Stepping up to the Plate

I am powerful... I am level 53.
I am immortal... I am the greatest of my kind.
I can do anything... I can gain 4-5% a day.
I am cursed... I am a prince.
I am the Darkness… I am FieldsOfLove.

FieldsOfLove level 53 interview

As you may or may not know, the first level 50 prince on Depardieu, FieldsOflove has reached level 53, making him the highest level prince on the Depardieu server. He says that 53 is really just a pit stop on his road to level 55 or perhaps even level 60. He does however enjoy his newfound strength on his con prince.
Fields levels largely in Ivory Tower, with occasional jaunts to Fire Valley or Forgotten Island. When asked why he chose to level a prince over a knight, he said that he enjoyed the idea of being a prince. He simply liked the class best, although he did admit to being intrigued by the power of a high level dark elf.

Many people might agree that the prince is one of the hardest classes to level. Fields says that the lack of items, decent magic, and slow walking factor of the prince make it undesirable for many people. Even though he enjoys the challenge of leveling his prince he does wish that NC would give them sort of walk acceleration speed, like the Dark Elf has, because he’s tired of having to morph into Baphomet just to keep up with his friends.
When asked about other princes on the server he told us, “Kirkanos (a level 52 prince) is one of my best and oldest friends. He helped me out a great deal when I came back.” He also had these words about Magnetik, the Player of the Year candidate for Depardieu, “He’s a great guy ^^ I like to try and keep him motivated when leveling. For him being a char prince he is nuts, but he has it harder then me.”

Hopefully we can all learn from people like FieldsOfLove, learn to chase our dreams no matter how far away they may seem. Personally I feel I've learned a lot from FieldsOfLove. I’ve learned that goodbyes will always hurt, pictures never replace having been there, memories good or bad will always bring tears, and words can never replace feelings.
