Thread: Why did you become a dancer?
I was passing by the cantina the first week of the game. When I went in I just thought 'WOW I love the dances she is doing and the clothes she is wearing'. I knew then I would drop scout and become a dancer. One month later after taking time off tohelp my PA get there PA hall I was a master Dancer.
Mez Master dancer dancing for the love of dance!
One of my favorite moments in SWG was when I got heckled by a guy in Keren who then challenged me to a duel.He lasted about 5 seconds.
Mmmmm, maybe I should rethink my ideas about my character being too "delicate" to be a TKM . . .
"Did I SAY you could kiss me? You must have a death wish, then, buster!" Buahhahhhahahhhahaha!
I became a dancer because I love dancing in real life. I find it to be a beautiful and fun form of self-expression.
Originally, I had wanted to be a dancer/BH, until I realized I wouldn't have the skill points to do it all. So I "settled" for M. Dancer / M. Pistoleer, then I evolved into M. Dancer/M. Smuggler.
my main character is currently trying architect (read my sig) but trying to solo it i have a lot of time waiting for resources, so i thought of starting a new character on another server just to fill the time.
i read a few of the various guides and read one on a fan site, i think it may have been writen by Sultrina, that role-play / interaction with the customers was such an important part of a dancer / entertainer. normally i try to solo professions but i thought why not try something different.
after the first 2 days i was hooked. i spend much more time now with this new character.
Then I found I was drawn to the roleplaying and socialization aspects. I was amazed that a game company had given so much effort and cared so much about people who love to roleplay and socialize.
Of course, now I know better.
(shh, i'm really a sim)
Anyway, a friend of mine from TSO invited me to come play this game. I told her no way jose, I'm not really a gamer, I only play sims cause it's silly and lighthearted. She tells me "you can be an entertainer" to wich i reply "would I have to shoot stuff?". She tells me shooting stuff is probably the best part of the game to which i cringe and decline the invitation. Then she tells me "you can bite people". Well, 10 minutes later I'm in the WallMart Picking up my copy of the game.
The only thing I had any interest in was Dancing and being a goof. While this is no longer true, my best times are still had while dancing. I like to throw parties and be social and encourage others to do the same. Mostly I like to feel appreciated by and usefull to my friends. Dancingprovides that for me.
