Hey I figured since this is a new board (in a way) and all that we should share a bit about ourselves. You know, kind of a house-warming kinda thing. Just post with something worth sharing about yourself, Rping career, whatever.
Um, I'll get the ball rolling.
Canadian here! In love with Rping. Have been doing it for about *counts on hand* Three? Two years. Something around that. I like to think I'm fairly good, but I enjoy to be challenged from the higher-ups as well. Generally I tend to be friendly, though I have also been known to be easily irritable at times. This is less so in RPing, more in IM conversations. I like to read, generally enjoy myself to study philosophy and the works... Anything other then that you will eventually learn.
Alright folks, your turn.

Migth as well.
Name: Kyle Gardner
Age: 15
I was on the original Xin before MJ closed it down. I am also on Arcane and Evalise and also planning on joining a couple more. I believe I have been RP'n for over a year but less than a year and a half. I can't remember. I hang out with a group of peopel who none of you know because I am in the most secret part of Canada. Nova Scotia, Dartmouth.
Just ot clear some things up. I don't say, Eh! or any other steriotypical bullshit you think we say. It is winter and no I am still cold. Jus ebecause I am up North doesn't mean I am immune to the cold temperature. I live with my father and his Fiance. I am not happy about the fiance part. I like video games. I am getting the Wii and already have a coupel systems.
That is all you need to know!

Name: Luca Nicholai Darcy Age: 18 Nationality: American Ethnicity: Scandinavian (Largely Norwegian) Weight: ~168lbs Height: 6'4" Build: Slender Hair: Brown with natural red lowlights. Length is approx. to the middle of my back. It can be down or pulled back in a ponytail, though more often in a ponytail due to ease of maintenance. Hobbies: Taiko drumming, writing(esp: prose poetry), philosophy, Aikido, CQC, collecting and learning the various uses of weapons, alt/goth scene, video games(esp: RPG & FPS; see also: Final Fantasy, Rainbow Six, and Xbox Live), rock climbing, horseback riding, and music(esp: violin, industrial, goth, rock, metal, swing, and electronica/dance; see also: :Wumpscut:, Collide, Bauhaus, Voltaire, Children of Bodom, Daft Punk, Assemblage 23, Android Lust, and Dimmu Borgir) Official occupation and previous jobs: Horsemanship instructor/counselor, Assistant ropes course management, and I also worked the 1st year of ValleyScare as vampire #21, position #4, scare #1. Other information:: I am trained and certified in First aid, CPR(adult and child), Water Rescue, and belaying as well as ropes/challenge course safety. I am well versed in German and ASL, have a good knowledge of French and Italian and obviously fluent in English. I have very limited knowledge of Spanish and Japanese as well. I am seriously dating a wonderful girl named Danielle and that has been going on a good 10months now and I am confident that I want to marry her (some day). She is an amazing musician (plays 7 instrument and sings), entrepreneurial fashion designer, and model. I go to a high school that is focused in Arts education as a literary major (that means I write) and am hoping to go to a college in the Chicago area for a degree in Modern Foreign Language Education. I reside in Minnesota, USA, but hope to leave here as soon as possible after college to live in the UK specifically the Camden, London, England area. RP History: I have been RPing for approximately six years now. I began Rping on the Yahoo! games chatrooms (yes, I was a T2er) then fell out of it for a couple years. Now I have returned with a better knowledge of how to build a storyline and am able to write much more fluently than just one-line posts. Though, as you may notice in the near future, that I have a habit of over-simplifying things and am not very good at descriptive detail, which is something of a setback. I'm more of a mono/dialog and prose poetry writer. I began my Rping again on XIN1 in July of 2006, I believe, and have since helped build one other semi-successful RPB (Evalise) and am currently undergoing another creation (an RPB based on the Suikoden game series). Weapon of Choice: Mindgames, manipulation, and knives. Fighting Style: A mixture of CQC, Aikido, and Tai Chi. Strengths: Knows how to use his body, quick of mind and body, patient, understanding, and physically strong (only due to the fact I know how to use my body correctly in situations) Weaknesses: Old-world romantic, vain, volatile temper, stubborn, cynical, sarcastic, and very shallow. ....OK, next!

yo.
Name: I am all that is Kyukaku, you want my real name its the same as the bio. Look it up you old fogies.
I was also a member of the old group on xin, as well as an admin on Evalise being Tenkuu. I only started RPing less than a year ago when I came to the old xin site, and I ended up sticking with it after meeting a bunch of the others in the cool club.
I'm a devout Karate practioner among other martial arts studies such as Kickboxing and Kung Fu. I'm a hardcore rocker and I enjoy long walks on the beach.

Post by leaf on Dec 25, 2006 4:34:36 GMT 1
So i posted a reply and it said no and made me log back in so time to retype yay! American and in the US Army, currently stationed in Korea. I've been in Korea for over two years and will be back in the states in September. A few months after arriving, found the other Xin flashes and then RPB1. Joined as Leaf and this is my first and longest lasting forum, the others crashed in burned. I am rather shy with new people and things so it was a slow start for me, especially playing Leaf as he was. Eventually I got the hang of typing posts then....the Army kept me busy with long hours. So to put simply, I'm glad to start back at square one again. Heh, though I'll probably mess up this second chance as well. Anywho...experience. Only forum experience is here and what i picked up in my two years as Leaf. Other rping...been playing tabletop for ten years, DnD, White Wolf, and some others. Also have a few years of LARPing under my belt. I used to read alot, especially when the Army did not allow me to have electronics. But now, I can't sit around and read a book though I can sit and read a forum all day. Seems i like creating and seeing people create their own stories. As for real life...don't have much of one. Just waiting to get out of Korea and the Army. Will probably go to college, using the Army's money. Not sure what I will be going for but I don't care. Would rather be a bum than be in the military again Also, I tend to ramble once i manage to get up the nerve to speak. Guess i try and say everything before my speaking goes on cooldown. And...I think that's it

Name: Ryan William Zimmerer Age: 20 Nationality: American Ethnicity: Mostly German, with a hint of Irish. Weight: 210 Pounds Height: 6'2" Build: Average Hair: Long brown reaching a point just below my shoulders. Hobbies: Few time for hobbies lately, but RPing, cooking, reading, gaming, writing short stories/songs/poems and such, and chatting. Official occupation and previous jobs: I work at a Target, on the sales, floor, specializing in the Electronics and Entertainment sections. I've got no particular title, but I'm more well-versed in my knowledge of the subject matter than those who work there who DO carry said title. Before that, I used to work in construction during summers. Other information- I live in a little apartment in the middle of the Austin, Texas ghetto with two of my good friends from high school. I work and pay the utilities while they go to the school and chip in what they can, when they can. I have a girlfriend of about two months now. And I'm working over Christmas break, so, until I go home for four days starting Jan 5, I'm pretty much all alone here. RP History- Oh snap, *counts fingers* about eight years, starting in 6th grade to about Senior year, I played in wrestling RP's known as e-feds. Throughout that time, I participated in about four different feds, winning many of the 'title belts' in most, if not all, of them. The longest running site was the HWA, in which I had won every single belt my character was qualified to win, becoming one of only about three "Grand Slam" champions. After my senior year, I found Xin RP, and began to play in this, vastly different style of roleplaying. From here on out, I've participated in a number of boards, the longest running being RP1, and as of now am a fairly prominent member of three boards, including this one. Weapon of Choice: The pen, as they say, will always be mightier than the sword. Fighting Style: I don't pretend to know martial arts. My fighting style is generally consists firstly of witty remarks and logical speeches that keep people from wanting to fight me int he first place, but if blows have to happen, I tend to just take the first few shots to scare the other guy, then throw them into a wall or something. Strengths: Smart and quicker than my size lets on. Very good reaction time, good manual dexterity. Weaknesses: I have no weaknesses.

Been called many things, I guess. Tanya/Tonya/Tangya...but, my name would be the first one. (Last one was just some old babysitters from waaaay back when's way of pronouncing it... The Principle has met both. ) Blah, anyway, I'm from Canada...Saskatchewan, near a little bitty town called McLean. Saskatchewan = Hard to remember how to spell, easy to draw. xD Anyhoo. Right. I've been in the RP business for about three and a half years. Started in Yahoo Chat rooms doing little more than *walks in looks at so-n-so, sits down on a stool and orders a bloodwyne* xD Ah, so funny. Rapidly progressed after that, hit up a forum called Fate of the Planet, did some big-ass RPs there. Been on the old Xin for a year and a half or so...never was really quiet about such spats as we had not long ago, there. I still remember when a couple members were banned over...well, silly things, in my opinion. I was told by (can't remember who, mebbe it was MJ -Shrug.-) that as a new and 'unnoticed' person, I should be quiet. ^^; It didn't stop me. But, yes... Here we are today, and I'm happy that it's a bit less than three weeks now until our Admin is back out here. Whoop!

Post by Director Troutman on Dec 25, 2006 5:20:42 GMT 1
Alright, I suppose I can tell you SOME things about me.
Name: Liam Paul Alexander MacMillan
Age: 21
Nationality: Scots/English
Ethnicity: European
Weight: 210 Pounds
Height: 5'10"
Build: Powerful, muscular, some beer memories.
Hair: Dark blond, usually with some form of color through it, currently growing.
Hobbies: Being 21...Hell, I go out drinking, play pool, talk with people, come back and RP here, talk to other people, and then work.
Official occupation and previous jobs: Bartender, though I will soon be branching into manual labour and its many forms.
Other information- Father of one, a four-year-old son, and all-round badass. No, I'm not kidding, either...About to spend six months in Canada starting Jan. 13th, so my online time will be somewhat altered, but not much...If you need to know something, try asking me, minions....
RP History- RPB1, first ever. Tried RPB2 but found no enjoyment there, and other than that, now running Hircine High.
Weapon of Choice: -shrugs- Depends if I need to use one. I can swing anything from bats, hockey sticks and golf clubs with a hell of a force, but I'll use anything at hand to fuck someone up if it's needed.
Fighting Style: Trained in Aikido and Kickboxing, but rarely implement it. I'm a brawler when the situation calls for it. I'd rather knock someone out with a single big punch than waste time implementing my martial arts...
Strengths: Wit, being a Brit I was given the genetic gift of a silver tongue. Fairly impressive intelligence, a level-headed nature, highly protective.
Weaknesses: Remarkably defensive of family, as Paul can verify. I RE-registered with AIM just to snap at him for a remark he made....Short temper, somewhat impatient, remarkably withdrawn aside from the people I choose to let in.

Name: Kyle Garrett Age: 14 Nationality: American Ethnicity: Irish for the most part Weight: About 105 Pounds Height: Dunno. Build: Average I guess...*shrug* Hair: Brown. Hobbies: No noteable ones. Official occupation and previous jobs: Student, might start working at a pizzeria soon. Other information- Not going to tell you. RP History- I've only RPed on one board other than this and the former Xin RP1, having nothing to do with this one's subject material. Weapon of Choice: I don't need to use one, so I don't. Fighting Style: I've recently started taking boxing, but my "fighting" style usually consists of hitting the other guy until a) somebody breaks it up, b) the other guy decides he doesn't want to fight anymore, or c) I manage to get a standing RNC on them until either "b" or temporary loss of conciousness occurs (the only time I did that, the result was "b"). Strengths: Dunno, really. Guess I can hit kind of hard. *shrug* Weaknesses: Still need to work on handspeed, not very patient.

I really dont enjoy fighting, and I try to avoid it as much as I can. Being as tall as I am, and as passive, Im a pretty friendly person, and only tick off a few girls.

Name: Richard Alexander Trithardt, Yes, I'm aware my initials spell Rat.
Age: 17.
Nationality: Canadian.
Ethnicity: English, French, Austrian, and about 5 others.
Height: 6'1
Weight: 170 lbs.
Build: Strong Legs, slightly over sized calves, medium strength upper body.
Hair: Dark brown. Usually hidden under an 'I am Canadian' Hat.
Hobbies: Writing, Sparring, Taekwondo, Poomse's, fitness.
Occupation: Highschool/delivery boy/dish cleaner.
RP History: I first learnt of Rp'ing through Gaia, then progressed onwards after finding it boring. This started around the age of 12-13. Since then I've been trying to find smaller boards with more experienced players to RP with, and finally ended up here.
Fighting style: While my only traditional training is in Taekwondo, I've basically dismantled everyone in my Dojang when it came to anything goes. From watching allot of MMA shows I've picked up a bit of Jujitsu, I personally work on my boxing with a Wavemaster, and I've always been naturally aggressive in Wrestling, despite never participating in it.
Strengths: I want to put on a few pounds, to add to my power, however my kicks and punches are strong through a simple formula: SpeedXMass=Power. Having a fondness for fighting I've picked up allot of in ring experience.
Weaknesses: Flatulence.
