Manchester Honors OOC

hello All,

I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I'm Kevin, and can be reached at kevin.robbins.jr@gmail.com, or on Facebook/AIM chat as Kevin A Robbins Jr. I don't really like AIM however as I'm usually doing a hundred and one things at a time. I'm a strong gamer who has had some experience with a similar format, but am somewhat new to insane Journal.

My character is Lord Arfaron Certhgeredir and is an elf with a serious case of snark. Oh, and he's a good guy. Really. I'd say honest but already you don't believe me. WHY WON'T YOU BELIEVE ME?!?

Ahem. Anyways, It's good to meet you all and I am looking forward to playing with you all!

Hey everyone! I've been around long enough that I found it was time to bring in a new character. His name is Wyatt Grayson and he is a werewolf. He has a bit of a sordid past and still has the call of flesh but he's learned to deal with it a bit. Mostly it hits him when it's a full moon. He tends to keep to himself most of the time so you really have to get to make the first step. But I'm definitely looking for lines for him though. Through me what you've got!

Hey guys!! We have a brand spanking new player. Please welcome Kevin to the game, along with his character, the elf prince Lord Arfaron. Rosie is also bringing us a new character in the form of a werewolf named Wyatt.

Just a little note to let you know that Dori is bringing in her third character, Adrian Miller, a muse. Cailin is also bringing in a new character that some of you may recognize, Breeze Tavern, a vampire. Breeze will be the librarian and House Naur's counselor. Sadly, Cailin is dropping Autumn. So please update your friends list here and get to plotting with the newbies!

That sums it up pretty well.

Hey, everyone! I'm the other new kid on the block, Shrew! And I bring you Carly Doe. Carly is a vampire that doesn't really know where she's going or where she's been, but she damn well knows where she is right now. Most of the time. Sometimes. Actually, not at all. She's uneducated, unrefined, and socially unacceptable. For the last twenty years, she's been working as an assassin thanks to her delightful talent for killing people. But now, one of her closest friends has managed to guilt her into bettering herself by getting an education.

Hilarity will inevitably ensue.

I am up for plot of all kinds! Carly has recently discovered technology and has a snazzy new phone and laptop, so mass e-mails to the whole campus are a definite possibility as she has yet to understand how all this business works. If she gets possession of your phone number, she will text nonstop because she loves the sounds they make. Any local bars will get to know her very well - she's a binge drinker.

Can't think of anything else off the top of my head that could facilitate plot, but if any of y'all think of something, please let me know! :) I am so excited about this game and look forward to meeting all of you!

Hey everyone, I'm Pandora/Panda/Pandie/whatever variation of that you want to use, and I'm the owner of Yanagi, an angel. She's sweet and easy-going, and would love a friend or two (or eight), but she's painfully shy. She's a member of the swim team and is an excellent archer.

I'm really excited to be a part of this game and can't wait to play with all of you. If anyone wants plots, feel free to drop me a line!

Hey all! We have two new players: Shrew and Pandora. They are bringing us Carly Doe and Yanagi Moritonde, respectively. Please update your friends list here and welcome them to the game!

Noah is bringing in his fourth character, a new professor, Nicola Morgan. Please update your friends list here and welcome her to the game!

Yeah. I know, I know. We already have so many new characters popping into the bunch that it's going to be difficult to keep track, but I got all excited about it and decided it was time to shove this little piece of work into the mix. Ally was too tired to do a mod post to introduce her, so she said I could just go ahead and do it myself.

So, Kathryn ((mun of Dhivael stoic_dhivael and of Jia Li leaves_of_ash)) here with my third and hopefully final character. I have a feeling if I have any more characters, I won't be able to handle it.

Anyway, this is Maya Johar. She's a jinni ((singular version of djinn)), and she's a party girl for sure. She's very vain and often shallow, and she loves having the spotlight on her. Drugs, sex, and rock 'n' roll are definitely her things. She's pansexual, and she takes pride in her skills of seduction. She's even seduced people who apparently weren't into women. That takes some skill, yes?

On the outside, she's super fun-loving and magnetic, but on the inside, she's selfish and she lacks a real conscience. She doesn't feel guilt about ruining lives or breaking hearts, but she is djinn, soooo yeah. ^^_^^

As far as school goes, she's a theatre major. She mostly does backstage work ((like sewing and choosing costumes, painting sets, etc.)), but she also loves to act, and she's pretty good at it.

She's a junior, so that will have given her plenty of time to make enemies, friends with benefits, regular friends, and some regular acquaintances. Maybe the sorts of people with whom she just parties but with whom she doesn't regularly associate.

Soo... yeah... Maya Johar! ^^_^^

I am here to introduce Meda Smith, Professor of Supernatural Studies!

Meda is a obviously a kitsune, and this can easily be told by the three silver fox tails that she can not (and doesn't really want to while teaching for Alden) hide. She was born in Japan more then 200 years ago and has spent most of her long life learning about the would around her. She has been traveling the world for the last 30 or so years and wishes to settle down, at least for a while anyway.

Professor Smith is very much looking forward to teaching the lovely and diverse student body of Alden University, can cant wait to meet the other staff and students alike!

This is Daniel Petrov, who goes by the name 'Dano' to friends and family. Dano attends Alden with a family member, Drew Petrov, a cousin he wouldn't spit on if he were dying of thirst. He blames Drew for abuse when he was younger and the death of his girlfriend, Anna.

Dano loves to play the bad boy. He loves flirting, especially if it's inappropriate, cigarettes, beer, naughty inuendoes, etc. Anything to further his bad boy image. Unlike his cousin, Dano is rough on the outside and good on the inside; deep down, he pulls for the underdog and when the chips are down, protects the innocent.

Oh yeah, Dano is a werelion too!

~Mark

(P.S. I have his User Info ready to go. I'll be posting it tonight)

Hey guys! It's Ally, bringing you one Micah Petrov. He also goes by a shortened version of his middle name, Drew, but only to family. Speaking of family, Micah here has a cousin who is also attending Alden. A cousin he loathes with every fibre of his being. Once upon a time they both loved the same girl, and that girl died which tore them up. Anyway, Micah is a werewolf. He's also a playboy and a thrill seeker. He's a charmer, but can also be pretty manipulative. On the outside, he's the epitome of a gentleman, but on the inside he's pretty rotten. But look how pretty he is! He's got some major tattoos, too. But some of them you have to get him naked to see. *brow waggle*

That's it from me, come play with him!

Hey guys!

We have four new characters to the game! Please update your friends list here. Dori is bringing us a new faculty member, Meda, a kitsune. Jenni is bringing us a new student, Takeshi, another kitsune. I have a new character, Micah, a werewolf. And Mark has a new character, Dano, a werelion.

We would like to announce that we are lifting the limit of characters to 5. Not many of you are even close to that, so it's probably not that big of a deal, but Mark and I are happy!

We also have a concern about OTA threads that are going unanswered. I have a thread that has been up since July 15th that hasn't been answered. This is not a "poor me" rant. There have been others who have had OTAs go unanswered so long that they've taken them down. We are happy with the level of activity from most of you, but what concerns us about the unanswered threads is that if it were a new player and their thread went unanswered for over a week, that would be a very poor reflection upon us as a whole. I understand that your characters might not fit into every scenario put up under an OTA, but this is a game that is meant to be played, and not just with the people you are friends with. We are by no means trying to get on anyone's case about this, we just wanted to bring it to your attention in case you were unaware.

We really appreciate you all!

Ally

Hey, everyone!

Kathryn ((mun of Jia Li leaves_of_ash)) here with an all new character!

Her name is Dhivael ir-Elehu t'Vrenak, and she's an extraterrestrial from the planet ch’Havran in a distant galaxy. She's come to Earth with the intention of studying the humanoids that inhabit it along with their emotions and their cultures. See, the people from her planet don't feel emotions as closely as humans of Earth. They only feel emotions distantly. They pushed emotion on the back burner centuries upon centuries ago in favor of increasing intelligence to what it is today. That's why they're so technologically advanced that they can travel from their planet to Earth.


Anyway, millions of years ago when Neanderthals were still present on Earth, it's believed that a ship containing Dhivael's race of people and their sister races crashed on this planet, so their people have been studying any possible connections between the humanoids of Earth and those of the planet ch'Havran and sister planets. After all, the people of Earth do look a great deal more like her people than Neanderthals. =3

Anyway, yeah. Anticipate many amusingly awkward moments where Dhivael offends without meaning to do so or where she seems incredibly naive on her quest to understand emotions and the strange humanoids of Earth.

Hey guys!

We have a new player, Dori, bringing us a new character, Kaydence (a siren). Please give her a warm welcome and update your friends list here. We lost a character and gained a new one, so make sure you update. I'm unable to update the website for the time being because it appears to be down, but I'll fix it as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience!

I have been really under the weather. I've been sick for over a week now and haven't been feeling up to doing much which is why I haven't been around. I will try to catch up on my tags as soon as I can, but as I'm going back to work today I have a feeling I'm going to have a lot of work to catch up on, too. Thanks for understanding!

Hey everybody! This is Rosie. I had been religiously checking my email ever since I sent off my application, and then go figure I had to work all day once I saw that I'd been accepted. But now that I'm finally home, I can put this up.

This is my character, Raina Maris. She's a mermaid and totally loves it. She's a little self absorbed and tends to get easily distracted by shiny reflective surfaces. I would love lines with everyone! Especially a guy friend she can scope out boys with and some girls she can be friends with. Her bio's in her profile but one thing is she doesn't like vampires or the offspring of. Blood suckers make her queasy.

I look forward to getting to write with all of you!

Hey guys! We have a new player, Rosie, bringing us a new character, Raina.

Please give her a warm welcome and update your friends list: here.

Hey, everyone!

My name is Kathryn, and I'm twenty years of age though I hit the big twenty-one in November. ^^_^^

Anyway, I've been role playing for about ten years though I don't think I really started getting anywhere near decent until I was eighteen ((I've read old role play posts, so my comparison is valid.))

Anyway, I've been role playing in games of Ally's and of Mark's since I was seventeen, and we get along, so it seemed only natural that they point the way toward this game. ^o_~^


Now to talk about my character.

This is Jia Li Adlar, and she's a twenty-year-old dryad. All of her information can be found in her profile, but I'll let you know a little summary about her now.

She's a sophomore with a major in environmental studies. It seemed only natural considering her connection to her tree and to trees in general.

Anyway, she has a bit of trouble trusting people as an ex-boyfriend of hers went psycho and tried to burn her tree to ash ((I know... bad pun considering her tree species is the white ash...)) when she was sixteen. However, she still likes to be social. After all, you don't have to fully trust someone to speak with them or become their acquaintance. Also, just because it takes time to earn her trust, it doesn't mean it's impossible.

She's currently enrolled for the fall term, but I think it makes sense for her to take a summer class to actually have her at Alden. Otherwise, I would have no reason to have her there until this fall since this is played in real time. Of course... I could just have her there to practice dancing and such since she's a part of the women's dance team in her house ((Kemen)).

For potential plot lines, Jia should probably have a few friends she met last year if that's possible, and making new friends is always fun.

She also needs a dorm mate because she doesn't have one. ^^_^^

If anyone can think of any other lines they'd like to have with her that I haven't mentioned, I'm totally open to hearing about it and possibly playing with it.

((Sorry if this is so long winded. XD ))

I should also mention that my instant messaging information is available in my journal to those who I have friend-ed.

They sort of frown on me not introducing myself because uhm, it makes me seem unsociable. So, anyway, I'm Misery, I'm far too old and unfortunately not getting younger, I've been rping for like... 15 years or something horrific. I've played more or less everything once already, as 15 years is a hella long time, so this isn't my first trip around the race track, obviously...

Anyway, Des is a dhampir, and a somewhat quiet one at that, so I'll probably be looking for people to collaborate with to force social interaction on him, because, well, I just love to torture my characters like that.

So yeah, that's me. I'll keep it short. Carry on.

Hey guys! We have a new player, Misery, bringing us a new character, Desmond.

Please give him a warm welcome and update your friends list: here.

Hi guys,


I'm Luca, and it's been a while since I've done any RP. But this game looked like fun, so I'm going to give it a shot. My Aim SN is the same as this journal, Icarus Blinded. Easy, no? I can't say I've ever RP-ed anything with supernatural beings though, so this should be interesting.

My boy's name is Xan, and he is one very confused Nephilim (half angel, half human). There wasn't much information I could find on his type either. I decided he'd probably have a mix of human and angelic qualities, unlike Dhampirs who tend to 'often have the powers of a vampire with none of their weaknesses'. He's still not very used to his true nature and even, in some ways, resents it.

I tend to keep weird hours, as I work night shift. I'm on PST and I'm usually up from 3pm-6am. Despite that, I'm always up for plotting, planning and mayhem. :3 Give me a poke on Aim anytime.

Talk to you all soon,
Luca

Hello to all!

I'm Alpha, a kind of older byrd who is just crazy about these rp games and writing.  I am bringing my new boy to the game.

His name is Tobias Cohen.  He is a genie, from an area sort of parallel dimensions to Lebanon.  He is a full genie, and sort of tried to sow his oats when he turned 18.  It backfired, and he got himself bound to a bottle.  Thus humiliated, he must go to college to appease the parents.  He has nothing against humans, or college or anything; he just wanted to explore the genie world first on his own terms.

Well, he is House Naur.  He needs a roommate.....and he is taking classes to learn more about humans and other beings.  Right now, his disposition is a bit more grumpy but he is normally a mischievous kind of guy and once he gets feeling a bit better about everything, expect MISCHIEF.  Like most genies, he can go to smoke, become invisible and turn into other animal forms.  This makes for great tricks..etc.....

I am bustierde on aim/yahoo and that is my email on yahoo.com as well.  Poke me anytime and we can plan out some plots.

Hey guys! We have a new player, Luca, bringing us a new character, Alexander (Xan).

Please give them a warm welcome and update your friends list: here.


So... we have like 11 players now! That's a lot! We have over 20 characters, too! That means that we should be seeing a lot of playing going on. Let's get playing, people!

Mark & Ally

Hey ya'll! (Shh, I'm in Texas.) We have two new players bringing us two new characters.

Sorry its taken me a few to introduce myself!

Hey everyone I'm Jenni. I know I have played with a few of you before. I am so glad this game was created and am extremely happy to be playing!

My pup is Davan. He is a demigod and the son of Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of Love, Lust, and the Arts. He is very flirtatious, very out there...he likes being noticed, he likes making people laugh and smile and be happy. He also likes anything pretty and therefore this school is just going to be fun for him.

Please feel free to hit me up for some plot lines or just to talk at lilyshax or thisgirlpushes on aim!

Or email me at hellfirepups@gmail.com

Hi everyone! Matt here with character number two. This is Gemma, a fiery demi-goddess who's brutally honest and doesn't care who she offends in the process. She's the daughter of Ares, and she's got her father's temper and competitive nature. She's definitely not the type to mess with.

Gemma's a junior at Alden, majoring in applied physics, and she's on the fencing, tennis, and volleyball teams. More on her can be found here. I'd love to get some plots going for her (I know I sort of worked something out with Ally last night that should be a great time, and anything else will be awesome). Any questions or concerns, feel free to ping me!

AIM: wasurenaikara182@gmail.com
Email: wasurenaikara182@gmail.com

We have two new players and three new characters to the game! Yay!

First is Jenni with Davan. Second is Matt's second character Gemma, and third, but not least is Noah with Septimus!

Give them all a warm welcome when they introduce themselves or their characters and go update your friends list.
