When you have to disable a new 'advanced' search to get proper search results and learn that 'advanced' means 'AI'. Let's rename it artificial superficiality, short 'AS'. Not to be confused with...

I'm slightly proud of myself having overcome my hate for indoor spiders a bit over the years. In my youth I often eliminated them, now I carry them outside in a jar. Spiders here are harmless though.

Believe me, if they could, the entirity of Southern Germany would send you all the rain they had over the last couple of days. I'm just not sure you'd actually want the widespread destruction.

Finally managed to catch the mouse. Our cat must consider me the most incompetent person of all times given how she watched instead of helping. She dragged the problem in though!

Bio


Welcome to my profile page!


Who the hell is this person behind those many miles of fiber optics and copper cable ?

  • I'm a 34 year old guy.
  • ... who's working as a software developer
  • ... and enjoys roleplaying as a casual hobby to distract himself from ongoing stress


And into which hell will I descend with you participating in one of my roleplays?

  • I'm a fantasy addict: medieval high and low!
  • I'd consider myself to be a low casual roleplayer, 3 paragraphs per post on average.
  • My schedule varies. It might happen that I won't be able to post at all for a week, but then again it might happen that I'll reach a sweet spot inside which I can go on a posting rampage. I'd say one can expect 1-2 posts a week from me, depending on the lengths involved.
  • English is not my native language, but so far I've not encountered anyone who had had trouble with me over that :)


Want to RP with me ? Shoot me a PM, but don't shoot me!



Thanks for visiting!

There's no honor among hunters, it seems. Everyone is either trying to kill the infected one or wants him dead! The doctor will remember that the next time ya'll get an infection.


Honor ? Is this something edible ?
Two bodyguards ? So semi-competence times semi-competence returns quarter-competence. You're screwed. @13org
After a bit of google-ing, I could see it. I never played Dragon Age 1/2 so far, planning to do it when I've time.
I'd be in for it @Bright_Ops, though my 'hunter' probably needs a bit of convincing first.
An-Hasst couldn't help but feel considerably appalled when he spotted the group of elves doing what they just did. Had they just disturbed an execution ? The woman looted pretty, even in her current state. However... she turned out to be Andred. Given that the Skayleigh were at a more or less constant war with the Andred nation, it was a fact bound to keep his compassion at bay.

Was this the human Verya was referring to ? Most likely. She was the one guiding them, so she had everything in her hands necessary to increase the otherwise extremely slim odds of running into an elven escort with a human prisoner in the midst of the southern wilderness. The giant Skayleigh positioned himself in the midst of the gathering, able to address the group of wood elves and Verya at the same time.

"If I might put this rant into more efficient words while adding something to it... First: Is this the human person you were talking about ? Second: If the answer to question number one is yes, why are you" - he was pointing at the wood elves by now - "treating your living information carrier in such a horrid manner ? You could loose her, you know that ? Or is it the common method here to roam around until accidentally encountering a group of adventures which is generous enouch to patch up your prisoners again ? Third: What makes you believe that she - or whatever human we're talking about - actually has something to do with this dragon ? And, the fourth and most important question, what do we have to do with this ? Are we supposed to slay this dragon or just the monsters it's driving out of their hideouts ? Or both and maybe take the woman with us for the most general cleanup ?`"

An-Hasst's tone didn't lack a certain bit of sarcasm when he talked about the dragon. He wasn't seriously estimating their party to be strong enough to survive an encounter with such a beast. Luckily Alice and Ursaren were already taking care of the woman - one didn't put one's head too far above the parapet by stating that the Skayleigh wasn't exactly the most sensitive pal when it came to first aid.

"Oh and you could at least withdraw your bows. It doesn't do them any good to be under tension when it's not necessary. She certainly won't run away at this point."

Now I can completely restart writing my post.
If I'm honest I'm not sure if I want to/should continue my participation in this RP :/
<Snipped quote by Darkraven>

It's hard to make a character wholley unlike oneself (at least for me) that's still satisfying to play. So yeah, we probably have a lot in common, which means if we ever found ourselves in the same party we'd probably have to death battle to see who stays (that's how it works, right?)


I am trying to imagine a confrontation between myself and my Skayleigh. However I'm neither way above 7' nor is my life revolving around anger management. Also I don't have pointy ears, but even if I had I could still claim to be a Vulcan and greet everyone with 'Live long and prosper.'. Most importantly however my name isn't as prone to name-mangling as An-Hasst's.

In other words: I'd loose the death battle even before the first ad break.

Another problem: I'm currently encountering a writer's block.
Would love to learn, but sadly I'm still just an enthusiast on different languages. English is the only "foreign" language I know fluently... for now XD


I'm a native German, I've only been struggling with English and Latin.

Btw. I hope my post was okay @everyone.

A second order came, being yelled across and superposed by the carnage in front of him. Jared had no idea if the information contained in it was anywhere near the truth, but in any case the worst thing that could happen is that one gnome would be slain prior to some others.

But: How to get there ? The problem weren't the remaining... eight ?... gnomes or whatever they were surrouding the key figure in the center, but the fact that they had become engulfed by flames once again. Jared knew that large parts of his body were clad in strange metal, he had also learned enough about the properties of his father's armor to expect that it wouldn't incinerate like a woolen cloth drenched in oil, but still: Going in there ? That was no option. The one throwing these fiery devices probably wasn't aware that, while causing a lot of effect himself, he also forced others to disengage and not longer to contribute to the combined effort.

The not-yet-hunter didn't see any other option but to stand back and wait until the worst of the fire had burned out. The stench of burned flesh was one of the worst one could experience, and so far Jared had only experienced it when being too impatient with his cookery - and then only in the most extreme cases. He tried to concentrate on the smell of his face mask, to imagine that the combination of black fabric and leather would act as some sort of filter to keep out the smoke. Of course it was a somewhat unrealistic thought.

Then it was time. Only small flames were left and he'd be able to run over them quickly. Jared focused on the creature that previously had been called the 'linch pin' and charged forward. He ignored the gnomes around it (as far as one could assume them to be still alive) and tried one of tricks he had learned in his youth: Jump and put one's boot forward, targeting the victim's throat with the sole's edge.

Unfortunately though Jared partially bodged it, hitting the target area not with the heel but with a more forward part of the foot instead. The major part of his immense weight hit the mud and not the flesh, yet the remainder was sufficient to... let's say yank the linch pin's head out of proper alignment... and catapulting the still living creature out of the crowd. And so did Jared with himself, evacuating the area before the remaining gnomes or the transforming human could grab a hold of him or another flame bomb would detonate and incinerate him.
