Bio:	I'm a 5 year player of RuneScape with an untrimmed Cooking cape and I am proud of that! But anyway, aside from my passion for cooking in RS, I love slayer, which gives me a passion for the Bestiary. I also train pretty much every other skill, which is why I often work on guides too. When I'm not on RS, I'm playing my Bass/Singing, or playing one of my many games across various consoles, or listening to music. I'm currently starting a college course, which is called Extended Diploma in Music, and I just completed a course in Music Tech too (so I am a total music/game nerd).

Overall, I'm a pretty quiet guy, but I treat people the same way they treat me, so I may come off as rude to rude people and so on. I began playing RuneScape around the time RS2 was first released in 2004, so my account is about 8 years old. I've been on the Editorial Panel since June of 2011 and it has been quite an enjoyable experience!
