Bio

19 | M | US PACIFIC

Hi, hello! I go by YankeeSamurai. I'm drawn to works about ordinary joes dropped into extraordinary situations, and I want to get back into forum roleplay.

I started roleplaying on forums prior to discovering other mediums, like Garrysmod and Space Station 13. Most of my recent roleplay has been on Garrysmod (no, not DarkRP). Unfortunately, the best parts of a Garrysmod RP community demand near-daily activity, which I can't sustain anymore. Here, I aim to pick a special thread or two, get involved, and satiate my roleplay fix without the need to set aside entire afternoons at a time.

Near-future, dystopian, cyberpunk, postapoc, starship crew, military, and medical roleplays are all settings I'm into. I most enjoy a gritty, grimy, and grounded slant on things, but I'm not so much about realism as I'm about believability, if that makes sense. Definitely let me know if there's an open roleplay along those lines, I'd love to check it out!

I like to hope that I'm a half decent writer, but since I do struggle to add length to my posts, I'll probably stick to the Casual board for the time being ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Exactly what it says on the tin!
For example, The synths were annoying, but the guitar solo was amazing. 7/10

It's like your average what-are-you-listening-to thread, but with more discussion. Be nice :)

Just to start us off, I'll put two songs on the table.

Beneath the Brine, by The Family Crest
An Honest Man, by Fantastic Negrito
Shit, this is great. Any room for one more?
Ohh yes, thank you for that list. Urban legends and mythical creatures are fair game, I suppose. Never roleplayed with those themes, but I definitely would not be opposed to it.
I broke down and bought Tales from the Borderlands :P


I haven't played, but I know the title song for Episode 2 will get stuck in your head...
