-There will be delays in replies. Largely due to working overtime, voluntary obligations; other RPs and online-things may compete for my attention.
'Bout me: Started RPing (badly) back in '05, mostly doing nation-RPs with an emphasis on technology and strategy, later edging out to character-espionage and military-tactics before doing "less serious" character roleplays that were outside of the 2005-2008 continuity.
That's when I went to Dead-Frontier, and found the RP community there, joined a clan, did some pretty good roleplays and pretty much loosened-up my online-personality. When the clan-leader decided to move her RPs here, most of the clan followed.
Took a course in technical-writing back in '08, so now I may sometimes use the semicolon correctly.
In 2010 I dusted off the old nation-RP continuity I had, doing a few hetelia-esque RP-shenanigans there..
RP-Habbits: I tend to geek-out on little technical-details, and sometimes infer how those details would impact the background of the roleplay. Great for world-building, not so great when you had a perfectly good plotline and I just MacGyver it off the rails (though I usually er to the side of amusement, sometimes it creates very grim side-stories).
Here we go with an elf that works with iron for a living... which she is allergic to... and speaks in a quaint irish/scottish/cockney-something accent.
Kinda lazily recycling a character nearly verbatim (so the format doesn't quite match), but for the change in scenery.
Given Name: Sashin Ylladi Chosen Name: Tiffany Aliases: ‘Tiff’ Titles: Lady of Iron Age: 451 Race: Night elf Marital Status: Single
Outward Demeanor: Cras, blunt, and forward. Touch anything in her shop that’s liable to get you killed and she’ll let you know. Notable Personality Traits: Passionate | Likes working with things that could kill her | Prideful | Adrenalin-junkie Likes: Making a sale | Saunas and hot-springs | People who speak their mind | Repeat customers Dislikes: Customers that are “just browsing” | Mud and ash | Haggling prices | People dying in her shop | Digging
Accent/Dialect: Picked up several Drawven mannerisms in her travels, accent included. Decent singing voice, tho. Laughter: Deep, hearty, and throaty Hair Color & Style: Black, often tied-back or covered Eye Color & Shape: Fiery amber ovals with a flicker of red when visibly angered Face: Sharply pointed ears that go with her chin, but a stubby little nose Physical Build: Stocky, but buffed and polished to perfection Skin Complexion & Color: Soot and shop-grime covered purple… sometimes mistaken for a pitch-black drow. Height: 5’ 9” Weight: 135 lbs Scent/Perfume: Smells of copper, iron, fire, and slow-roasted mahogany.
Racial Abilities & Traits: Ages gracefully (ish), skin tends to glow rather than blushing
Strengths: Her heightened vision helps with heat-treating and she can hear the different metallurgical properties of metals when struck by a hammer.
Weaknesses: Although she works with iron… it’s still not good for her to walk around covered in metal-filings. Although she’s inherently strong, prolonged working-hours often leave her feeling utterly spent and exhausted.
Takes offense to being mistaken for a drow. Not used to being looked down upon, and would rather people who did take their presence and business elsewhere.
Whenever she isn’t busy blacksmithing, or needs to make herself ‘socially presentable’ she tends to take a dip in the local wharf to scrub the soot off since her workshed doesn’t have a shower.
Tiff actually does have money, she just constantly re-invests it in tools and materials rather than upping her social-status directly. Her total wares on display are actually expensive enough to bankrupt a small country…. In addition to probably killing anyone who so much as leans against them.
Also, is actually a half-elf… kinda why she left in the first place to study. Problem is a person like herself doesn’t fit in with dwarves….
Raised in the dark, the safety of our mountain home Skin made of iron, steel in our bones...
Note: I urge you not to find and count all the hidden memes... there's a lot of them.
