Oh, my goodness,

[Moonbird]

I'm so sorry about the awfulness of my character post so far; I copied and pasted it from one I made a while back and now, reading it back, it's awful, isn't it? Don't read it! I'll rewrite it in a tick!

And my name is Lily, I have been roleplaying with the best of them for a good few years, graphic artist and web designer, student, mathematics girl and hater of cliches. It's lovely to meet you all.

Probably won't get any people reading this (who reads introduction threads? Nobody!) but it's worth a shot.

[Tainted Bushido]

Have you been on Althanas previously or is this your first time? Either way, welcome (back).

[Moonbird]

Alas, I only recently found it. I generally on private boards, where they pick the best six roleplayers they know and run a game kind of thing, so most affiliation and other advertisements don't get to me. And thank you kindly for the welcome!

[Tsukiko]

I read them^^

hihi hope you have fun.

and don't worry too much about profiles. they don't have to be good reading as long as we know what a character can and can't do.

[Moonbird]

Thank you! I'm sure I will, this looks like a great place.

I am a perfectionist; a serious one...it's been diagnosed by a doctory person and everything. Some kind of OCD. So my usual character posts are great long works of fiction in their own right!

[Tainted Bushido]

Sounds like you Emerald Hind, Zephyraih, and Letho should get a room ;)

You all suffer the same flaw.

[Moonbird]

Perfectionism? It's definitely spreading...I think it must be contagious!

[Moonbird]

Oh; quick question! Can we have more than one character at a time?

[Slayer of the Rot]

Yes.

[Moonbird]

Thank you very much; I don't need to wrack my brain choosing now.

[Tainted Bushido]

Just make sure each has a seperate account.

[Moonbird]

Kay, that's fine!

Intro threads are fairly popular here. Especially if you're female... baby. Lily, huh? That's a nice name. My name isn't Cyrus, so you can call me whatever you like.

That aside, hi! Perfectionism will either make Althanas your favorite or least favorite place in the universe. You will never score 100 on a thread, so if you're kind of OCD about that, you might go insane. But you'll definitely have fun if you aren't too zany.

[Moonbird]

Heh, thanks. It's actually Lily-Belle, ugh, which led to me being called the fairy-girl for most of my life. Plus, my surname is, well, even worse. I'll probably end up calling you staff-person and asking you lots of annoying questions. Hurrah.

100 may be impossible but I can damned well try!

[Ataraxis]

Lily? I have a fixation on that name - go figure!

If you're OCD about round numbers though, that can be arranged. Only kink is if you get a 79... yep, rounded down.

And don't worry, over two thirds of Althanas has an OCD of some sort. It'd be weird otherwise.

[Moonbird]

I guess. I have several, mostly inherited. Damned grandparents! I'm okay with round numbers - I actually prefer odd - but if I get a lower score than I thought I should, I freak out and start going over every word. Which takes ages.

[AdventWings]

Haha. Apparently, this is your first time on Althanas. We are Intro-Thread whores.

*Reads every single one of them*

Anyways, welcome to Althanas! We're glad to see someone so eager to write. And don't worry about your condition. Us Judges in particular are a strong case of Grammar OCD. (At least, I think I do.)

Also, if you are ever in need of an item you forgot to add to your inventory, stop by the Regional Bazaar and grab your gears!

[BlackAndBlueEyes]

Lily... I once wrote a radio drama that had an evil white mage named Lily.

But grittings and welcome nonetheless!

[Valentine]

Hi, Lily Pad.

[Moonbird]

Thanks all! And valentine, that is the nickname I hate worst of all. Congratulations on finding it...

Heh, I have no YIM. I really should get it one o'these days, all my RP friends seem to have it...

[A Nony Mouse]

welcome to Althanas :)

[Moonbird]

Thanks!

And forgot to mention. The judges here seem really helpful and enthusiastic with their concrit. Not like some places I've seen; they just go 'Good, 7/10' mostly. Best I've seen.

[Godhand]

You should probably post in that thread to let Cyrus know the profile is done.

[Empyrean]

I think you and I will get along just fine. :) Trust me, I'm the same way with posts - as are several other people here. It's all good.

Have fun!

[Moonbird]

Thanks very much! And I have; was going to but a friend arrived so I had to run that very second...damned social life.

[AdventWings]

Ooh, be careful about that. Althanas, as it is in our current state, is just as potent as Virtual Crack.

We try our best to compete for your attention with WoW. ;)

Prepare to kiss good bye to your social life! Mwahahaha!!!
