Quotes
"Well, thus far you have been outgoing and charming. You want to make contact, to reach out. You collect the unwanted, you possibly feel an affinity to them. Maybe you want to be collected too. You haven't finished what most perceive as an accomplishment, and you state that it doesn't bother you, but it might."
Wren

"Joel's like life - sometimes he's great and sometimes he makes you want to shit bricks. But you don't want to be without him, anyhow."
Maxine

"I always th-thought of you as m-more of a b-bird. One of th-those that can l-live in the c-city and s-still sing."
Liane

"I think your total lack of shame is one of your more endearing qualities, actually."
Nathan

"He's volatile and has many skills that make him dangerous."
Katie


RP Hooks
  • Did you order a pizza? Too bad, I don't work there anymore!
  • Ever wonder who lives in that decrepit mansion outside old town? Me!
  • Do you like to hang out at the park, library, pool hall, clubs, or uh... wherever?
  • Can't think of a hook? No problem! Page me and we'll think of something, or just stop by. If I'm online and in a public room, I am looking for RP! I like meeting new faces whenever I can and I'm mostly harmless, so don't be shy.
Section of the wiki that I haven't decided what to do with

Physical Description

On the tall side of average, this man's build is strong and lean, with muscles that tend towards wiry rather than bulky. His dark hair is longish, but not long enough to pull back into a tail, and has a tendency to fall into his face. The man's clear, smooth skin is a pale olive hue, the sort that darkens bronze in the sun, and his eyes are an ambiguous brown-gray-blue-green color that looks like a new kind of boring in every type of light. He has a long, straight nose and high cheekbones, and seems to be wandering though his early twenties. A glint of silver at one eyebrow draws attention to a piercing there, and he wears one ring on his left hand, one on his right. He's also wearing several necklaces with various types of pendants, collectively beginning to look a bit hippieish.
