I've been on this site for two years and I haven't written a bio, but I figured it's better late than never :P
I like to play a variety of different characters, but most tend to be humans in a modern setting. I feel like I tend to relate better if they're human, and I like roleplay plots that center more around the characters themselves and character development, versus magic or some "quest" going on.
My favorite genres are modern, slice of life, horror, and a good helping of romance on the side. However, I dislike 1x1 roleplays and like for romance to be a casual side plot rather than the center of the roleplay.
I enjoy characters with unusual personalities, but are fairly normal and well adjusted. They don't need pages of backstory or personality, they just need to sound believable to me.
I started roleplaying online about 7 years ago, and I was doing tabletop roleplaying a few years before that. I still actively participate in table top games, and my interest in roleplaying online waxes and wanes.
I like to write a lot, but I find the standards in a lot of advanced roleplaying sections to be rather intimidating, so I stick to casual or free roleplays.
I (like many other people on this site), think wayy too much about their characters and their backstories. I really hope to animate one day or get my characters out to the world in a more professional way, but for now I enjoy roleplaying them and seeing how they change and develop.
@Metamore I think it's a nice idea. There are several who haven't posted yet and perhaps this will be a helpful starting point for them. I sense that it may also be a more logical introduction into the roleplay for some, not just necessarily my character but that there are others who could also benefit from that. Hopefully I am correct in that assumption that this might help kickstart the roleplay.
Fillan navigated through the crowded hallways of the Academy. When he first set foot outside this school, he was taken away by it's sheer size and sweeping slate towers. He could imagine the timeless kings and queens from childhood fairy tales strolling down these volumnious halls with multicolored stained glass panes and chisled sculptures. Now, there were only groups of freshman idly chatting as they wandered through the halls. He found the pairing wonderfully curious and strange, but somehow fitting; a building once used to defend a lord's fiefdom was now being repurposed to defend once more.
Pressing himself up against the cold stone wall, Fillan slid past a clamouring crowd of students. Past the group of idly chatting teenagers, he could spy up ahead two large wooden doors. Quickly, he glanced around before advancing towards the doors. There was a whoosh of cold, if slightly mildewy air upon entering the room. It was as though a television had been put on mute. The atmosphere within the large room was wholly different and starkly contrasted to that of the hallways outside. Cautiously, he took a seat at one of the wooden tables towards the back of the room. An older woman with grey hair stood at the front of the class and began to lecture. Fillan found this woman to be very unsettling. He squinted the first time to try to make sure but now he was certain, this woman indeed had golden eyes. It made her overall look very intense to him and he could no longer focus on what she was reiterating to the class. Besides the headmistress, he could spot several other students also in the room, including two girls who sounded like they were having a very animated discussion with each other.
Giving up on trying to pay any attention to what was going on at this point, Fillan opened up his bag, and shuffled through it for a second before pulling out a few math packets and a pencil. He shifted slightly in his chair, trying to get comfortable before starting to work on the math problems laid out in front of him.
Proficiency/Abilities: He can control technology, such as turning power on and off, coding and/or encrypting different machines and devices, and hacking into systems.
Identification: Fillan's tall with a lanky build, standing around 5'8. He has medium length wavy dark brown hair that looks like it hasn't seen a brush in ages. It's parted in the middle and worn down with no sort of styling to it. He has large elliptical teal eyes and pale skin with small dark brown eyebrows. He has a narrow chest and long legs. Very skinny, he weighs around 115 lbs. Not physically fit in the slightest, but has a quick mind. He keeps his outfit simple; a white button down longsleeve shirt with a pastel green tie, black slacks and black leather dress shoes. He also wears large, thick framed olive glasses.
Personality: Fillan's timid and soft spoken, preferring to avoid conflict if at all possible. He usually keeps an open mind about others but is harsh and criticizing of himself. He's rather indecisive and tends to lack very good judgment or insight into other's personas. He has a turbulent underbelly full of emotion and insecurities, but typically internalizes it all and keeps most opinions to himself during group conversations. His mind has a tendancy to wander, especially during dull moments and he daydreams frequently, which can lead him to wandering about before realizing he's lost his way and has to try to retrace his steps. He enjoys doing math and does it almost always whenever he has spare time. Other hobbies of his include collecting different strands of ribbon and buttons, which he likes to hang in his room. Despite his naturally passive state, he can be surprisingly selfish at times and even sassy in the right mood. He tends to put his ambitions and goals over his physical and mental health, neglecting a lot of necessities. Fillan's never been very forthcoming with important information, and is individualistic in the way he goes about doing things, preferably doing it by himself without telling anyone and he's rather adamant about that.
Backstory: Fillan's switched households since he was 5 years old. He was put into foster care due to financial hardships and that his parents weren't prepared to have a child. He feels out of place most of the time, and is alienated from society as a whole. Since he was placed in foster care, he had trouble making friends due to sporadic moving that took place throughout his school years. Around the middle of six grade, he gave up entirely on socializing and instead dedicated himself to academics; as up until that point, his grades were nothing to be proud of. He discovered a new passion for learning, specifically math as he tried his best to catch up on his studies. When he moved schools at the end of seventh grade, he enrolled to a local boarding school. At that school, he was dormed with another student named Kludd. With a lot of persistence (mostly on Kludd's part) they became good friends and often shared a large portion of their time together. When they graduated, Fillan caught word about a mysterious school several miles north of where they lived that was only known as; "The Academy" Curious, he decided that's where he wanted to go for highschool.
Other: He really, really likes math and is often doing math packets.
Welcome to my profile page
You found it
I guess it really isn't that hard though either.
I've been on this site for two years and I haven't written a bio, but I figured it's better late than never :P
I like to play a variety of different characters, but most tend to be humans in a modern setting. I feel like I tend to relate better if they're human, and I like roleplay plots that center more around the characters themselves and character development, versus magic or some "quest" going on.
My favorite genres are modern, slice of life, horror, and a good helping of romance on the side. However, I dislike 1x1 roleplays and like for romance to be a casual side plot rather than the center of the roleplay.
I enjoy characters with unusual personalities, but are fairly normal and well adjusted. They don't need pages of backstory or personality, they just need to sound believable to me.
I started roleplaying online about 7 years ago, and I was doing tabletop roleplaying a few years before that. I still actively participate in table top games, and my interest in roleplaying online waxes and wanes.
I like to write a lot, but I find the standards in a lot of advanced roleplaying sections to be rather intimidating, so I stick to casual or free roleplays.
I (like many other people on this site), think wayy too much about their characters and their backstories. I really hope to animate one day or get my characters out to the world in a more professional way, but for now I enjoy roleplaying them and seeing how they change and develop.
Thanks for reading :)
