Greetings, adventurers!

I’m Akromatik, the rootinist, arrow-shootinist, rollin’-for-lootinist Community Manager this side of Myth Nantar!

I fancy myself a “gamer anthropologist” and I want to use my know-how to help make this community a fun place we can come together and celebrate the amazing game that is Neverwinter.

Y’all will be seeing more of me in the weeks to come and I’m looking forward to having some fun with you all. I’ve been playing D&D for about 11 years and am a huge Forgotten Realms fan who loves dishing about past adventures…especially the crazy ones. I know I’ve got big shoes to fill, but I fully plan on picking up where Sominator left off. Keep your eyes peeled for Foundry Spotlights, Neverwinter Adventure Hours, and more!

Feel free to use this thread to ask me any questions you might have (within reason, of course)!

    Welcome to the madness that is managing an online community for a MMO.

    A minor question, but have you played any of the other Cryptic games (CoX, CO, & STO)?

    Nice to hear that you're not a complete newbie when it comes to Cryptic game design.

    Hope you get to share some of the inside stories you learn. :)

    Excellent! I like weird people! As for my sanity, I already traded it away for a glow-in-the-dark D20...

    Totally worth it.

    Welcome. Are you going to be running Team Fencebane Adventure Hours
    on Twitch channel? Or is Sominator still able to do that?
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?

    I fully intend to pick up where Sominator left off with the Team Fencebane Adventure Hour. In fact, I'd really love to keep Team Fencebane together for more Neverwintery shenanigans!

    No PhD here. But I do have BAs in both psychology and anthropology. I actually wanted to write my senior thesis on MMOs, but my prof wouldn't let me...so I wrote it on anime fan communities instead! I did, however, write a paper on D&D. I was only my first *real* college paper, but definitely one of my favorites.

    Twitter handle? Sure! Ask and you shall receive, Angry Sprite! https://twitter.com/NeverwinterGame ;D

    Oh PFFFT! I've been following THAT one since before you guys created it. Okay, then - if you won't have a Twitter alter-ego then fine. You are officially blessed by me (but I'm still an Angry Sprite). :P

    Really happy to have you here, we miss Som, not so much Som himself, but a warm body to berate and harass about. -winks-
    (Should I be embarrassed to state I still follow Som at Twitter? LOL)

    Hey, welcome home. We need you here. :)

    A new community manager? Excellent! And he's a weirdo gamer just like us? Even more excellent!

    Good to have you Akro. We'll try not to make it too hard on you as you ease int the job, but just remember this is an MMO forum. Here is where the vitriol pours forth like clear water from a mountain spring. You're in for a semi-depressing time, but it should be livened up by those of us that are actually friendly :p

    Why don't you pop on over to the arts and fiction section? Sprite, I, and a few others are going to be doing a March of the Cubes dealy and maybe you'd like to take part.

    Yey! Fresh meat. I mean, hail and well met new trap finder...I mean, party member!

    Here's a welcome present from all of us. It's definitely NOT a mimic. Probably not. Really, not a mimic. Maybe. Well, it could be. There's only one way to find out.
