Name: Your friendly neighborhood mod Jenny, formerly, anciently, maji.
Who Are You Playing?: Kindergarten Teacher/Serial Killer Oliver Goodliffe @ goodglyph and Serial Killer/Statue of Liberty Costume Wearing Roadside Sign Twirler Jupiter Quigley @ gasgiant
Sort Yourself!: I am a Hufflepuff of the Ernie MacMillan Being A Dick To Harry Over Cedric Diggory During The Triwizard Tournament variety. I am probably?? A Horned Serpent or Thunderbird. IDG Ilvermorny. My Peckenpaugh house is MOTHGARDEN because I am a shithead who hates monotony and can't eat the same thing three days in a row. I am also very DEEPLURK, though, because I an ENFP and Deeplurk is a very ENFP House.
What Are Your Pets Names?:Abe and Gogo are my very personalityful roommates
Is Cereal Soup?: Any liquid you eat with a spoon is a soup fight me.
Soda or Pop?: Pop, which I say with that Pittsburghese super nasal ah sound. Pawp.
How Long Have You Been RPing?: Jiminy Fuckmas. I started when I was twelvish, which is now more than twenty years ago 😬 and I've been running games of some sort for about that long. I took a break from online RP in 2009ish but was still doing tabletop, then came back in 2016/17 for gooseberryhigh. My journal usernames have always been bad. Back on greatestjournal I played a werewolf head boy whose username was chewsonchairs.
Other Genres and Settings: I. Love. Tabletop. I will always have a soft spot for the mega-broken D&D 3.5e and the absurd characters you can build in it, but I enjoy 5e and Pathfinder as well. I love number crunchy systems, but have also enjoyed various one pager rules lite games from the internet, Monster Hearts and the Dragon Age setting.
Aside from that, I got my start with AOL chatroom RP and Sailor Moon roleplaying in the late nineties via email and message board, which was... just...an absurd community. MUCK and MUSH RP, usually set in X-Men. Dabbled in Digimon, did my own "pan-fandom" Final Fantasy game (Final Fantasy High School dafjkhgadlkjf) and eventually made the jump to Harry Potter journal games. I'd say Sailor Moon and Harry Potter have always been my big two. The only true canon characters I can play are Ron Weasley, Ramza Beoulve from Final Fantasy Tactics and Sailor Venus and honestly knowing that probably explains a lot about all of my characters.
RP Style: Logs and threading are my bread and butter! I love being able to edit in logs, and like that you can weave tags between two or more people together when you're writing things in gdocs. That said, I know that drive some people crazy lol so I only do it if my writing partner is comfortable with it. I am quite bad at comment RP and get overwhelmed very quickly in shitposts afdjhdfl, but I still enjoy the flow of it! It takes me a while, but I always try to reply everyone.
My narrative tags tend to be uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh very long and I feel super bad about that always and know I need an editor. I 100% LOVE ALL TAGS and don't care if the person tagging me back responds to my 2 paragraphs with a sentence and a half. When I'm threading, I like when scenes have a clear flow with a beginning and end. If a thread feels like it's really going somewhere, I will tag it for as long as it takes to reach its natural conclusion, even if that's multiple weeks. I also don't mind if a thread is only 6 posts total or 40, as long as we're all having fun. (Also I guess I should mention that I can and have literally back tag comment threads for an entire game.)
Favorite Tropes/Lines: FOUND FAMILY. FOUND FAMILY. FOUND FAMILY. FOUND FAMILY. I love playing big brothers, either Actual Older Brothers or Big Brother Types. Friendships are my faves, especially inseparable best friends. My characters tend to Go Hard, whatever they're doing. I like happy endings!! Romance line-wise, I ADORE friends-to-lovers, rivals-to-lovers and idiots-to-lovers. Gimme dat strong basis of mutual affection and respect blossoming into something more hell yeah.
Favorite Faces: Matt Bennett and Alia Bhatt are very, very, veryvery dear to me and are sort of inseparable from the characters I put them to. :'( I would love to use Avan Jogia and Darren Criss again. Benjamin Wadsworth, Letitia Wright, Louis Garrel and Go Ah-Sung are faces I'd like to use, although IDK if I have the capacity to play the smarm Benjamin Wadsworth projects. I swear to fuckin' god I'm gonna use Aneurin Barnard some day, but IDK if it'll be this game.
Favorite Character Archetypes: S A D. P A L A D I N S. I am weak for a lawful good character with a soft heart. I personally enjoy playing, as I mentioned, big brother types. I like playing shitheads and space aliens and I often explore loneliness and isolation as character beats. Gruff and grumpy old professor is a character type I don't get to play much in high school games but hey now Alex and I can torment players with an entire staff of old professors.
Inspirations: Most of my characters come about because I see a meme or a youtube video and I'm like "How can I ...make this into a terrible character?" Generally I start with a vague idea of how I want the character to be, and whatever major events happened to them to make them that way. I tend to have a good idea of the character's personality and life before I decide on a PB, which makes PB hunting a horribly painful process for me because I get really picky sigh.
Anything Else?: I meant to write up my responses before the meme went up and then I DID NOT.
