Bio
Hello there,
I've been forum RPing for about 13 years; got started on lavendereyes.net, which was a Forgotten Realms/Drizzt Do'Urden fansite, before moving to the old roleplayerguild.com! I've also dabbled in RPing in a few MMO's like Champions Online, SWTOR, and WoW but forum adventures are definitely my preference. I like just about any kind of RP in high-casual and advanced, based on whatever mood I'm feeling (typically high-fantasy, sci-fi, and/or certain fandoms). I love writing and do think of RPing as a way to develop my character and scene writing skills, which basically means I'm always looking for realistic and fluid ways for my characters to learn, grow, and develop over the course of an adventure. I don't ship my characters but do occasionally allow them to fall into a relationship, if they are naturally guided in that direction.
You can take a look at some of my saved characters here, if it interests you.
I also have a deviantart page, though I hardly ever update it.
Thanks for reading! I'm always up for a good chat.

I did my best to make a Rose chibi thing.
Alrighty, that's basically what I gathered as well. Figured it would be alright for her to grab a nap in the early evening. :)
I think that drawing is great! Looks fierce...
Also made an intro post. Decided to put the backstory stuff in a hider so I wouldn't blind anyone with a wall if text. How long has everyone been trapped in the game, exactly? A few days?

Aeternus || Nexus
Rose awoke with a gasp, bright green eyes flying wide and searching desperately about the room. The images of the dream faded quickly, leaving her breathing deeply as small beads of sweat formed on her brow, matting strands of bright red hair to her fair skin. Damnit, I'm still here... How can this world be so real? She thought, not for the first time, as she looked down at her hands and the level of detail in which the game rendered them. It was truly a breakthrough in technology and the thought of how it was being used for such sadistic and twisted ends was enough to make her stomach turn. Sliding to the edge of the bed, pulled up the in-game clock to check the time and sighed in relief when she saw she hadn't slept through the whole day. She'd been out for only an hour and a half but the nap had been sorely needed after the emotions of the afternoon. With the initial announcement of Aeternus becoming their prison, panic had swept through the city as thousands of players struggled (and frequently outright refused) to accept what was happening; unsurprising considering how not one person saw it coming.
Well, not one besides the creator.
Bastard... She thought angrily. Rose had spent those initial hours trying to quell the panic, to form some sort of calm that would allow them all to face their predicament logically and look for some form of escape. When things finally began to settle, she found that there appeared to be no easy way out; they were trapped in this hell and would remain so until the creator saw fit to release them, or there was some sort of intervention from the real world. It had been to much to handle, that revelation, for even someone like Rose, and so she managed to find herself a room, one of the last ones available, and felt determined to try and escape through sleeping or at least whittle away the time until rescue arrived. Clearly her plan had failed and so she would have to start searching for another way.
It looked like rescue would not be so forthcoming.
"Better start by getting a better lay of the town..." Rose's alto voice muttered aloud as she pushed herself to her feet. Before receiving the letter she had found plenty of time to familiarize herself with the the game's systems so she had no trouble putting on her equipment with the game menus. The plate armor was quite extravagant in scheme, dull blood-red metal with black leather straps and gold trim, but was plain in style and clearly made for mobility and functionality; that suited her well as she had little interest in playing 'dress up' in a game that could claim her life. She slung the black traveler's cloak over her shoulders but left the hood down, sliding the gold-trimmed silk through her fingers and marveling at the feel of it. Last she put on the large sword, which appeared sheathed at her waist, and the even larger shield that came with a buckled strap across her chest so that it would hang on her back but still be within easy reach. The weapon was simple in design, a red-leather wrapped hand-and-a-half hilt with a pommel of blackened steel with a plain cross-guard, but the shield was rather magnificent to behold. It was roughly four feet tall, a tower-shield by all accounts, made from an incredibly lightweight metal Rose could not identify but that had the same color and texture as obsidian glass. The edges were outlined in a cap of dull gold which was styled like vines that twisted into the shield's center and formed a single blooming rose. Clearly it was made in a reference to the name she'd chosen on a whim, some sort of internal system that designed her equipment to fit her theme. She'd even noticed there was a faint scent of the flower that hung about her like an aura, though she could not place from where it originated. Thankfully, Victoria had always loved roses and so this sort of aesthetic appeal did not bother her in the slightest.
Finally prepared, she slipped out of the room and checked with the innkeeper to be sure it would be rented throughout the evening, giving her time to find the coin to keep paying for it.
Outside the inn, Rose quickly gathered that the city was preparing for some sort of festival and found herself rather enthralled with the extravagant decorations. Streamers of gold and silver lined every roof and lanterns burned with flames that appeared to change color from one moment to the next, casting a magical glow on the streets that had seemed so foreboding only hours before. Spotting a flier on a nearby post, she gave it a quick read. "Lantern... Festival? Is this really the time?" She grumbled to herself before her eyes glanced over something far more interesting. "Cash prizes? Can you really win coin and levels from something like this...?" It was a rather curious discovery for she had always thought these kinds of video games only involved monsters and fighting.

Ya, i'm writing a post up to place Rose at the festival. Taking me a while because I'm doing it on my phone while at work, haha...
Trust me... You don't need to know Japanese to teach English in Japan. :)
My Japanese is horrrrrrrible and when I moved here I didn't speak a word!

I'll make 100000 characters!
I'll probably write up an intro post today just establishing rose in the nexus then have her jump onboard the next quest.
Also, should mention that I'm not on US timezones (Japan timezone is 14 hours ahead of EST) so my posting hours may be a little off if y'all are in America (you can always feel free to move along if I'm not replying to a convo or something).

Looks good! Welcome to the crazy RP that this is. I'm glad we have another hard hitter, we needed one! Feel free to start posting. I'll be adding another quest or you can partake in the Lantern Festival, I plan to start the event today. If I can help you with a short summary of what has happened so far or anything, let me know!*nods* Wanderer-kun.
Actually, a short summary would be much appreciated. Thought I could read through just the three pages but the posts have been quite heavy with lots of moving around...
EDIT:
On second thought, I'll just wait until you post the next quest and then post my intro! I need to head to sleep anyways...
Hiya,
I'm interested in joining so here's my CS.
Real Life Name: Victoria Erickson
Soul Story Name: Rose
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Weapon: Bastard Sword and Shield
Weapon Name: Forgotten Fang and Primordial Aegis.
Class: Dragoon – A mobile, yet highly defensive class that relies on a strong shield to block incoming attacks while retaliating with abilities that leave enemies burned with magic flames. This class is a strong defender of other classes, very resistant to ranged attacks, and can hold its own by whittling down enemy life-bars but struggles against very fast opponents or large groups of enemies as the Dragoon’s armor is significantly weaker on the sides and rear. This class is proficient in both sword and spear and can fight from the back of a mount.
Soul Attack: Aspect of Rage – The Dragoon is surrounded by the fiery spirit of an ancient dragon which burns all surrounding enemies for extremely high damage.
Move Pool:
Magic
Line Breaker – With terrifying speed, the Dragoon charges forward with shield raised and knocks down the first enemies struck before delivering a vicious sword sweep that leaves a trail of burning flame.
Cost 40SP
Challenging Roar – The Dragoon emits an earsplitting shout that taunts strong enemies into attacking them and freezes weak enemies with fear.
Cost 20SP
Melee
Ancient Scales – The Dragoon raises her shield, significantly increasing her defense while lowering mobility, which then emits a gout of magic flames that burn enemies in front of her.
Ancient Claws – The Dragoon strikes twice in quick succession before slamming her shield forward in an attempt to knock the enemy off balance.
Avatar Appearance: Victoria stands at an even 6’ and weighs roughly 160lbs. Her hair is a fiery red, cut short so that it falls just past her ears and it is never overly styled. Years of difficult sports training have left her limbs strong and limber: a versatile athletic build which she carries with comfortable ease. This manner of body language along with her elegantly sculpted features; a smooth jawline, gently sloping nose, slightly arched and well-manicured eyebrows, and a thin mouth; and striking green eyes gives her a positively regal aura which her mood of calm determination hardly dispels. She wears a set of steel half-plate armor, the metal dyed red with dull gold caps and highlights and the leather a dark earthen brown, over which is draped a tabard of black silk bearing a single gold cross. A thick hooded-cloak is hung over her shoulders, black with gold trimming. A large shield is carried on her left arm or strapped across her back, it’s black metal body adorned with an image of twisting thorny vines and a single blooming rose done in gold, and her other hand grips the hilt of a beautiful, though plain, silver bladed hand-and-a-half sword.
Personality: Victoria is often calm and collected, a natural leader who does everything she can to conquer problems with logic and precision. She has a very mature grasp on her emotions and will rarely be caught in an outburst, though this can sometimes leave an impression of coldness with those she’s just met. While often having responsibility thrust upon her, as opposed to taking it herself, she has grown very accustomed to being the one making suggestions in the social groups she spends time with and simply hates long instances of indecision. She is friendly and caring, highly protective of those she considers friends or comrades, but has a hard time opening up as it makes her feel like she’s relinquishing control. This can lead her to be burdened by many problems and responsibilities, even those that aren't her own, up to her breaking point.
Victoria was never really interested in video-games before being trapped in Soul Story, she borrowed her younger brother's copy when she came home from university to visit, but has managed to throw herself in wholeheartedly and gaining a good understanding of the game mechanics after the initial shock passed. This does mean, however, that she is rather lacking on the finer points of social etiquette and gamer jargon often saturating gamer-culture. Nearly 15 years of intense basketball training and being a starter for one of the US's strongest women's basketball teams with very strong WNBA prospects has given her a very sharp mind and tactical insight that allows her to quickly analyze all sorts of enemies and battlefields.
