Did you know that Dante's inferno is called a divine comedy because things work out for the protagonist? Back in the day, the only two genres were comedy and drama. The only difference was that in a comedy, the protagonist is better off at the end, and a drama is the opposite. So that's why a story about going through hell can still be considered a comedy, even if it's not funny.
Name:
Broken Promise, BP, Boss
Age:
Old enough to know better, too young to care. (that is to say 30's)
Preferred RPs:
I Prefer to make my own, but will occasionally join something if it looks interesting. I'll join just about anything so long as it isn’t overly edgy/sweet, though it's rare for me to do. I don't do 1x1s too often either.
Preferred Roles:
I tend to play adorable characters everyone wants to befriend or proper assholes everyone wants to stay away from. I try not to play moral paragons or prime evils.
RP Conquests:
I've completed quite a few RP's off site, but most of them are on private forums or have simply been lost to the ravages of server crashes. As for stuff here, I'm sure everyone who sees me post in the off topic sections has seen me find an excuse to talk about Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage. It's a project that took over 4 years to complete and I feel pride not only for myself but all the wonderful people who helped make it enjoyable during its run. Re: Zero: The High Council Is technically my first, but it was just something I kind of took over and ended up ending the story after just six months. It finished, but eh...
Last RP I finished was Symphony of Espers which turned out pretty good.

RP's in progress:
For some reason I can't seem to stay away from Ari's magical girl RP, even if I'm not sure why I'm still in it.
As for my own projects, I'm doing Symphony on High to continue the gigachad adventures of the espers in Pax Septimus.

RP Graveyard:
I've been pretty fortunate on this forum. I think I joined one when I first came on the site that didn't really do anything, and there are a few 1x1 things that didn't go anywhere. It's disappointing when an RP ends before it can be finished, but I've come to look at them as learning experiences.
And then there's that london magical girl RP, and that dark magical girl RP. I think I'm done joining magical girl RPs for a while.

I watch a lot of educational videos on youtube. Usually as research for something I’m writing or purely because a topic interests me. I like channels like Tier Zoo and Daryl Talks Games, and I’ll also watch things like Critical Drinker or Literature Devil to deepen my understanding of story telling. Though I also like memes and jokes, to which I’ll find myself watching stuff like Sseth, but usually find myself surfing through meme videos. I gotta work on that.
Games
I have a rather long history of playing virtually every platformer to come into existence during the indie boom, as well as quite a few other indie games. I’ve played Meatboy, Binding of Issac, Gunvolt, Cuphead, Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt, Classic Metroid, Warcraft 3, Final Fantasy 7,8, and 14, Left 4 Dead, Shantae, Celeste, Danganronpa, God Eater, the list goes on. What I’ve played is kind of all over the place. I don’t play many games these days, I tend to pick things that look interesting and go on a decent steam sale.
Painting Minis
I do this in moderation. Otherwise, it's a pretty expensive hobby to start...
Music
I listen to everything, save most country/rap songs. I have too many favorites to name.
Personality:
Not one to take life or the internet too seriously. Is only serious about writing well and having a good time.
People to Insult:
Dalton is a Dingus.

"I'm twelve years old and what is this?"
Boteg had contacted Amber about the train station. While the dragon was primarily concerned with the security of its own lair, he did view large crowds of monsters as potential threats. Amber expected a group of monsters making this much noise would likely have attracted a few magical girls already. That was good, as she was still recruiting for Lily's siege on Helga's former employer. Sky bastion was already on it's way to the train station, leaving Amber and Sue some time to talk before touching down. Amber was standing topside with Sue perched on her shoulder.
“Helga is still in bed I trust?” Amber was supporting herself on the ship's railing.
“I didn't see her when I got up, so she must be. We need to pick up some furnishings for her room later.”
Amber nodded before changing the topic. “So, what did we learn yesterday? Mariette is kidnapping magical girls for some nefarious purpose, and she works for a horror.”
“A-and that Deni is gorgeous!” Sue hopped so that she could face Amber. “What did you think?”
The pirate groaned. “I still think she's fake... Anyway, you're being way too anxious.”
“You're right, I hardly slept at all last night, I was so excited!” She fluffed up her feathers. “Well, terrified and excited. That meeting called upon the full spectrum of my emotions. I'm hoping next time I meet Deni it'll be a little more relaxed.”
“You had one conversation, and when you first met she was trying to gut me like a fish.”
Sue hopped closer to Amber's ear. “You can't say anything! You gave Helga a body, and she attacked a hospital!”
Amber chuckled. “I understood her position is all. Hearing her story reminded me of myself. I helped her out of pity is all.”
“You're just a big softie, aren't you Amber? You even spared Mariette when you knew how much that bunny meant to her.”
“Hmmm.” the pirate raised an eyebrow. “Seems you've gotten a little bolder after last night. I wonder if that's something that needs correcting?”
“D-don't be mean!” Sue hopped to turn away from her.
Amber smirked. “Just keep your eyes open for some magical girls. Preferably ones that can reach the overcity.” The ship started to slow as it reached the train station. “Well, this looks like our stop. I hope you're ready.”
“I don't think I'm ever ready.” Sue flew into Amber's hat before the pirate dove off the side of the ship. The sails on her back opened up and let her glide down to earth.

In regards to being a player in an RP as a GM, it is perfectly normal and encouraged. It's typically frowned upon to make yourself the main protagonist and use the other players as sidekicks, but having a model player character in the RP that other players can choose to follow and take cues from is a good idea. I've never seen someone call out the GM for giving his character special privileges. I have seen people call out the GM for treating a player more favorably than everyone else.
As a GM player character, more people will want to interact with your character. You are the one moving the story along after all. But I have noticed a reluctance for other characters to form deeper bonds with my characters when I'm the GM, such as friendship and romance. That could just be my experience though, but I suspect it's because GMs are also very secretive. we don't want to reveal too much to the players, and so they don't trust us as much with deeper relationships.
If you want to be surprised, you need only give your players the freedom to do such things. An example where I was a player, one of my characters were attacked by a vampire-thing. I fled from the attack, and my character said a flirty line towards the attacker, because he's a jerk like that. Turns out that while the monster is nigh-immortal, it is weakened by words of love. So instead of someone stepping in to save my character from this creature, someone stepped in to save the creature. Long term nothing really changed, but it was something the GM didn't expect, but was able to adjust for. Other examples of surprising the GM are hidden backstories. Don't force your players to write everything on the character sheet.

I guess you could fight and assert your dominance. But if you fail, he becomes the new alpha.
Alternatively, you can kick him out of the pack or kill him if the rest of the pack feels he's dangerous.
How much older is this troublesome wolf anyway? I'm surprised he's not the alpha already, unless he's too old to hunt?

Alright, this night of carnage is going to be two collabs. One will be Krista trying to find the teli, and the other will be the anti-Alexandria team. So yea, look forward to that.
Walpurgis night was pretty weak by the time it got to me, so I'm back sooner than expected. Just lost power for about 2 days.

They want to be destroyed, without mercy.
The Bates were unable to contact their beacon hunting allies. It was safe to assume Umeko was put off by Regina's last outburst. Umeko bragged about her ability to track anyone, and two monster twins with a huge aura should have been an easy target. But Regina did not sleep on the streets that night.
In the morning, Regina was sitting in a lavish home, specifically the guest bedroom. She was sitting on the corner of a bed sketching pictures on a notepad. Elroy was completely reclined on an adjacent bed, lowering grapes into his mouth.
Regina had persuaded an older woman to let two poor, homeless runaways take up residence in her house. This was one of the few times Regina didn't need to use her powers to persuade someone to help her. Any good samaritan would help a bruised and burnt pair of twins. They were welcome to stay until they recovered, which was going to be a very short time with Regina's healing artifact.
“Is there something you want to talk about Elroy? You've been awfully quiet.” Regina didn't look up from her drawing. As soon as she finished it, she just flipped the paper over and started drawing a new one.
“You made me think you were dead.” Elroy didn't look away from the ceiling. “You manipulated me.” He looked unusually stern, not even a hint of a smile.
Regina looked between Elroy and her artwork. “I... Was angry.” She continued to draw. “You haven't been very obedient recently. You were right to ignore my order about teasing Caroline, but you insisted on fighting Ilia and you nearly killed each other.”
“So we did fight.” Elroy shifted his gaze onto Regina. “That's twice you toyed with my head. That I know about anyway.”
Regina promptly stopped drawing, her lips curled inside her mouth. “Yes, he was going to divide himself up into a bunch of clones and severely injure you, if not kill you outright. You might have hurt him pretty badly, which wouldn't have helped our situation either.” She looked directly at him. “But I knew you were too proud to stop fighting, so I ended the fight.”
“Thanks mom.” Elroy started to smile. “But then why did you put me in a far more precarious situation? I mean, Beacon actually would have killed me if I stuck around for it. And you know I would have after you died.”
Her grip tightened on her pencil. “You weren't going with the plan, and you seemed like you were cooperating with that miserable beacon girl. Meanwhile, that disgraceful monster was preparing to attack one of us.” She scoffed. “I wanted so badly to fire first, but I trusted you would make the right choice in time. All you had to do was grab her and run. It would have been easy, she had no way to resist. But you waited too long, and that monster girl could have killed me.”
“You also told Umeko that you didn't want to confront Beacon because you didn't want to appear on their radar.” Elroy sat up on his bed, looking straight across at Regina. “So what do I do in those situations?”
“I was scared, okay?” Her voice cracked. “If that cyborg had chosen to fire on you instead of me, I would have been alone. There's no one else in this world that I can trust.” There was a shutter in her breath. “I'm not sorry for what I did. What you felt last night is exactly how I would feel if anything happened to you. Who am I going to go back to? My father? My mother? The beacon killers?”
Elroy's smile faded as his fellow twin went on. “Alright. So what should I do?”
Regina's lower lip was trembling. “I want you to remember how horrible you felt.” She inhaled deeply. “Also, y-you should give me a hug.”
“Excuse me?” Elroy raised an eyebrow. “You really want one, or is this your way of saying sorry?”
Regina tossed her drawing pad off to the side and stood upright. “Stop antagonizing me and just do it!” Elroy was confused, but stood up in turn. He approached his sister and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. Regina placed her hands on his back, pulling herself to him. “It was interesting though.” Regina spoke in a quiet voice. “Seeing you fight so hard to avenge me. That's definitely not something I’m going to forget either.” She looked at the side of Elroy's head. “A-and you can't say I never hugged you now.”
“I guess we both have something to remember then. I'll forgive you.” His smile was starting to return.
“Well, I forgive you too.”
”Hope I'm not intruding.”
Tonya did not appear before the bates as herself. While she did assume a form that closely resembled her own, that of a wolf monater girl, everything else was different enough that no one would assume that the two were the same.
"Excuse me!" Regina shouted. "What do you think you're doing here?!"
”I could say the same to you. But instead I'm going to comment on your amazing fashion sense!” Tonya spun in front of them. She still had a Bikini top on, specifically so that she could open with that line.
"O-oh!" Regina looked away with a blush. "Y-you don't look so bad yourself."
"Didn't answer the question, wolf girl." Elroy fret his brow, but kept his smile up. "You here to squat with us, or what?"
”I'm here to give you some back up, actually.” She folded her arms. ”You seem kind of lost. Wouldn't you like a patron to help look after you and teach you about this magical world you've found yourselves in?”
The red haired woman folded her arms. ”I don't know. Those little things...”
”Yea, the little rodent guys aren't my favorite thing to deal with either. To avoid that, you'll want to work with the Mint. Or more specifically, Veronica.”
"Veronica?"
”Yea, wanna meet her?”
The look on their faces said it all. Her anonymity from the mint was hers. At least for now.
