Hi, I'm Alphablast, but that is just the nickname you know me under. My real name is
Stephan, which is a Dutch one. I live in Holland, and I'm born in 1987, Amsterdam. Shilla
is a very nice game to keep you occupied when you are bored, when listening to music, when
feeling the need to chat with other generous people, when you want to do something while contemplating
about thinking about thinking things over, or just when you want to play a nice game. After so many
years it is like a second home, not only to me, but for many I'm sure it is. Shillatime is hopefully
the helpsite many needed, and I am glad to have helped many with keeping the various pages up-to-date.
I will not always have as much time as I do right now, but for the next 6 years, I will have alot of free time,
overall. Sure, there will be periods with exams, but I'll live through them. Right now I am hoping that
Shilla will slowly work towards it's completion, with as the last desire the Warlock as the final quest.
Shilla is one of those few RPG's with a in-depth story, although that hasn't always been that way. I am playing
mostly because of a filler of time, I know others have their own ways of filling in time, but I vary from things,
with alot of shilla mixed-in, of course ;)
It always hurts to see friends leave shilla, and the longer you stick around, the more you will see it happen. Good
players come, good players leave. I think resets are major community killers, because often people are discouraged
by resets, and wonder what it's all for when it will be wiped out at some time anyway. But that is about the same
question as to why we live. To have fun in your life. To make the best out of it. You don't know when what happens,
and in shilla, you don't really know either. Have fun, like it says on the frontpage. Doesn't matter how you are
having fun, as long as you try it's all good. Shilla is fun, and as long as I'm having fun while playing it, I will
keep doing so. =)

Kalfir The Elf, or Kal as those who knows him call him, is a dark mage. Don't take this wrong now.
Just coz he's a darg mage doesn't mean he's evil. Kal is actually a darn nice guy (if he can say so himself) once you
have got to know him, and that's not too hard. Show respect and you'll get respect back.
The reason he choose black magic is simple, he finds it very usefull and interesting.
Kal also is good with the bow, even tho he hardly ever uses one (why would he?).
As a kid Kal used to follow his dad and his friends around the world on their missions. Therefor the only friends
he had as a kid was one other kid (who unfortunately died at the young age of 33). After the death the group was
never the same again and the next year the was no group. Many turned back to their homes to settle down. Kal and
his dad continued on their own and after 7 more years Kal's dad had settled down too with a human woman he met. This
wasn't what Kal wanted, so he continued on his own. He traveled very much, always seeking knowlegde, power and
adventure. It's probably on one of his many adventures you have met him. Some people sometimes joins him in his
quests and sometimes he joins otherto explore new worlds. You never know where you might find him. He can be where
you least expect. At the moment he can be found in the realms of
Shilla and Stratholm/Shadar.
The man behind Kalfir is a student; Andreas is 23 years old and studies computer science.
He lives in Växjö, Sweden and is engaged with his g/f who he lives with. She doesn't play games like
Shilla and Stratholm, so you won't meet her (unless in RL... but so far only 1 other player have). She accepts
the playing, but it sometime gets a lil too much, hehe (as most of you know... not like I'm alone here).
The whole thing started back in 1998 (I think) when Shilla 2 just had open. Kalfir wasn't the named used back then
and it didn't last very long. Instead he quit and didn't play any games untill 2000 (I think again), but this time
he was back to stay and now used his real name, Kalfir.
Andreas used to go under the name Mephisto (Not in Shilla when he first stated tho), but when creating a new
caracter in shilla the second time he wasn't allowed (already used), so he had to come up with something and
Kalfir just poped up and that's the origin of that name.
