Thought perhaps we needed one of these? Guess I'll go first.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Hello loves! I'm Dorian (actually my name's Apolline). 20, from Liverpool England, and engaged to the most wonderful footballer ever (Jordan Henderson. Look him up). I write historical fiction, poetry, and songs. What else? Hmm. I'm going to give you the 'normal' facts. Pardon the abundance of them.
• My family comes from Co. Cavan, Ireland. I'm Irish! • I do have a Scouser accent, being from Liverpool and all. • I speak fluent English, Gaelic, French, Italian, and Spanish. • I'm a supporter of the Oxford Comma. • I rode horses for six years and still regret stopping. • I'm working toward a history major. • I play football for fun, and love love love Liverpool FC! • I sing, play guitar, play piano, play ukulele, play bodhran, play violin, and play Irish whistle. • I'm a thespian and love theatre and improvisation. I make costumes too. • I ADORE Monty Python. They're so bloody funny. • I'm a Christian, and super-proud. • I love history. It's my obsession. Hence, my love for Lord of the Rings. • Pirates of the Caribbean, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Merlin, and Games of Thrones for the win! • I have a bearded dragon, named Cutler William Wallace. • I adore Oscar Wilde, Conan Doyle, Yeats, Shakespeare, Lord Byron, Poe, James Joyce, Corneille, etc... Literature in general, actually. • I have a fish named Seamus. • Favourite music includes the High Kings, Kate Rusby, Celtic Thunder, Keane, the Beatles, Panic! At the Disco, the Script, Ryan Kelly, Keith Harkin, Patrick Fiori, Chris Mann, etc. As I write this, Keith Harkin's lovely voice is stuck in my head. • I'm so glad the Hillsborough documents were released recently. YNWA! • I'm also a serious pacifist... Nonviolence is my thing. The pen is mightier than the sword. • Speaking of the pen. I'm currently working on a collection of novels. If you've any interest in reading them, I'd love to share them! • I aspire to take over all of Europe by carefully overthrowing each government. I will then construct an empire for myself based on trade and good deeds. And of course, build a hobbit hole for myself. • My two favourite people are Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr. • I can quote almost anything. Photographic memory has served me well. • Ask me anything else. I love to talk. Love it. Clearly.
Love you all, and I cannot wait to meet you <3

My goodness. You just named like a bunch of my favorite things. I am impressed with how awesome you are. <3
Bonjour, I am Elizabeth, though I mostly go by Lizzy online. I'm 22, from Ontario, Canada. I'm generally a really shy person, so I apologize if I don't talk a lot at first. Once you get to know me it's hard to shut me up. random facts:- I make money cleaning offices and daycares with my family four days a week, but I aspire to be an author.
- I have two cats. Smokey (I didn't pick that out) Sirius, who I believe is a Korat, and Oliver James, who's a brown tabby. I used to have a grey tabby named Mickey Albus ('Mickey' being short for McGonagall).
- I'm a non-denominational Christian, and also very proud.
- I like to craft. I make my own birthday and Christmas cards, and crochet and do plastic canvas. I plan to open an Etsy store for these bookmarks I make.
- I write everything from fantasy to historic fiction to fanfics. I can't really get the hang of poetry or songwriting.
- I spend way too much time watching tv. Some of my favorite shows are Supernatural, Sherlock, Merlin, Once Upon a Time, Haven, Grimm, and Castle.
- It would take too long to list my favorite books, so I'll name some authors. JK Rowling, John Green, Maureen Johnson, Garth Nix, Eoin Colfer, Suzanne Collins, Tiffany Marie Saxe, Stephenie Meyer, Georgia Byng.
- I'm half French-Canadian, and parts Ukrainian and Scottish, but I only speak English fluently.
- When I'm not rping, I waste time on tumblr and youtube. I vlog occasionally.
- I'm a nerdfighter. (It doesn't mean what you think it means.)
- My musical taste is usually rock, but my current favorites are Florence + The Machine, The Trews, and Billy Joel.
- I've spoken with three of my favorite authors.
That's all I can think of. Feel free to ask me stuff. I love making friends. ^_^

Howdy, y'all!
My name is Tye. First thing's first: I am, in fact, as male (you'd be surprised at how many people that surprises).
- I'm 22 years of age.
- I live in the coastal bend of Texas, in the occasionally lovely city of Corpus Christi.
- I like males, so ladies if I ever '<3' you, it's not flirting.
- I'm currently an undergraduate student getting a BA in Theatre, graduating next May (2014). Taking five years because I'm literally taking every theatre class offered here as well as getting my teacher certification. After graduating, I'm immediately going off to grad school for my MA in theatre and then after teaching for a while, I'm going to find a nice Ph. D program and then moving into teaching at the collegiate level.
- My favorite author of all time is this playwright you may have heard of. William Shakespeare, anyone?
- My directing project this semester is a 40-minute adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream...my concept being Lady Gaga inspired.
- My favorite place in the world is Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL
- I've only been outside the United States once. Visited London for 2 weeks and spent a few days in Paris.
- Once Upon a Time & American Horror Story are my favorite 'current' TV shows.
- The Golden Girls will always be my favorite TV show of all-time though....Fraiser is a close second though.
- I've RPed for about 12 years...95% of it has been on Harry Potter boards.
- I'm a social media addict. Twitter & Facebook are like drugs.

So, I figure I might as well do one of these. Hey all, my name's Jonathan, although I prefer to go by the name of my first character on a site. I'm a 21 year old from a small town in rural NSW, Australia, where I've lived since the age of 3. I dropped out of uni at the end of 2011 after trying to do a double degree in Geology and Creative Writing, and I've been working a few different jobs since. I'm currently working in a warehouse, and hopefully will for another year or so, when I intend on going on a trip to first America and then, money allowing, Europe. Obviously I have an interest in writing, but I've been too burnt out to do so until recently, and now I have way too many ideas (no, seriously, 10+ ideas for novels, movies, tv shows, video games and comics). I've mostly stuck to researching interesting and unique pieces of military technology, with a specific focus on small arms. I don't restrict myself, though, and research everything from nuclear reactors to asteroid mining. Random Facts: - I have an unholy love of history, but no focus apart from a general Australian/European/Mesopotamian focus. Acient, modern, it's all interesting to me.
- I will read almost anything. Fantasy, sci-fi, thriller, non-fiction, horror, urban fantasy, etc. While I draw the line at Twilight, I'll read most authors and generally enjoy them.
- I'm a former Christian.
- I read far too many webcomics.
- My gaming pile of shame is quite large, and all games bar Mass Effect are currently on hold. I will finish the trilogy. One day. Eventually.
- I probably enjoy the same shows you do, but there are way too many to list. NCIS, Nikita, Game of Thrones, Doctor Who and Merlin are among my favourites, and I'm currently working my way through Stargate SG-1.
- I prefer to listen to orchestral music (Two Steps From Hell, Justin R. Durbham, Denny Schneidemesser, etc) and old ballads (Glenlogie, Child Owlet, Edom O' Gordon, Raggle Taggle Gypsy, etc). I don't mind Tursias, though, and don't often dislike any kind of music.
- My goal is to write a novel. Currently I want to write a series of urban fantasy novels drawing from Norse and Mesopotamian mythology, but that's subject to change ;D.

Hello~ *waves*
My name is Chelz and I'm bringing you the cootie patootie Toothless~ I'd like to say I'm a college student in Massachusetts taking creative writing, but I took a year off in order to work on my career and I haven't really advanced there and kind of like freedom too much to go back to classes so... welp.
I'm a newbie here, but not to roleplaying. I started with Gaia online maybe 6 years ago, and graduated on to Livejournal ones (all of those seemed to die though). I stuck to those for a long time, and I was even a co-creater and admin of one of them (yep, it died too ). I got sick of all the Harry Potter based Rp's though (I love Harry Potter don't get me wrong, but it's get's annoying scrolling through RPG Ads and seeing only Harry Potter LJ Rpgs back, to back, to back, to back...) So I ventured forth in the world wide web for forum rp's. Before I could get really familiar with them though, I had a hard spot in my life which caused me to drop out completely. But I got back on track, and now after two years I'm finally coming back to the RPing scene!
Random facts:
- I love Sonic The Hedgehog, Supernatural, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Downton Abbey, The Walking Dead, Riders of Berk, Adventure Time, Avatar the Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, etc.
- Why yes, I do love the Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons idea.
- I relate better with animals than I do people.
- I am an Aquarius.
- I am a member of the Bro Army. I am also a Brony.
- I listen to all kinds of music! My favorite musician as got to be Owl City, and for a favorite composure I would have a tie between Danny Elfman and John Powell.
- I think Tim Burton is the bees knees.
- I love sci-fi, horror, psychological thriller, and children's movies.
- My favorite books are The Hunger Games, The Host, Pretties, Warriors, How To Train Your Dragon, The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, and Eragon.
- I love to write and sing.
- I have 6 chickens, 3 cats, a dog, a hamster, a parrot, and 3 beta fish.
- I'm a lurker. No really, I tend to lurk outside the cbox rather than join it but I'm not shy okay, like idk, I'm just a creeper I guess.... >>

Hola peoples! I'm Cameron! Actually John, but I usually just go by the last name of whatever character I'm playing. Usually I do more sci-fi stuff and write the typical engineer, sciencey dude, kind of thing. I love Once Upon a Time though and this site looked like an excellent place to branch out into writing characters I normally wouldn't. Things about me: - Currently live in Texas, but am in the process of moving to one of those other, 49 lesser states (Georgia).
- Looooooooooove History, especially anything from the Seven Years War time period up through the Roaring 20's. I find World War 1 especially fascinating. Also starting to learn more about African Culture, a lot cool stuff there that not a lot of people know about.
- Also really like Literature/Theater/English, I used to be more "meh" about it until someone introduced me to the Reduced Shakespeare Company and now I sometimes have to stop myself before I write ten page essays when my friends text me about a book or movie.
- I'm a generic liberal arts college student, trying to decide If I want to major in History or English.
- My musical tastes are all over the map. I'll listen to a Lana Del Rey song, something by Judas Priest, E.S. Posthumus, Pendulum, Metric, Imagine Dragons, and throw in some Apache and Ne-yo for good measure.
- Love to play Magic: The Gathering, and have a strong dislike for Yugi-oh
- Not really that big on Anime stuff, beyond a little Gundam and Hetalia
- Love playing videogames that are for P.C like Guild Wars (1), KOTOR, Mass Effect series, and the Saints Row games.
- Currently jobless, until I get to Georgia, get all my classes figured out, and know what my schedule and living arrangements going to look like.
- I have so many favorite shows, it's impossible to list them all here. But right now I'm obsessed with Revenge, Once Upon A Time, Continuum, Hart of Dixie, Psych, Suits, Burn Notice, and Arrow.
- Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate all the paranormal reality television shows with the fury of a white hot sun. Actually I have a strong hatred for reality television in general.
- I speak English, some Spanish, and a little bit of German.
- I like pie. Preferably apple, or cherry.

Well, since it's 08:33 GMT and I've been up all night slaving away on apps and stuff, figure I may as well introduce my person whilst I'm with the land of the living.
Guten tag! I am Kathleen, or Kat, or Harby, or Malcolm... naw, it's okay, just call me Kat or whatever. I'm not fussed. Really. I am at University, studying Graphic Design but things are going backwards and I'd rather not fish all that tripe back up again. Not worth the pains. I currently work at a DIY store. Hate it. Customers... Hm, shotgun comes to mind. Or a Terminator. Yep. I am from England, but yearn to go places. Would love to go visit N. America, Africa, Australia, Berlin, Amazon, Thailand (again, beautiful place!) and would be very content with moving to California or Florida. I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, hate cold and inconsistent weather. Yeah... you can tell I hate British weather! Ancestrally, I come from Devon. The best place in England!! The place of moors, ponies and proper, ANDIMEANPROPER, clotted cream. It's to die for! Ambitions... ROME! Really want to go to Rome! The Colosseum! Amphitheatres! Proper little Roman places to visit! Also, if I do manage to go, must get one of those guys that dress up in Centurion garb to kiss my cheek and have a photo done. I have a thing for ancient civilisations.... like Ancient Romans!! They are the BEST! Followed by Egyptians and Greeks. ROMANS!!
I am a Science Fiction and fantasy nutcase, love Star Trek, Time Bandits... pretty much anything to do with Sci-Fi. Yep. =/\= Oh and not forgetting Stargate Sg-1. Love that show. Ba'al, Jack, pretty much!
I own a boisterous ginger tom called, funnily enough, Ba'al. Acts like the god too.
You may have started to guess that I'm a little weird. Ha! You haven't met me yet! I'm madder than the hatter... generally, I don't make sense even when I try to make sense of what I was trying sensibly to say, in all senses of the word.
Monty Python! Blackadder! Horrible Histories! ROME! NCIS! Dexter! Buffy! list goes on and on and on and on....
I love, love, love Dinosaurs. I grew up when Jurassic Park came on and I was like... hurr, your Velociraptors a bit bigger than a turkey... Silly Spielberg hurr hurr and Sam Neill is now one of my favourite actors. I love natural history and pretty much own all the Walking With series and spinoffs. I also own Sir Conan Arthur Doyle's The Lost World with the pwetty Tom Ward as Lord Roxton and Bob Hoskins. Awesome adaptation!
I'm not a huge one for sports but I am partial to watching the Rugby and Horse Racing. I miss horse riding and really want to get back in the saddle. When I win the Euromillions! /fingers crossed!!
I love horses, snakes, oxen of all breeds, all 360+ sharks species and would really love to take in a Rottweiler for a companion. I have a huge thing for misunderstood creatures. It's not their fault at all, poor things.
I'm a supporter of Animals first, humans second because without animal and plant life, we don't exist, end of. I'm doing my Final Major Project on the subject.
Musical tastes, oh, they vary from Hammerfall, Laura Mvula, Gladiator soundtrack, Wicked, CATS, etc. If I like the sound of it, I get it. Hell, I have Rammstein (LOVE THEM!) and Himuro Kyosuke.
Religion... ah, I don't make windows into men's souls but I am not religious. I believe in Elysium, ghosts exist and Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Jelly Beans. I have a bad habit of speaking my mind when it comes to religion.... end of the line here |
I enjoy playing chess, online games such as Guild Wars 2 and World of Warcraft. I recently got Minecraft, still unsure what to think of it.
I write fanfiction when I get the time. Currently have one going for my Warrior on WoW about his past and the like. Let me know if you want to read, I shall send the link soon enough.
Running out of lark to waffle with ...
Oh! I sometimes write reviews, which reminds me... I owe one on Star Trek: Into Darkness for a friend. Bother.
I grew up reading Winnie the Pooh, Black Beauty, Willard Price's Adventure books, LOTR: Trillogy, The Narnia collection, Emperor series by Conn Iggulden... love The War of the Flowers by Tad Williams, it's a really good book. I got a Amazon Kindle and have started getting on the Pratchett bandwagon!
Now and then, I cosplay. So far I have cosplayed Abby from NCIS and Regina from Dino Crisis, oh and troll face. you know. the Trollololololololol guy. Yup
Did I mention I am as mad as a hatter?
