Hi there everyone! I’m currently reading TMP1, and the assessment placed me in Weatherwatch. I am a biomedical scientist (specializing in neuroscience - my username is a play on the type of cells I study :nerd_face:), but I am also a HUGE bookworm. I haven’t participated in a forum in about 15 years, but I am in love with the idea of readers shaping the narrative of this story, and I’m very excited to get involved!

Hello, I am back again? Is there a place where I can get caught up on almost a year of not being here?

Welcome back!

A fair bit has happened since…April?

Looks like the Search for Magiq picked up about a month after you were last here. Those particular topics have “Search for Magiq” in the title (and are numbered in order!).

Some of the more recent threads after those are labeled a bit differently, perfect time to work on that master list I’ve been meaning to take a stab at. :laurensmile:

Edit: and here’s the shiny new table of contents!

I guess I’m in the right place with this one, but there’s not much to say yet.

Hi—I’m catching up. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I pay the bills by being an attorney, but I also write fiction (mostly fantasy/sci-fi, some horror and romance, and some that blends pieces of that together). I ended up in Thornmouth, which makes a great deal of sense.

I have a pretty long background with shared narratives, by way if MUD/MUSH/MOO/MUX/whatever you want to call those things. I am proud to say that I have reportedly brought other people (whom I never met) to tears at least twice by writing a character’s death. I have always loved puzzles and riddles, and remember fondly Kit Williams’s books (Masquerade and The Bee on the Comb) among others.

I will be quiet for a while while I catch up. (And I intentionally rewrote that to use “while” twice, so I can ask whether you pronounce them differently in that sentence.)

And I forgot to mention that @CJB is getting a fair amount of side-eye from me, based on that photo on the author page, for being a virtual doppelgänger, or perhaps a younger-looking version. I wonder if he has problems being recognized as “that guy from Mythbusters” (Adam Savage) as well?

That’s probably the most flattering lookalike that’s been suggested to me so I very much appreciate it. :cjheart:

I usually get people that are primarily mainly known for their personalities, not their appearance. Although I’m not mad about Yukon Cornelius:

Despite all video evidence (and i think literally being on a google hangout with you in the past), this is who you are in my head now.

I’m okay with that.

Hello All,

The name’s Khaosrook. Great to finally be here. My wife has been telling me about this forum and I am very excited to jump in and see what awesome things are happening in this community.

Cautious and wary by nature, I like to think of myself as someone who is ready and able to help a good cause. I guess it’s not too surprising that I was sorted into Ebenguard!

Real life, I’m just your every day exhausted pigeon looking for something to sink my teeth into and get excited about. I enjoy playing video games and have recently been watching a lot of dramas on Netflix haha.

Looking forward to getting to know more of you!
