New Recruit!

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.
