Nah appears that he strives towards becoming a female spy.
Read his user status; it is: "Proletarier aller Länder, vereinigt euch!". That was the basis of my assumption.

Don't forget that she is a female taking a male name; that is unusual too (and frankly highly verboten, since male names aren't on the list of female names for obvious reasons).
I don't have your vast web of relations to pull from. I gotta do something.
Wast web; he only has three relatives playing.
Ah, you do speak German.
I don't know how I'd rate my proficiency (not fluent by any means, but good enough to think in it and translate a most of my conversations). I'm not really from Germany, that's just a joke between Audren and meWast web; he only has three relatives playing.
Ah, you do speak German.
Dass is aber merkwürdig. Wie kann man nicht Deutsch flüssig sprechen, wenn man auf Deutsch denken kann?
I am guessing you are American and chose German as your foreign language in primary school (or whenever you Americans get foreign languages). How is the quality of the classes there?
If it's anything like Canada, Americans wouldn't learn anything other than Spanish or French (as relevant) until high school, and most likely not even then. I don't even think my high school taught any foreign languages other than French or Spanish.
Actually, my dad started teaching me the basic stuff, and since then I've just been teaching myself as best as I can. I take French at my school, and have been for three years (going into my fourth). My teacher is amazing, but the quality of the class itself is horrible, and I haven't learned much. Anyway, my main issue with the fluency is speaking. I have never spoken to a native speaker, and I don't know how heavy my accent is or if I'll be able to tell what they're saying, and there's also the issue with "Die, der das, dem, den, des, dies, diese, dieser..." which I can almost never get right.
Actually, we just don't touch on foreign languages until high school, and even then it's very limited. We only have one French teacher, and 4 (I think) Spanish teachers The only other languages that are typically offered are German, Chinese, and maybe some European languages in bigger schools
He speaks it fluently?
You don't speak in German primarily during German class? Then you can judge your accent then. I at least was able to judge my accent both in English and German during classes. And I haven't spoken to many native English speakers and yet am aware of my accent. And I have spoken to even fewer native Germans (when abroad I tend to keep acting Scandinavian---i.e. don't really talk to people. For instance where you Americans might small talk when handing in a form we Scandinavians just go up to the counter and push in the form while saying absolutely nothing like were we machines) and still don't have a problem judging my accent (which is pretty non existent in German, but given that German and Danish sounds are really similar that is not that big a surprise).
Do you watch German TV/movies? If not then you should. Firstly you will get a good idea on how well you are able to understand natives, secondly you will be exposed to loads of dialects, and thirdly it will also help you with judging your accent. And it will make you much more fluent. I watched loads of German TV for years (including crap I would never ever watch if it hadn't been due to being part of improving my German) and it really helped. Heck just watch the news every day and you will get 30 minutes of training a day---and you will get a greater knowledge about what happens in German and German culture. Towards the end of high school (I had German classes starting in primary school and ending with graduation from high school) I knew the context of pretty much everything the teacher brought forth as current topics to discuss.
But that is easy; you just need to remember the sauce pan rule. You do know the sauce pan rule right?
And let me guess you aren't even required to have a foreign language?
