So, with this many old faces and names I remember, and my boredom as we wait for plot devices and storylines to be rolled out, I am curious.
Tell me about yourself.
Now, really, I don't care too much about your life story, just basic info about you, especially pertaining to RP/Forum writing. I'd like to be caught up to speed to what has been going on in terms of the RP community and where everyone is at.
Ahem.
My name is Anthony (or Anth to those who have Rp'd with me.) I will be 25 in July, and I am part of the First Generation of Forum Rpers. I was part of the large RP community that got Kicked off the Koei Forums almost 10 years ago, and played on the first real RP Forum site, Clan Wars. From there, I was a major member of Romance of the 4 Kingdoms, an Rp site of fabled legends and bad writing haha. I played Peabodysan, a half-angel warrior, who started as an Assassin for the Dark Knights and eventually fought the Unholy Trinity by leading the Golden Knights. From there, I moved to Forsaken Era, and Yi Yo Yang, and so on. After High school and such I went to Med School, after graduating, surinf and getting a girlfriend, I didn't write much. Basically popped up whenever I got the "itch" to write. Randomly on Rot3k sites, or Open Fantasy with my brothers from first gen. Nothing ever too serious. Then Matt Sr. (Good friend and roommate), told me about this site and how "Writers from 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th gen will be on there, and it looks promising." So I figured I'd pop on and see what RP was like these days and If I still had the chops.
Currently in San Diego with Sr. Still got my imaginary award for Best Good Guy in an RP Site. Easy to reach on Facebook, PM, or various messengers. Looking forward to writing with you all, again and for the first time.

Anth! I need to somehow find a reason to interact with Zhang Liao. Our brief stint on Suns of Fate got cut short -- unacceptable.

Very nice Anthony, I actually didn't know all of Peabodysan's history, so I found that intriguing. My name is Mikey, well my actual name is Michael, but I go by Mikey for two reasons. 1.) I was incredibly young when I started writing in this community. 2.) There were two other Mikes in the community already. (Mortiss and another Michael on Betrayals) I began, like some of us, on Sagas when I followed a link in the Koei forums to the Sagas of the Three Kingdoms roleplay. This was back in late 2004. I was a nine year old at the time. I could go on and on--I've had a nice roleplay career. I've been active for 8 years, moving from rp to rp, creating some of them, helping run others. My most famous character (and the most famous original character in this community) is Ba Zeng, whom I use quite often. He was the Zen leader on all 4 Betrayals sites. I'm very happy that a lot of the first generation rpers are here to join us for this site. I myself am a 2nd generation (I suppose?) rper, and having the likes of Erik, Anthony, Dan, Alex and others as guidance back in the day was a real help. I recall telling you Anth that it was because of how you rped Zhao Yun on Betrayals 1 that made me stick to roleplaying, so I owe my current writing abilities and skills to you. I'm now 17, I will soon be 18 and I will be attending my first term of college in the fall. I am already accepted to the university of my choice to study astrophysics. I am a cellist of 8 years and I have also been an editor of a magazine for 8 months.

Well obviously I'm a legend. Yup its not easy being as great as me I'm one of the originals, I was Onikage on the Koei Forums before I was banned. I can't actually remember the reason why but I was a pretty mouthy teenager, thank goodness i grew out of that I then joined on the clan thing as Mortis, a follower of Alomovo's (Alex) branch of the Dark Brotherhood. (Note the single 's' in Mortis) Well when Dan then made ROT4K I was one of the first ones on there, I originally signed up as Mortis BUT i forgot my password and didn’t bother to get a new one so I just made a new account and thus Mortiss was born. I was involved in most of the major plotlines as Mortiss, I was a dedicated follower of Alomovo's Wei Kingdom until I underwent the Ceremony of Darkness when the Demon 'Torment' was transplanted into my soul. That twisted Mortiss and he became spiteful and vengeful, he was always annoyed that no matter how hard he trained he could never beat Alomovo in a duel. They started off friendly but over time they became deadly fights for survival as Mortiss refused to lose. Eventually it all came to a head at Xu Chang when Mortiss destroyed Alomovo's palace, the two of them fought and Alomovo killed him. BUT Mortiss' brother 'Underdark' managed to extract a piece of his soul which he then brought into physical essence, the creature that was born from this ritual was 'Creature' a maniac whose sole purpose was the eradication of Alomovo and his kin. Creature was hired by the Golden Knights to help them fight the Trinity. It turned out though for Almovo had not actually killed Mortiss, he had merely stolen his soul, this was given to Creature by the Grim Reaper and Creature ate it transforming him into Mortiss once more, only this time with far greater power than he previously had. Next came Forsaken and then Emptiness and then a few other short lived sites. I played Mortiss again, mainly as a complete loose cannon who would fight anybody regardless of good and evil, sometimes he would be hired by the bad guys and sometimes he would be hired by the good guys. He always remained neutral though throughout the struggles, he was more interested in having a good fight then anything else so he would happily take on the Uber Bad Guys (Played by Dan and Alex). He was never killed during this period but he didn't win all his fights, he used a trick where he would sink into the ground and flee when things turned nasty. Then came Saga's, I went on as Mortiss again. This time it was a more realistic version where he no longer had Dragonball Z type powers. He joined Wei and pissed everyone off with his arrogance, he even went as far as to challenge Alex, Brian and Matt Jr to a 3 on 1 duel. Myself and Alex had an awesome plan to overthrow Cao Cao and take over Wei but before we could put our plans into effect I was banned. Well then came Betrayals etc etc etc etc and I pretty much played Mortiss in various variations. In fact I played Mortiss so much I ended up naming the variations. Classic Mortiss is V1. Sagas Mortiss is V2. Betrayals Mortiss is V3. Fantasy Mortiss is V4. I have played other characters but I like Mortiss, he is a bad ass and he is fun to RP with. ;D Though I have made more than a few enemies as Mortiss, but thats the way I like it. Everyone wants to kill him and that suits him fine. So yeah that’s pretty much me, despite what Mikey says it is in fact ME! MORTISS! who is THE most famous created character, Ba Zeng has nothing on Mortiss. FACT!! (Added) Career highlights -Getting banned from Koei -Getting baned from Sagas -Beating Vash in a 2 post duel. -Double Blades of Dysfunction -Wrath of Mortiss -Being awesome

Mortiss' feats: melting into the ground and trying to have intercourse with everything.
Ba Zeng's feats: Demolishing the entire Wei army at Yi Yang, super amazing rivalry with Sima Yi (Jorge) which was called epic by Erik, Ryuu and everyone, was apart of 'Zhao' which won Chronicles of Destiny in 2005, having crazy ass strategies like using trenches and archer boats to siege a castle, tricking the enemy into lighting their own lines on fire, had a giant site-wide strategy rivalry with Sin Zho (Josh) on Betrayals 2.
I think this calls for a poll...

Anth! I need to somehow find a reason to interact with Zhang Liao. Our brief stint on Suns of Fate got cut short -- unacceptable. Tell me about it man, I was just getting warmed up over there and then it kinda died, as usual haha. Here's hoping we can have some epic interactions on this site. I never get tired of hearing that story Mikey. ;D I am just glad it inspired you to keep going and develop your writing skills. We need someone to keep the torch going when us fogeys finally stop writing, though to be honest, Lord knows when that will be haha! Here we go..... Though you were a Wei fighter like me, and a solid addition to the Golden Knights. That Fight with you, Arcia, Me and Chaos against Dan in the Amenti Gravesite, good fucking times. Whoa, whoa, whoa.... So the Bragging begins huh? Peabodysan's Feats: -Master assassin of Dark knights on Koei, who killed for Krimson, the leader, dueling older RP legends like Jking and CB. -Founded the Assassin's guild, soon to become the Golden Knights. -Served as the Invading commander against Shu on ROT4K against Shu Qui Mao -Found the Sword of Time with Liu Xian, Andy, Zechariah and Krimson -Lead the Golden Knights against the Unholy Trinity (and won) -Only person I know who beat Alex in a duel using his rule system -Lead Yin to many victories and duels against Yang, including finally bringing down Amenti. -Me, steve, pedro and Alex took out Dan in Yi Yo Yang -Best Good Guy in the RP awards -VIP member of the Flaming Penguin Night Club -Put up with Rich for years Just saying, I got a decent resume That's why your first gen brother I feel like this is like a bar, where a bunch of old friends are meeting and trading beers and war stories. I got a million of 'em. Hoping to make a million more

Alright alright we heard enough of all you old timers, move along for us fresh faced rpers k boys Well I'm Harley amongst the possibly dozen or so female Rpers in this community. I've been roleplaying for almost 9 years since 2004 of June, but I definitely didn't start with ROTK/DW/SW sites. I started off on sites such as myspace and what not I usually roleplayed anime's and fantasy's opting for crossovers and weird original fantasy's. My first Dynasty Warriors site... well I couldn't really tell you because to be honest I don't even remember, since this is such a small community I assume I may have run into a few of you first generation boys, but because of how paranoid I was of the internet world (at that time news reports of girls being tricked and abducted were flooding the media) so I never revealed my true name nor my true gender. When people asked what to call me in OOC threads I always told them to call me by my character name so sometimes people knew me as a 'he' or a 'she' I never cared to share anything about myself at those times and RPing for me was just a way to better myself as a writer (and boy did it show on my English essay's, I went from a C essay writer to an A+ essay writer my teachers were like wtf since it was such a drastic change). I think my first DW site was around 2005 making me a 3rd gen 4th gen I dunno, I don't really care, but what I do know is that my first memorable site was DWRPC. When I first joined I had an original male character in Wu and I believe I stop RP-ing because the Sun Ce of that time was too controlling and there was WAY too much drama happening with the admins and for the most part within the Wu faction so I immediately stopped showing up and moved on to other genre's of RPing and left DW rping to one again social media sites since people weren't as egotistical there After A few years I decided to return to the DW scene (DWRPC) which is when I got to meet people like Colby, Yanos, Jack... Tai and so much more (and as much as I would LOVE to mention you all I can't). Ever since then I've been jumping from site to site since. I'm probably most noted for my tough girl or seductress like characters, I have played males plenty of times, but those were mostly on social networking sites or during the time I was an anonymous writer. In terms of personal life there really isn't much to say. My time is usually spent buried beneath a textbook while posting or chatting away on fb. When I'm done multi-tasking it's usually me going to the library and doing proper studying. I guess the rest isn't really important unless you want to know.

Uhh, I'm Kyle and I'm hot; fuck you guys.
No but really, I don't have a whole lot to say here? I've mostly been eye candy for the sites I've been on, trolling around OOC areas and such for years. Suddenly I decided that maybe this whole writing thing was cool and good to do and shit and then I became a pretty decent writer and made sweet man-love to Justin. Now I'm here playing characters that everyone else would never play -- you're all welcome.

Ok...
I'm Erik and I have first started this thing off around the time the ROT4K site was dying and Alex and Dan created Forsaken Era. I was on a halfass site with Jorg having fun there, until I was invited by Dan to join FE and be ruler of Necropolis. I played there until it's death and rolled into Saga's thanks to Matt Sr. I was Liu Bei there and help build the site with Matt and Sleipner. I eventually got kicked out and banned cause I was peeking in the secret chambers of sleipner and rei shin and because my Shu soldiers pulled on their dicks and fired a wall of sperm over the Wu soldiers.
After that I was in Betrayals and some ROT3K sites and fantasy sites, but after betrayal i lost interest mostly and kinda quit. Now I'm back and happy to see familiair faces and new faces. Means we r not the only one having this strange little hobby and that our hobby is actually being supported by more people! Oh happy days!

ROT4K never died it was just replaced by Forsaken. Forsaken never died it was just replaced by Empty Lands. If Dan had just stuck with one site and updated it rather than replacing it then it would have lasted at least 3 years. If you think about ti ROT4K was up for like 1 and a 1/2 years and Forsaken lasted a good year plus the 6 months that Empty Lands was around. Anyway those kind of life spans are unheard of in todays market, I blame Sagas for that. Yeah the writing wasn't great but you have to remember that we had nothing to base ourselves on, we were all working in the dark. Dan really invented the system that we use and then Alex and everyone copied what Dan was doing. Then when Xian (I should remember his real name but can't, Dave?) made his first ROT3K battle site that system of Role Playing transferred over which is where Sleipner started off. When Xians site died Sleipner made Sagas using an updated system that he based off Xians which was based off Dans. Then every site that followed Sagas used that same system. Every ROTK site can be traced back to us and our bad writing. But the point is we didnt know better, we were pretty much making it up as we went along because we had nothing to copy. Also everyone who was on those sites has great memories of them and they were fantastically active, you could go on at pretty much anytime and see people Role Playing.
