When you go from walking around at 5am like a half shut knife to bouncing out your bed 10 minutes before the alarm goes off within a month of early starts at work. Self-improvement, ho!

How to know when your day as a home shopper will be busy - when your boss can't be arsed counting all the orders to pick so he logs the official total as 'mental' :-P

Best feelings as a GM #1 - Sitting at work cackling because a player has literally set up an amazing plot hook without realising it. *evil chuckle*

Bio

Well, where to begin?

I found my love of roleplays through a brief block of sessions of D&D when I screwed up enough and brought an class from an entirely different plane to join the main party. After following the plot to the end - which involved our dwarven pilot flying a gunship while simultaneously controlling 4 cannons by tying string around them - we ended up crashing through a portal onto a different plane. When attempting to formulate a plan, one of the PCs delivered a line that has stayed with me ever since.

"Ask the artificer, he's already done it once."

Since then, I've done a 3+ year RP between two players - using the FATE system - in which we created an entire city through creating mentally unstable characters and callus cold-blooded killers. One particularly nasty NPC came about by a sheer accident, when the melee-build character out-snarked the diplomat. Which was much more fun than it sounds. Had a bad experience with this site before, in which the GM didn't plan far enough ahead to include any NPCs whatsoever, and the other characters had no interest in Player-to-Player interactions outside of their own 2-man group. Needless to say, it died with incredible speed, which was a shame.

But I was tempted back by a friend to play a Pokemon RP despite having no knowledge whatsoever of the topic outside of Gen 1 stuff, and even that was years ago. Despite everything, I've not only been holding my own, but coming up with a completely separate sub-plot from the main plot, and making the GM's life a misery. (Sorry Zan!)

My writing style draws heavily from the likes of Worm and The Dresden Files, which means I can do a great deal of two things. Snark and Escalation. Outside of that, I like to think i'm a dynamic roleplayer, but I prefer sticking to High Fantasy sort of settings. Anything Slice of Life-y doesn't do it for me. Unless i'm slinging magic, psuedo-magic or demons (while snarking at whoever is unlucky enough to warrant it) I feel as though I could be doing something more entertaining with my time. When it comes to RP systems, I enjoy FATE or narrative based things.

My first RP which I am GMing on this site is themed around Dragon Age as carried on from the far superior (in my humble opinion) plot of the first game.

That's pretty much all there is to know about me that people would actually care about. I'll update it as I do with important changes or epic moments. Until then, feel free to PM me if you have questions or invites to stuff, and i'll respond as soon as I can. ^.^

This has piqued my interest. Will work on adapting one of my fanfic characters and post them up later.
Right, I will get a post up today at some point. Although I am limited as to what I can do. Sickle can't respond till Knight tells him what the chances are of him dying in the next few seconds are, Vegas can't respond until Sickle does and I know whether @knifeman wants to tag along when we leave. So my next post probably won't advance the battle all that much.

Although, if most people are waiting for Kiddo, we could continue as if they've left but leave the details vague :-P
@SkinnyTyI absolutely adore writing in all forms, so it's really not that bad. As for making them, I have around 50 waiting in the wings, even now, all with their own motivations and machinations :-P

@ProProI have better. Wait till you meet my favourite Master/Thinker :-P
@CroweI just don't like children. The ritual sacrifice is just a convenient way to get rid of them without leaving a trace :-P
@CroweSee, I thought we were on the same wavelength when I saw your signature :-P
I will post tomorrow. Didn't get much sleep last night. Spent countless hours just staring at the ceiling. Pretty shattered, so any post is likely to be incoherent nonsense :-P
Stockpiling children for the next year's worth of dark rituals to appease the Old Gods whom I serve.
@PlatinumSkinkSure thing. They'll be around soon, no doubt.

@POOHEAD189T'was a question, not a threat :-P
@SkinnyTySo let me get this straight.

Your tinker just developed an incredibly lethal toxin, that can survive as long as it remains within blood, for an entirely innocent reason. There is a violent, unpredictable hameokinetic running around. Have you just actually created a blood-based, biological super-weapon? =P
Might not be able to post tomorrow, being drafted in to cover a sick day tomorrow at work, meaning 5 5am starts this week.

Hurray!
