Curiosity killed the Kat...

...but satisfaction brought her back.

1. Name - or what you'd like to be called!

Hello all! Most people call me either Mana or Kat. Feel free to pick one.

2. What sort of RP experience do you have if any?

I've been RP'ing since I was twelve-ish. Then I got super busy filling out applications for uni, and now I finally have time to pick it back up again.

3. How did you find us?

I did a random google search. I think you're on the third page.

4. What sort of RP style is your favorite?

Fantasy is my favorite; s'why I found your site so appealing.

5. What do you like to write about - not write about?

Hmmm. I like writing in general. I don't like writing non-fiction or essays for school as much as I like roleplaying, though. RP really allows more creative freedom, I think.

6. What's your favorite thing about Mizahar so far?

I love that it's so detailed! It's taking a while to read all the material, but I like it. I'm also impressed by the fact that it seems so active. It's hard to find sites with a really active community.

7. What, if anything, has frustrated you about Mizahar so far?

I didn't realize you had to register for Mizahar and then register again for the forums. It was slightly frustrating. But only the tiniest bit.

8. What would you like out of the mizahar experience?

I'd just like to get back into RP'ing.

9. Is there anything you'd like to see expanded?

I haven't noticed anything yet. But that could change once I get more familiar with the site.

10. Anything else you want to talk about?

Are the characters pretty varied? I mean in terms of race... I imagine some races are more popular than others. What race should I play? Is there a particular race that is played by an overwhelming majority of people and vice versa? I was thinking maybe Drykas, but if other races are needed/preferred, I'd love to give one of them a go.

Looking forward to roleplaying with all of you!

There are approximately 8 billion Drykas in Mizahar (I round all my numbers to the nearest 8 billion).

What we -need- are more Dhani Constrictors in Zinrah. Check it out.

Welcome to Miz, and I look forward to seeing your posts over the next 8 billion days.

Haha. Eight billion, huh?

Well Dhani was actually my second choice, believe it or not, but since the page wasn't loading properly, I settled for Drykas. Awesome. Dhani it is.

I'll go see if the page wants to cooperate now. Thanks for the welcome!

Yessssss. Another set of fangs in the (extremely tiny) Dhani horde.

Don't fear the reaper, Taloba.

Hey, Kat!

Welcome!

We only have two registration processes. First one is for the main game... that's Mizahar the forums. The second is for Wiki access to edit etc and thats only because the software is incomparable. So you should actually only need to register for the main game (the forums) unless your interested in working on wiki material too (which goes through world development on the main forums anyhow)....

You just got cleverly confused because the Forum software looks so like the Wiki software thanks to Tarot's genius. :)

Welcome to Mizahar, Kat! Enjoy your stay!

The story of the separate logins for forums and wiki is actually a pretty long one. There are pieces of software to bridge the two, but the lesson I got out of the ordeal was to avoid them if it can be helped. Most people don't need a wiki account, as Goss said. :) I just need to make that clear in the wiki so people don't get (rightly) confused.
Tarot's thread tickets: sold out. Not accepting any more threads for the time being unless I promised you one. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Welcome Mana! Now I don't know why anyone would want to play something with scales or beady eyes but if you might change your mind I'm sure you're going to love playing a Nuit :D So far we only have a few active ones, you could count them in one hand. :( You'd be a great addition to our ranks!

:) I'm looking forward to RPing with you in whatever form you choose to play in. (hopefully you'll pick something without a pulse ;) )

@ Tarot and Gossamer: I seeeee. I mean I'm technologically challenged to begin with. I'm sure nobody else had that issue. =)

@ Cossette: I'll go investigate the Nuit page. The snippet sounded interesting. Are we allowed multiple characters? If things go well with my Dahni character, I may eventually want to play a Nuit as well.

So many options. Those cannibals sounded pretty cool, too. I may have to go eenie-meenie-minie-mo on this one.

Welcome, Kat!

I actually did the exact same thing as you did, making a wiki account first and then realizing it wasn't the same as a forum account. So, believe me, you're not alone. :)

By the way, considering everyone's luring you to play their race and pulling you this way and that, I feel like I might as well get my say. Did you know the Vantha are the coolest race in Mizahar? Literally and figuratively. You might want to consider them too. Not that the Dhani or Nuit aren't also great, they're just not as cool as the Vantha. ;)
