Here’s a rather elaborate Warcraft character bio in Wikipedia’s User Pages for Algormortis, self-described elite priest of the Horde. Which reminds me, I’ve tried a few of the equipment profilers available for Warcraft and they really blow. It’s not like the EQ days when everyone had a Magelo page and we passed out our Magelo ID like it was our cell number. Think that’s my primary beef, there’s too many Warcraft profilers around — we need ONE.

It’s true, there are way too many. I’ve tried thottbot (you can see my character profiles on my blog from thottbot) and WarcraftRealms, but the best way I found was to use Character Profiler and host it yourself. My guild website does that. That’s one of the best all around packages I’ve seen. But yeah, there’s about a hundred different options and everyone’s using one of them.
I love Wikipedia. I fixed a couple obvious errors in that biography (the spelling of “The Sepulchre” and “Eastern Kingdoms,” not Kalimdor n00b).
I always had a soft spot for Allakhazam’s character profiles, but I found it to be unreliable at updating all our characters.
Um, maybe you’re British and it’s different there. But Sepulcher is spelled like that everywhere I’ve seen it in game. 🙂 Just double checked the official site, and if you click through on the map to Silverpine Forest, it’s there, The Sepulcher.
I, too, love Wikipedia.
