Roy! - old Abey

[Abram Tannar]

Alright. So I'm Roy. At some point I was the Infamous Roy, but apparently I'm not all that infamous anymore.

This will be my first PotC RPG... period. Aside from snippets on the Neoboards, that is. Abram is actually a modified version of one of my own personal characters from a collaborative piece I did with a friend. Long story. But I'm excited to get going here.

Barbossa, Jack, Norrington = <3
... okay, so I owe Will some respect too.
CotBP though I was on the verge of strangling him... multiple times.

I've been roleplaying for about six years now... in my younger days I was an avid equine, but I appreciate RPGs that involve humans nowadays. There's that whole emotional spectrum. The whole romantic 'bring me that horizon'. Plenty more to work with. I run a RPG right now, it's starting out and doing fairly well. Ironically, it's based off of Tamora Pierce's books and I can't say I'm an avid reader/fan of Tamora Pierce. They just happened to be handy. I also booted the setting forward a few hundred years so we could have exciting characters... like, say, pirates?

I ah... work at a bakery. Very noble line of work, baking.

I sketch. It's a hobby. No, I'm not going to take it to a career. Never never never.

I listen to country music (Dierks!). Die Ärzte are pretty amazing; I adore Tin Hat Trio and Bo Kaspers Orkester. I'm a bit of a soundtrack geek too. I don't know where Klaus Badelt was going with all that grainy percussion in CotBP. Or why his name was slapped onto the soundtrack when Hans wrote most of the themes.

I have a thing for Alexander Hamilton. I'm dead serious. The library won't let me check out the Federalist Papers anymore. rofl.

I really don't know what else to say. What else should I say?

[Hector Barbossa]

Welcome! I'm not much for country music, but I am for RPs! Glad this'll be your first Pirates. Why? I don't know... I guess it's an honor. Hah.

So, yeah. Welcome to the board, and have fun. ^^

[Elizabeth Turner]

Welcome aboard. ^^

Go you for trying something new! I hope that your experience with Pirates here will encourage you to try it elsewhere if you see such ventures on your horizon. W00t. xD

[Abram Tannar]

I try to keep myself dedicated to one place. I'm already stretching it by being on two RPGs at once.

Thanks though! This RPG will be an excellent opportunity to revisit Abram and develop his character more... lol. No worries, Wicked. I'm used to people not liking country.

Anyone studying a language or two at present? I'll be in my fifth year of Spanish (AP Spanish) and fourth year of German, which I qualified for an Intermediate German II level at one of the colleges here in town. I was also in Germany for the World Cup. *wipes tear* Almost a year ago... exactly... on Wednesday.

[Hector Barbossa]

Nah, not studying any languages right now. Taking French next term, and took two years of American Sign Language in high school.

That's neat, though. About the world cup.

[Abram Tannar]

I learned how to sing some Disney song in Sign Language once... I don't remember it, sadly. lol.

French! See, French is a language I'd love to learn to read. It looks pretty on paper, but personally I think it sounds like a hee-hawing donkey when spoken.

[Hector Barbossa]

Sign language is so much fun. On Paint Crew, me and my friend would sign songs like 'My Heart Will Go One' and 'Ice Ice Baby' to each other. And 'Yellow Submarine'.

Haha. Good times.

I like the way French sounds. But I guess I'll always like the way Portuguese sounds the best. Unfortunately, they don't teach that here. -shakes fist- I'm not a fan of listening to German. Though, I thought the same of Japanese and now it's growing on me. Hm.

[Doyle Smithe]

Abram! Ya made it! *bear hugs and swings around* How ya doing!

(Okay I really must lay off the Maritime music. I'm just about ready to smother the world in a huge bear hug of happiness)

And be prepared for some serious creeping behind you. (starts to pry nails out of floorboards and rusting hinges)
