I'm resigning. I do apologize if this inconveniences anyone, but it seems that this just isn't working out for me. I am tired of trying to contact people who don't seem to want to talk to me and struggling to understand a game where nothing much happens.

Have fun! This journal will probably not exist by the end of the week, so it's in people's best interests to de-friend it ASAP.

-Sam

Can we talk about what we want to do next?

Sam aka Armand-mun

Hey everyone! Yeah so, brace yourselves for... a newb?! I go by Pattra, and I will be bringing you Yuu Kanda, a character from the anime/manga D.Gray-Man. I'll try my best to bring you as much of this anti-social, sword-crazed, long-haired boy into this RP as possible~

As for myself, I'm just a student who has way too much time on her hands. I love music and the violin, but all in all I don't have too much to say about myself that would be interesting. So anyway, I hope to RP with you all soon!

Hi all,

I'd like to extend my thanks to those of you who took part in last night's Mirrorium chat. Lauren and I are sorry that it got started late (our fault!), but were glad to see those of you who spent some time in the room.

For the most part, we (the mods) think the chats are a good way for people to get to know each other, to work out future plot points, and to bring any questions or concerns to the table for general discussion. We also hope to keep these chats going in the future -- preferably once every other week or so, and maybe more often as the game progresses. Which brings me to my point: when should we schedule the next chat? Please feel free to comment here with best (and worst) possible days and/or times (please make all times Eastern Standard, as I suck at math and time zones) so we can schedule a chat that will work best for the majority of our participants.

Thanks again for those of you who have taken part in the chats. Also, I'd like to thank everyone for sticking with us so far! I know the game has had a somewhat slow start, and that's partially my fault; I'm big into the intrigue factor, which takes time, and the other mods have only recently convinced me that we need to move the plot a little faster for the sake of the game. We're working on that now.

While I'm here, I'd like to stress that you all should be talking to one another to arrange logs and plot points of your own. Also, if you'd like to pimp out the game (the more the merrier, of course), please feel free to do so. Finally, please don't hesitate to contact any of the mods with questions or concerns. We're happy to help!

Happily ever after ad inifinitum (^_~),

Ren

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that I probably won't be able to join everyone in the chat on Monday. I'll be at work until nine and then I'm more than likely going to be crashing at my relatives' house. They have internet access, but not AIM. So, if someone could log for me that would be GREAT! I'm kinda sad that I can't make it though -sniff- especially since I'm playing Virginia. Hmph.

No worries, I shall be making another post in Virginia's journal soon.

Ja, everyone!

Hello to everyone. I'm Rachael and I will be playing for Cho Hakkai from the manga series Saiyuki. I'm very familiar with the character, and this is my third journal for a Hakkai for a LJ RP. Never fear, though! I will do my best to keep them all straight. ^_~ 

As for a little personal information about myself, I'm a student on the East Coast of the US. I'm very into the performance arts including ballroom dancing, piano, and opera. English and foreign language (specifically French and Japanese) are also passions of mine. 

I think short and sweet is best for this introduction. I look forward to getting to know you all!

Hola! I'm Victoria and bringing to the table the wonderful marquis de Carabas, from Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere. I've never before attempted to play the marquis, so I'm still getting a feel for and working out all the kinks in his character and my interpretation of it.

I love the 10th Kingdom with a passion, and currently own the VHS tapes (which suck, because they cut out Wolf's psychiatrist scene and the bacon sandwich bit), because I'm too lazy to go out and by the things on DVD. I couldn't name my favorite character, because all of them are equally awesome (though I think Wendell is especially cool). Um... what else? I live in San Francisco (not really, but in a close suburb, and if I told you what it was called you'd have never heard of it). My fandoms include anything of GNeil's or Terry Pratchett's, Harry Potter, Lost, and Pirates of the Caribbean. I'm big into fanfic (both reading and writing), but I'll be the first to admit that grammar/spelling nazi I most certainly ain't. In fact, there is probably a typo in this very post.

And that's all, because I really can't think of much else to say.

<3
Me (Victoria)

Greetings and salutations! My name is Tasha and I will be playing the lovely Virginia. I'm excited to be apart of this RP and can't wait to see what things are in store plot-wise.

So, a bit about myself. Hm. Well, I'll be twenty in four days so...GO ME! I live in the south and I hate it fiercely, the north is so much better in my opinion. I looooove music, especially Bree Sharp (check her out!), Imogen Heap, and Jem. Fantasy, sci-fi, and weirdness are some of the things I live for. It gets me through the day sometimes.

Hm. Right now my mother is storming through the house trying to locate my escapee of a brother. Apparently he slipped out his window or something. ...Just a bit of  randomness for ya. (Oh! I don't live <i>with</i> my parents. I just live next door. xD)

I was introduce to The 10th Kingdom last November and I fell in love with it. My friend, Chelsea, came over and was like, "we're watching this! It's eight hours long but I don't care! We're watching it!". I don't really have a favorite character because I love them all equally. Though, my favorite town is Kissing Town.

Let's see. Fandom wise I enjoy: X Files, X-Men (mostly the cartoons), Xena, Mutant X, Labyrinth, 10th Kingdom (of course), Farscape, Dark Crystal, Mirrormask, House, CSI Vegas, LaO:SVU, and Lost. I'm more of an old school tv/movie/toy/book/music sorta gal though.

Okay I suppose that's enough for now. I can't wait to play with you all!

Hello all!

Sorry I haven't written more, it's the last weeks of school and I'm almost finished (thank god). So I thought I'd come out and introduce myself, my name is Marumae you all can call me Mar or Maru, I play Candy, Virginia's friend from the 10th Kingdom.

Now about me, well I attend a local community college. I love to write (and am almost currently writing so many different novels that I have yet to finish...*cough*) The 10th Kingdom was a movie I came across after it had first come out on video. I missed the original airing of it (a serious fault of NBC I believe it *could* have been good with the right advertising) and heard about it later and rented it and fell in love. I am into fanfiction and reading in general, as well as movies, musicals as well and video games. Most of my tastes in media tend towards fiction only, while I will watch a rare few non fiction television shows or movies. Right now I'm playing Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones.

As for fandom, I was into Labyrinth for way too long a good many years and still am some what. Phantom of the Opera, Wicked, Clive Barker's Abarat too. I like Heroes, Supernatural, Kyle XY, Ugly Betty. Occasionally Ghost Whisperer and even Bones, (edit) how could I forget Doctor Who ? I'm only on season one though, I was late in the game. As you can see I dip my interests in a bunch of different fandoms.

I fiddle on AIM on the IM name Callas Lear, Rukia Entranced and on MSN under marumae @ hotmail dot com. It's nice to meet everyone!

Since everyone else seems to be doing it...

I'm Mary and I play the simply succulent, sometime snappish Scarlett (ladyxscarlett). She's a sweetheart, though, I promise. Unless of course you catch her on the night of the full moon.

Let's see...I love the 10th Kingdom and have for years. My favorite character is Wolf and I'm kind of obsessed with the Second Kingdom and wished we could have seen more of it in the mini series. I also love Buffy, Harry Potter, LOST, Supernatural, Veronica Mars, Coupling, Dr. Who, the Office, and several other television shows and movies. I am unnaturally obsessed with broadway musicals and have an ipod almost entirely devoted to just show tunes.

If you ever want to reach me, you can find me on AIM (Childoffae) or email (mpedevillano@gmail.com). I'm online Monday-Friday from 9:30am-5:30pm EST (email/livejournal only) and at night from 10pm to about 1am EST.

I like it when people lead by example, which is why I'm not a leader.

Anyway, I'm Sam. I play Armand St. Just here (in case the journal wasn't a dead giveaway). The lame namish name is because this is a very old journal (which didn't see much use) meant for a serious roleplay more than a year ago. We were all trying for variants of actual character names. I like the journal name I use for him on the Desperate games better (sweariwontdie), because its actually a quote from a musical, but I wasn't about to try to juggle a third journal so here he is until I can afford a rename key.

My regular journal is reynardbleu. I'm trained as a librarian and have a bachelor's degree in English. This is important because it means I care about language very much. I try very hard, and fail as much as the next person if I'm in a hurry or such, to get my grammar and spelling correct.

I've loved The Scarlet Pimpernel probably since just before the musical came out. Even though I barely remember the first performance I saw of it (I was terribly sick that weekend and paid more attention to suppressing my coughs and unwrapping cough drops without disturbing the house than the stage, sad to say), I fell in love with Armand. I read the book, and was horribly disappointed. Then I heard about and read Eldorado, one of the sequels. It's mostly about Armand and is the source the writers of the musical used for his 'younger than his sister' 'age. If anyone is at all curious, I can provide links to etexts for many of Baroness Orczy's books and a summary of Eldorado. There's probably a good summary of the musical somewhere. It's not exactly the plot of any of the books, but it works very well.

Back to me. I read voraciously across many genres, watch anime though I pick and chose what I like despite what is critically accepted or popularity. Some of what I like is popular, some obscure. Sometimes I find and watch things just because a friend recommended it. I guess the newest thing I watched was Kyo Kara Maoh. The book I am re-reading right now is A Man Rides Through by Stephen R. Donaldson. It's one of my favorite comfort reads. The last new book I read was Exultant by Stephen Baxter. My favorite movie is Dr. Zhivago. My favorite wide-realease animated film is Don Bluth's Anastasia. My favorite musical is Les Miserables. My favorite play is Moon for the Misbegotten by Eugene O'Neill. I don't watch a lot of television, so it's hard to name a favorite current show. Probably Doctor Who even though I can't watch the current season legally yet.

If that doesn't give you enough insight to the inside of my head, feel free to peruse the public parts of my journal. I am a quite bit older than the average roleplayer on LJ. This is because my own writing goes very slowly, and I never get enough feedback. Roleplaying is dynamic and interactive and fun.

I'm here to have fun, and our lovely mods have put something together for us that looks to be just that.

Because I have no original ideas of my own, I'm following in Joan's footsteps. So! In this corner, standing at a laughable five feet two-point-five inches, weighing in at xxx pounds... Ren, the short mod! Woooo!

Anyway, I play Isadora, the Queen of the eighth kingdom (a recent addition to the 9-K royals, strictly speaking). Um. I'm pretty much always available, except when I'm not. Most of my time these days is spent at work (boo on the real world!), but I'm the poster child for net addiction and tend to check my email once an hour (or more!) anyway. So yeah, I'm always available by email, and my AIM-name (KageOtogi) is pretty much always around, even if I'm not. Leave me a message, and I'll get back to you. ^_~

Unlike Joan, I have absolutely no excuse for having put off the introduction for so long. I hope you all will forgive me anyway. *heart*

Also, while I'm here! The next Meet&Greet chatroom is scheduled for tonight. The chat will "officially" start at 7:00pm, EST, in the Mirrorium room (on AIM). I will be helping Joan pack, so I don't know if I'll be there when the fun actually starts, but do feel free to talk amongst yourselves! If you can't get into the chatroom on your own, just ask someone who is in the chatroom (whether it be a mod or someone else) for an invite.

Hope to see you in the chatroom, and I'm really looking forward to watching this game grow with you all!

Hey, y'all!

Our resident Armand St. Just realized that some of us might not have been properly introduced and I think that is a shame. If you don't know me already, my name is Joan and I play your friendly neighborhood sorceress! Er. Well, I'm friendly, even if she isn't. I'm also the indie mod here at mirrorium.

You can catch me online (domacatrix on AIM) most often in the afternoon and evening hours EST.

I probably should have introduced myself a whole lot sooner, but Elwood--that's my fish--and I are moving out of our apartment this evening and this is obviously a more constructive use of my time. ^_~. I absolutely hate to pack.

If there's anything else you want to know, like--I don't know--my favorite color, what I like to do in my spare time or how I would get off a desert island using only coconuts and twine, let me know!

Joan, the indie mod, here with an announcement!

Mirrorium is now open! I know, I am so not with the times~ Bad Joan! No biscuit! (This is not the announcement. This is just showing you how easily distracted I can be. But I blame the zombies. For real.)

Right, there was a point! And I'm getting to it, really~

We, the mods, would like to invite you all to a meet and greet to be held tomorrow evening, Sunday, April 15. Sort of a semi-introductory, pal around and learn cool things about one another type thing.

I have a hunch that the name of the chatroom will be "mirrorium" (without the quotation marks, of course) because we like to keep things simple.

Comments, questions, concerns? We are here for you!

edit by Ren: The meet and greet will start at 7:00pm, EST in the Mirrorium chatroom. If anyone has trouble accessing the chatroom without an invitation, please IM me (sn KageOtogi) and I'll do what I can to help you out. ^_^
