General roleplays

Mod post

This post is for people who want to play more general roleplays, I'm leaving this unstructured, to play please comment with who you play (even if you think it should be obvious from your icon/username) and what sort of interaction you're looking for.

If someone wants more structure/to take over handling general roleplays please ask and I'll be happy to add at least one mod for this.

Yeah, Christopher Eccleston is from Manchester, that's about two hours drive from here. I'm from Yorkshire though, so it's a little different. Specifically, Hull. Personally, I like the accent here, but it's a minority opinion. EVen most people from here don't like out accent. I don't think there are any I *don't* like though :-)

I've never heard of Jeremiah, is it a TV show? Sounds pretty interesting. I'd definitely reccomend Brandon Sanderson if you're into fantasy stuff, he creates these incredibly complicated worlds with different magical rules and abilities that people have, but writes in this really accessible, non-pretentious way. It's very cool. I kind of stumbled actress his stuff a few years and, and I think I've just about read everything he's written now.

Cool. I think accents are interesting. I have no gift for mimicry - that's more my SO's territory. He'll mimic characters on TV, people he knows, and does a spot-on impression of his dad, who's from India... Myself, I'm just lucky people understand me. (As a kid I needed speech lessons. I still have a tendency to talk out my nose if I don't actively concentrate on not doing it. But, it's nothing people notice anymore.)

Yeah, Jeremiah is a TV show. It only has two seasons and Mr. Smith is a main character in the 2nd season. (Not sure if he was in season 1 - he might have been towards the end, I forget.) He's my fav and real reason for watching. LOL.

Maybe when school gets out in a couple weeks I'll track down some of his books. I have about a two week break before my summer class starts up. Sounds like something to tide me over while I'm waiting for the next Dresden Files or Patrick Rothfuss's Kingkiller Chronicles.

Yeah, I'm no good at doing accents or impressions either. I can do a passable Liverpudlian, probably a result of spending my childhood watching Red Dwarf to the extent I can still pretty much quote entire episodes.

Another Dresden fan? I love those. It's been a really long time since the last one came out though, and I've heard nothing about another one. I've not heard of the Kingkiller Chronicles though. Are they worth checking out?

Awes! I love Dresden files. I even listen to the audio books. James Marsters reads them and it's like listening to a one-man show the way he does the voices. He's definitely Harry now for me. (And Bob, and Butters, for that matter.)

They're really good! And, I went to a bunch of the writer symposiums at Gen Con last year... Patrick Rothfuss was there. After hearing him speak at a few of the sessions, I like him even more. He seems like a good guy. (Jim Butcher was there the year before - he didn't seem to want to be there, though. I wonder if it was the crowds. I know I had to recharge in the designated quiet room a few times when the crowds were at their peak.) "The Name of the Wind," his first book, is worth checking out. I was so hooked I read it in two nights... Couldn't put it down. But, there are only two books out in the series, plus a side story, so they go quick.
