Hey guys, it's about the middle of the month, and so far, September's looking a lot like August. Have no fear, Ash and I are gearing up some event fun to come later on, but we want all of you involved in playing too! So, here's a little way to get the plots flowing, hopefully! All you have to do is fill it out with copy and pasting, and talk with each other! You are all very strongly encouraged to participate. That's one step down from "mandatory."

Character Name: Plot suggestions: Whatever suggestions you have for plots involving/that may involve your character. Current Storylines: What’re they going through right now? Character issues you wish to explore: Upcoming Storylines: If you have upcoming storylines that aren’t meant to be a surprise, please list them here, list who’s involved, if it’s open/closed, and anything else you need! Possible Plot Traits: Things about your character that may trigger responses/plots from others.

Also, over the past few months, you've gotten to know your mods, but now we get to start learning about our fellow players with a Player of the Month (and this is purely voluntary to participate--but if we could get a volunteer for October, please let us know!), and this month it's Angie!

Name: Angie C because only people at work and my mother should call me Angela
Date of Birth: 11-30-78
Relationship Status: Single
Kids/Pets: I have 2 cats, a mismatched brother and sister duo named Lennon and Serendipity. Do roomies count? I have two of those, too.
Hometown: Pennsylvania
Day Job: Customer care rep for Hartford AARP Insurance.
Dream Job: Magical fairy princess karate master... But barring that, I would be a writer.

Mythological Background: My memory is a bit foggy but I'm pretty sure I discovered Greek mythology in about third grade and promptly became obsessed. I distinctly remember the location of the mythology books in the children's section - just one shelf over from my other obsession, fairy tales. I graduated to Egyptian and Roman and meandered my way through other pantheons over time. In fact, my first ever text-based RP was an interesting mash-up of the Magical Girl genre in anime and various world mythologies... And aliens. Because. Just aliens.

RP Background: I've been text-RPing since 2000 and have either modded or co-modded three games over that time. I have assisted in designing/building many more. I have more voices in my head than is strictly good for a person. I dabbled in tabletop back in high school, mostly the Hero system and DND, but found it nearly impossible to find another group that would let an icky girl in once I was away from school. Right now, I'm in... a lot of games. Mostly because this is my crack, people. It keeps me off the streets, running amok, and starting snap-dance fights. It's peer pressure, I tell you.

Fun Facts: I spent my junior year of college over in England, stationed at the University of Essex. Which happens to be in Colchester, the oldest recorded town in England and the place where Boudicca famously handed the Romans their asses.

I collect hats which is useful since my magical superpower is wearing hats and looking spiffy.

Every 2-3 years, I chop off at least 10 inches of my hair to donate. I've been doing this for about 10 years now.

My favorite authors are Spider Robinson, Terry Pratchett, Emma Bull, and Peter S Beagle (who also happens to be one of the sweetest old dudes around). Poetry goes to Rumi, Hafiz, and Neruda.

I used to dream of playing Rosaline in Shakespeare's As You Like It.

I will soon be a published erotica author under a pen name.

Open to additional questions: Okey dokey!

Character Name: Sir Percival
Plot suggestions: He's up for anything, really! Meeting more of the NYC crew, meeting more of his pantheon.
Current Storylines: Nothing much. He's solidified himself pretty firmly in Titania's corner of the pantheon.
Character issues you wish to explore: His naivety is bound to get him in trouble with someone. XD Coming to terms with being a Knight.
Upcoming Storylines: Whatever's clever! ^_^
Possible Plot Traits: Super friendly, naive as hell.

Character Name: Oberon
Plot suggestions: Open to anything that will get him in trouble. XD I'd love to throw Mab and Titania at him, though not at the same time.
Current Storylines: Just his ongoing flirtations/relations with Aphrodite.
Character issues you wish to explore: His love/hate relationship with Titania, coping with not being the one in charge any longer.
Upcoming Storylines: There's a meeting with Puck coming up, actually...
Possible Plot Traits: He's a jerk, an actor, wants to regain at least some of what he had before. XD

	At some point, Puck's likely to end up back in NYC on pantheon business. He and Percival could totally go paint the town red. ^_^ And, Dite and Triton are both in NYC, so... Yeah. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Puck and Percival painting the town red sounds HILARIOUS and like the worst idea ever. We must TOTALLY DO THIS. XDDDDD (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	ALL THE HIJINKS! He's going out to LA to see Oberon here this week, but.... Early October, maybe? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And then they call Titania to bail them out of jail? I'm getting the popcorn for this one. Those are mighty cute boys. ;) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, you know what they say... A good friend will come visit you in jail. A great friend will bail you out. And a really great friend will be in the cell with you going, "Oh, man, that was awesome!" XD (Reply to this) (Parent)
