[/list] Other Information: Age: 31 Sex: Male Gender: Male Occupations - Massage Therapist RP Experience - 15 years plus, started in Palladium Books RIFTS setting, went to D&D 2nd Ed, explored numerous systems and settings since. Started roleplaying in Yahoo Role-Playing Games chat rooms and Yahoo User Rooms at age 14, moved to Arts & Entertainment dubbed the realm Ayenee. Got into Para/Casual to Advanced at that point, got involved in Waterdeep MUD and eventually became a Role-Play Teacher/Instructor there. Eventually found myself in Star Wars Roleplaying Game Board/Expansion of the Force 2.0, became a long-running member of the community and became Grand Master of the Jedi Order, took over leadership of Wraith Squadron during the Protectorate War. Eventually the RP died, but it lasted for roughly a decade. Discovered the Guild a couple years ago, and jumped in feet first. Been part of many games or groups here, and made a number of friends. Some have not seemed to return, but some have. I consider myself a decent writer, most people want to read my works, whether story or RP. I hope to continue entertaining and providing good material for others to read and to work with. I consider myself a decent GM, and generally am hands-off, and like to let my players to be creative. I can, however, take players by the hand and lead them around if they need someone to play daddy. I don't like doing it though. I'm pretty old-school when it comes to GMing. I work off the top of my head, as I expect my players to monkey-wrench things so I can't account for everything... so I don't try. I'll base things off of what they do/say. Of course i can work with a series of plot points and keep things moving, but I find p[layers respond best when they have freedom. My schedule can be a little wonky, but I'm usually around for RPing. I like action, plot, adventure, and fun, but I also like detail, and adherence to world-conventions, accuracy, believability. I'm pretty creative. Don't give me anything you don't intend for me to use, or adapt to a use you didn't expect. I haven't run that many games here because I feel I would intimidate a lot of people, and I'm also a little nervous about it. I love 1x1's - not for smut (which is fun, but just for the sake of it gets old), but for development, interaction, and keeping a story smaller and more manageable. Feel free to hit me with PM's if you want to RP. I always respond to PM's, if I can, and usually quickly.
