The class...

Not really sure why I picked a gnome. Just thought they looked cute. :) *Shrug* The class on the other hand was picked carefully. There really isn't any other class to choose, warlocks rock. :D

We have minions, can keep the healer alive in dungeons, summon party members and fear kite people around. >:D

Think it is the anarchist in me who loves warlocks, not really bound by rules on how things should be. Wanna dabble in black magic? *Shrug* Why not? Fight with a sword? Yea. Become a demon and tank for a while? Sure. Fear kite your targets and suck the life out of them, gaining health in a battle. Or just summon your "friends" to the bottom of the sea when you are bored. Watching them drown while you have Unending breath. Giggle. Life is grand as a warlock. :D

Oh, did someone say mana break? I'll just Life tap and drain back the health from my next target.

The name...

Why Shogoth?

It is taken from the name of a monster in a novel by H.P Lovecraft, my favourite author.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoggoth

Shogoth sounded softer than shoggoth, so I choose a single g instead of two. :)

I also like the tale of how the shoggoths were slaves but later evolved a mind of their own. ...but I don't think we should over-analyze that part too much... :D

Yay! 5k+ gs!

Shogoth finally managed to pass the magic 5k mark with his gear score. Would have done that long ago if I only had bothered to read up a little...a quick visit to the vendor and a bunch of honor points later I got the epic achievment and nice new gs. :)

If I only could let go of my three-year-olds attitude of "I want to do it myself" and ask my friend to enchant some stuff instead of doing it myself I might actually start doing some real dmg aswell. :D

(Yes, Móón, I'm talking about you. :) But you are never online when I remember I need the ench.)

The story of Sho and the guy behind him.

So, who is Sho? Shogoth is a tiny gnome. Who wasn't really supposed to be in WoW in the first place. But after a 10 day trial there was no turning back. :)

Apparently some people say he looks a bit like Jonas, the guy that controlls him. And if you wonder Jonas is the guy to the left.

No, wait a minute. Eh.. Jonas is in the ... eh.. right picture. lol, how could I be misstaken? There are no leather sofas in WoW. ...anyway...

Before we start describing Sho's journey let me tell you a litle about Jonas. He is an ordinary computer nerd born in 1973. Very nice, very shy, doesn't make much noise. Works as a systemadministrator. Is really really addicted to WoW... o.O ... Weird sense of humor. Listens alot to Pink Floyd. And he loves his kids. :')

Thats about it. :)
