Intro oh god what am I doing

[umbrael]

Hey guys! A friend pointed this game out to me awhile back and one thing led to another and i'm here now. enablers, man...

Anyway! I am Rex - you can reach me on AIM as koolsnowball, or on plurk as Rexboxone, and I am here with an OC of mine named Umbrael!

His orignal self is... It's impossible to explain without sounding ridiculous so here we go: He's a god of darkness and shadows. Also a dinosaur. Sort of. He can turn into a human form because what ancient godlike spirit can't, honestly? He is also a grouchy son-of-a-bitch who used to solve problems with death and violence until his brother performed an intervention and got him to try practicing that 'diplomacy' thing. He has a short temper, is frustrated and bored of history repeating itself and mortals making dumb choices, hates birds, hates were-animals, thinks 99% of the people he talks to are idiots, has difficulty admitting his own flaws out loud, and is fantastically terrible with modern technology. He is the oldest, crotchetiest old man when it comes to anything electrical with too many buttons (read: more than two buttons).

Fortunately for me his reincarnation is less of a colossal asshole. Just kind of a normal, bitter one. He does tech support calls for a company I've been too scattered to specify just yet (and what better hell for a violent angry god than customer service?) He's going to be pretty skeptical of this whole echo thing up until weird shit starts happening directly to him, and then he's going to freak out a little because shockingly he finds it hard to buy into aliens and past lives and big dragon gods, and having to accept that is a hell of a shift for him. Also you numbers guys are all insane.

If I haven't lost anyone yet/if you want to read more about the life and times of magic dinosaurs and their sad reincarnates, his app is here!

And... yes... Hi... ouo;;

So I hear we're fighting giant 2-legged snakes this month that sounds pretty crazy right?

Hello and welcome to the game, Rex.

I'm Joc & I play an original character known as Sandrath -- a fallen arch-angel by his world's terms -- but better known in-game as Xander Jarle, a former soldier turned baker.

It's nice to meet you and your dark deity.

[umbrael]

Greetings and thank you, fellow OC player! :D I am glad to be here! I can't wait to thread with some other OCs, it's been some time since I've done that. :D

[dominateartimus]

You're welcome and that's good to hear. I look forward to threading with Umbrael as well.

Also the icon you used for your intro post scared me because I didn't realize it was animated and I thought my brain was playing tricks on me!

[scramasax]

Hello and charming to have you, Rex~

I'm Blue, and I'm currently playing the reincarnations of Anthony from the video game Eternal Darkness, Holy Roman Empire messenger boy turned zombie, now sixteen-year-old goodie-goodie and serious also-zombie; and Rarity from My Little Pony, unicorn pony fashion mogul, in this life a hornless pet pony named Cinderella.

A big welcome and I shall look forward to seeing you about, and may you have an exceptional time with us - or in other words find it more than sufficiently well worth your expectations in having taken the recommendation! XD

[umbrael]

/)u_u(\ thank you!

And omg you're the Rarity player! :D Yes I am sure I will have fun once I get over the new-game-jitters 8D

Hi! I'm Lucy with two! The first Aradia Megido from Homestuck, reincarnated as Aria Megido. She's a fairly cheerful and friendly girl who likes history and a variety of nerdy things, and she lives with her sister in Japantown. She's 16 and therefore a high school student, though she also works part-time at her grandmother's antique shop (also in Japantown) and does occasional babysitting gigs.

The second is Toph Beifong from Avatar, reincarnated as Sophie Bai, 13-year-old middle school student. She's sort of blunt and snarky still, but also is more polite and willing to work with people/ask for help in her current incarnation, partly because her family support system is a lot more awesome and less overprotective. She's still blind, and has a cane, although she got back her foot-sight recently. She's still practicing it.

[umbrael]

Eee, Aradia! ... and Toph, though I mostly know of her from clips and gifs, she seems pretty awesome 8D and I was curious how you did the blind thing

Hi! :D

[ursoreckless]

Hello Rex and welcome to the game!

I'm Alec and I play this guy here - Sho from the movie Moon Child. In his past life, he was a street rat that grew up to be a mob boss and then was turned into a vampire by his BFF. In this life, he is a trust fund baby that is avoiding all those pesky things called responsibilities by slumming in America with his fancy sports car and his cosplay outfits.

[umbrael]

Thank you!

Oh boy I think Umbrael would love your guy (this is sarcastic he would probably glare at you and your money and your fancy sports car in a way that is no way envious well maybe a little envious)

[ursoreckless]

Well, maybe it make him happy to know that once the Echoes really start working on Shou, he will lose at lot of that ease with money he has now. Because well.

Street rat orphan that clawed his way to a mob boss in China while he is Japanese? Yeah not the kind of guy that likes hand outs.

BUT FOR NOW he is a rich party boy and I am so not stealing any of Gackt's own personal history for this oh no.

[not_good_not_wicked]

Sup Rex. I'm Eric. Umbral sounds interesting. I'm especially interested in that were-animals comment, as I just apped a werewolf.

So I'll have Angua, the aforementioned werewolf/cop, soon. I also play Marisa the obnoxious witch and Sadao Maou the demon lord working for McDonalds. I think a dinosaur god of darkness will fit in nicely.

[umbrael]

Thanks! :D As a heads up it's not like 'kill all werewolves' hate, but he is very bitter about the history his group and theirs had on his world, and how not every conflict between them ended in his favour. They're also harder to deal with than humans and that makes him mad >C.

ANYway yes, it seems like he will! Demon lord working for McDonalds? What'd they do in their past life?

[not_good_not_wicked]

Either way, CR is CR, right?

The demon lord who works at McDonald's had a very different past life. In his past life, he was a demon lord who works at "MgRonald's". Very significant difference.

[waltharius]

Ooh, god of darkness and shadows? This guy's preincarnation was pretty familiar with a similar deity. FUN FUN

ANYWAY HELLO I am Zae, and it's very nice to meet you, Rex! I play Wander from Shadow of the Colossus, now known as Walter Price, a massively dorky straight-laced teenager. Welcome!

[umbrael]

Familiar good or familiar bad? ouo;

wait Shadow of the Colossus... I should know this but... i... haven't played the game yet. ;u;'.
