! introduction, player: cameron

hello hello
Hey folks, I'm new. My name's Cameron, but since I take it you already have one of those in-game (it was my name first, kid, back off!), feel free to call me any nickname or variation thereof. I apologise in advance for any confusion, lmao. Anyway, I'm 24 and a graduate/professional student. I'm also falling off the wagon after 4-or-so years clean from RP, thanks to a little prodding by JJ. God help me.

I picked up 1 character. This little turdblossom is Ulysses Quayle, Ebonhide junior and baby bro to Cricket. Basically, his shtick is that he was everyone's precious baby angel until he went to boarding school and hit puberty and stuff, and then people stopped finding him cute and his whole world fell apart. Now he's like "WHO AM I" and because he's a teenager, this results in 50% melancholic navel-gazing and 50% Acting Out™. Expect trouble in everything but class, because he's terribly afraid that if he isn't effortlessly succeeding at school, it means he's lost his last identity token ("smart").

So, he's kind of a neurotic brat. Thankfully, he's also pretty charming, loyal to friends and fam, good with creatures (ask him about his blue tongued skink) 'n' kids, and somewhere deep down, a generally good guy. Ulysses is a chaser on the Quidditch team and very into it.

So yeah, that's Ulysses in a nutshell, I guess. Any plots or suggestions would be more than welcomed. I'm excited to play with you guys.

ETA: Oh, contact info! Feel free to email me at captainkickflips@gmail.com or hit me up on my CDJ, angoranimi. Sadly, I'm probably in a different time zone than most of y'all (GMT) but I'll do my best to be awake at odd hours, lol.

Okay I'm gonna try to do this concisely while I'm on a cigarette break at work

Hi, I'm roz

Most relevant is Solomon Webb (which never happens I'm so excited). He's a sophomore Ebonhide but also a chaser on the team. Solomon is a super chill kind of dude who is super understanding but he also talks a lot about a lot of things and that's probably gonna be annoying. I foresee him attempting to mediate between Clem and Ulysses without actually taking either side because he's Switzerland. Things needed to know tho - during Christmas break Casper (a beater on the team) and Solomon got into a fist fight so Solomons gonna be weirdly quiet for a while.

Then I have Teo Diaz, who is a junior ribbonfin but also went illyvekdgirn (that's how we spell that now), and was a thunderbird. They've got some classes in common. Teo is probably cooler than Ennis only Bc he looks cooler but he's a complete weirdo who Ulysses probably hates? Teo won't hate him tho. Teo loves everyone.

Then I have Olivia Sanchez who is also a junior but a coppertale. She should share some classes. She's a slightly intimidating prefect Bc she was raised as a boxer but if she ever finds Ulysses breaking any rules she prolly just tried to have a heart to heart with him. Multiple times.

And at this journal is Chris Park, the resident most active character in this entire game by over a thousand comments (I'm still living off that high because I'm fucking winning) so you're probably gonna see this asshole everywhere. He's a senior coppertale beater and pretty aggressive. He's also a terrible influence but he can be funny sometimes. He has this weird relationship with cricket where he appreciates her half the time and gives her shit the other half but he also hates people from wealth who act like they're from wealth (ironically he's very recently dating Rosy Stoker) in addition to brats who throw tantrums so dependent on how publicly Ulysses does any of that, Chris probably hates him.

AND ALSO Chris and Quinn started a hockey league called shinny that I don't have the link for but kas probably does so if Ulysses wants to take part in that just tell kas, their next game is January 22nd. I apologize for any possible typos

	It's like Ebonhide is finally trying to outdo coppertale with physical violence But to be fair, Solomon did none of the actual hitting. It was an inconvenient time to abruptly discover that you're a pacifist lmao (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I was going to say - how is this any different from every day on Coppertale's team? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	doyouevenlift 2017-01-03 08:00 pm UTC (link)
	this was before you joined (im pretty sure), but a large chunk of coppertale try outs was just Chris and Roxie knocking poor aspiring players off their brooms. 'Can't take a hit, can't be on the team' is basically their motto (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She'll stand by it. She'd probably pat them on the head in a vaguely consoling manner afterward - but she'll stand by it. It's a solid policy! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	While Chris is the asshole that tells them to get the fuck off the field, this is why they're a great team. You're our third Roxie but you're by far my favorite Roxie sorry Cameron this has nothing to do with Ulysses, we're assholes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hell yeah, teamwork! I feel honored. I would like to accept this on behalf of the Academy. Whoever they are. (♥!) Clearly Ulysses is learning valuable and winning Quidditch strategies here. Obviously. (Or we're just assholes. Either one.) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Meanwhile, the Azurcrest Quid team just likes to kiss and cuddle with each other. :\| This is why they've never lost a game. It's all that fostering of team spirit. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	HE'S SERIOUSLY LIKE WHEN DID THIS BECOME COPPERTALE. WHAT HAPPENED. WHY. He's writing an entry about that like soon :\| Not to the whole team don't worry, Solomon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Lmao, I somehow forgot to reply to this comment for real. Sorry about that. Replying under the table at work, lol, but some brief points before I forget.

1. POOR SOLOMON but also, wheee, this is gonna be fun. Definitely noted, re: Solomon being someone out of sorts as of late.

2. Ulysses is very public about all those things, so Chris probably definitely hates him despite the goodweird relationship with Cricket. They may get into scrapes. Awesome.
