I like plain cheese/ extra cheese pizza.
I like plain cheese pizza covered in just about every other ingredient that goes on pizza except anchovies and pineapple.

If you are a fan of Warhammer 40,000 or Age of Sigmar, let me know. Maybe we can put together an RP. I play Ironjawz & Kruleboyz in AOS and Salamanders & Drukhari in 40K.

Bio
I am a veteran of the United States Army and the US Army National Guard. I spent three years on Active Duty serving in the 4th Infantry Division (Mechanized) at Ft. Carson, CO, and the 3rd Armor Division at Kirch Göns, West Germany. I spent 18 years in the Army National Guard with the 26th Infantry Division "Yankee" and 29th Infantry Division (Light), "The Blue and the Gray". I was deployed to Bosnia-Herzegovina with the 29th ID (L) in 2001 - 2002. I have also been reading military history articles and books since I was 10 years old. I do prefer Military Role Plays over all other genres, primarily because I have a vast knowledge of the subject including personal experiences. At the very least, my characters are always veterans.
I have been writing for pleasure for at least 35+ years but only got into forum-based Role Playing about eighteen years ago. I do enjoy Nation Role Plays and get into minute detail when designing my military. The only reason I enjoy excruciating detail in my militaries is because for me, it is fun. My education and experience on this subject afford me the insight to see the depth of the structure. It is not just a General and a large pile of soldiers. If someone wants assistance in designing an army, navy, or air force, please send me a PM. I will help. Please specify what level (echelon) or depth you would like me to go. When I say echelon, I mean Army, Corps, Division, Brigade/Regiment, Battalion/Squadron, Company/Troop/Battery, Platoon, and Squad/Section.
When I was a student in High School, I used to play Dungeons & Dragons. Recently, I have been DMing a 5e campaign of my creation for my son and his friends. 5e is so much less cumbersome than earlier editions of D&D. I do have an interest in Tolkien-esque fantasy-styled Role Plays as well. Time travel has always been a fun genre for me, but to do it well, one must have a firm grasp of historical facts.
There are only a few fanfictions I will participate in; Star Wars and Star Trek are two of them. I want to do an exclusively Klingon RP one of these days. I also avoid Canon characters.
I have real-world martial arts experience. I would love to write an RP about hand-to-hand combat, no fantasy magic chit, just hands elbows, knees, and feet. Maybe the occasional head butt thrown in to mix things up. I trained in Krav Maga for six and a half years. I earned a first-degree black belt in Krav Maga on 3 June 2017.
Krav Maga is an Israeli martial art form that employs practical self-defense techniques drawing forms & techniques from Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and Taekwando. It is very brutal, demanding, and aggressive. During the seven years I trained, I have bruised two ribs, sustained several muscle pulls, and various lacerations and bruises over my body. I have received a sprained ankle and a fractured wrist. Before the first black belt test, I received a bone bruise to my right shin; where my roundhouse kicks impact. Yet, I am stupid enough to continue training. [Regardless of the physical pain, it is more fun than any other physical activity I have engaged in. Fortunately, the bone bruise healed up prior to the third and final test. EDIT: I did leave the sport over five years ago. :(]
Over two years ago I completed my first novel, a science fiction set in the 24th century. It focuses on a Private Military Corporation solely employed by the earth government. I started a second book in November 2022 and hope to work on that this summer when I have more time.
Send me a PM for a Role Play or if you would like to see what sort of an army I could build for you.

I am considering coming out of retirement to begin a campaign on the forum in the tabletop section but worry that it will merely be one of those inevitable things I will do that people stop being active in and kill the thread.
What sort of game? Fantasy Adventure? spy thriller? War game?
Road, I really like Dave MacReady. It seems our entire "cast" is filled with handsome people, except Donnelley of course. LOL Dave is the antithesis of my character Tom Stewart. When they meet, they will probably get along fine, but if Tom learns about his past, he may be skeptical and vice versa. Dave will not trust the FBI agent from Boston. But Road should approve because the character is a marine, Semper Fi! :D
Dave is of two minds: on the one hand, he doesn’t believe it’s anybody’s right to tell someone else what they can put into their own body.This statement right here is me. I don't like laws that restrict people's behavior if the only person being harmed by it is the person ingesting the substance. It is like the government or maybe just a party believes they know what is right and everyone else should comply with their practices, if they know what is good for them. It simply assumes the masses are stupid and not intelligent enough to make decisions for themselves.
@Xandrya no. We all did stuff towels in our pants, between our legs. All the weight of the world rests there. I could not look up. I had a Kevlar helmet on. The taught ropes were pressing against the back of my helmet.
I'd be jealous too. I've only jumped out of planes, never flown them
The only time I ever "jumped" out of an airplane was while it was resting comfortably on the tarmac. I did however fly about 100 feet beneath a helicopter once with three other people. The pilot dunked us in the Chattahoochee River for fun. :D
My 14-year old daughter flew a real airplane today. I am so jealous. She joined a Venturing Crew (BSA) that is all girls. They went to summer camp this week and went for a flying lesson.
I rarely remember my dreams. About two and a half years ago, I dreamt about a daughter my wife miscarried. She told me her name was Kadence. I instantly knew it was a daughter and not one of the three who are alive.
Hello Eme! I read your original post. What was it? 7 months ago? Maybe you’ve been updating?
Most of your requirements are cool with me. I am a big time Harry Potter fan, it is the only book series I read more than once. Instead of HP, I had some ideas about Percy Jackson or Firefly that I would be willing to try. Actually, it isn’t Percey Jackson, but an RP based on Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey. I guess Percy Jackson and ACO both have Ancient Greece in common. There is the parallel. We could either take on the roles of Alexios and/or Kassandra or maybe original characters set in that universe. We can chase down the Cult of Kaos members while skirting around the Peloponnesian War waging around us between the Spartans and Athenians. Maybe bump into Medusa, the Minotaur or the Cyclops.
If you are not up to a bit of Ancient Greek History, there is always Firefly. The book I am writing is set in a similar time frame as Firefly, but with a very different setting. Firefly was very dark and gritty which works for me. My book's setting allows that earth will continue to grow and succeed in an ever expanding universe; it is more positive. I actually saw the movie, Serenity, just recently. I never saw the TV show and wished I had. I loved the movie. When the show was on TV, I was working for a railroad averaging 72 hours a week and didn’t have time for TV. Even a story like Firefly could progress in a similar manner as Odysseus’ Odyssey in Homer’s tragedy if we write a sufficient amount of obstacles. We may even be able to borrow some of the mythical creatures from Homer's Odyssey and apply them to a 26th century setting.
EDIT: Keep your cookies. ;)
