Hey all! JC here. You might remember me from such enduring hits as "that crazy guy who lit the city on fire that one time." Well finally, after something like 8 months of just playing Erskine, I got around to apping a second character!

This, as many of you may know at least in passing, is Arya from possibly the most miserable fantasy canon in mainstream pop culture, ASOIAF/Game of Thrones. I'm pulling Arya from book canon, most of the way through A Dance with Dragons, but I'm pretty sure GoT has spoiled everything already anyway so spoilers shouldn't be too big of an issue anymore.

ANYWAY. Arya is eleven years old, a tomboy, and enjoys murdering the people who've destroyed her family and her future. She lost almost all of her family in a giant horrible war, has seen more war atrocities than any child should have to see, and is currently blind (chemically induced) thanks to her training to become an assassin. And she'll probably call everyone on the turtle stupid at least once, because lbr she's eleven.

She also does this thing where she can tell if you're lying almost without fail, and as I've probably mentioned she comes with a passel of content/trigger warnings, so if you'd like to opt out of either the lying thing or tagging with her at all please head over here and let me know.

Looking forward to this :3

Hi guys! My name's Dirk, and I am completely and totally new to this community (though I'm old hat to journal-based roleplay). I'm 34 years old and apprentice as a beekeeper while I work (slowly) on getting an education in environmental science.

Anyway, today I'm bringing you LQ-84i, aka Bladewolf, from the Metal Gear Solid spin-off "Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance". He's an artificial intelligence that was developed specifically to replace human soldiers in armed combat, but since his creators never thought to instill a sense of brutality in him, he's a complete and utter failure as a weapon. He was activated by a private military force and was forced to work and kill for them for a short time, before being "rescued" (as in he was chopped into tiny little bits and then salvaged) by the game's protagonist, a Cyborg Ninja called Raiden.

Bladewolf is loyal, if snarky, and has immense curiosity about pretty much everything, and because of the way he was programmed, can't really tell people apart at first glance (he was programmed to recognize digital identification signatures, rather than remembering faces). He's an expert tracker, and can throw things with a three-fingered manipulator on the tip of his tail. He's coming to the turtle after having ridden in an experimental aircraft on the way to Pakistan to prevent an insane politician from starting World War III with a giant robot, and is carrying around a really fancy sword in his mouth.

Also? He's got a really cool character theme on the game's soundtrack.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to playing with you all! :-D
