Greatings fellow travlers and knights errant. I am Diana O'Connell, knight and quester, please alow me to tell you more of myself as we rest around the fire.

I have joined gaia way back in early 2004, and enjoyed this site for several years. My most common posts are un severl guilds and a couple of threads. I'm an older memeber, 28 now, which I guess makes me an old fart. I love reading, rping, drawing and watching sci fi and anime.

True I know this is a common quest, and a hard one, but I have decided to go for it anyway, simply because of the challenge.

For those who are wondering why I chose such an odd name for my quest,
it comes from a novel titled Don Quixote de la Mancha. Like the title character I strive to obtain what might very well be the un obtainable, but like Don Quixote I will continue on, despite what others might say.

Quest status:

arrow 3,400k in pure
arrow horns of the demon 4,000k
arrow nitemare scarfX2 16000k
arrow jacked up shirt 4,600k
arrow kitsune mask 2000k

wahmbulance 30 million offer

Rules: Please no page streaching bumps, those drive me nuts.
No: flaming, play well with others.
Neet speek confuses me, please don't use it.

Official Doctor who:Inside the TardisRandom, or mabey not so random information:

Impossible dream, from the Man Of La Mancha (Musical about Don Quixote)

Lyrics by Joe Darion

To dream ... the impossible dream ...
To fight ... the unbeatable foe ...
To bear ... with unbearable sorrow ...
To run ... where the brave dare not go ...
To right ... the unrightable wrong ...
To love ... pure and chaste from afar ...
To try ... when your arms are too weary ...
To reach ... the unreachable star ...

This is my quest, to follow that star ...
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far ...
To fight for the right, without question or pause ...
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause ...

And I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm,
when I'm laid to my rest ...
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach ... the unreachable star ...

Page with information about Quixote, as well as the windmill moment.

My freind's thread.
