Whaaaat you still play?

Your Nostromo character hasn't logged on once since I've been playing, 
what are your other names?

Add me regardless, Ceolee and Cleolee (Champion and Guardian, I think 
I'll keep the Champ mostly).

This is the first MMO I've ever played where I haven't been able to use 
my two normal handles, Ceo and Ceowulf :(
