Welcome to Gaia! ::

I suppose I'll go first.

Hello everyone I'm Funky Monk. I'm extremely into music, hiking reading and comics. Of those this guild appeals to my super hero love quite well. I enjoy writing and although I'm not fantastic I do the best with what I've got. Roleplaying is actually a little new to me I only just discovered it back in October and I must say that in that short time I've become quite fed up with the monotonous threads of Barton town (You know, all the god foresaken vampires/slave/apocalypse/any other repetitive idea). I really look forward to being apart of this guild.

I'm sure there is more I could say but my head's a little scrambled right now so that'll have to wait.

I'm Nevi, Vice-Captain of the guild. I've never really been certain of why, because I'm not very good at working on plot or even running an RP, but it turns out I'm good at character development and organizing so here I am! (It probably doesn't hurt that I am Atrox's girlfriend...) You probably won't see me play too many characters because, like Cait, I do way too much at school and don't have enough free time.

Right now I am studying abroad in Ireland for the semester, so my internet access is even more limited, as I don't have internet access outside of school. But, I am having a great time and if you want to follow my trip feel free to read my blog, linked below in my signature as "Boudicca's Gift".

Generally, I attend college in New Rochelle, NY in the US and have decided to do something very silly and become a religion studies major. No one knows yet what I intend to do with this major (including me) but I'd really like to study the pre-christian religion of Ireland, and specifically the druids role in that society. I have NO IDEA if this is even possible, but we shall see.

I'll probably waitress for the rest of my life or something.

Greetings, salutations, and all that rot. Dorian Raker's the name, and I've bounced around the Gaia RP forums for a bit now. I started RPing back in the days before it had graduated very far beyond pen and paper games. I hung around in MU*'s for a bit and, while penning a novel, decided to wander into the Gaia RP forums as an easy way to kill a weekend.

Since then, I've been a part of a few fairly good Lit RPs, though most have been terrible piles of effluent ranging from "Angsty Teen Vampire Du Jour", "Plotless Forest/ RP surprise", "Nekos of the Apocalypse", and ever more pointless drivel.

Currently I'm on the weary homestretch of achieving my Bachelors in English and getting my first book published (happy dance). I've got precious little downtime though often enough it's spent penning words in one form or another, and I'm always looking for another wordsmithing hobby to keep me nice and limber.

Aside from all of that, I'm a leather-clad laureate; pen-slinging, guitar-wielding force of nature dwelling somewhere in America's pacific northwest. I enjoy arguments, inkstains, Irish whiskey, classic heavy metal, howling at the rain, well-forged steel, and watching candles burn to the very end.

Looking forward to seeing you around.

This is a great idea! I love reading these

Hey there, I'm a91nicole- but my name isn't nicole . Its Allison. Nicole is my middle name (you can still call me nicole though). Yes, I know its strange, but I created this username when I first got an AOL and was about ten and had this thing against my first name. Speaking of names, they fascinate me. I love their meanings, sounds, and the thoughts that occur to a person when they hear a name.

I've been rping for five years now, though I write on my own constantly. I started off in an Inuyasha rp w/ a very mary sue cat demon named Rynn who became a very non mary sue main character of a dark thread that had nothing to do w/ inuyasha other than the race. I have gone through many rps, most of them died right when they were about to get exciting and most of gaia rps piss me off. They focus on silly topics or the most boring, ununique characters ever.

I love exploring my characters minds, motives, and emotions. I have too many characters for my own good and I was attracted to LoSI because it is something I've never tried before and find intriguing. Not to mention the crew and members here are very welcoming and very not snobby. I enjoy singing, writing, drawing and flirting. I'm 17 and a junior in high school with hopes of attending the Savannah College of Art and Design and obtaining a degree in advertising design.

How long has this been here? How do I miss these things...

Hello, I'm Atrox Saint (or 'Trox, Atrox, Saint, or perhaps even Josh). I am the Captain and creator of LoSI (although it has certainly changed since that ridiculous little story off NSMV). As MU mentioned, LoSI has had many incarnations: Short Story, Jolt Forum, Gaia Guild, Gaia Guild 2.0.

I like well, written engaging roleplays of any genre, however I have a special, rabid place in my heart for super heroes. Magic-type stuff is good, too. I first started role-playing with MU in a little chunk of Awesome known as NSMV. That's "Nation States Martha's Vineyard." Basically, a bunch of us on the island divided the map into smaller countries and role-played ourselves as their leaders. My nation was "The Dark Nexus;" a land of rampant cloning and constant political uprisings. I moved to Gaia to join MU's "Pure Project." It was awesome like you wouldn't believe, but sadly it fell apart.

These days I watch this guild and my recruiting RP, "Unsung," while planning new projects that may never get off the ground (Wulfgang's Arena). I'm also involved in "Human Cloning" a slice of kickass from our own Mayday22. Of course, there's always a project or two cooking up in my head and you can expect another attempt at awesome to get off the ground every few weeks.

P.S. I also really like the word "awesome."

Hello. I am Wrong As Rain, or Brian, if you'd prefer a name. I'm not too fond of Brian, however. If I could choose, I'd probably be named something classy like Frederich, Dimitry or even Charlie. Mm. Charlie would be a great name.

Regardless, I've been roleplaying since... maybe 6-ish years ago (on and off, with great hiatuses that menace with spikes of videogames and null social interaction), starting my career on neopets. I believe my favorite characters were a ninja who wore red and mainly punched (with some exceptions for overly large shurikens[sp?] and daggers), and a cat-man, race akin to the main character of FF9, who wielded an oversized gladius and frequently spent time being "deep". Deep as in short monologues based on how he doesn't feel much emotion and likes the way tall grass looks on a windy day after dew has formed. He was in a constant state of detachment and looseness as if he had woken up not too long ago.

I remember how in grade 8 I wrote a story about a trainwreck off of a bridge into a canyon where the characters were possibly insane. They mostly hid in wreckage from possible murderers and hallucinated the bridge which no one could climb up as being covered in flesh, almost alive. I wrote this in something like 3 pages of size 29382390475 font and double space. It was called Rock Bottom or something. It was really, really bad. My teacher told me I was quite possibly the best writer in the school, and I should work on that. Now I want to be a psychologist or something.

My childhood was meh. My parents "separated" one year, and my best friend moved away maybe a year or two after. I wasn't huge, but I was kind of stocky (probably with my being the only to notice), and my hair was too long and I didn't shower much. Grade 7 or 8 was a sort of break-through time, where I started to do very well academically, compared to in the past. Now, I'm a steady 80-ish student without working at things. I should probably work at things, I'd likely get great marks.

I'm kind of shy. I don't like to put myself out there, except for a few times where I piss people off and then see how they react. I'd say it's pitiful if it weren't pitiful how I react to things.

I dream a lot. Sometimes dreams are lucid, sometimes I wouldn't even want to interrupt the natural flow, if I consistently could. I like to listen to people's dreams, kind of analyze them. Maybe it comes from how massive and complicated my dreams are (or just how much I remember about them) causing others' to seem basic. I wish I could tell what it means if I'm in a 'competition to decide the superior alternative of humanity', where I'm the only one like me, and I'm being swarmed by hoards of MM0021's and MM0022's who I have to flee or kill (predominantly by snapping their necks, punching them so hard that their skulls shatter or slam headfirst into the ground, again shattering their skulls.

Also, I hate most furries, Twilight, incorrect renditions of inefficient armour (as "boob-plates" = metal "cleavage" being torn and wedged into your chest, repressing your ability to breathe, leaving you to slowly suffocate, bleed out or bleed into your lungs, causing you to suffocate and it is never a good idea to leave your midriff, arms or crotch exposed), incorrect renditions of 'sexy' fantasy races (or overly erotic fantasy at all), vore and more.

Oh jeez I wrote a lot.

Greetings and salutations. Name is Phantom I live in NYC.

I'm the Captain of a guild alot like this one but that takes place in Gaia. Well it kind of died. I was a member of the guild quite a few years and wasn't always the Captain i inherited it.

So you can imagine my overwhelming delight when i bumped into you're lovely thread while grudgingly looking for a new guild to join. I hope to soon jump into the RP as soon as i finish deciding what angle i want to take with my sociopath villain. At this point i am just trying to figure out the degree.
