Current Its a fun feeling to just sit and think about what to do for responses. The flipside is feeling locked in place, waiting for another to go first on something.

You ever take a look at the forum board, not see anything of ready interest, and decide to just go about your day? Figured I'd see if a new game was interesting, nope, ah well.

Writer's block is a pain, but if I happen to owe anyone apost, I'll be working on them tonight, hopefully. Might go surfing, see if any games catch my attention.

Bio

I already did an earlier introduction, but this is something one could always see, so let's roll.

Serene is the pen name that I use over on my old G+ account, which if you're able to find the account before the site shuts down, is Serene Selphia, but no fancy url, lol. But to those I'm close enough to, my nickname is Chris, and if I ask you to not use it, its nothing personal, I'm just not ready for that level of friendliness. That isn't to say I'm not a friendly person, just that I can be a bit professional when it comes to stuff. I've been rping since like...2011 I think? If I could find the Minecraft rp forums I started on(yes those were a thing, it was actually full of good rpers, but all good things come to an end of course), I'd have a precise date.

I roleplay a lot of things, well, that was the old system. About four years back, I settled down in a roleplay community on G+ called Temple of Glory, and began to stick to just one character who I kept working on, using other characters as I felt the need. That was my current primary character's father, a character I'll call the Professor for now, as I intend to post a version of his character sheet later. Probably when doing so wouldn't spoil what became of him in a storyline. Anyway, after a point I burned out as him, and switched focus to his daughter, who I use primarily in the old roleplay hub I come from. The Good Doctor, and here, no spoilers, mostly because ahaha, I'm shy about that.

I love a lot of series, but my heart goes out mainly to Rune Factory, Sonic, Mega Man, Metroid, Mario, Pokemon, and Duel Monsters. Especially Rune Factory and Sonic, though lately I've fostered a love for the Nasuverse, Fate Grand Order is a fun time. I love to read a variety of things, and I'm always online unless sleeping, so feel free to drop me a line if you need it. While I'm relatively new to the site here, I'm an rp veteran, and a skilled writer, as you'll see whenever I post the Doctor's current profile.

Ah right, more on me. I'm a college senior presently, I just had my capstone for my history degree wrapped up, and I'm proud of my progress. While I am a loner by nature(I mean my writing often keeps me trapped in my room to meet paper deadlines), I'm still a sociable person, and if you can't reach me here, my Discord is Serene Selphia#1064. So I suppose that's a bit of a spoiler, but to who, I won't say. Just be forewarned, if you ask me about a character of mine, there's a risk I'll write a lot, so make sure you're totally fine with that.

In terms of roleplay, while I do mainly fantasy/science-fiction, I can roll with just about anything(as far as I know), but if I tell you its not working for me, don't take it personally. I'm a fairly detailed writer, and in terms of style, I'm good with both combat and non-combat related narratives, I mean, my current main was built for combat initially, whereas her father is more the sociable type. The most detailed things tend to when I describe the world around, or when writing profiles for characters I adore. Basically, if I'm in tune or really love something, you could get a lot. I once wrote about twenty pages on a google doc in two hours because I loved it so much. Weird flex sure, but you can understand it. I don't look for much in rp partners, so long as you can write me enough that I understand either what you're doing, or what's going on, I'm usually good. I'll generally drop a line if I need more information.

I love learning, so if you ask me about something, and I don't have an answer, I'll gladly take the time to do at least a basic amount of research. And if you're ever stumped for ideas, drop me a line, I'm always glad to help fellow veterans or the newer folk. Heck, at one point for a friend's group I wrote an entire(albeit unused) document full of random plot ideas for the group drawn from throughout film and video games. Point is, if you need someone to talk to, unless I'm in a bad mood, or its a bad time(aka I'm about to go to bed, or in class), I'm always up for at least a quick chat. I do take commissions, so if you want a fanfiction written, give me a holler, or if you just want a custom story about a character of mine, or just ask for them to give their input on something in a non-serious setting. Still debating what to set prices for, or if I work totally free...I mean I should charge something, but anyways, wew, talk about a ramble, eh?

Anyways, that's about it. I'll probably rewrite this as needed.

I am a man, a man of strength, right? Having been rewarded this vision, I try again to visualize, to force something forth. This time, I try to force my arms to reveal themselves, trying to gain some understanding of who I was.

@Noodles
Howdy! Elves do in fact live longer, its something discussed briefly in RF4 with three of the characters. The one female elf you can marry worries about outliving the player, the detective is implied to have lost a partner who wasn't an elf, and the restraunt owner had one it was also implied who died badly. Sorry to be late with a response, I was out the entire day.

@CaptainSully

I'm pretty sure I still need to make the edits we discussed, but if there's anything we should discuss more, we can resume our DM.

That said, if I do need to make those edits, I can get to them after I get up, since I have to take care of stuff. College last semester and all is a thing.

In Tales from Frontier Village: A Rune Factory Roleplay {Always Recuriting/Accepting} → 7 yrs ago Forum: Casual Roleplay

"Welcome to the Golden Hind Inn, the finest, and only lodging this side of the border!"

Name:
James

Age:
While unknown, it can be safely assumed James is in his later years, due to the significant amount of "gray hairs" to him.

Sex:
Male

Race:
Human

Appearance:
Dressed in clothes that can be only described as upper class, James has a flair and sense of style, from his brown striped pants to his vestcoat over top of threads underneath. While these are his primary threads, he may wear leather gloves, a cape, and a cane for more dramatic moments.


Occupation:
Innkeeper, historian, storyteller.

Skills:
Bookkeeping: As the one in charge of the Inn, as well as often handling the majority of those passing through, James is a master at keeping score of the money that goes in and out. He also helps the other older villagers when they need it, though in honesty, so long as they can afford new materials, they'll be fine.
Well-Traveled: Aware of many cultures and racial norms, James is a fine host, making sure to cater to his guests, no matter who or what they are. He does his best to keep a stock of supplies that can, as far as he knows, be used by anyone. This also allows him to dazzle the village children with tales of far away lands, and of great events of the past.
Recordkeeping: As the town historian, its his job to keep records of as much as he can. He mostly relies on younger adventurers to assist him in various tasks.
Fencing: Though this is more a rumor than anything else, its said that James is a skilled user of fencing weapons, but not much else. It's probably all part of his acts.
Food Preparation/Drink Mixing: Being able to prepare food for oneself is key, and as the Inn Keeper, its always good to be able to cover should the need arise. James is not only good at making food that appeals to most, but also at making various drinks and mixes.
Actor: He's a dramatic fellow when he needs to be. Really, its all to make the children laugh.

Equipment: 
Walking Cane: A rather nice looking wooden staff that has been, over time, burnished gold, not being actually made of gold.

Description: 
The larger than life James is Frontier Village's Innkeeper, a kindly old man who acts as an almost grandfather esque figure to many in the village. Despite being in the village for only a decade, his diligence has time and time again helped his fellow villagers as needed. Noble and kind, he is ever the gentleman, ever the gracious host. That isn't to say he cannot be stern, merely that he wishes to run an efficient system. When business is slow, he'll tell stories to the children, and to grownups alike, even occasionally acquiring props to assist in dramatic tales. While he rarely talks about his life prior to the village, it can be inferred he was probably from the capital, and grew tired of city life, retiring to the country side to enjoy its cleaner air, and better food. It seems that while he is not of the famous family of gourmets, he certainly is aware of their tastes.

Point of Interest:
Golden Hind Inn is located across from the village guild, allowing adventurers to move from one building to the other with ease. Over time, it has been expanded, such as when James invested into adding a small pub for those seeking something...stronger than milk and water. The pub is open for general events during the day, and at night opens for drinks, and card games. The inn itself is three stories tall, and James has confessed a desire to add more rooms, so as to accommodate more guests, as recent information suggests there may be a rather large trading festival coming up that will have traders of both the Norad Kingdom and Sechs Republic hopping along. Rustic on the inside, James lives in a series of rooms located behind the front desk, which is also implied to be where the cellar is located. There's stables for Runemon mounts, and moorings for carriages. All in all, just what a village needs.

A Note for the Players: The Inn, alongside the Adventurer's Guild, are "hub' areas, so if you're stuck on an idea for how to fit yourself in, why not put yourself on the Inn's staff? Additionally, you can use this as a place to live, as the inn will function much like its counterparts in the Its a Wonderful Life pair of Harvest Moon games.
