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!
I own every book the Eddings' ever wrote. Belgarath the Sorcerer is great but for my money you just cant beat the Elenium. He really has his interpersonal banter down by then and he does a neat job of making the characters interesting even though the are essentially all Knights.
Currently I am reading Ruins of the Galaxy by JN Chaney and Christopher Hopper. Frankly it is formulaic and had not impressed me thus far.
I own the first three books of the Belgariad along with Belgarath the Sorcerer and Polgara the Sorceress. I'll likely tear through all of his writing this year.
Oh I forgot to mention I'm halfway done with the Conan the Barbarian Anthology. No wonder I love writing novellas. This year I plan on knocking that out very soon too since I finally have more time.
Battlemage, by Stephen Aryan. A neat book of war, where a coalition of nations descend upon a single country that has summoned Battle Mages, who are a dying breed, to protect the kingdom along with their armies. There's three main characters. Balfruss, the traveling court wizard and Battlemage who is summoned to the capital to help in the defense, Vargus, a legendary swordsman who is keeping his previous identities a secret for an unknown reason, and Taladra the Princess who is also master of spies and whispers, who seeks to undo the coalition set against them with diplomacy. I'm not too far in, but so far it seems a fair read. The world is somewhat vague, though it still provides enough info for me to not be lost. Enjoyable so far.
The Belgariad, by David Eddings. Never read this popular series, but I'm reading the first novel. It's a book that uses all of the classic tropes of fantasy. Essentially David Eddings way of saying "fuck you" to people who considered traditional arthurian fantasy boring or tiresome. It's a very good read and popular, and even though I am only a short way in I'm liking it. Reminds me of the Wheel of Time a bit.
