Biography

Albini is a retired avatar artist known on the forums as BootlegPatch.

Albini washed ashore on Viridian back in 2005 as a wandering greenie. After remaining dormant for a few years she returned in 2007, caught up again in the excitement of the game. In her free time, Albini enjoys participating in art-related forum events (her favorite being the Seasonal Portrait Backgrounds), creating outfits on Quid Pro Clothes, and watercolor painting. Amongst friends she has been called anything from Al to Beanie. She currently resides in her cozy cottage on Kirin.
