Elftowners, we bring to your attention an awesome role-player, a great artist and the creator of Himmels...it's [
Aeolynn]!
What's your name?
~ Kim Baerwaldt
What's the story behind your user name?
~ Originally, my username was Aeolian. I am obsessed with names and the element wind, coincidentally I also have a fascination with vowels. Aeolian was a perfect combination of all three. Aeolian are the people that follow the wind god Aeolus, however over a few years I searched for a way to make it more feminine. One day while wandering around World of Warcraft I found a NPC named Aeolynn! It was perfect and I've never looked back.
What are your hobbies?
~ Games. :) Most common are World of Warcraft and Team Fortress II. If I'm not playing games I'm either drawing or roleplaying. I love raiding with my guild, people might think that's silly and a waste of time, but they don't know what they are missing! A lot goes into coordinating twenty-five players, keeping the tanks alive, beating the enrage timer of the boss, and getting shiny loot of course!
How did you end up on Elftown?
~ Elfwood actually. I saw a post on the main page about Elftown and I was intrigued. The community was great, even a few months into its creation.
What was the inspiration behind himmels and other fantasy races?
~ Himmels are my pet project. They are actually one species of many in one of my worlds known as Kazaa. Being a bird lover and owning several parrots in my life, they were the original inspiration for them. Another was the dragons of Deviant Art... But I wanted something original, something no one has really seen before. Hence the himmel was born. They are a sub species of Eastern Dragons and retain their ability to fly without wings. People often underestimate a parrot when they see one; they see the pretty colors, the odd behavior and their song and voice. Many people do not realize that a macaw, one of the most recognized parrots have the strength to bite off a finger, or break your wrist with their beaks. Himmels are the parrots of the dragon world.
What is it you do mostly on Elftown?
~ Roleplay and keep in touch with some of my friends. I also am using Elftown to document my dog's life, as well as find commissions and to store information about my roleplay characters.
