Well...hi.

I'm really bad at these things. But yeah, I'm a twentysomething freelance writer and artist (mostly a hobbyist artist, but I do make paid stuff to accompany some of the articles I write sometimes). My interests include art, video games, webcomics, tabletop roleplaying games (FATE core is my absolute fave system), elves, water/hydromancy/water magic, and probably a bunch of other stuff I can't think of at the moment because isn't that always how this goes?

Fun fact, I have an identical twin sister, and yes, we do like to wear cutesy matching outfits like all the time. Sadly I haven't been able to rope her into any kind of play-by-post rp stuff like this (though she does enjoy tabletop a fair bit), but she loves it when I make twin characters on sites like this loosely based on the two of us (in which case I tend to just ask her "hey, would you say/do this in this situation?" before submitting a post, which is the closest I can get her to participating in this sort of thing. XD), so you can probably expect identical twins as the first characters I post here.

Otherwise I'm pretty boring. Glad to meet you all!

Woah, I'm the first to answer.

Hello. I'm Schrodinger's Cat. If you look in the Cbox sometimes, I'll be prowling, though I'm not a moderator, just weird.

I have to say, I share most of your interests, though I'm not a fan of hydromancy, Being more of a Pyromancer Fan myself. Any particular webcomics? I might have read them myself.

I also have a twin, a brother in my case, but we are not Identical. It's like the movie TWINS with Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Guess which one is Devito. :') If you need someone to roleplay the other twin, I'll be more than happy to do it.

In all cases, welcome to the site!

Heya Dream Mist!

I'm a writer too! Did you and your sister ever swap classes when you were in school, or pretended to be each other?

Welcome to SA! I hope to see you around the Cbox some time!

Hey Dream, welcome to the site! I'm Nameless, and if you have some questions, feel free to get in touch, or call out to the staff and other members, they're equally as helpful :D

I always wanted to play tabletop RPGs but that kind of thing isn't big over here, and online ones... weeeell, timezones are a big hurdle. I had one experience where a forum I was in tried doing something like DnD using the diceroll function of forum motion... I got killed as soon as we started because someone threw something and got a 20. I didn't call it out, but I was salty af.

Hey there and welcome to SA!

I'm ReD and it's great to meet you. I think, to some extent, we're all kind of bad at introductions but yours was really interesting in getting to learn more about you! I'm a former technical writer myself and have since moved onto therapy and counseling, but I love love love to talk shop when it comes to writing.

I'm also happy to be responding to this on my designated tabletop day. :)
I play pathfinder on Wednesdays and I DM a game of D&D inconsistently (moving 3 hours from home does tend to mess up a good campaign.)

We have a lot of tabletop players here as well so there's no shortage of people to talk about your hobbies with.

There's actually a fatecore group here on SA, I think!


Welcome again to SA. I look forward to saying 'hello' in the cbox!

Faaaaate core you say? We happen to have a Faetcore game going on now. I'm a terrible GM but we have a fun discord channel for it. :D

@Everyone: Thanks all for the welcomes! Seems like a pretty friendly place here. ^^

@Schrodinger's Cat: Heeee, fun! And while I appreciate your offer, I'll probably end up rping both twins as long as that's not against the rules or something. My sister does really enjoy getting into the creation process and looking over my shoulder while I'm writing and "approving" the actions of the character based on her before I post. She just can't be assed to actually make an account. *rolls eyes* And yes sis, I see you there sticking your tongue out right behind me. (she says hi)

Webcomics, hmmm...well, I follow Rain, a really sweet slice of life comic about a transgender girl in high school. Also Gunnerkrigg Court, which is really hard to explain in a nutshell but is really fun and sweet and has sci-fi elements as well as fantasy stuff like magic, faeries, ghosts etc. Those are the only two I'm actively following right now, but if you're curious about anything I might have read in the past, feel free to PM me? How about you?

@WorldDevourer: yes, yes we did. Like all the time. Our parents never fell for it, but it was fun to see what people we knew didn't notice and which ones did. Once sis ended up taking my class on a pop quiz day, and felt really bad because it was technically cheating, and also because she did way worse than I would have since the subject wasn't her strong suit. We didn't do it as much after that. ^^;
