the name suggestion, Patchouli is not the first identity that I have assumed in Haven and I think it is time for me to reveal who I am before. My actual identity is originally Dataslycer, which some people may know already. Now I know some people will have questions of all of this but I will want to answer some before they are asked.
I had started the alternative persona deal at the beginning of world 3 whom I had played as a hermit though (even trading with Sodom whom was Dataslycer's faction). However, the persona didn't really stick much as they were frankly uninteresting and too similar to how I acted as Dataslycer. It wasn't until world 5 when I create an entire personality that was quite different from me and that was Patchouli_Knowledge. Whereas Dataslycer was sometimes, silly yet, creative, and popular, Patchouli Knowledge was mostly methodical, polite, and uninvolving. And both persona were in different factions. It also gave me a reason to not be involved in a big faction and project my perspective from another's view. It wasn't until mid world 5 before I was starting to see Pandemonium's rapidly declining state when I decided to transfer most/all of my effort into Patchouli instead. Which required a catalyst. Dataslycer's toon's death.
The character went into what is highly suspected as a trap set by NNN. He chased a naked toon into a house cellar in which 7 fully equipped toon appeared while another appeared on the cellar entrance to prevent escape. The toon only had 400 UA so it wasn't a big deal to replace especially considering I was living on Ramones's plot. The pearl necklace I had on was left in the cabinet in the home and I think i was wearing a steel helmet instead of a d-helm (can someone from NNN confirm?). After a few weeks, Dataslycer disappeared and Patchouli (people shortened it down to Patch) unintentionally became a prominent figure in Haven and even became an IP member (so yes I had two personas in there but only one at a time). I honestly didn't expect for people to notice me particularly.
I want to be clear with everyone there is no ulterior motive of this action was independent from the interest of my faction or another else's interest. If anyone still is skeptic of the validity of my identity. I can log in both name on my home's internet and a moderator can check. I also apologize if anyone feels like I have deceived you or have broken your trust and hope I can reconcile.

Mkay, if true you're weird if not true still weird.

You are what you make yourself. An act of concealment is not a bad thing if the intention is not to hurt. Be you and have fun!

Re: Patchouli Knowledge's true identity.
I think, unfortunately, that not many people here grew up with the presence of Dataslycer so they lack any perspective to give this statement weight. I think it's pretty cool though.

I remember when that happened.Patchouli_Knowledge wrote: The character went into what is highly suspected as a trap set by NNN. He chased a naked toon into a house cellar in which 7 fully equipped toon appeared while another appeared on the cellar entrance to prevent escape.

Re: Patchouli Knowledge's true identity.
So you were playing two toons, in opposing factions, and had two seperate accounts both in the inner party?
That's quite an accomplishment.
You're weird..

Re: Patchouli Knowledge's true identity.
Not opposing factions. In fact they don't know much of each other.
