Killing her off could also be another way to go, as it would impact each character differently and might make for interesting character development as each character copes with it in their own way..
Haha. Okay!
So, FrozenEcstasy, going to post soon? *friendly nudge* Three days since last IC post.
We should keep it going with the people we got. There is at least four of us right? We should keep the plot going while we wait for responses via the interest check.
Interesting day, indeed. There was quite an assorted crowd of individuals here, and luckily he was not the only one in formal attire. It means he didn't stand out so much and not standing out right now seemed good.

A rather overly excited guy approached him and introduced himself. Dwyer almost seemed happy he was here.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Miles."

After pausing for a moment trying to figure out which question to ask, Dwyer was gone.

With Dwyer off to the next person I didn't feel like introducing myself to a bunch of people I didn't know. It wasn't that I was bad at introducing myself or getting to know people, it was just I didn't really have it in me today.

A life of solitude appealed to me at the moment. There was a sizeable rock out of everyone's way. Seemed like as good of a spot as any to rest my legs. I strolled over there avoiding the group. For the moment, I will just sit and observe.

One of the group took off in the woods apparently to investigate the smoke he could make out over the trees. He went alone. Confident of himself it seemed. I don't necessarily think going off by himself in the woods was the best idea.

Dwyer was having a conversation with another fellow that seemed to be new, and the topic took my attention.

Two years, that was a long time. So I might not be getting out of here anytime soon after all. Well, it seems like I should be a bit more proactive after all.

I made my way to Dwyer.

"Hi again. Look, I am a bit new here but I this place seems a little less the safe. Is there anywhere a bit less open where we could all go? I don't really feel like waiting for one of those creatures to come back and I could make this place from a couple of miles out."
I'll post tonight.
Miles

What has it been now? Four, maybe five days. I haven't really been keeping track. How did I get here? Where is "here"? These are all questions I have no answers to, and for the moment, I didn't really want any. This world served as a strange distraction from reality. A reality that I no longer had any desire to be a part of.

I let one of my legs dangle off the tree branch I found myself sitting on, letting it sway back and forth aimlessly while my eyes began to reevaluate my surroundings. This world was so foreign that you could almost find it aesthetic, as long as you had a moment to actually observe it. It was sunrise and sunset that I liked the most. The yellow-green sun colored the sky an array of colors at dawn and dusk that you just didn't see back home.

The trees, besides allowing for the best view, seemed to be safer then the ground. Not many creatures here seemed to climb. Creatures. Monsters. Animals. I haven't quite made up my mind what to call them. Last night, a wolf like creature passed below the tree I had climbed for the night. It had all the same features as your usual wolf, as far as I knew, except it was huge. Like nightmare huge. Luckily, it had passed without noticing me. The more creatures I saw the more I felt more like prey then predator.

Besides the creatures, the only other thing I missed was dreaming. For whatever reason, sleep didn't exist here. I closed my eyes but it just refused to come to me. Without sleep I couldn't dream and my dreams were the only place I could see her now. Soon, I might forget what she looks like. Her hair. Her eyes. Her beautiful smile. God, I need to take my mind off of this.

Off in the distance, I could make out a clearing, but that wasn't what caught my attention. There was a group of, well, he wasn't really sure what was in that clearing. They seemed to be human. Maybe, it was more of those deer-people he had seen when he first got here, or maybe there where others like him. Whatever they were it was worth taking a closer look.

I examined the tree I found myself in looking for good footing and began my climb down. Damn these dress shoes. Five minutes later, after taking each step slowly, I jumped the final gap and began my walk in the direction of the clearing. It took me about twenty minutes to get there. I slowed my pace, not wanting to get myself in a dangerous situation. My black blazer I had flung over my shoulder I put back on now. It might help me blend in with the darker surroundings rather than my white shirt.

Reaching the edge of the tree line, I surveyed the scene. Other people. Interesting. Part of him wanted to just disappear back in the woods. He wasn't really great to be around other people, but considering the fact that he had no idea where he was and these people might know something.

There were nine of them. All of them seemed to be around his age, give or take a few years. The whole group was faced away from him. He began a steady slow stride toward the group. Didn't want to startle anyone. Today is turning out to be interesting.
Great. Thanks.
Hello all. I am jumping in this a bit late, but here's my character sheet.

Name:

"Miles Avery"

Age:

I pause remembering a time before this place. Does time even exist here? It doesn't matter, he lost track. Has it been days? ..weeks? ..longer? Maybe he should just answer the question.

"... just turned nineteen."

Gender:

I sigh to myself. I mean, what kind of question is that? Whatever.

"I'm a guy."

Sexuality:

That question got a well deserved double take. What? Interested?

"It's really not your business. I mean, I don't even know you."

Besides, I already found someone. Then I lost her. I can't think about this.

Hair Color:

I glance upward as if I need to double check my own hair color.

".. blonde."

What is this a census? Is my examiner blind as well as dumb. God, I shouldn't think like that. It's not like it's their fault I'm in this situation. At least I keep my thoughts to myself.

Eye Color:

"Blue. I guess. People have their own opinion."

I paused. She always said they were green.

"Some people have made an argument for green."

Is that who she is now, some people?

"You tell me. I mean.. what does it matter anyway."

General Appearance:

Blind, it is. Well, it's not their fault. They probably have had a rough enough go of it without me adding my sarcastic, critical comments to the mix. Anyways, this is interesting. I don't think I have ever needed to describe myself.

"Pretty much average build. I mean, I got some muscle on me but nothing to write home about. I guess I'm like six foot. Something like that. Eh, like I said blonde hair. It's long.
Not like shoulder length or anything but it's pretty much a mess and a pain to deal with."

I guess I should describe what I'm wearing.

"This isn't really my usual sort of attire, but, well, I had somewhere to be before I ended up here."

Yeah, somewhere to be. Maybe it was good I got pulled into where ever this was. It's not like I was invited anyway, considering. Her parents probably would have had me arrested.

In his reflection he had paused making way for a bit of an awkward silenced.

"Sorry. Uh, anyways currently I got on some nice dress shoes, with dress pants, black button-up shirt, sleeves rolled tactlessly up, and a black skinny tie. The geneses of class over here."

He almost chuckled to himself. Almost.

"Like, I said not my usually attire. It's unfortunate really. These dress shoes offer no traction and I have been trying not to fall on my ass since I got here. Plus, my feet are killing me."

Not to mentioned the fact that these weren't cheap and now the pants were all marked up from traveling through this terrain. Yup, these pants were going to the nearest trash can if he ever got out of here.

I sighed and loosened my tie a bit so I could unbutton the top bottom of my dress shirt. Pretty much, I'm wearing a penguin outfit equipped with its own noose. A penguin dressed for a funereal.

Personality:

Now, he did chuckle softly to himself.

"Can't you tell? I'm a carefree socialite. They make sure to invite me to all the parties."

Once, that was the case. I could barely remember the days when I was happy, social able, and carefree. All that's left is this sarcastic, bitter, and withdrawn shell of who I once was.

Maybe, just maybe, If I never met her. No, that's not it. He was so much more when he was with her. It was the fact she was taken away that did this to him. Bastards.

History:

"Like I said, I don't even know you."

I can't even face my history myself, mate. Fat chance I am going to tell you anything about it.

Are you already in the group, or will you meet up with them?

Miles will meet up with the group. He's been in wonderland (so to speak) for five days now.
In 'Ello 11 yrs ago Forum: Introduce Yourself
Alright then. As a bit of a warning, I never know how to start these types of things so don't judge, eh?

Writing. I love writing.

I started writing by role playing on a forum similar to this several years ago. It was through that and an exceptional Creative Writing teacher I had in middle school that helped me to grow as an amateur author and fall in love with the field. Unfortunately, through a combination of real life events and the site I was part of closing I took a rather extended hiatus. Now, I am looking to get back into it and this seems like a great place to do so.

With that, I look forward to getting to know you all, and, of course, collaborating on some great stories together.
