Heya, Brent, welcome to EF!

I'm Emma, the admin; I'm from the UK, I'm 30 totally 18, and I love most things crafty, like crochet and digital painting and pixel art and skin design and stuff like that. I tend to dabble more than get good at anything, though. Like most of us here, I like video games too, though my PS3 is out of commission and my laptop is kind of dying, so I'm limited at the minute. I really want to play Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood and Revelations. I wasn't so keen on the first because Altair got on my nerves a bit lol but Ezio is cool. :3 And I loved the Prince of Persias (Sands of Time was the only PS2 game I ever actually finished, which probably says something about my gaming skills ). I can't wait for Mass Effect 3 to come way down in price, either.

For your character, Lorin, I can immediately suggest a thread for when he's approved: Massacre at Acheron. Naava's (played by Russ) Skotadi squadron are attacking the Apali fortress, and ex-Apali vampire Argyris (played by Pchan) is there in a case of wrong-place-wrong-time. My ex-Skotadi Aide, Dazadi, is there too, torn between rooting for her old faction and playing the neutral hero, so there's definitely room for inciting some chaos.

Ah, it's not just you. I think the board's set to automatically resize avatars to the 150x300 max, but it's an easy thing to fix. Go into the Profile > Avatar tab of your User Control Panel (here) and manually set the width and height. Looking at it, 150px (width) and 206px (height) should do it.

I'm looking forward to roleplaying with you and nattering with you in the cbox!

Hello Brent~

I'm Pchan, and also known by a whole host of other P/Pea-related names. (no the P didn't originally stand for pea, but it's a good explanation as any I guess)
ooo we're the same age! \o/ I'm studying biological sciences though ^^
I'm not much of a gamer actually, but I do know an unusually large amount of game-lore (I read game-wikis for pretty much everything; all of the FF series, Portal, ME, DA which I also played a little, and Skyrim which I still am in the middle of playing )

Wahahahaa more Anyeli! As Emma pointed out, I'm also the player of Argyris. I'm just lazy to switch accounts :3 (Faris is my main so if you wanna pm me about anything urgent you'd best catch me in the cbox or send the message to this account) Agryris...is an ex-Apali now-vampire knight who lives in Hesia. She'll be right in the area and available for threads, particularly if anyone wants to stir up trouble against Hesia. Or anything Hesia or Vampire-related, really. She also carries with her a residual dislike of most skotadi, so watch out! She might try to garotte Lorin if given the chance to do so without repercussions.

On a less aggressive note, Argyris is a freewheeling bounty-hunter who doesn't really care about who her employers are, so long as she gets paid and all the procedures are met. (She only takes official bounties and not personal udner the table assignments, but it can be under the name "Pollywiggles" for all she cares) She's up for killing anything that moves. And anything that doesn't too. So long as it bleeds, it's prey. Hesian citizens and the (generally) Apali are off-limits though. Still, she could come in handy if your character needs someone to 'off' an annoying pacifist skotadi or anyone who's messing up his plans. She's got good combat, doesn't die easily, but most importantly with mental shield 3 and her stubbornness won't give out information about her employers even while under all sorts of duress.

And it's time for me to go to bed and thus I shall end off with a

\o/ WELCOME TO ELYSIAN FIELDS~ \o/

Good evening fellow peasant! Or morning. Or...whatever. Does the avatar look thin? Or perhaps we're all just fat? Oh no, Tyrion is fearing he is a tad plump over at the other table. ;( Xanth has the serious reponse covered, but I had to. Oh yeah, and Emma is actually ten. Don't believe her lies. ;O

I'm...the nerd guy. Can't really find a more accurate description and proud of it. Love computers, books, loads of games, and not much "Oh well this is ____ so I think it's dumb!" before trying it. Huge into high fantasy settings and RPGs since the NES era. As for a job, I work 4 days a week usually at the hospital as an RN in the Recovery Room, but other times can either be found on MSN/the forums at least 1-2 full days a week (though I live in the US, so might be "nights" depending on where you live ;( )

Later I'll probably edit/expand on this, but I will be going out to eat with my grandma for now.

If you're ever in Alexandria, you might come across a certain judge who can let you get away with notorious deeds, but otherwise you'll probably be making trips to Hesia throughout the RP, in all likelihood. Hopefully once I've gotten a month or two of actually playing my current char I might be able to get more interaction between my second char and Lorin. We'll see. ;O

Oh yeah, and welcome to EF! Hope ya have lots of fun around here in the insane asylum!

Well now, you all sound delightful and lovely. I look forward to meeting more of the people here, as so far, ya'll are quite colorful and lovable.

I really want to play the Assassin's Creed series too. I never finished the first game, as I sold all of my Xbox stuff to fund a gaming computer, and I never got back around to picking up the game... even though they have it on PC. I want it very much, though! I am super excited for ME3 too, and can't wait until it comes down in price. I want to be re-united with Tali, my true love.

Goodness, I am swooning, forgive me.

P-chan, you seem rather awesome. I think our characters could be friends. Lorin might not like the Skotadi as well! Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer, perhaps? Plots, plots, plots. I am sure you will come in handy one day though. Loaded guns usually are. Just aim and point, yes?

No, I kid. I respect your character as a person, and not just a hired gun. Really!

Alain, do you have a favorite NES or SNES RPG? I love the Dragon Quest/Warriors series. It was my first RPG ever.

My earliest fav would probably be the same with Ultima: Quest of the Avatar right behind it from the NES. The SNES is where I really picked up gaming, I'd say, when I got my hands on games like Tales of Phantasia and Terranigma. Oh, and don't forget Secret of Mana! Man, do I miss that game. PS1 was where things got...almost too active for me, and it wasn't until the PS2 era I got into PC gaming, unfortunately. So I was a bit late in jumping into games like Lands of Lore. I think it'd be easier to count the RPGs I haven't played than the ones I have, at this point...

And no dissing the hired gun, indeed. My char's wife happens to be one, though more of a loose cannon. Maybe that is why she is away so often. That or poor Alain hasn't been serving up to par.

Oh, sorry, David, I forgot to put Clara's brakes on.

Brent - AC's worth playing if you ever get hold of it, but mostly I think because the OOC bits tie in to Ezio's stories. I played it for a bit on the PS2, got bored, and then picked it up to restart and finish it a few years later on the PS3 (I think? I don't remember now ). It didn't bug me as much the second time around, but I really like the wall-running adventures anyway.

Dang, but I think I need a new Hesian-based character. Or maybe I should just give Jericho some courage and move him back. He's such a wuss, he left town at the mere mention of the possibility of an old enemy being in town. Granted, the Calvin Morris he knew was an utter psycho, but I don't think he really enjoys Corantha and it seems like all the action's moved!
