Spiral Knights history

Since the day I joined Spiral Knights which was the very day it was released on Steam, I've spent more than 2500 hours in the game. Going guildless for most of my early career, I eventually joined Templar Knights very briefly and then stayed with Aeonic Doom for two years. Aeonic Doom died and eventually, I moved on to join The Jempire. Eventually, most Jempire members retired from SK and went on to RIFT, which I did not enjoy much. Therefore, I joined Halcyons a while after Jempire had become rather inactive. I also have ties to Shard Squad (which branched out of Aeonic Doom), founded by my good friend Zeddy.

I've always enjoyed the art of swinging a blade in games and it's something I consider myself to have become quite good at. Nowadays, I mostly use purely swords in Clockwork runs and it sure is fun. If you have a question about swordsmanship or swordswomanship, don't be afraid to send me a /tell or a mail!

Personal info

My real name is Jakob. I've always had an interest for logic, maths, and whatnot. Programming has been one of my favourite hobbies since I was 11. Other than that, I enjoy playing the bass every once in a while, playing games, and doodling cats.
