Name: Ben Username: The one and only. Dare I say? Age: 33 Ethnicity: Mixed Sex: Male Religion: Christian (Nondenominational) Languages: English, Japanese (Semi-fluent & learning), I also know some Scots Gaelic, Quenyan (Elvish), and Miccosukee (My tribal tongue) Relationship Status: Single (Though generally unavailable unless I find I really enjoy someone).
Current Projects/Freelance work
I am a voice talent and script writer for Faerun History
I have a much smaller personal Youtube channel that I use to make videos on various subjects. Only been making videos for 2 years, but it's growing!
I'm the host of a Science Fiction & Fantasy Podcast where I interview authors of the genre.
Interests (Includes but is not limited to)
Writing/Reading (Love writing and I own too many books)
Video Games (Been a gamer for close to 23 years now)
Working Out/Martial Arts (Wing Chun/Oyama Karate mostly. Some historical swordplay as well.)
History (Military History is my specialty)
Zoology
Art (Mostly Illustrations. Used to be good. Am picking it back up)
Voice Acting/Singing
Tabletop Gaming (Started late in the game. Been at it for 3 years. I was the kid who bought the monster manuals and D&D books just for the lore for the longest time. I've played 3.5e, 5e, Star Wars D20, Edge of the Empire, PF, and PF2.)
Weaponry of all kinds
Anime (mostly action/shonen. DBZ & YYH being my favorites)
Movies (Action/War/Drama films being my go-to)
Music (Rock of all kinds, as well as historical folk songs, sea shanties, pub songs, a bit of classical music, etc)
Guitar (am learning to play, but being left handed makes it challenging)
There's more but if you care enough you can PM me :P
Roleplay F.A.Q.
Fantasy, Sci Fi, and Historical are my genres. Fantasy being my favorite and Sci Fi/Historical being close seconds.
Advanced / Nation / 1x1 / Casual (only in certain circumstances)
I generally write at the 'Advanced Level' meaning 4+ Paragraphs with good grammar.
I am usually busy with many projects and RPs, but if you wish to do a 1x1 with me, you'll need to present your case. Those I already do it with have my trust as a Roleplayer.
I love many, many fictional universes so me trying to list them all is an effort in futility!
@Mobius I know Rilla told people to halt, but after reading over it with you and Ink, you've gone a bit too far dude. If you have a problem with someone, PM them. And there is a difference between discussing something and concentrating on an actual post, the latter takes more effort and editing. You have a warning, atm.
@Inkarnate Thanks for speaking your piece but I'll handle this. It's not your place.
<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>
That's not true, he comes into this thread acting like a mod, but unlike you he has pretty clear bias. So I'm saying if he wants to be a mod he needs to be more objective. That's not an ad-homenim or a troll.
That is fair enough, but he clearly does dislike it so let's not. I'm about to sleep since it's 5 AM and if I need to wake up to more arguments (particularly after having needed to halt a few within the last hour) I'll be needing to be harsher than I've been, so just a heads up, my dude. I believe you, but let's not.
@Dias Blade I realize saying 'calm down' is the thing that works the least when people need to really calm down but that's all I suggest you do at the moment. No need to get heated.
@Dynamo Frokane Drop it or I will gladly request the mods shut down your bitch fest.
I read that as 'bitch ass.' Either way I appreciate the enthusiasm but everyone has problems and gets worked up. No need to call it that or call a mod, I got this :)
<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189> Outside of a few exceptions, we kind of are?
If you are, then you are not whom I refer to.
<Snipped quote by POOHEAD189>
I have no idea why but it feels like the 40K and Fantasy scene has the quickest turnover rate of any of the fandoms, with the only real exception I can think of being Star Wars. It's weird, and I have no idea what causes it, but I've yet to join a game that didn't fall off a cliff in two week's time.
I find it kind of ironic that a hobby like ours has a community with such poor retention. Roleplaying games, both of the tabletop and video variety, require hundreds of hours of gameplay to reach completion at times. Writing tends to be one of the longest forms of entertainment we have. Yet when the two end up smashed together, nobody wants to stick around!
Maybe if it's not in a real tabletop setting, people lose interest. We dont have miniatures to paint or armies to throw at each other.
