-The second person to join the Paradox Server (preceded only by [[Chibi]]), I helped found the central station [[Mt. Paradox]].  [[Locke's Lab]], my humble home is based out of a natural cave, and great care has been taken to preserve its features.  I have two purposes in this realm: dungeon crawling and engineering.
+Born to a world of far fewer right angles, ManaLocke first came to this realm in the first year of our Paradox, shortly after [[Chibi]]. He has found it hard to stay away ever since.  From the start, he showed interest in caving and exploration, due largely to the source of his name.  While ManaLocke, in the modern parlance, conveys the meaning of "one interested in and barred from magic," it is also a phrase in the ancient Dwemer tongue, roughly translating to "finder of the abyss."  The evidence for this link presented itself to him early on, in the fifth yawning chasm that opened up beneath him in the span of a week.
+At the time of arrival, Manalocke was academically engaged.  Since then, he has completed his studies, earning a Ph.D. in Redstone, with post-doctoral work in kickass.  His thesis, //[[lockesEnchanter|On Enchanting Tables with Finely-Variable Strengths]]// is on display in his lab.

 ===== Dungeon Crawling =====
-Along with [[rigilg|Rigil Gearwerks]], I am one of the leading explorers on the server, and will frequently seek out new caves and underground formations to explore.  This is sometimes a service to others (e.g. pacifying a cave for the [[DTA]]), and frequently to get resources for my experiments.

   *The early-generation door-launcher minecart stations (seen as lost technology in Laumeier Park)
   *The [[auto-farm]] and [[Spitfire Farm]] at Locke's home
   *The front entrance to [[Mt. Paradox]]
   *The 3x3 stone door in [[Ft. Gears]]
-  *The archery test at [[Ft. Gears]]
+  *The new Arch Nemesis archery test at [[Ft. Gears]]
   *Most of the wiring for [[Mt. Paradox]]'s gate room
   *[[EndersGame|Ender's Game]] - the Endermen harvester
+  *The [[IcarusFarm|Icarus Feather Farm]]
   *The current instance of [[LockesEnchanter|Locke's Enchanting Table]]
+  *The [[Team Center]]
+  *The [[Hippodrome]] - Come put your horses to the test!
-Wiring services are available for those interested.
