1. Name - or what you'd like to be called!
You can call me any of these:

Oro (the name the chat server has bestowed unto me)
Ruma (my RPC's nickname)
Ororadaruma (duh, but please don't pretend not to know how to spell it)
Doc/Doctor (based on my normal forum username)
Whitey/Whiteface (as above)
Anything else (as long as it's not vulgar or offensive. And no poo references because of my Jamoura RPC. Seriously... I'M LOOKING AT YOU RIN! B| )

2. What sort of RP experience do you have if any?
I've been roleplaying since I was nine, so around seven to eight years, most of it illiterate. I've only got into high-literacy roleplaying in the past three years or so.

3. How did you find us?
Rin told me about you over Skype

4. What sort of RP style is your favorite?
I don't really have a preference, though I can't stand modern-day settings. I like a bit of fantasy in what I RP.

5. What do you like to write about - not write about?
I like to write about humorous situations or thoughts, I hate writing death scenes (even though I'm pretty good at writing them) and romance (I'm absolutely ham-fisted at writing romance, and I also hate it in itself).

6. Whats your favorite thing about Mizahar so far?
THE JAMOURA. Knowledge-collecting giant apes with chameleon powers and ancestral memory access? OYEAH!

7. What, if anything, has frustrated you about Mizahar so far?
The fact that the character sheet took so long to fill out, and the way that there doesn't seem to be any set system for leveling skills.

8. What would you like out of the mizahar experience?
A fun time and a bit of a break from the asshattery and general poor literacy and attitudes I find on GaiaOnline.com, the only other place I consistently text-RP.

9. Is there anything you'd like to see expanded?
I'd definitely like to see some expansion to the wikia, and perhaps a page that simply lists links to every single thing a beginner needs. Most of the time spent filling out my character profile was actually just me trying to look things up.

10. Anything else you want to talk about?
I spilled Gatorade on my keyboard a while back and while it still functions some letters are a bit sticky. Not sticky as in 'glitched' or 'occasionally type double,' I mean that the fact that I use a laptop keyboard means that the metal springs that cause the keys to return to their original positions are physically damaged by the congealed sugar, so they sometimes won't hit. The most common two are 'q' and 'l,' though 'w' is a pain at times, too. I also run a Vista and Chrome (yes, I've heard the stories about Vista, most apply to me) and for some reason everything over roughly nine-point font pixellates, as if it's been overlaid with a photomosaic effect. Therefore, I will always post IC in nine-point font, which despite having the code
Code: Select all
[size=85][/size]
I still think of as nine-point thanks to Gaia. Also, I have severe anger management and ADHD, I take meds but I tend to get irritable and bitchy when they wear off, usually around 9:30 to 10 pm EST. Anything I say after that that pisses you off is something I will regret later, and I would appreciate it if those words aren't held against me for very long.

Hi

Welcome to Mizahar, Oro! People here tend to shorten names like that, you'll find. Do not take it amiss. Especially after 9:30, 10 PM... ;)

There are definitely some differences between the system here and other places, but don't let it frustrate you too much. It's just a matter of getting accustomed to them.

Have fun reading all the lore! See you around.
