Greetings, Guild.

My full nickname is VerminaeSupremacy, it’s slapped on all my contacts, and kudos to those who can read music references because I do these a lot.

I am a 27 year old autistic nerd, living in a certain country where freedom and tolerance is in extremely low supply, but can’t escape just yet. Need a place to process the chaos unfolding, and, since I always refined real issues through roleplaying, I hope I can team up with a bunch of sad escapists like myself, willing to play drama, thriller, sci-fi or dark fantasy with depressive themes to make reality pale in comparison.

English is my second language, I think I am decent enough and have pretty rich vocabulary to increase artistic value of my texts. I may mess up times at times or use some clunky phrasing, but, being perfectionist and open to critique, I‘ll gladly fix anything. Actually, I used to fix posts 20+ times if I waited for reply too long. Obsessive much? Ikr

I’ve been a play-by-post roleplayer for 18 years, for the last 2 years I also am active tabletop roleplayer and GM. I have several worlds I already developed for roleplay, a couple that are settings for the books, fandoms I played, fandoms I know and adore, but mostly I prefer original world for any new character and just use popular fiction and media as references. As is I’ll only play TES, and, maybe, Forgotten Realms with a grounded approach to narrative as opposed to ‘here’s 9th level spell, I fix everything and become a god’. I enjoy low fantasy like ASoIaF and The First Law by Abercrombie a lot. Also kudos for Sanderson’s fans. The Black Company old school fans, Malazan club, Witcher books and games people, Robin Hobb fans, hey-hey-hey to you too.
Other than big fantasy nerd I am all for suspense and fear. Be it The Great Unknown, secret technologies, or just a suspected maniac, mystical detective, sci-fi in space - it’s cool. Dark and Katla by Netflix come to mind, also The Expanse. Stargate (especially Andromeda).
I also like serious social, economical and political themes in games. Maybe even more than sci-fi, because you can bring sci-fi troupes into fantasy and spice it up with Lovecraftian horrors, but unless you play Bronze Age/Classical or medieval mindset and processes, even with emancipation of women (or, at least, precedents), it feels bland for me. Same goes for the exact same modern problems in futuristic settings.

PS:
I can go by any legitimate pronoun, nickname or character name, even reveal my true name and identity, if you care about this stuff. As a kid I dreamed of being a dragon and cross played since an early age, so, who am I to judge. Just don’t be stalking creep or preach the only valid point of view and I’m cool with you

I felt this deeply, as I'm almost in the same situation. Welcome and I hope you'll get at least some of that imaginative/virtual freedom here to get the hell away from the chaos at least mentally/emotionally through creative ways.

Welcome to the guild, @VerminS. I imagine you'll fit in pretty well on the guild with that repertoire of interests.

@Krasnaya That Skeletor is the missing meme I've been aware of.

Yo, VerminS I had some nerds acquire me in Middle School to displace themselves from the other dandies\viziers. We had the original Xbox system link for Halo, but what I'm getting to is we also played Runescape briefly. One of us 8 boys happened to be a boy named Sai (he was Indian - the jungly one, not the American Indians) whose RuneScape account was "Vermin S". So, welcome.

@Viper Sebastian what a coincidence ;D too bad I never owned any console, can’t even play on one.

@Kuro I was warned of the opposite with the words ‘they’re kinder than we are’ for exact same interests put into it. Maybe I write something unsettling to the people I want to play with, dunno.

Anyway, thank you guys

@VerminS Quite. RuneScape is a free MMORP for computers, it does allow members to pay for the whole game, though. And it's even got itself on phones now, and from what the newest information they've assembled on their website says: a tabletop game has begun.

It's your choice to play it. If you do attempt a play through you'll be placed in a online tutorial where other players are actually playing the tutorial beside you, you just can't use the keyboard to chat until the tutorial is finished. You make a name after you register with your email, then you make your character depictions. The character you make is human, and the NPC's can be not human but it's a fantasy for humans.
