o look a newbie

[quixotically]

HELLO. I'm Mala and ........... actually I know several of you already, but hi, it's probably been forever. I have recently been accepted into your game and I'm looking forward to jumping in headfirst here after I sleep because it's nearing 10am and I still haven't slept wow! 'u' You can all find me on plurk at Malathyne or on AIM at whitepoof. My plurk's currently friends only, but I want to add you people, so come on over and send a friend request if you wanna!

The character I'm bringing in is Courier Six from Fallout: New Vegas ... but just call her Elle, she's going to pretend that she's a harmless little thing anyway. Um. For those unfamiliar with the canon, the Courier is a malleable protag -- like the Dragonborn from Skyrim and Shepherd from Mass Effect. This means that the Courier is a character that the player gets to build them literally from the ground up -- personality, name, history, dialogue options, skillset, etc. Mix in the fact that F:NV is a sandbox game andddd well it's hard to summarize a Courier in a nutshell.

BUT I'M GONNA TRY ANYWAY. Elle here has no memories prior to about a year ago thanks to taking two bullets to the face. Her build is based on Perception, Charisma, and Luck, which means that she tries to solve problems by sheer force of personality, lots of words, and critical hits. Uhhhh. ... Yeah idek. Here's a really long app.

I never know how to end these things so uh here have a gif.

Hey, Mala. I'm Wizera, a mod here at ToS and player of two characters:

1. Diana "so not the Cainite messiah" from Vampire: The Masquerade
2. Garmay Zaya, an OC from the world of Legend of Zelda

Welcome to game!

[quixotically]

Hello, modly!

............... mo3om a Zelda OC you say

[diana_abel]

Indeed. LoZ OC. She's quite odd, I'll warn you.

[quixotically]

Bring it on. :> I once delved facefirst into Majora's Mask lore in order to make a game, so.

[hypospraying]

Hi, Mala! I'm Megan and I play Nurse Christine Chapel from Star Trek AOS, Clara Oswald from Doctor Who, and Captain Hook and Ruby Lucas from Once Upon a Time. Welcome to the game!

[quixotically]

Hallo, hallo! Thank you. ♥ I must say, you've got a great array of characters there. :3! I look forward to meeting and playing against them all.

[feellikeibelong]

Hi Mala, I'm Anne and I have two characters here, this one being H.G. Wells from Warehouse 13, and my other being an OC vampire named Charlotte Howard (inlovewiththedarkness).

I've heard of F:NV but haven't played it. Though I've totally played Skyrim to pieces. But anyway! I'm always up for tossing my girls at new people and new situations. Both of them are polite and nice so long as people are polite and nice in return.

You can find me on plurk at buriedandreset.

[quixotically]

Mmmmmm, Skyrim. ♥ I highly recommend F:NV, but, well. That's a given, I'm sure, LOL

Luckily, Elle defaults to nice and polite with people that she doesn't know, so it's looking like we've got a good start already. :3b I'll be getting an intro post up sometime tonight or tomorrow, so we'll get to see where things take us then!

[feellikeibelong]

Skyrim is wonderful. Ahaha yes I do believe that is a given! XD I'll have to look into it.

That certainly sounds like a good starting place! Manners and politeness tend to get one everywhere!

[thelastmonster]

Hi Mala!

I'm Ryah and I play Anakin Skywalker from Star Wars and this lady here - Lady Fire from the Graceling series. She has a permissions meme here if you could have a look.

I'm not sure how our characters can meet up, but I do look forward to plotting with you!

I'm shanklander and you can definitely friend me.

[quixotically]

Hello! I'll pop over to the permissions post shortly, np. <3

Aaaaaah Anakin. I've spied a little on your Anakin because I've got Luke-mun on my plurk timeline and I occasionally poke my head into her posts and I can say I'm excited to bounce off of you /)w(\.

... tbh I'm kind of staring at Lady Fire's memorythings. That's going to be interesting with li'l miss amnesiac over here. mo3om I will expand more in the permission post itself.

I have no doubt that we'll figure out something to jumpstart CR. :3

[hero_with_no_fear]

Oh my goodness *blushes* thanks for the complement! It's good to know someone thinks I do a good job with my characters.

I don't know much about Fallout: New Vegas, except that my husband has been playing Fallout 3 the last couple weeks and I think they are connected ... somehow? Correct me if I'm wrong! So basically post nuclear-war/apocalyptic world with lottsa radiation everywhere. Right?

I'd love to work things out with Fire and Elle, and Elle's memory. Fire would love to help. We're friends now on Plurk so we shall most definitely have to plot!

[artistwithasickness]

Hi Mala! I'm Arma and welcome to Throne of Shadows.

I play Angel from BtVS and Devi D from JTHM. (A vamp and an pregame heavy ki fighter). I look forward to playing with you!

[quixotically]

Hi, Arma! :] Thanks for the welcome. ♥

I look forward to meeting your people! I am only peripherally aware of BtVS like a shameful person, but what I do know tells me that they could swap a lot of stories about crazy shenanigans they've gotten into.

[artistwithasickness]

No shame, no shame. We've even anyway, I only know of Fallout verses having played it. But Angel loves telling stories and Devi collects them, so swapping there shall be, sooner or later.

[brains_before_bullets]

Hey!

Nice to meet you, I'm Leon.

Currently, I play Hercules Hansen from Pacific Rim, Col. Everett Young from Stargate Universe, and Jax Teller from Sons of Anarchy

My Plurk is youngflamelion.

Welcome to the game.

[quixotically]

Hi, Leon! :3

I'm afraid I know very little about these canons but I'm really looking forward to getting to know your guys. ♥ I've gone ahead and added you on plurk, too!

[notrosesshadow]

Hi Mala!

I'm Al and I only have Martha Jones here from Doctor Who. She's saved the world a few times, once all by herself, and she has a radio show about it.

You can almost always reach me on AIM at notrosesshadow if you want to plot. If I'm not there, just leave a message and I'll see it when I get back.

Welcome to Throne of Shadows!

[quixotically]

Hi, Al. :3 It's nice to meet you!

♥♥♥ Marthaaaaaaaa. Elle can't claim to have done anything nearly as impressive as Martha's done, but she's got a whole slew of accomplishments under her belt all the same. It'd be great if they got together and bonded over their achievements at some point. :3b

They could also bond over medical-y-things, too! Elle's had a natural knack for it ever since she can remember (which, to be fair, isn't much), but she's also never had formal training, it's all been self-taught or learned at random from books/magazines/the occasional doctor. Maybe we could do a thing where Martha teaches her things. :3!

[notrosesshadow]

Ooo! Sounds cool! Unfortunately, Martha's sort of dealing with a PTSD episode thanks to the Master showing up, so that may be a while. But eventually yes!

[somepartsbroken]

Greetings and Salutations!

I'm Koko! a resident creeper! I play Allen Francis Doyle whom is from Angel the Series, a cute little drunken irishman. And an oc vampire who is stupid tall and from Vampire the Masquerade! It is a pleasure to make your aquantance!

[quixotically]

Hello, Koko! (Sorry sorry for the delay, oops.)

Oh, man. Elle stands at five foot even. It'll be like meeting a giant for her.

[somepartsbroken]

No worries~!

Dorian stands at 6'2 without shoes, with his boots they put him up to 6'3-4ish. So yush, it will be tons of fun!

[oldfashionedhero]

Mala, I'm running super late on welcoming new players but I'm Sam and I play Steve Rogers. I'm looking forward to having you in game and playing against Elle.

[quixotically]

Psh, late shmate ♥ I don't mind. Thanks for coming to say hi, anyway!

I'm looking forward to meeting Steve. I've never actually been able to play with one before, so I'm really excited!
