Computer's getting fixed tomorow, er, today. Holy shit its already 1 AM. I'm drunk

Bio

The name's Specter, though some folks call me Spectre because they cant read or Spec, the er is the correct way of spelling it, because the name's not from a ghost: Its actually from a PS2 game called SOCOM: Combined Assault

I'm in and out when it comes to roleplaying so I suppose that makes me a bit of a poor partner, I try to put in effort when I can and if the night seems right.

Also, I dont do discord, not since they went full George Orwell. I use other, non skype methods of chatting with the boys and if I feel the need, I'll reach out to you with the means of talking to me outside of here.

Hoo boy another year, another check in. Damn its already been four fuckin years since I first posted this thing? Time flies

Anyway I guess I should probably introduce myself: The name's Specter, 23 years old and I've been off and on roleplaying for quite a while now, mostly on the old version of the Guild but its probably been long enough now that most folks don't remember it. I'm also a guy by the way, probably should point that out I guess.

I'll say it up front now that I'm extremely fickle when it comes to writing. Its something I really enjoy doing but writers block can creep up real easily. As y'all have no doubt noticed by now I'm also pretty out of practice. It'll take me a decent amount of time to get my grammar sense back up to snuff provided I don't take another 10 month hiatus like I just came back from. My availability is also all over the place since I work for a living and I've got shit to do when I get home. Most of my posts will be in the late afternoons and the weekends. That's if I post at all, sometimes it'll be every day, sometimes it'll be once a week, other times it'll be once a month. That's the shitty thing about my writer's block, I can't promise when it'll come in and how long it'll last.

If you're okay with the above here's the part where I ramble a little about me and what I like to write about:

I'm a red blooded American Male, I own and maintain two firearms, I eat red meat and I drink Jameson from the bottle. I'd tell you my political views but frankly if modern times have proven anything its that people aren't really willing to agree to disagree, so I'll let you form your own conclusions. We've all got our own opinions so why don't we just leave it at that eh? Anyways, my preferences in roleplaying are pretty much like my own life: Simple. Military history and fiction are my bread and butter, history in general is a passion of mine. I'd love to do a story in an Old Norse setting or Ancient Rome during the Republic or the Empire. That being said I'm not picky, I've done a lot, from Superheros to Pantheons to the Post Apocalypse. I'm down for most everything if the idea is interesting enough. I like to incorporate a lot of mature things in my stories, violence, strife, misery, romance, taxes etc. but I have to admit that nothing bogs a story down for me like sex does. My writers block is unpredictable but it absolutely comes in full force when sex gets introduced. Don't get me wrong, sexual content isn't bad, I enjoy it quite a bit but its a surefire way to cause a roleplay to come to a grinding (hehe) halt. Needless to say I prefer to just fade to black and let the imagination do the job. I used to be a high casual to low advanced kind of guy and I like to say that I still am. As far as post length goes anyways, I apologize in advance for shitty grammar.

As for pairings, I'm pretty plain, I like writing what I know and I'm a guy. So I like sticking with MxF pairs. Same goes for playing different races and stuff, I like being a normal human, I've been told by a DnD partner that my taste is very boring, they're not wrong. (Though let's be fair, the spice from a good personality can make ANYTHING great and unique)

I'm pretty light on story ideas so I think I'll just list some of my favorite characters that I've created over the years and if any of you lovely ladies are interested we can hash details over private messages.

DRAMATIS PERSONAE:





I've got a few more kicking around, will update them in after work tomorrow. Maybe. Probably
People skills, Marcus Arcturus chided

You lack them

Gee, thanks for the sitrep Captain Obvious.

As you were, Sergeant Sarcasm

Goddammit

She ran off, after an altercation with the irritatingly smart boy. Leaving him and the locals at an awkward standstill. Neither party really wanted to speak to each other.

Marcus finally broke the silence with an exsasperated sigh, finally come up with something to do, to the villagers watching him, he suddenly vanished.

To Enoch and her companion, he appeared in an instant, about twenty feet in front of them.

Exhaustion hit him like a truck, his stomach suddenly felt empty and rumbled in complaint, and he was fairly certain something was bleeding inside him.

"I believe we got off on the wrong foot" he said as calmly as possible.

"I'm in a position right now where I can't be very subtle, time is running out, and I need you"

He unsheathed his blade again, this time plunging it into the sand.

"I would at the very least, like to give you the illusion of choice, I can spare you seven days, afterwards if you don't come to me, I'll have to come for you. I'm sorry it has to be this way, but that's just how it is"

Better, but still rough around the edges

Might have just lost access to my computer for a few months, will keep posted
Probably not the best approach you could've taken...

Any ideas for plan B?

A few, for one, stop swinging that blade around, its needlessly hostile, two, try to unnerve them, delve into their thoughts and glean information.

Got it

Marcus twirled Raiden in his hand before sliding it back into the sheath on his back, then lashed out with his mind, attempting to gleam details from the surrounding people. He couldn't quite understand the words of their thoughts, as his grasp on their language was minimal, so he plunged deeper, expecting to be able to understand their impressions and emotions. The cascading, chaotic flood of unintelligible feeling suggested otherwise.

He returned to reality, his mind's spectre battered senseless from the raw torrent, utterly baffled.

What's the hold up? Finding details should be easy

I.... don't understand

That's a first, coming from you,

I took the plunge, and couldn't make sense any of it, what's going on?

What could be interpreted as a heavy sigh erupted from Arcturus.

That's a topic for another time, when we're not pressed. I discovered their names while you were lost, the female we need is Enoch, the boy is Aarav, and the elder is Pandu.

Thanks

As much as he hated to admit it, Arcturus was right. He had been able to glean earlier details through just scraping the surface, figuring out why he wasn't able to understand the emotions of a human being was a matter for pondering over later.

Now came the trouble of articulating recently learned words into a cohesive statement.

"Stay your hand Pandu, I bore my blade not in hostility, but in acknowledging one's kin, the blood of a god flows through Enoch's veins, and it has been calling for her ever since she walked this earth, the time has come for her to answer."

He wanted to collapse right there, it was mentally exhausting having to delve in and translate every word you make, while attempting to avoid the hurricane of feeling

The boy, Aarav, looked like he might be a problem, while Marcus technically didn't lie with his statement, it went against what he had said earlier, and he was sure that the guy would try to jump on that fact.

You were like him once

Irrelevant, that was nearly a thousand years ago

So you say

I believe it went right up to Eren's first transformation and fight scene (which was glorious).
