Dolvin

History
Quote Dolvin:
It was summer 1999, and my wife and I were playing EQ, in a guild called The Imperial Order. We allied with Scarab for the Bashin Order games, and started to regularly hunt with y'all. About that time, IO went through some drama and didn't survive it (I had been #2 in IO at that time) and Hawke and I had become very good friends. He quietly asked me if I was leaving IO and when I replied it wouldn't bother me, he offered to tag me Scarab. I accepted and was tagged (with my wife) at Highkeep that very night.
Less than a month later Scarab had their second RL meet in Atlantic City and Leigh and I, being newlyweds and childless, decided to go meet all these people we gamed with. The rest, as they say, is history. I met all the Scarabs, especially Jayfoot and his wife, who it turned out lived only 30 minutes away in the Northeast Atlanta suburbs. We started spending a lot more time with them and eventually bought the house up the street, and the concept of Scarabfest was born that next spring, 2000.
So after 7 years, not a founder, but not a newb, I'm still as happy today with my online family as I was 7 years ago. We're stronger, more stable, and more mature (I prefer that to simply saying "we're a bunch of old-ass gamers").

Dolvin's Story
The story of Dolvin is unlike many other stories. Rather than come from a poor, broken home, Dolvin grew up amidst the cool breezes of the Ocean of Tears. His parents were rich merchants of Freeport, and would frequently make trading visits all over Antonica. Rather than keep his son safely in their oceanfront castle, his father would take Dolvin along, showing him the safest way to travel from city to city, showing him what to avoid.
His father also furthered his education by enrolling him at the Temple of Marr's religious academy for non-clerical studies, declaring that "every young man needs a solid spiritual foundation." And so Dolvin grew up among the clerics and holy knights of Marr, studying the ways of Honor, Valor, Justice, and Sacrifice. As he reached adulthood, he found himself drawn more and more not to the mere studies of spirituality, but the exercising of those studies through combating evil.
Rather than be upset with his desire to become a holy Paladin of Marr, his parents supported his decision. Dolvin committed his life from then on to be in service to others. Joining the Knights of Truth in a solemn ceremony, his parents were pleased to see him continue in his training, and eventually he was posted to Rivervale to secure Misty Thicket from all manner of evil that would threaten the peaceful and carefree populace. Daily, Dolvin would venture forth to do battle with goblins and orcs, and repeatedly braced the goblin chieftain Mooto in his lair.
Over time, he became involved with first the Imperial Order, and now with Scarab. Through guild membership he continues to spread Mithaniel Marr's message of Honor, Valor, and Loyalty to all he comes in contact with. As he approaches his final passage to knighthood and the gaining of the 20th circle, Dolvin revels in the strength of his sword, his knowledge of the countryside, and the faithfulness of his friends to get him through the world around him.
