Oh boy here we go. HI GUYS. This is Chel aka Bruce Banner / [personal profile] angermanaging with, first, some sad news. I've dropped Willow-- I need to absolutely minimize my RP obligations right now, and I've played her extensively before and she's a lot less settled into the game than Bruce is, so she got the axe. Instead I've apped in...

Miles Vorkosigan from an old, long running sci fi adventure book series by Lois McMaster Bujold. I expect many of you don't know much about him, so, in brief-- he's a 4'8" tall manic depressive former covert ops military commander from a planet with an old Russian feudal social system. So yes, he's complicated. He's also (very) personally familiar with clones, so that'll be fun. If you want any more information about him, it's in his app, of course!

I strongly encourage people to notice and comment on his height and odd appearance if it's IC for your character. He will expect it, honestly. But he will probably just take it as a challenge instead of an insult. :)

Anyway, Miles lives in ME-2C and I'm ohgod terrified THRILLED to be playing him, so let me know if anyone wants to set something up!

Eee, Miles! What's your canon point? (Besides post-Memory which I gather from former covert ops + seizure disorder.)

Hi, I'm Stareyes and I play Tazendra here (from Steven Brust's Dragaera novels), as well as Zelgadis Graywords (the Slayers anime) and Iroh (Avatar: the Last Airbender).

(Sadly, while Zel and Iroh would notice, Tazendra's particular subset of humanity are around 7-8 feet tall; as far as she's concerned, Miles might be part of the normal variation of heights of people who aren't her.)

True, though Tazendra's own inclinations aren't towards Miles's type, sadly. She might still find the whole thing amusing (and is probably unobservant enough to totally miss any hints, sorry).
