Bio






About Me








Name: Ben
Username: The one and only. Dare I say?
Age: 30
Ethnicity: Mixed
Sex: Male
Religion: Christian (Nondenominational)
Languages: English, Japanese (Semi-fluent & learning), I also know some Scots Gaelic, Quenyan (Elvish), and Miccosukee (My tribal tongue)
Relationship Status: Single (Though generally unavailable unless I find I really enjoy someone).






Current Projects/Freelance work

  • I am a voice talent and script writer for Faerun History
  • I have a much smaller personal Youtube channel that I use to make videos on various subjects. Only been making videos for 2 years, but it's growing!
  • I'm the host of a Science Fiction & Fantasy Podcast where I interview authors of the genre.




Interests (Includes but is not limited to)

  • Writing/Reading (Love writing and I own too many books)
  • Video Games (Been a gamer for close to 23 years now)
  • Working Out/Martial Arts (Wing Chun/Oyama Karate mostly. Some historical swordplay as well.)
  • History (Military History is my specialty)
  • Zoology
  • Art (Mostly Illustrations. Used to be good. Am picking it back up)
  • Voice Acting/Singing
  • Tabletop Gaming (Started late in the game. Been at it for 3 years. I was the kid who bought the monster manuals and D&D books just for the lore for the longest time. I've played 3.5e, 5e, Star Wars D20, Edge of the Empire, PF, and PF2.)
  • Weaponry of all kinds
  • Anime (mostly action/shonen. DBZ & YYH being my favorites)
  • Movies (Action/War/Drama films being my go-to)
  • Music (Rock of all kinds, as well as historical folk songs, sea shanties, pub songs, a bit of classical music, etc)
  • Guitar (am learning to play, but being left handed makes it challenging)
  • There's more but if you care enough you can PM me :P




Roleplay F.A.Q.

  • Fantasy, Sci Fi, and Historical are my genres. Fantasy being my favorite and Sci Fi/Historical being close seconds.
  • Advanced / Nation / 1x1 / Casual (only in certain circumstances)
  • I generally write at the 'Advanced Level' meaning 4+ Paragraphs with good grammar.
  • I am usually busy with many projects and RPs, but if you wish to do a 1x1 with me, you'll need to present your case. Those I already do it with have my trust as a Roleplayer.
  • I love many, many fictional universes so me trying to list them all is an effort in futility!

Now I can FINALLY finish my Krogan! Woo! Let's check the IC
*14 posts*

...
Sure, I might have gone overboard with saying that he threw a hissy fit, but two wrongs don't make a right, Poohead.

True, so you shouldn't be acting like this.

Isn't PMing about him the ultimate way of talking behind his back? That's my belief. If I put it here, it's right in front of him if he wishes to see it. That idea kinda opens a whole can of worms though. It means that everyone's been talking behind everyone's back which actually isn't such a crazy idea in today's topsy-turvy society.

It would be more accurate to say that PMing is more for keeping the streets clean, but does nothing for morality. I once knew a GM's sister who PMs me bad things about the GM. It's not pretty, but it's even more insidious. At the end, no one likes her because it shows in other ways. Probably because someone else PMed bad things about her? Anyway, you should see the pattern.

But I guess I'll have to grudgingly buy into this system of shit talking behind everyone's back rather than laying it out in the open if I want to continue in this RP. While I'm not going to shit talk in PM... I guess the good thing is that the streets will be clean again. I'll be doing my part to hose it down with water and bleach. *Puts away suitcase and hat*


The point is, is that I cannot control what you say in PM but I do have an obligation to keep things nice here. But you could solve all of the problem by not talking shit in general anywhere, if it bothers you. Which is what I suggest.

Now, let us get on with the RP.

@PrivateVentures I'm a huge Clint Eastwood fan and I would like to say that's most probably Man with No Name, haha.
@PrivateVenturesI know you are new sir, but seeing as I believe this is 'High casual' I am inclined to believe that, even with a simple reply post, you need to write at least a paragraph, preferably two. But of course, it is up to @BlackSam3091 to decide.
Perhaps if I have time^^
I LOVE Atlatls! They're so fun to say! Addle addle
@BlackSam3091Finishing my Krogan tonight.
I've had a hectic weekend, but he'll be up for review!
@Sypherkhode822Sorry for the delay. I'll get a post tonight for ya!

You're taking too much credit for yourself. It's obvious that I'd singlehandedly scared him off.

Way I see it though, we didn't lose much. That guy views frickin' human beings as boring despite it being shown countless times that humans work. As a result, he'd be very limited not just in character creation. And when I brought it up he throws a hissy fit and stomps off? Not a trait I'd want in a fellow role player.

Sure, I wasn't being very flattering, but c'mon, I have no idea how else to say it - I'd even tried previously to show the amazing things you can do with normal people. In any case, he needed a wake up call. The truth stings, even when it's given out with the best of intentions.

If you think I'm harsh, others would have thrown him right out and showered him with salty vitriol and vulgarity. I was being kind when I went with the metaphorical euphemism.

But that's never enough isn't it? People just want to hear what they want to hear. That everything is fine and dandy and they're perfect.

In any case, I got my suitcase and hat at the ready in case I got kicked out for this. Won't be the first time. I'm a Raven for a reason. Caw!

Whether or not what you say is true, I do my best to be lenient and kind to people who are in my RP, and I expect that from my players towards each other, and towards prospective RPers looking around. If you want to complain about someone, or...essentially make the above post, do it in private and not in the OOC.
He did not throw a 'hissy fit.' He simply said he was leaving. You're the one who is throwing one now, behind his back about him. I will not tolerate that.
I enjoy you as an RPer Darkraven, but atm I must tell you to cease and desist.

I will acknowledge that you were trying to make TFF feel better, and I agree she isn't to blame. But still, do it in a PM if you feel the need to shit talk someone to do it.

@rush99999Remember it is someone's home, with servants walking around that will report stuff like "these Gnomes are putting spikes in the walls" so keep it light for Hobnob at least.
