The manner in which this foreign, well, not just foreign, downright strange, woman observed him was a bit disconcerting, but Christopher ignored the feeling in favor of more rational thought. Nodding, the prince followed this enigma of a dragon, though they were probably all this enigmatic, into what was to be his new bedchamber. It was a rather modest room, in both size and furnishing, though not uncomfortable. It was perhaps more humble than the prince was accustomed to, but he had always found the palace rooms more spacious than necessary in any case. Once the lights were lit, though they were underground, the room was oddly pleasant, with a simple wooden table, several chairs, shelves, and a small, but cozy-looking, bed covered in a quilt. While certainly not as grandiose as the rest of the abode, the room looked quite comfortable.
Watching with fascination as his dragon captor and companion lit the lamps and fire, Christopher could not help but wonder what chemical reaction caused the spontaneous combustion. He would have to add that to his list of questions to ask when they were finished with the tour. Warily he sat down, noting her words as he had noted all of the previous ones, still rather cautious regarding the idea of being watched.
“Very well then,” the young scholar answered, his tone mostly calm, though ever so slightly clipped and cold with defensiveness. Making clear eye contact, he answered, “My name is Prince Christopher Vorlais, more simply, just Christopher. I have many more questions for you, however. I appreciate the hospitality and your change of tone, but what makes you think that you have the right to bring me here in the first place? Who are you and why on Earth would you expect me to do your chores for you when you have simply pulled me out of my window with no warning whatsoever?! Additionally, where in Therganal’s name are we?” he asked, exasperation becoming increasingly present in his tone. Those were only the beginning of his numerous list of questions, but they were the most pertinent, and he decided that it would be best to show some politeness himself by not overloading this woman down with all of them at once.

RP Business Card: Spoiler Writing Level:
I am quite literate, though the flowery language that Advanced roleplays seem to require is a skill that I am working to improve. Depending on the story and my partner, I write anywhere from Casual to a High End Casual/Advanced level. It really depends on the needs of the story and what I am given to work with. Preferred Genres:
Fantasy This is a very enjoyable genre for me. I find it very flexible. I can pretty much do anything in this, but I like deep settings and well developed cultures and characters the most.
Science Fiction This is also a fun genre, with a lot of potential. I will do either a story with humanity existing at some point in the future, or an entirely different, more technologically advanced world. I am not against starting with ideas from other sources, but in execution, we need to make it somewhat original.
Other: I will consider other genres, but I prefer some exciting and extraordinary elements. I get enough of real life in well, real life. But, if it is a plot that I find interesting, I will try most anything. Also, I love psychological conflict, whether intra- or interpersonal. Activity: I cannot guarantee any certain speed due to a crazy school schedule. Due to demands of school and quality, expect delays of up to two weeks, and I will let you know if it will be longer. Also, if possible, I would appreciate a similar courtesy and level of activity. Preferred Type of Play: I prefer 1 on 1 roleplays simply because you are only counting on one other person to be active. However, if I find the story interesting, and the other people involved are known to be active, I would not turn down a high end casual or advanced small group roleplay. Random: I edit posts very often, to correct errors and/or improve the wording, and use a lot of allusions if the story permits. Overall, I like to have depth and real conflict in my stories, especially social, cultural, and philosophical issues, not some random cheesy junk. Also, I have zero problems with cliche's if we add creativity and depth.
