I made a priest because WoW doesn't have Bards!
I've always loved bards. Spellsinger series of books by Alan Dean Foster is one of my favorite sets of books ever. I used to own a music/guitar store and my wife is a music teacher/professional singer. My life just seems to have had a music theme.
I had a reputation as one of the best bards in Everquest. I won the first Best of the Best tournament they had where classes would pvp against others on the server in a tournament. Then the top one from each server would get transfered to their test server for a tournament against rivals from each server.
My second character was a Cleric and I really liked him and the healing so I decided to try a priest in WoW.
The more I play, the more I am liking hunters though. I played my daughter's hunter up to 60 and now have my own hunter that is 30 (since we have separate accounts now) and have been working on leveling him a lot this past week.
