Greetings and Salutations! - Aeylis Bloodbinder - 10-13-2014

I suppose I should officially introduce myself, I just made a post looking for some RP but you know...how rude of me!


*insert deep female Hyur Highlander bow for formalities*

Hello everyone!  You all can call me by my character's name, Aeylis, because that's what internet anonymity is for!  Right? Right?

I'm in my late 20's (Try to guess my age and get it wrong, you're getting a healthy kick to the shin) and I've been playing video games since...well, since i learned how to read (that was at the age of 3, by the way.  Dear brother with ADD who always skipped through the text: Thank you for teaching me how to speed-read)!

This is my first time to actually RP in an MMO, But I'd like to think I'm alright at the act.  I've RP'ed a lot in other situations but we will leave those in the past...

By day I'm a retail/beauty expert, by night a fumbling 12 year old boy who like to crack skulls in games and live vicariously through my screen while watching cartoons and/or other amusing content on a second device.  

That being said!  I've already met a handful of you in game and it's been fun to observe how people interact in this type of setting.  I'm still largely fleshing out my character due to the fact that I just decided to jump into the excitement of RP before truly unraveling her persona.  I'll get to it, I swear.  One day, i'll be a real boy.

RP wise, I'm pretty easy going.  I take cues from others and will RP at their pace since I can be highly adaptable.  OOC I'm not always very confident or even outgoing with my RP (even though IC Aeylis is suppose to be quite the social butterfly) so I normally stay in the background and observe until I feel it's the right time to stroll by and join.  I simply want to avoid bursting through the wall uninvited, nobody appreciates the Kool-Aid man tearing up their house.

I'll stop myself before I ramble on any farther than I have.  Good to meet those that I have met already, and cheers to future people I hope to meet!

Hi! We've talked in the Quicksand before! I've seen you around since and it seems like you've taken to things pretty well.

I'll see you around. Don't be a stranger!

Eeee Laugh what are the hot colors for this fall? Make-up always starts the color trend for all of retail!

Welcome to the board! The lore here is kind of open so there's room to be creative, but staying vague and learning where you want to settle in is a great idea. There are a lot of good topics here with lore snippets from cutscenes and dialogue in the game (which much like you I skipped most of as well Dazed so much text sometimes)

Welcome again!

oh! sorry i didn't reply sooner!

colors for the fall? let's see...

 you always have the start of metallics when fall comes around, but more earthy tones instead of the cool silvers that you see during the winter season.  Think...Copper and browns.  Although on the runaways, there was a big burst of metallic eye-make up from shimmery coppers to downright sparkly black lids.

I think the biggest trend I saw that stuck out from normal fall colors was the early start of berry lips.  Normally that is somewhat reserved for the winter but I saw a lot of big, shiny eyelids with bold plum lips.

Also, color wise, the way to go is blue/purple.  Pastel or bright, those hues have been the color mark this time around.  

Oh! and nudes! Fresh face, slight blush on the cheek.  I saw that a lot.

Non-color wise:  Dark, defined brows, eyeliner extravaganza, and lengthy, seperated Doll-face Lashes.

This fall was really a spotlight for eyes, I must say.

Fashion wise, I'm not 100% sure.  I'm a make up artist so my attention is always on faces, not bodies...but from what I remember, There was a big buzz about a 60's retro vibe from a lot of top designers.  Big, colorful patterns and what not.  Also, BIG SWEATERS. With big collars!  and lots of prints.  I'd have to go back and do some research to remember everything...although I'm eagerly awaiting the winter fashion previews >.>


OH YEAH!

And hi to everyone that replied.  you guys are good people! Big Grin
