Introduction

So an old online friend of mine decided to take back up an old MMORPG that we initially met on: Wizard 101; a game, I admit, I had not taken up in eight years. It wasn’t really that I had lost interest in the game; more that college exams were taking up more and more of my free time and I just didn’t have the time to play the game anymore save for maybe a bit of gardening and that was about it. That and some unfortunate events revolving around in forum and in game fights that I am not really proud of. Since then I had delved into Wizard 101’s sister game: Pirate 101. Personally I prefer Pirate 101 most due to combat mechanics being more my playstyle and I enjoyed the story. Honestly I felt like I actually had impact/involvement within the story than just your standard chosen one narrative that Wizard 101 typically employs (at least with the Malistaire arc-the others I don’t know). However, now with a better income and a more manageable time schedule I decided to start back in fresh. I still had all my old account data but I figured it would be easier to ease into the new mechanics from the get go and thus I created a new avatar just for this occasion. The following series of notes or Reports will be about my new experiences with this game: what I remember, what is going on now, thoughts, etc. So feel free to hop onto this journey of Back to Wizard’s Square 101.
