[ Matojo is a level 78 Warrior on Thorium Brotherhood and has been tanking since he started at level 62. I run randoms on him on occasion, and I've never received so many compliments on a single character - apparently, he really is good. ICly, he's a heavily-scarred, heavy-drinking, womanizing bastard that is currently deeply involved with a Darkspear girl and is expecting a baby. He's toned down a bit over the years, but his mischievous nature continues to ring true no matter what he's doing or where he is.

I love this character. ]
