A compilation of my character "Brave-Smoke" (Burglar class) on Lord of The Rings Online. You may find me on the Mordor VIP server.

"Welcome to the city of New Kaineng, a metropolis of culture, heritage, and innovation. After the old city was partially destroyed during the Zhaitan Disaster, the people of Cantha worked to rebuild. Largely in thanks to Xunlai Jade and the discovery of dragonjade, New Kaineng became a pioneer of innovation. Today, we flourish under a vision of renewed hope. People from all stretches of Cantha live together within these walls. Together. Guided by the unflinching support of our Ministries, New Kaineng is a city for the people. Together, we will create a better Cantha. Tomorrow, a better world."

New Kaineng City (New Emperor's City in Old Canthan) is a zone on the northwestern coast of Cantha. A megalopolis in the Empire of the Dragon, it is located south of the Old Kaineng City ruins and bordered by the Echovald Forest on the southeast.

New Kaineng is the largest and most developed urban area in Cantha, featuring multiple street levels and high rise buildings, served by the latest advancements in the dragonjade technology. Headquarters of the Ministries of Cantha and the Xunlai Jade corporation are located here, as well as several research laboratories and the Central Power Station that provides power to the entire city.

Various methods of transportation are available, from canal streets for skiffs to Jade Tech Teleporters, Raptor Taxis, and the Zip Lines connecting upper and lower levels of the city.

The Jade Monument at the western end of the city is a monument to Soo-Won, made in her honor for saving Cantha from the tsunami caused by the Zhaitan Disaster.

Before the world of Tyria existed, there was only the void, that is when Soo-Won created the world and the other Elder Dragons (her children, or scions - (Zhaitain, Jormag, Primordus, Krallkatorik, and Mordremoth) in Mother's Lament, so as not to feel alone. She intended that they would bring peace, balance, and harmony to the natural magic of the world. She set each of them over particular domains of magic and took the domain of Water for herself.

Initially the other five dragons were created as mindless tools to bring balance and harmony to the fabric of magic, by filtering the Void into six domains of magic in the All. Over time Soo-Won's children began to develop personalities and fascination, so they soon left Soo-Won for the world, becoming hostile towards their siblings and their mother.

Soo-Won, like the other Elder Dragons, is assumed to have last awakened 10,000 years ago, around the time of the disappearance of the Great Giants, and then fallen back into slumber after consuming all the world's available magic. Little information about this dragon has survived to the present day. Ancient jotun stelae mention a "sextet of swallowers" which are said to have consumed the world several times over.

Having learned of the horrible effects her children have had on the world, Soo-Won turns to Aurene. Soo-Won wants Aurene to end the Dragon Cycle by becoming the All, like Soo-Won once was, and controlling Tyrian magic alone.

"Soo-Won and the Great Wave"

Long ago, a hungry dragon woke up. Fearsome Zhaitan emerged from a long sleep, intent on eating the whole world. His awakening caused a massive wave, which tore across the ocean—straight for Cantha.

The people looked on in terror as it came their way. No one knew what to do. No one, that is, except for the saltspray dragon Kuunavang. She told the emperor and empress, "I will get help. Keep the people safe." And so noble Kuunavang flew as fast as she could to the home of the great dragon Soo-Won.

"Soo-Won!" she cried. "We need you! A great wave is coming, and it will wash away the people of Cantha!" Hearing her words, Soo-Won rose from the Endless Ocean and said, "I will come," and together, the two dragons flew to where the raging waters now washed over Cantha.

When they arrived, the flood had already destroyed the city of Kaineng, and the people were running, fast as they could, deeper into Cantha, the wave chasing right at their heels. With a swoop of great wings, Soo-Won landed, placing herself between the wave and the people.

She stared down the oncoming water and commanded it, "Stop." The wave crashed in front of Soo-Won, as if an invisible cliff now stood in front of her. The water raged, swirling and splashing, trying to get through, but then the great dragon gave a second command, "Retreat."

The wave had no choice but to obey. It recoiled and slipped backward, slowly and gently, so that it could do no more harm as it retreated back to the ocean. The people of Cantha cheered for Soo-Won, and they cheered for noble Kuunavang.

But Soo-Won did not stay to take part in the celebrations. She slipped away, with a promise that she would always be nearby, and that if another disaster should strike, she would return. Until then, she would rest. And noble Kuunavang stayed among the humans so that if time came, she could wake Soo-Won once again. And the people of Cantha rested easy, knowing they had two dragons watching over them as they slept.

I was an OG Guild Wars 1 player since release back in....i dunno sometime round 2005.

I loved Guild Wars 1, it was my first ever mmorpg.

A decade and some later GW2 comes out and it's not the same game as the first. I still have had some good memories on GW2.

This here is a compilation, with traditional Chinese GuQin music, of the turtle mount that took 2 weeks to unlock.

I started playing League of Legends back in Season 2. I still remember the pixelated maps and the OG slower mechanics.

It was a simplier time where the community was not so toxic. Me and a bunch of friends who often chilled at my other friend's Internet Gaming Cafe downtown would pull many allnighters on this game.

Now time has passed and coming back to this game sort of breaks my heart seeing what it's become, what the company done to it's employees and founding members, as well as Riot's takeover by another bigger badder meaner organization with it's own political agenda.

I still log on from time to time.

This video is one of my favourite "fuck up" vids. I'm here playing Lux against a Darius. It's a replay of a match that i had against an enemy team (therefore the fog-of-war was disabled during replay).

I cannot begin to tell you how much i pissed myself laughing during this fight, after and after again watching.

Hope you enjoy!

PS - yes, my playername is "turtlegod". Goes back 15 years at least.

On original run I had whole team except Ela due CM ban, so this time I decided to up challenge. Laterano only without Exu2 was... not doable so if I must have a medic... why not male only? Oh boy.... let's just say video is cut in half due amount of stall.

Season 5 (2026)

Aquí expongo mis razones de por qué no voy a comprar más gráficas dedicadas, y mantendré mi decisión mientras la industria de los videojuegos siga enloquecida.
