1. Name
My name's Taylor. I go by Tj most of the time, but if I settle on Tayn for a name I suppose that will do just as well :D

2. What sort of RP experience do you have if any?
I used to roleplay a lot. When I was in my teens I roleplayed on more sites then i can count, alone, with friends, etc. I've also run a few sits on proboards - one of them was actually quite popular for a while! I'm a little older now (22) and I find myself craving roleplaying in a way that DnD with my friends just can't give me - i need real RP!

3. How did you find us?
I found this place on a tacky "topsites" portal but I was certainly alarmed and impressed by the breadth and scope of the site once I got here.

4. What sort of RP style is your favorite?
In broad terms, medieval fantasy, although I used to dabble in sci fi and western. I like roleplaying characters who are flawed, and who struggle.

5. What do you like to write about - not write about?
I love a good fight rp, but usually my favourite part of combat is the before and after :P. I love human interaction in roleplay and I am constantly fascinated by how other people write. Roleplaying is a much more rewarding experience then solo writing to me. I love nontraditional characters - I think i have a fun idea for one here.

I dislike writing PVP fights unless I'm very comfortable with the other roleplayer. I hate stepping on other players toes so I'm rarely comfortable fighting another PC unless the boundaries are very clear.

6. Whats your favorite thing about Mizahar so far?
The breadth and scope of the lore. In the RP sites I ran in the past, I always prided myself on developing a complex backstory and lore. This site goes far beyond that. I have spent 2 days reading in my spare time before i got the courage to make an account and I feel like I haven't even broke the surface.

7. What, if anything, has frustrated you about Mizahar so far?
For my first character I wanted to play something that wasn't a human - I guess because I'm a hipster that way :p. I found that most of the other races I liked weren't really inclined to wandering, and I wanted to start in Sylrias because I want to jump right in.

So long story short I just wanted a crazy race I could start in human territory with. Took me a while to put it together.

8. What would you like out of the mizahar experience?
Some deep and exciting roleplay. To meet some new people. Grow more confident in my writing - try my hand at some new roleplay. Experiment and grow.

9. Is there anything you'd like to see expanded?
Not until I'm done reading what's already here :P

10. Anything else you want to talk about?
Way too much :P. I'm thinking of making a Eypharian character that practices the ancient art of Semhu. I am a bit of a theatre geek in my own life and when I stumbled across Semhu I immediately fell in love. I have like 20 tabs open and I'm reading up on whatever I can find on it and the skills related hahaha. Hopefully I will have an agile dancer/singer/actor when I'm done!

Well, hallo there, Tayn! Allow me to be the first to officially welcome you to the wonderful world that is Mizahar :) .

Alarmed, impressed, overwhelmed...I'm fairly certain I can speak for everyone when I say we all felt like that the first time we stumbled upon the site and its glorious wiki. I had at least twenty tabs open, too, as I tried to drink everything in! It's constantly being developed and expanded, too, both by the player-base and the Founders who set the whole site up, so it's not as if we're static and unchanging either.

Eypharians are one of my favourite races, and Eyktol's a brilliant region; it sounds like you've done your research and I'm sure you'll fit in well here!

The usual advice is to read all the Starting Guide and as much of the wiki as is relevant to the character you want to make, but it sounds like you've already done that and more :) .

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to fire off a message or pop into Chat and ask; there's usually a few veteran players and Storytellers hanging around who're only too happy to help!

Best of luck fleshing out your character and finding your feet in our wonderful world. I hope I'll see you roleplaying soon!

Alses

PS: Yes, we are Mizaharians :) .

Thank you for the warm welcome Alses!

Overwhelmed. Good word choice. Definitely still taking it in. I'm looking forward to being a part of it, and maybe contributing to the growing world one day!

I think I might go to Q&A with a few question about Eypharians and Semhu but I'm excited to get started. Just looking over the character sheets of everyone I find and reading a few of their posts is exciting. Can't wait :P

Hi and welcome to the site!
It is a pretty fun place here!
I have a Zith from Sunberth, if you start out there shoot me a message and I would be more than happy to start an RP with you :)

Once again, welcome,

I love to RP if anyone wants to create one and needs people or want to do a 1-on-1 just let me know :) I love to RP :) And I am up for any!
