Australia, stop. Just stop. There's only so many of your bands that I can manage to stumble upon and fall in love wi-- You know what? I really don't mind. You guys are GREAT. 8FUIwMELKY4

"When senpai finally notices you..." "... and then his Duty pops."

Really - and I mean really - basic stuff on my end. Two monitors, keyboard, mouse, DualShock 4, a pair of SteelSeries Siberia's... But hey! At least I won't miss a single rerun or soap opera episode on TV. So that's something. #persona5hype

Here goes! What's the best time to visit the dentist?

c1jwfufdRYQ P.S. Have a great weekend, everyone!

Break stuff! :frustrated: eup94wYNNng

Similarities: 1. Both of us smoke. A lot. 2. We're both more or less of the same height, with him beating me to the punch by an inch. 3. Our sense of humor is pretty damn terrible. You'll see! 4. Similar tastes in cuisine and beverages. For the most part. 5. Tattoos, although my collection lacks -heart- ! Get it? 'Cause he's got a heart tattooed on his face. 6. Having some level of social anxiety, with his being arguably less severe. 7. Trees and forests are nice! 8. He likes to read - I like to read. Differences: 1. That being said, I wouldn't touch the stuff -he- reads with a ten foot pole. Unless it comes with a flamethrower. 2. Eckerd being a (soulless) ginger and yours truly having brown hair. I'm actually kinda jealous. Kinda. 3. I dwell and stress on things waaay too much in comparison. 4. I'm rather fond of a dull, normal life with 100% less deadly creatures prowling around! 5. Only Eckerd can handle and wield a variety of lances. Heh. 6. My physique's definitely seen better days. 7. I'm scared to death of heights, unlike that suicidal buffoon. 8. The obvious fact that only one of us has actually killed someone. Hint: it's not me. 9. I don't need to be turned into SHODAN to become sentient.

Main Character's Name: Eckerd Woeclad Wiki: Work in Progress Usually online: Between 19:00 and 03:00 UTC/GMT+2. Extended during most weekends. Intensity: Light/Medium. Recently returned from a somewhat lengthy absence, so I've got some catching up to do, OOC and IC alike. Very much open for RP initiated via PM.

Just a lil' something to fall asleep to. Note: May include Terence McKenna K76HlcP-c-w

I. Basic Information Character(s): Eckerd Woeclad Linkshell(s): None! Primary RP Linkshell: None! II. Roleplaying Style Amount of roleplaying (light, medium, heavy): Light/Medium at the moment, which is mostly due to my recent absence from FFXIV roleplaying, as well as the game itself, which has made it a tad challenging to dive back into the RP scene. However, as an attempt to reignite some confidence, I've made the decision to remake Eckerd from the ground up to be closer to the character that I originally wanted him to be, but couldn't quite pull through. Not that there aren't any similarities between his current and previous self - believe me, there's a bunch - but all the small details from his backstory, to his family and relationships, as well as his personality, are more or less altered. Improved, even, if luck would have it. Time will tell. Views on combat and injuries in roleplay: When it comes to combat, I've become rather familiar with two specific mechanics during my time spent roleplaying. One of those relying purely on luck and rolls, and another focused solely around emotes and decisions made by the players themselves. Out of said two, I highly prefer the latter, but rolls certainly have their uses - I completely get that! That being said, with combat based around emotes comes the OOC element, and I'd highly appreciate some form of contact if I'm about to get falcon punched by another player. Not that imagining poor Eckerd fly through a couple of buildings while slowly turning into mush wouldn't be entertaining - it would - but it'd definitely be nice to have a say when it comes to mutilating and/or killing off my own character. Views on romance in roleplay: Three letters: OOC. No, really - it's essentially what either makes or breaks a thing like this. Or so I've noticed. You could be the best roleplayer that's ever set foot in Eorzea, and your character could have insane chemistry with my character, but if there's absolutely no communication between both parties OOCly - or - there IS communication, but it's extremely forced and/or apathetic, then there's very little chance for a truly dynamic story to be able to be told between those two characters. After all, romance in RP - the way I see it - is supposed to be a gateway into exploring a wide array of emotions and the personal growth and hardships that come with two characters sharing such a bond with each other. If no such intent exists, then there's little to no reason for an IC romance to begin with. Views on non-romantic roleplay (family ties, etc): It depends! Definitely approving of - and hoping for - some family-like bonds to form between my character and others, given the time and chance for it. A good, tight-knit Free Company would also fit the mold without a hitch, obviously. Views on lore: As for the lore itself? I like it. I really, really do. As for the lore as a part of roleplaying? Well, obviously, there's a reason why said lore even exists in the first place, so I'm usually trying to avoid any of the bigger pitfalls (timeline errors, etc.) whenever possible, as I'd imagine most roleplayers do. I'll admit that I've chosen to steer clear of magic when it comes to my character, simply so that I won't go making any lore-breaking emotes while dealing with fireballs, bolts of lightning and borderline shady hocus-pocus trickery any time soon. Also, I completely forgot to mention that Eckerd is actually the bastard son of Ifrit's cousin, Blazit, and a one-armed circus performer. Pretty sweet, ain't it? Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc): Says, Shouts, Linkshells and Emotes generally fall into the IC category for me. Everything else is something I'll consider purely OOC, unless a situation arises where they should be considered IC as well. III. Other Information Country: FIN Timezone: UTC/GMT +2 Contact Info: PM me here or hurl me a /tell in-game!

Man... some really good tunes 'round here! *shoves said tunes into his personal background music collection* Now, absolutely -don't- take this as patting myself on the back in any way, shape or form, but I've actually got a habit of making character-specific music for my RP toons. That, unsurprisingly enough, also includes Eckerd, so he better be pretty darn grateful! Even if the overall quality of said music is seriously lacking in many ways, at least when compared to more professional pieces around... buuut that can't be helped! You can click right here and the magic of the interwebz should take you to what I'd consider his "theme song" out of the three pieces of music I've conjured up for my Highlander. If not, well... you probably just activated Skynet. So thanks a bunch for that.

I just recently found out that I've been listening to not only this album, but this one particular song, on a pretty much daily basis since the album's release in June. No regrets. None. Nope. 2mGVSv28DD0 Also, this is, uh... apparently my first post here? HI EVERYONE! *waves* I'm definitely liking this place.
