Bio

New roleplay: https://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/189457-the-eye-of-the-needle-where-fantasy-and-sci-fi-collide/ooc

Hey, I'm Catharyn! I joined the Roleplayer Guild on 2nd Feb 2011, then rejoined on the 17th Jan 2014 after Guildfall.

I was active every day until late 2015, accruing (i think) around 7k posts across dozens of roleplays. Then, I started working and had to gradually slow down my RP schedule. In 2017, I officially went on hiatus when other commitments got fully in the way of roleplaying.

This continued until the COVID-19 pandemic hit, when I suddenly realised I had a lot more free time in lockdown! So in mid-2020, I returned to the Guild with a vengeance. I also managed to get The Cradle 1x1 off the ground - a story i've had percolating for almost a decade.

My posting schedule has slowed down a bit now that the world has opened up again. I still love science fiction, fantasy and espionage themes, and generally aim for around 300 words per post.

Wooo, thousand OOC party!
*arrives laden down with champagne*
Fantastic post! I'm debating whether to do a mini post or go for a larger one that includes Jack as well.
Love the bio, accepted Hounder. Feel free to intro when ready. I wasn't certain enough on the subject of AI looking back, i would definitely re-think my approach to them in my next iteration of TSR. Sid is exactly what the Roleplay needs. Looking forward to your first post!

Thalia swept up beside the child, sitting on the step next to them and gingerly touching their arm. "What's up sweetie, are you hurt?" She asked, lifting the boy's chin so he was looking her in the eye. His face was red from all the crying. "My arm hurts!" He sniffed, raising it so she could see. A bullet had grazed it, tearing all the skin off to reveal pink flesh underneath; it had already got dirty so Thalia produced some anti-septic wipes. "This might sting a little okay?" She asked in her most reassuring tone. The little boy nodded bravely, his face crinkled up in anticipation. Thalia deftly cleaned the wound while he struggled to fight back the tears. "There we are, all done. Do you want a sticker?" Thalia asked sweetly, quickly bandaging the boy's arm. His sad eyes immediately perked up, he nodded furiously.

"Okay. Which would you like?" The doctor asked, producing a tattered sticker card with lots of different cartoon animals on them. "What are they?" the boy asked curiously, looking intently at the different ones. "This one's an elephant, that's a gazelle and i think that one's a lion." Thalia explained, drawing on knowledge from the books her dad had kept lying around. "That one! He's funny!" The boy giggled, pointing to the elephant, who was riding a unicycle. Thalia unpeeled it and gently stuck it to the boy's lapel before giving him a kiss on the cheek. "Go find safety, i'll come check on you later." The boy nodded, retreating back inside. Thalia stood up again and looked at the man who had been helping her. "Where to now?"
I've had a go at answering the questions you PMed me. Please feel free to post any further thoughts on the thread, that way other people can weigh in with their decisions. Also well done to Tristan for writing that beautiful post, opening up a new place for TSR, not bad for an architect's apprentice hehe New people (or veterans) are welcome to create a character for the ship, there is a lot of opportunity to experiment with totally new races.

Thalia looked up at the man from on her knees, where she had just closed the eyes of the dead woman. Her eyes held a hint of anger. "He'll live. He just needs attention. No wonder everyone's dying if you don't at least give them a chance." She holstered her trusty Welrod. He did had a point; although she had accumulated quite a few loose rounds rattling around the bottom of her pack, if she shot every dying person in here she'd be out of ammo without a doubt. Moving aside the woman's blood stained coat, Thalia found a leather knife holster, complete with small hunting knife. Carefully, as if the woman was only sleeping, Thalia loosened it up and pulled it clear of her. Holding it up for the man to examine Thalia said: "Happy? no more wasting bullets. Looks a little like my last knife... A field hospital sounds like a good idea, we need able bodied people to clear up this mess."

She could hear a faint commotion from somewhere close, but apart from that she could find no one out on the street. A few pale faces peered out from behind threadbare curtains up in the flats above. They stared down like wary owls. Thalia looked around for anyone else that might need attention, there were several. Getting off her knees she rushed off to a child who had begun sobbing in the doorway of a house.

Is this the right moment for Adrian to run past you two, screaming from the top of his lungs and holding the satchel above his head, queuing the Benny Hill Theme?


Yes.
My flatmate Tristan is joining us guys, he's actually written a really nice piece (with guidance) which will start off the next stage in the roleplay.
