Bio

Hey, there. Myst here, as you've probably guessed. Can't exactly write in other people's bios, can you? But, you're probably reading this for a reason, so I'll get to it.

I prefer high-Casual and Advanced games, in a medieval, fantasy or sci-fi setting, because that's the sort of nerd I am.

I'm a thinker - I've thought a lot on certain things, and am firm in my beliefs. So you could ask me what I thought about a good few things and I could give a well-reasoned answer. Or a less reasoned answer based on my morals.

TheCharactersOfMyst - This is my storage for past and present characters, and where I might occasionally go for nostalgia and/or recycling a character I've used before.

@Innis I wonder why? ;)
Something to tide you over has been added to the IC... in case anybody was wondering where Mari was. Co-written by Ammokkx.

You may ask questions.
We will not answer them.
Mari & ???


Mari took a deep breath, though taking care not to breath in any of the dust that floated around her. With a little shining bubble bobbing beside her, she clambered through the new hole in the wall. It had fallen in yesterday, and today she wanted to explore.

It was a long time before she saw anything interesting. There was a gap in the roof, and it was letting in a beam of sunlight. Lying with its back turned to her, was a giant bird. Was it asleep?

Stepping closer, she gently brushed its wing... so soft. But she only took that in for a moment before the bird moved suddenly, spinning around and-

"You're not a bird!" Mari said.

The 'bird' threw its wings in front of itself protectively, staring. "Ah... mmm..."

"What are you?" the little girl asked, tilting her head. "Are you a bird-lady, or a lady-bird?"

The creature shook its head, lowering their wings a bit. Her eyes were filled with fear, the whites clearly visible around the azure iris. Mari could feel them watching her, closely.

"N-no... a harpy," it shyly replied.

"Oh." Mari said, shoulders drooping slightly. Then, looking back up at the har-pea, she told it "You're really pretty!"

The harpy's cheeks became a little red-tinted, her eyes shooting towards the wings covering her body. Their stiff lips softened a little, curving into a little smile.

"T-Thank you... uuuh..." it stammered back. The creature looked at Mari again, just as curious as she was.

"A-Are... D-Do... I-is this your house?"

"No." Mari said. "It's my uncle's. Then he had to go away, for a long time, so Endar looks after it."

"E-Endar..." the harpy repeated. Then, it meekly asked: "Is... does E-Endar know I'm here?"

Honestly, Mari didn't know. Endar knew a lot of things Mari didn't... but she knew some things he didn't, like how to get into the rafters.

"No." she shrugged. "I don't think so, anyway. He's having this weird gathering out in the courtyard right now, and he's been teaching me how to pack my things, so he's been really busy recently."

The harpy's wings lowered a bit further, but so did their smile.

"A-Are... you lonely? I-If you want, we c-could play..." she offered meekly, speaking in a hushed tone.

Mari's eyes lit up. "Yeah!! I'd love to play! We'll have to be quiet, though... Endar can hear a lot. I've been pinching my ears to make them pointed like his, but it hurts a lot."

The harpy giggled. "L-Let's play h-hide and s-seek then... okay? I-I'll count first."

The harpy wrapped her wings around her face, and bouncing on her heels, Mari worked her way across the attic. She knew all the best places. There was no way Harpy could win!
Banned for gagging on a lollipop.
I mean... he's probably seen some more people in the past, but those guys were WAY worse than any of yours. I mean, you lot are welcome to think up some quick NPCs who walk in. Non-collaborative requirement, but, he will address each of them.
Granted. All your allergies are purged from your body... at the cost of becoming deathly allergic to light.

I wish I'd stop forgetting to make a wish.
Banned for assuming I have a job.
Kinda having difficulty thinking up a character... I'm in a bit of a block.
Banned because I am fully rested but feel extremely tired.
Well, if anybody needs ideas for how university courses might fit into thieving, I've got some good ideas;

Dancer; for a cat-burglar type - good amount of flexibility, able to step lightly and move swiftly, so on and so forth.
Acting; bluffing your ways through situations, pretending to be someone you're not.
Artist; most art courses are all about copying the style of some artist - so why not use that as 'inspiration' for a forged piece of artwork?
Chemistry; creating chemical compounds - chloroform, acids, and the like.
Engineer/Metalworker/Mechanics; building tech/equipment that we might need - and a blow torch.
Computer Programmer; Also known as a hacker or a cracker. I've done my research, given a character I'm playing in another RP.
Sportsman; Well, athleticism will probably figure in somehow.
Architect; Building plans can help you find weak points in the security.

That's all I have at the mo. It's 2am for me and I TOLD myself I needed to be asleep three hours ago.
