Staff Introductions!

[Salvation]

I'm Ellen, 26 years old :D yay me *coughs* ok it's not really yay but I'm trying to be happy about it :-p So I'm from the Netherlands, people usually call me their crazy Dutchie, have no idea why maybe I should ask that soon :chin: Born and raised in the beautiful provence called Brabant and I reside in Rotterdam Lage Zwaluwe.

Ok my dislikes and likes :chin: I like to talk to a select group of people, even though my msn list is huge I seem to fall back on just a few people I really love to talk to. Than we have the RPG part of me, which I adore doing and than there's this part of me that's craving to start writing a book but yeah not having enough time to do that, now do I? So basically I'm an internet junkie doing nothing more then Chat on msn, rp my brains out, get on skype to have hilarious convo's, make websites, do graphics and well that's it really.

So I've been on several boards, mostly you could find me at CTP (sadly this board closed down after several years of being my first RP home) or HFC (my second home but it closed due to merging with this shiny board) :D I've been around on several others but lets keep it to these two ;)

In real life I torment kids from 16 years and older by teaching them Flash, Dreamweaver, 3D Max, Photoshop & After Affects. I'm currently trying to get my Bachelor Degree in Teaching Graphic Media which is exciting and terrifying at the same time. You must know I hate doing homework :lmao:

So that would end my introduction for today. I hope you will have a wonderful time here on MS and if you have any questions feel free to ask them because well we're here for that. :nod:

[Imzadi]

Wow, look at me, I am late.

Well, anyway, my name is Chrissie, I am 26 and I am from Germany. You may know me from Charmed: The Prophecy, The Hellfire Club or Supernatural: Seek The Truth. Normally I go by Daeva. I am a BA of Business Communication and atm I am doing my MA in that very field. I am highly interested in the online field, which is why I also know and practice my share of coding. I am currently working for a political foundation in Germany.

I love German cars, I love almost anything Fantasy, and I love RPing. I have a thing for Aussies, and English is the language that should have been my first. I hate small talk, and tinned pineapples. I love meeting new people and, whaddaya know, fresh pineapple.

I've been around boards for like four years now. I spent three running my own and I love what the owners and admins of this board put up here, so I am glad they have me. Treat them nicely and we'll get along :D

That's all about me. PM me any time.

TTFN.

[Laudanum]

Melleh (Meh-LEH)
adj.
1. South Australian, female, 26, with an obsessive compulsive penchant for music and all things Harry Potter & Twiight - and Eva Green.

:D Hi! I’m Mel, and I’ll be your cruise director for today. As stated, I am yet another Australian hailing from the best state in Australia: South Australia. When in Australia I play barista and supervisor for one of the best coffee chains around, serving the caffeine to deprived travellers at a secret location, I've since been promoted to Store Manager of one of our hospital outlets, I have been relocated back to the secret location as the Assistant Manager of the busiest store in SA which sounds like fun but really it means I just get to pretend that I'm in charge. Unlike these other fine, upstanding board members, you probably won’t know me from anywhere else, as I’m spechol and didn’t actually play. :-p (I have a short attention span and need to be kept busy else everything goes boom)

Apart from my obsession with all kinds of music (although I'm slightly, and I mean completely obsessed with Tegan & Sara), tea, everything Harry Potter, Twilight and Eternal Conflict there’s not much to say about who and or what I am.

But shall we play along? Ready? Okay. I like long walks on the beach, Piña Colada’s , rainy days … travelling, stimulating conversations about nothing that still keeps me entertained, British, Scottish, Welsh & Irish accents, flouting grammatical rules, staying up til 6 am and sleeping in til 1pm, etc.. Dislikes include, 4.30am opens, people who feel the need to talk to the person sitting next to them on long haul flights, coffee elitists who know nothing about coffee, flouting grammatical rules, Australian summers and the misuse of sarcasm and snark.

Hobbies include torturing my character's until they're an emo marshmallows RPing in Eternal conflict, insane MSN conversations that have absolutely no relevance to anything, hanging out in airports, watching the same movie 5,000 times until I know all the lines, listening to the same song over and over until I get tired of it, reading until my eyes weep because they're so tired and the world of fantasy.

And finally:

If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride and I’d be living in Cardiff (or Berlin, or The Netherlands, or anywhere that isn’t as more than 5,000 km’s from Europe), baking cookies and singing Tegan and Sara songs to ducks out in the non-existent snow – but alas, life doesn’t work that way. So I’m back to working in a veritable sweat shop while I bide my time for greener pastures. But I’m still going to sing Tegan and Sara songs to ducks and bake cookies.

EDIT: Well, not moving to Cardiff, but I am moving to London in October 2010 :-p

[Nefertiti]

Also late here, but really, is an introduction still necessary? :-p Anyhow, I'm Cornelia, and I'm 21 as of the time of this writing, even though I still feel weirded out everytime I think about it. I most certainly do not feel like a 21 year old. I'm from Indonesia, and I hope you know where that is, but if you don't, you won't be the first. I'm bilingual because I speak Indonesian too and English obviously, but I hope to learn more languages in the future.

I'm currently on my last year of university, studying Communication. I hope to work in an entirely different field when I graduate, though. My dream job choices are between a novelist, an editor for fiction books, a translator, or a screenwriter. The last one is my ultimate dream, simply because I love the entertainment world too much and I also love writing. The rest are my backup plans and I'm hoping I don't have to settle for anything less. I'm rather persistent that way, because I could be very dedicated when it comes to things I'm passionate about, and I'd like my job to get that advantage.

My hobbies include reading (I read anything and everything fictional), writing, and role-playing obviously, and I'm rather obsessed with movies and TV shows, considering I have way too many fandoms. Some of them are Alias, Desperate Housewives, Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl, The OC, Prison Break, Chuck, and I also have been in a vampire kick lately thanks to Twilight, although it's really such an overrated series. I have been roleplaying for years now, and my first message board RPG was WWD on Charmed: the Prophecy. That's me in a nutshell, I'm sure you'll find out more when you get to know me better. :)

[Vingt-Trois]

Hey ya'll - I'm Nick, 21, Vietnamese, and I'm from Texas. I'm a junior Design major studying areas in graphic design, industrial design, and architectural design. During the school year, my life consists of not having too much of one. :-p If I'm not in class, then I'm at work or in the lab or studio. But it's all worth it because I'm following my passion! After school, I want to move to either New York or San Francisco.

Obviously, I love art and design, and pretty things. :D I think that's also why I love the supernatural and science fiction because in those kinds of worlds, things can be fantastical. Secondly, I love to role-play, although that has to take a back seat on my list of priorities more often than not. In recent years, I don't get to watch a ton of TV, but Top Model and Project Runway are my favorites. Old favorites were Charmed, BtVS, Alias, The OC, etc. Food and sweets = hobbies. :-p Love to eat and love to try to cook. If I had a super power, it would be to teleport. Corny stuff makes me laugh the hardest, too. [What did one plate say to the other plate? Hey, lunch is on me!]

I think it's important to take risks and chances and not to have any regrets! I guess it's kind of cheesy, but I'm a pretty idealistic/romantic person. Friends and family are extremely important to me, and I'm thankful for that. Hope this gives ya'll a good idea of who I am. :)

[Walking Softly]

Hey! I'm Lea (lee-ah), 22 years old and Aussie :D. I hail from the same state as Melleh, South Australia. My ancestors come from all over the world so I feel like a truly international baby :-p.

Where might you know me from? I was a member of Charmed: the Prophecy and The Hellfire Club before they merged with the fantastic place that is Midnight Shadows. There are plenty of other boards that I've joined over the years but C:tP and MS have been my home. That's how it's gonna stay - I really do love it here. So, naturally I was stoked about being chosen to be a blood runner for MS.

I love to RP - I think I've been doing it since 2003..., make banners/avatars (nothing special, but it's fun when I get the mood), get absorbed in television shows/movies (LOST FTW), heart Scottish accents (and many others), am a chocoholic and I love to laugh. A life without laughter is not one worth living. You'll find that no matter how crappy life gets sometimes, okay - often, I can still crack a smile or giggle if something amuses me.

I'm a bit of an oxymoron: capable of getting away with dressing girly yet feel so at home looking/acting tomboyish, laugh even if I'm crying, detest someone for one thing but love them for an entirely different reason, can be completely random and still have the most serious/down to earth thoughts, and can be kinda hard to read but I'm not actually that complex. (This paragraph doesn't really paint that picture though, does it heh).

Airyn Velox is my favourite of my RP chars, Aikin (Airyn & Makin) are my favourite scenes to write, ADA is my choice of side in the WWD, I bleed Renegade blue (even if one of my three EC chars is a Scourgy boy).

The thing I want to do the most in life is travel. Got bitten by the travel bug back in 2003 and I've not really had chances to feed that want any further. If I could get paid to travel, that'd be my dream job. My other dream job is to act - what better way to walk a mile in someone else's shoes? But my goal is to get into law enforcement. That has been put on hold for a few years now - fatigue problems grip me. (Now you know why I'm around the board/twitter so much - so much time on my hands!)

That's about it. Me in a nutshell. Feel free to contact me (I don't bite.. often xD), I'm happy to try help out if I can. Stay positive, find reasons to smile, rage a little bit so you've got balance, and enjoy MS :nod:
