We have a Character Introduction thread for the character sheets, but I wanted to make one for player introductions. So hows about you guys come say hi?
I'll start, I'm Remmy and yes I currently have three characters, and yes you can too if you'd like! I play Jaq Inola, Ivy LaShanko and Monroe here. I'm not much for personal chit chat, there a very small few I might actually talk about my day with in some vague terms. But for the most part I'm here to RP and talk about RP. So if you want to bounce plot ideas, IM away!
I want to remind everyone, this SL doesn't belong to anyONE, it belongs to EVERYone. So what your time is like here will depend a lot on you and how you communicate with the other players. I will confess, I tend to be blunt and direct but if you can accept that you'll find I'm otherwise pretty chill and easy to get a long with. Or, I hope you'll find that!
Welcome to the Group, now come introduce yourself! Tell us who you play, maybe what you're looking for or hope to find here or what you and your character have to offer plot wise.
Remmy

- wonders why folks looked but didn't say hi...- Aloha! To Remmy and everyone else not introduced yet... I'm Tu, Remmy's IRL Twin. I'm an artist that likes to paint with words as much as with pigment. I play Jane Doe, a character I've played for going on eleven years. She's got a lot of history and therefore personality and that means even I'm surprised by her from time to time. I saw on someone's bebo, the mention of their character being a real person in the game and therefore treating situations like they have real consequences, and I like that. That's how I feel when I play so, when things don't go as Jane plans, yeah, she gets a little upset about it; just as much as she gets excited by a nice, masculine voice or a nice pair of tits pressed against her in a friends comforting hug. My work schedule is wonky and my availability a little unpredictable, but I enjoy writing so, eventually I'll make time. Chat RP, IMRP, Forum, or E-mail RP are all acceptable. Happy Gaming! Cheers!

Sup Dynamic Duo!
My name is Chris, I live in Atlanta originally from Houston. I play Patrick Pierce, and Jackson Kingsley (As of today have yet to bring him to the forum). I work swing shifts which means every 4 weeks my times to play change. Sorry I know it is a pain, but work is work and "A nigga's gotta eat!" . When I have free time I play PS3, work out, train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and basically do hoodrat stuff with my friends. I am always up to work out a SL with people, or just hammer out ideas so drop me a line!

Hmm.. what to say, what to say, when I only have 15 minutes left before I need to get ready for work >.>
I'm Donnie, I've been writing since before I can even remember, and that includes jotting things down on a notepad when I didn't have a computer [old school!]. It's less of a hobby and more of a passion of mine, something I hope to do for a career one day. Alas, however, I am stuck in the real world still and have to work to earn my keep, which keeps me pretty busy during the week. [Heyyyy, that's rhymes!] I work a 9:00-5:00, well.. a 7:30-4:00, but I'm available anytime after that to plot, write, talk, whichever up to 10:00PM. A guy needs his sleep, yanno!
Anyway - I play Cullen Deacon, the other half of me, essentially. I've only been playing him for a few years, however, he's definitely made himself known to me. He has quite the dynamic personality for a man who's seemingly miserable, although his wife had boosted that brooding personality up quite a bit in the past year! He's.. well, he's an asshole, and he doesn't get along with many, though there have been a few exceptions along the line. He's all about work, work, work and making money, money, money but with the introduction of his children, Isaiah and Lailah, he's realized there's much more to life than which spot on the financial world food chain he sits. He's a very well known man, Deacon Investments is a household name just like Charles Schwab or Edward Jones. He's up there with the big dogs, and a recognizable face among New Yorkians [New Yorkians?]. What lies behind the mask, however, is a person little few know. Perhaps you'd like to find out?
I look forward to writing with all of you! SN: MacGeek1989 EMAIL: KorCull89@Gmail.com

-waves at Chris and Donnie- A pleasure to meet you both. I'm sure when it comes to writing a good and engaging story, folks wont mind waiting on weird shifts or changing availability. I can relate to your desire to apply your passion for a living but not being able to afford to yet, suckage of a profit society but if you believe, you're day will come. -solid nod- I look forward to seeing your character's stories unfold and maybe interjecting a piece of mind now and again xP

About Me: The doc is the sort of woman who as a Film Noir air about her and a brewing darkness drenched in death. For the hyper-aware, perceptive and sensitive, she's the sort to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand at attention. Jaq isn't her real name and her organ stealing ways are just a means to pay for an end. The end of the hunt for her.

Welcome, welcome! Thanks for the introductions. @ Chris -- you doo hoodrat stuff? Like what? Flick pennies at cars driving by yo hood? jk! I jest! Ahem. Of course, I look forward to our play and seeing who else we can rope into the IC drama.
@donnie, welcome to the SL you and the Mrs. I'm quite curious what the two of you will come up with and what dynamic your characters will bring into play.
I hope you guys enjoy it here, Tu included, but she doesn't get a formal welcome from me, we're past that. :-p

Hey everyone, I'm Missy. Chris just pulled me back after a what, 6..7? year hiatus so I am a bit rusty lol. In those years I have gone from working with horses to a reptile dept at a park, then to a zookeeper in WI and now a CAS (Companion animal specialist) at Petco. I actually now have the time to start playing again, huzzah! This will be my first modern none supernatural SL so should be fun and can't wait to start playing. I'm very easy going and open to all kinds of things so feel free to hit me up

Hey everyone. Looks like a good group so far, I cannot say I'm angry about the shift. um, I'm Gaplin, I don't talk much unless you catch me in a rare moment or it's about the game. Selmak is an old character of mine, I've played him many places as different versions of himself. He is also one of the character, I'd say, that teeters the edge of modern realism. The Badlander culture will be in the root of all my play and it's quite unconventional but well thought out I think. I'd also like to give credit where it's due, Remmy and her twin Tu actually designed the original Badlander concept. I was just lucky enough to get in on it.
I welcome all kinds of plots. Easy starts for RP would be through Selmak's work. I work a lot, and I won't apologize for it. So know I may only post once a week, but I can promise at least that for whatever threads I have going. I'm working on his character sheet next.

-pounces on Gaplin with a grin- Welcome! Glad to see you. I think this is the first time we'll see a Badlander in play without playing one ourselves actually... It's going to be interesting.
@missy, excellent. I will find you for plotting when I have more time to concentrate on it.

-oof- Doesn't anyone hug anymore?
Kidding :-D
I didn't think of that, but you are right. Though you can always bring in a Badlander. Nejra? Maddox? Could be helping Juju with his business in New York. Up to you.

Hello all,
I'm Laurie and I am the mun of Alessandro Bellarmine (chaotic ballet) and the devil himself, Taylor Kane (nighttimeburn). I have to say I'm relieved to be around some sane people for a %^&%^& change. I'm a lot older than probably all of you combined LOL. Most of my details are on my mun page on Alessandro's webbie, and whatever social media I have open on the forum currently under those names, but I am married, have adult children, and am going to nursing school full time currently. I have a papillon dog named Sasha, a cat named Sydney, and I am totally insane. I've been playing since DOS was invented practically. I started off in Gorean roleplay in 1995, and used to write in first person then. But eventually I evolved to become the player some of you have had the pleasure of playing with, and I stopped that first person BS and went to third person. I moved from Gor in approximatey the year 2005 to Arts & Entertainment--where I started playing modern-supernatural storylines and perfecting my writing ability.
I look forward to becoming a vital part of this community and getting to know you all in some way, shape or form--through our roleplay together!
With pleasure, Laurie player of Taylor and Alessandro

Welcome Laurie! May I say you chose an excellent PB for Taylor. That guy can deliver a charming or malicious look without trying. Lovely banner. Though Ballet may be a little lost on Jane, I have a notion to have her get tickets for the next show anyway...

Post by Thalia Deacon on Apr 23, 2013 15:33:07 GMT -5
:Wave: Adra, the [sometimes] better half of Donnie! I've been writing for.. 18 some years, longer? Been RPing 14 or some years. I play Thalia Deacon and Claudia Bering, the wife and half sister of Cullen Deacon respectively. And possibly a third, though I've got to get around to being unlazy and make her a bebo.
Unfortunately for Thalia, aside from being the much younger "trophy" wife of a household name billionaire, she's got very little fame and fortune of which she doesn't care much about. Of course she isn't anything close to a trophy wife and their relationship is completely the opposite of what the media says it is. Her life easily revolves around her husband which she is blithely in love with [yet has wrapped easily around her pinky], her two children Lailah and Isaiah, and her very odd family which recently lost one of the driving forces. She's hardly content with being the stay at home mother her husband wishes she was, instead she struggles to do her very best to keep her position at Boston Museum of Fine Arts, though with the recent summer move to NYC, she's got a temporary position with a new acquisition of art at the MET and the Frick. I've been playing her for going on two and a half years.
Course then you have Claudia who is the long time friend of Thalia who also, low and behold, turned out to be Mr. Deacon's half sister. What can we say, Papa 'Deacon' got around! Claudia's the slightly older BFF of Thalia who gave up her parent's dream of her being pre-law when she realized how damn boring it was. Instead she did what she was always good at, went back to her camera and building a budding design line. I've been playing her for.. er.. a few months and only after replacing the mun who was playing her.
I also NPC the father, grandmother, and young daughter. Not to speak for him, but Donnie and I come sort of bearing a small hoard of NPC's attached to the Deacons. Though I think I'd be partially open to someone playing Claudia's older "biobrother".
I've got a slew of confusing places I play. If it's in public rooms I'll be found on InfractusPennae, if it's in private rooms or Private play I can be located on a.brighter.discontent [aim logs, and I love logs]
