A police officer came to my door; said he was looking for suspect with one eye. I told him he'd probably have an easier time if he used both eyes.

Bio

Not born in a log cabin, I came into the RPing venture around 2009 and quickly joined about twenty roleplays more than I should have at the time. I've been around the internet in that time span, participated in and run RPs on multiple forums, and brushed shoulders with a wide variety of players and characters. Getting to work with new people has always been part of the allure of the experience.

My interests in RPing are pretty diverse, and not genre-specific; if there's room at the table and I can think of a dish to serve, I'll cook something up for just about any meal. If you know what I mean.

That's... good?
I owe this a post.

How is everyone?
Added a small bit to the collab.
I'll get in on it later today
Apologies if I'm the hold up here. Bouncing back from a bout with COVID last week. Took more out of me this time around than the last time I caught it; probably just from also being drained by this winter's workload.
I pitched into the collab. Sorry it took so long. I was pretty miserable and sick last week.
Sorry. I've been dealing with a bout of COVID over the past few days. RP stuff has been inconsistent.
Abe Kaitori


Kaitori convened more closely with the gathering of adventurers and mercenaries near the front of the two-wagon train. She gave the group a cursory glance as she approached. Given they were allies for the time being, she saw no purpose in sizing anyone up in detail; she’d have ample opportunity to learn their quirks and talents as they progressed on the journey ahead. It was a seemingly eclectic band of hired hands, ranging from herself, to other warriors, to what she surmised by aesthetics to be magic practitioners. Most of them, at a glance, were up to traveling the road ahead. The only one among them that stood out was the one named Felix, who seemed too polished for a trek by foot. But if he wasn’t opposed to fine attire getting dirtied, or had his means of keeping it otherwise, then there was no room for concern. Kaitori gestured her head in acknowledgement and confidence in the team that had been assembled.

Her attention drifted coolly to the cooing of the farmhand tending to the second wagon. His remarks were crude, veiled thinly as pleasantry; not an uncommon response to seeing a woman such as herself brandishing a blade. Backed by the scolding of the matriarch, she lowered her head to Jacob. “You are forgiven.” The subtle smile she offered genuinely accepted the apology. However the glare in her eyes as she spoke tagged the good grace with a ‘this time.’ Before the man turned his attention back to the wagon, her fingered gently rapped against the hilt of her sword in accord with Marla’s warning against acting on any ill intents. She turned herself back to the front of the echelon, and walked toward the front of the first wagon, putting distance between herself and Jacob.

As the wagons began their roll from the farm, Kaitori joined the Elven escort at the front of the party. To sit behind wouldn’t have been to her taste, as she preferred to move briskly; she’d sooner race the horses than fall back to the rear; her swiftness was best exercised from the position of least obstruction. “I can cover ground quickly if we need someone to scout ahead.” She steeled her grip on her hilt, and added “and I’m quick to the draw.”
I've got it, but I can't figure out how to give you guys access.


If you go to Share & Export -> Manage Access you can set who can view, edit, comment, etc.

Typically, when I collab via docs, I set it so that whoever has the link can edit and then DM it to the people I'm working with.
@IAmTheIsland

Hi! I think that'll be really cool if you don't mind not being one of the main players. Feel free to PM me what ideas you have and we can discuss that.

Also hi everyone else! Glad you all made your way here! I am looking forward to this. I also wanted to ask if anyone had any ideas for a group name please feel free to pitch it. Some random ideas: HAVEN or (HVN), EVE, goodnite, etc (I'm horrible at names if you couldn't tell)


Eh. I mostly just had fleeting thoughts of a drummer that supports the vocal group as part of an accompanying band. Inherently a minor character, but maybe becomes a bit of an absorber of any drama between the main group. Or unwittingly ends up getting venting thrown their way.

That or I'd be eying to go the Almost Famous route and write as a media/journalist type that's associated with band. Perhaps a modern take in the form of the group's social media manager.

Just spitballing ideas that I can knowledgeably write.
