Biography
Not being an amazing puzzler, Dolphines has mostly focused on the social aspect of YPP since she started playing.
She’s a well known for docktarting on Alpha, being a "public" greeter, a great chatboocher and a major flirt [1]].
A portrait of her and her most notorious flirt can be seen hanging in the entryhall of Cnossos Palace - or in the "gentleman's" gallery.
Dolphines started out as a shopkeeping, owning a large weaving stall at Cnossos Island. Sailing hemp from Oyster Island quickly got boring and she turned to the Alpha Island dock to meet new people (besides her crewmates). There she ran into and got to know quite a few lovely personalities and she quickly became a "regular" in the chatcircles of Alpha. A few mates noticed her helping out the newer players and she was recommended and greetered in August of 2004. She has since often been seen at the docks, making people laugh by making a fool of herself and flirting with both male and female pirates.
This is also how she got titled "Flirt of Midnight".
Spending a lot of time on the forums, she's mostly seen being silly in Shore Leave, but will in the future be a lot more active in Events and Midnight Events, perhaps even Game Design.
