Hey, I'm new, if that wasn't obvious. My background is more in pen and paper rpgs (how do you fight without dice? o.o;; ) but I've done the odd forum rpg before. A friend helped me write up this character a loooooong time about but I never got around to using her. I was going through all my old resource files and found this character and thought I'd actually play with her. A friendly PM pointed me to this forum to say hello. My character goes by Liquid for short but you can just call me (the player) Juri.

Welcome welcome! Dice are a chaotic way to fight anyway, lol. Here we just write out combat, win or lose In Character doesn't matter, since the winner of the battle depends on who can outwrite the other person.

Anyways... be careful, people here are absolutely insane, but friendly as hell. If you need anything throw me a PM or IM me!

hello~

And yeah, this place is infested with crazy lunatics. Ahhh but it's nice seeing new faces, and new characters o_O

I really like yours.

Cool, always nice to get a friendly response! I look forward to playing here.

(and crazy is fun, right? <<)

Well, I've finished Juri duty. You're approved to play, kid. Don't powergame, or we'll find you and garrote you while you use the toilet.

Welcome to the forums. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. We've got a pretty solid, open community here, and it's always nice to see a fresh face. Just beware: we frotteurize.

Hi, new person. Welcome to Althanas.

Zook is going to be spending a long time in pun hell for that one, don't worry.

Eww pun! Lol.

Yeah, crazy is good... don't worry.

Hiya ^^. Welcome, from a fellow newbie!

Have to say, yours is an interesting profile. Was a great read ^^.

Alright, before this degenerates into one big clusterfuck of people lol'ing over poison cookies and how you shouldn't feed so and so and a big round of butt-pats that just makes you want to kill everyone that's ever lived let me welcome you and say that I read your profile and it was damn good.

That pause after her data listing her as bisexual was classic.

Le pauvre.

There, I fixed it for you. :D

Liquid Ice
02-18-08, 05:21 PM
Hehe... I do have to admit, this style of profile over the D&D styled "Field:Value" does leave a lot more room for personal amusement...

Godhand is sore because nobody gave him any poisoned cookies or butt-pats when he joined..

Grittings and welcome to Althanas, stranger! Hope you enjoy yourself here!

hihi

*gives cute kitty hugs*

I hope you have fun. I came from Pen and Paper RPGs as well. Mostly D&D and Heavy Gear^^ Althanas is fun as long as you take it easy and there are plenty of people to help.

I know I can speak for him when I say that I assure you that he's not.

Welcome to Althanas, Liquid Ice.

Ack! I hath been double neko-glomped!

You definitely got a flair that will help you around here. Don't worry too much about the arguing around here, its usually followed up by a rousing round of "Kiss and make up."

*Glomps alongside Jineh and Hikariangel*

I know I already welcomed ya, but welcome again. I just took a look at your solo and wow, you definalely are a good writer! Welcome again to the boards.

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 01:04 AM
Thanks, I must say it really is a pleasant change to get such a nice welcome. I look forward to RPing with the people here, first I just have to satisfy my own perfectionist streak and complete the story of how she ended up here...

Edit: Gack! Triple neko-glompage! I'm going to OD on cuteness!

Welcome, welcome from your friendly neighborhood Bazaar Kitty! Don't forget to grab some gears you missed out on at the local Bazaar near you! (Bonus points for you if you actually say where on Althanas the Bazaar you go to is, although no one knows what those points are for!)

I ... am not entirely sure what you're talking about. But I must thank you for not glomping me as well. Four might break my poor mortal brain.

AdventWings
02-19-08, 01:30 AM
Aye, that's what I figured. However, I'd glompzed you if I had a catgirl account on here...

;)

EDIT: Pudge is from a PC game mod, Nyan. :D

This is how you people haze, isn't it!? ;_;

No, the hazing is paying the judges to score your first quest with a 0.

Hasn't happened in years...

Karuka
02-19-08, 10:33 AM
Nah, don't worry about hazing. Unless Artifex comes back, and then he will attempt to eat you.

Why? I dunno. But he does.

Hello and welcome to Althanas, where fun lurks in every shadow, and wierdness prances throughout the streets. If you mind your head you'll have a blast.

*bows and offers a dogy bag*

"Here's a few homemade goodies. And don't worry, since I have no need for slaves, they are not poisioned in anyway."

*pauses thoughtfuly before shaking her head slightly*

"And, since you've been glomped quite enough, I'll give you a break. But I can't promise that Karyna's wolf friend won't jump on you if you have any interesting scents for him to investigate."

actually, this is kinda the form of hazing around here...unless I'm new enough to havn't experienced it yet. But anyway, we do have the tendency to give newbies pleanty of wierdness in their welcome threads.

Karuka
02-19-08, 10:11 PM
Now, now, Kary.

Just because our greeting ritual is friendly does not make it an unique form of hazing.

MoonRunner
02-19-08, 10:13 PM
haha, that's what we say. jk!

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 10:16 PM
lol... I was just kidding about the hazing you know.

BlackAndBlueEyes
02-19-08, 10:25 PM
Ya'll're gonna' scare her away if you keep this up, ya' know. If we're going to properly lose her, let her challenge me to a pagoda fight. Those people have a tendency to disappear during or shortly after...

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 10:26 PM
lol, I actually wouldn't mind taking you up on that fight. It would be interesting to see how Liquid would handle herself in a duel, she really has no concept of formalized fighting outside gladiatorial things.

It's pretty close, really.

BlackAndBlueEyes

I'm the fucking Pagoda Whore right now, so if you challenged me, I'd probably take it up despite the three battles I already have. ^^

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 10:30 PM
Hm. Fighting to impress a crowd/rich men watching she understands. Things more along the lines of martial arts sparring simply for the sake of improving one's skill would leave her rather confused.

BlackAndBlueEyes
02-19-08, 10:33 PM
Well, I have a carnival full of ghosts that could watch us kick the living daylights out of each other...

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 10:40 PM
Sounds like a date. I'll post the challenge shortly, nearly done with ye olde solo.

Call me J
02-19-08, 10:42 PM
Now that Godhand has given you his endorsement, I think its okay for me to say hi to you.

Actually, I probably just should have said hi earlier. Anyhow, welcome to Althanas. Now that I've posted in your thread, you can ignore all the other people who posted here, because they're not as great as me.

Liquid Ice
02-19-08, 11:09 PM
lol thanks.. I think?
