The I AM thread. (The 4-day rule applies!)

[Darkle-ish]

I'm an aimless traveler and sometimes petty theif for survival.

I am wanted in the Lad empire, and am doing my best to escape it.

I am a Silver Knight trying to keep a sleepy town busy, and waiting for the return of a man who holds a higher rank who might be able to do a better job.

I'm a patient man who has escaped capture from those he has stolen from more than once.

I'm a traveler wondering where to settle down.

I am woman worried about the guy she likes, and trying to build machines to produce higher leveled technologies.

I'm a woman who has been inside a building working diligently on projects to help her town for most of her life.

I am a woman who has discovered that there are two men she wants to be wtih and doesn't know what to do.

I am a girl who has a found a place where she can live without worrying about trouble with food.

I am a man who says little, and helps others with their projects, asking nothing in return.

[Reindeer^]

I am a walking traveller.
I am an idiot doing nothing.
I am a tailor with no required materials.
I am a builder.
I am collecting gold for trade.

So I am nothing special yet. But I will be!

[Nakranoth]

Alright, it's been a while... so it's "Update time..."

Growing bored with the same old things.

Feeling oddly spunky. Time to get this tired town rolling.

Starting to feel distant from the woman I fell in love with.

Biding my time until... either she or death finds me... though I'm not sure I care which anymore.

Exhaused by all the drama.

Looking forwar to the new trip, but a bit anxious about leaving her for so long.

Moving home once again.

Founded a new home... maybe this one won't be spoiled in blood.

In yet another very large contract.

Finally free from contracts for a time and quite a bit wealthier... wonder what'll present itself now?

Seeking guidance from any who might be able to help.

Finally beginning to be on even terms with the ones that torment me.

Away from home, and feeling a bit homesick.

Home again, and currently content.

Learning where needs what for optimal buying and selling points.

Making friends where I can, so no one will believe tales that I anything other then what I appear to be.

Bored and overburdened. There's only so much jerky you can hold.

Taking refuge from the sneezes... how long could one epidemic last?

Forever a gnome... the silly kind.

Making new toys! Wheeeeeeeeee!

Working to make something beautiful.

Bored and feeling useless.

Back from the brink of insanity and death. The demon's shall not have my flesh.

Beginning to finally realize my dreams of becomming a poet.

Supprised to still be alive... now where has my friend gone?

Confused how people can be so rude to my traveling companion. I've introduced him twice, and he's even piped up a few times, but not a single person greets him.

(new)Mute and illiterate.

Still mute, but now literate.

(new)Oh! Hello there, my name's... What's that? Oh, right, sorry, I nearly forgot. But anyway, if I can't find some food just at the end of this road I'm done for... it's longer then I'd wagered.

[Pie]

I'm a middle aged man, verry well off, chaseing down a nespawn theif. I'll be sure to keep my doors locked from now on, and all of my expencive material locked up also.

I am also a middle aged man, surrounded by the only survivors of the kingdom of sanctuary. Now we have created a republic, and we are makeing steel wheapons, and I'm verry surprised at how fast we are advanceing, but we have a small portion of the population that we used to have before when we were a simple comunity.

I am a travelor, surprised that I was able to steal a raker that was recently plunderd by pirates, and I hope that I'm able to build a lock soon.

[15454]

My turn to update.

I am a leader who has supplied a cause that will accomplish her dream of uniting the four forests.

I am a lonely king living in the polish lands, killing polish and anyone alike who would be a profit toward him.

I am a plain, kind old man who enjoys to hunt, and enjoys to helm others. All he would really like now is his great friend to wake up. (HE BETTER WAKE YOU MUST, YOU HAVE A DESTINY)

I am a leader who has just celebrated a great day with a festival with her town and nieghbors. She does not know what to do now as the gift the town had given itself now stands tall and shines bright.

.

.

I am a loyal, long-time, hard worker for a clothier who's lover has fallen ill and will not wake.

I am doing what I used to do... It is like starting over in a different place.

.

I am working hard, gaining resources faster than, I believe, the main head can keep up with. Profiting very rapidly with all but two workers and a drill.

.

I stole something, and now they have locked me in a house. I wonder if they know I am making a shield of iron in here and soon to cook some meat.

.

[DELGRAD]

I am a coward and afraid.

I do nothing but cook and do not know why.

I am alone and do not know how to do what I have to after she left. I feel like gutting a few people that come now and again.
I need to go get "this", "this", alot of "that" and some more of "that".

I am...

I feed all.

(I feel the need to serve without having to.
I have bloodied my blade.
I only work to provide a "resource" and so I can eat.)

I travell heavy with food looking for betterment.

I am for myself, yet I help a town survive.





I the player have no clue. My characters do what they what. I am becoming them.

Takes a long time for a nonimaginative person like me to seperate myself from the character. It is hard, but I think I am there.

Anyone say alter ego. That is how you play.
Create a character and make them as you wish you could be.
Good, bad, no rules.

I am.

[frenchfisher]

I am...

no one in particular. Walking to nowhere. You don't know me.

People have been suspicious of me, but I don't really care. I'm looking to stir up trouble somewhere down the line.

being a general nuisance, albeit a rather cheerful one.

Yayayayayayay! I'm on a ship! Going somewhere! We're gonna make something that's gonna be really fun! I'm so excited! So excited!

sorta being a rebel without a cause, or at least I would be if my town were more active

I let him die of starvation.

(new) Some day, I will find the library, and thus find the answer to all of my questions.

(new) I am a rather confused newspawn. What's a name?

[Kev Milsom]

We had so many plans but now my friend has died and I’m alone again. All I have now is my beloved boat and a wide array of resources. My only current worry in life is whether to build a cargo hold or a cabin. It’s time to explore the island.

My leader once saved me from a painful, slow death and gave me so much hope for the future.
When she passed away I had to leave. Now I live far away and I’m starting again, with a new, smaller community…although I am a little confused as to who I am actually working for.

Having the absolute time of my life.
Out at sea and in the very best of company.
Life doesn’t get any better.

Things always were rather quiet.
Since my only friend went away life has now ground to a halt. No-one ever speaks. No work is ever done. The town is dead. I might as well be too. This is no life for anyone. But where can I go?

I could easily have pulled the crossbow trigger and lived the life of a thief and murderer.
It’s fortunate indeed that he found exactly the right words to calm the anger within me. Now, far away, I have found the stability and responsibility I need to keep my mind focused on more positive things. The anger is quieter now; the voice has gone. I am ready for a companion.

I run the town, but there are not enough of us to make it work as it should.
And yet I am happy. Life is fun. Finally, I have shoes.
Now I can dance more often.

Years of endless wandering and near starvation, since they let me down.
But now things are turning around and travel has brought me slowly back into contact with society. A long way now from my old home, and looking for a new one, if I can find the necessary trust to live among them.

I have a job and I am grateful for it, but I am not particularly talented.
I think I may be the worst worker he has, but I will get better and better, to repay the time and effort that my leader has shown me.

[N-Aldwitch]

I am.. (secret)

That was Felin Ginger. Dead.. obviously. (unless you believe the small conspiracy that some corrupt people just brought back the body of some random woman and Ginger's still on the loose)

I am a colonist, battling off natives who attacked my friends.

Dead.

I am a liar, pretending to have been kept against my will, and as a result earning a vehicle and many materials to start a business.

Became an important guard, killed the guy who apparently kept me against my will, now being punished by death for my crime. (did a lot more than that of course.

I am alone with just one other older lady. She came from far away. Together we're trying to build up a town bordering a sea in an uncolonised land.

Locked her up, gave her some food and went hunting for some metal materials. Have been dead asleep for quite some time. Wondering if she's alive.

I escaped a crazed tribe leader and town leader who together massacred many people, including almost killing one for being homosexual. Now relaxing peacefully and serving out my final days on a boat drifting no-where.. it was my wish to die of hunger slowly sailing into the sun than die in the cold prisons, now I'm living that wish.

Still alive! His only crewmate, dead for 5+ years now, is a God to him. If the crewmate had of lived, there would not have been enough food.
Still haven't found land, and have exactly 20 days of food left. Quite depressing.

I am friends with a man who was once part of a nice group called the TBR. Just went out searching for resources on this massive island! and found plenty. Can't wait to return it all to boss!

Dead.

I am plotting to kill a colonist who left me here for nothing. Bastard.

Am now an important representative in a big city on a small island, trading coins. *hint hint*

I am now in jail for a foiled plan.. the jail sentence is crazy! And I am hungry..

forgot... hehe...

I just got a thief killed, returned to town where my efforts were forgotten. They didn't even know my name.

Died, to my knowledge.

I am starting a business. Found some stone on the ground to do it. Hope no one minds!

Am now merging business with the town.

I am becoming rich fast. I'm quite young, only a couple of years past my spawn date, and already own a couple of claymores and iron shields.

Those were stolen. Now starting an empire, it is quickly becoming quite powerful, with the (strangely enough) support of the town leaders.

I followed some guy because I felt like it. Turned out he was injured so I decided to call him a thief. It got better- he came out saying he was a thief and was sorry. Wow! What luck. I should do this more often!

Dead... I think.

I am lost in this massive world! There are few strands of people here and there.. but that's it!

Wow, most fun I've had in a while. I am with a small group of 4, all spawned nearby... now we're setting up a pretty big community in the mountains! We already have a building established and one more on the way, it's looking like a town more and more!

I am hiding inside, away from the dangerous animals, too scared to do anything in case they bash the door down..!

Died.

[haggismcbean]

I am a trader who got rich in iron the hard way. I'm now trying to distribute my wealth by trading iron for wood by everyone is ignoring my generous offer.

I left my home after a petty argument with the town leader. Since then i've travelled across half the island and am working towards getting myself a sloop. I'm beginning to question what purpose there is to my life.

I am one of three leaders in a big city on a small island. I am ambitious and looking to wake up the sleepy city and restore it to its former glory, but am hampered by lazy workers and my own young age and questionable reputation.

I am working towards getting some iron in a very large but very sleepy city. People here don't speak out loud and i'm afraid to in case it's rude or something.

I am living in a small forest just two towns away from where i stole my iron shield and weapon. I've already commandeered a building here and am working on an extension inside. Unfortuanately, i need to borrow a screwdriver (or come into 70 grams of iron) before i can fit the building with a lock.

I am an annoyance. As soon as i spawned i waited a few days to see if anyone would welcome me and then attacked everyone in the small village with a bone club. I was beaten half to death and banished, but my sole aim in life is to get revenge on the town. I just hope i can remember the way back there.

I am sailing around trading to help out two towns that are in close proximity to each other by sea but at least 10 days walking distance. Unfortunately it looks like someone beat me to it on my last trade run and my profit margins have been beaten down.

I am a shy girl in a small town. I'm looking to start trading by sea, but am beginning to get hesitant about leaving my town and sailing into the big bad world all by myself.

I am starting up a new community in a once great but now inexplicably abandoned city. There are expensive resources and locked buildings everywhere but our leader is very protective of them and even though we've been offered free bikes and buildings to stay i know my place enough not to push my luck.

I am working inside in order to gain some clothes. Then, i don't know what. I haven't made any lasting friendships yet and i feel alone.

I am mentally unstable. I haven't worked a day in my life yet the kind group of mercenaries that live alongside me feed me despite the fact all i do is question their way of life or stay silent all day every day.

I spawned on the quietest town on the small island. I want to move away with ambitions of one day becoming ruler of the whole island, but have recently heard that the infrastructure of the island is improving and there is someone else who is taking power everywhere.

I am a failed female iron thief. Just before i completed an iron smelting project in an abandoned building the project's initiator came back into the room and took everything i'd worked for for a year.

I am a survivor in the middle of nowhere. I have one friend, but he doesn't talk very much and isn't very interesting.

[psymann]

I am...

• [Was: Determined to go home as promised some years ago, but afraid about what I might find there. Chopping wood in a friendly environment until I feel it is safe and desirable to return.]
  Returned home, built a home, now trying to furnish it and help the town.
  
• [Was: Trying to start a small business, but still working for others to afford to set it up. Gradually feeling less frightened and more confident as I get used to people and the local community, but worried about accepting help when I have nothing to offer in return.]
  Business up and running, mainly due to generous donation from a friendly old man who I am indebted to. Offered to pay for people to bring me raw materials and have, thank goodness, found a customer in time for me to be able to pay them. If they turn up. Things are still hard but getting better!
  
• [Was: Having a laugh and being part of the local organisation. Happy to do what's asked, but secretly hoping for something exciting to happen.]
  Got bored of waiting for something to happen, so went exploring. Optimistically expecting things are a bit more exciting on my return.
  
• [Was: Sitting around doing very little, my brain capacity not up to much other than doing what I'm told, and no-one's ever told me to do anything yet. Could turn out as a great law-enforcer or a dangerous criminal depending on who gets to me first...]
  No change. Now sort of second-in-charge in my area because there are so few people and I've been here second longest, despite not having much of a clue what to do. Still waiting for someone to brainwash me into doing something exciting, good or evil.
  
• [Was: Enjoying surprising fortune, the world opening up in front of me. Some work to do yet before my dreams are realised, but recent events have conspired to assist me.]
  Working hard to make the most of what I've got.
  
• [Was: Confused by people who don't act or speak the way they should, so am walking somewhere else.]
  Walked away, making a map of some deserted places. OOC: computer crashed so I lost the map, grr! Now chosen a good place to call home, so wandering around nearby area trying to collect useful resources and make a new map. Haven't met a single person in years, but I like it that way (because people are confusing and OOC because I'm hard to RP correctly esp with the lag!)
  
• New: I just help people. I have no ambition, so as long as people treat me nicely, I will work for them without expecting payment other than food.
  
• New: I am trying to trade goods for a profit.
  
• New: I am becoming religious.
  
• New: I felt constrained so left the town with a stranger. I then tried miserably to start a witch hunt, which not only failed, as I expected, but barely even raised an eyebrow, which was a shame. The stress of it all killed me. OOC: and I had another character too close for comfort and just couldn't be bothered to stay alive! Will be dead in three days or so.

As a player, I am...

Waiting for the lag improvements, but content enough. Given up trying to make suggestions as they seem to get ignored, but realising that that's probably ok - helps me spend less time on the game after all.

[BadMonkey]

Ooh, quarterly character update:

I am looking for my place, but listening to nothing but direct orders.

I am finally doing what I started out to do 3 years ago. Is it worth it?

I have gradually fallen away from the world I worked so hard to integrate myself with.

I am sitting alone for years at a time, but new visitors bring out the best in me.

I am scared that the woman I gradually fell for may never waken.

I have reaped the rewards of generous pay and am unsure what to do with myself. And the town is just too busy...

I am a cog in the town. Hopefully unnoticed.

I am away from my old life, and shall face trouble if it ever catches up with me on such a small island...

I have worked and become my employers most trusted companion. But do I really care anymore?

I sleep, for no real reason at all.

I am in love, and it is pushing me to try and change the world.

I am finally free. But is it really worth it?

I am feeling as if the adventure is back. Everything is just...Right.

I really do not understand the workings of the world around me, but whilst I am fed they do not interest me.

I am alone with a foreign man. The years spent without even this company have driven me to a simplicity, and communication is difficult.

[Darkle-ish]

Update time...

I'm an aimless traveler and sometimes petty theif for survival.

Still traveling, with no real goals in life. Haven't resorted to stealing in a while.

I am wanted in the Lad empire, and am doing my best to escape it.

I am trying my hand at trading. Still wary of Lad.

I am a Silver Knight trying to keep a sleepy town busy, and waiting for the return of a man who holds a higher rank who might be able to do a better job.

The Baron is back, but he sleeps heavily. When will he wake up? Will he wake up? My wife brings me much joy, but recent deaths and sleepiness, as well as problems with another person sadden me.

I'm a patient man who has escaped capture from those he has stolen from more than once.

I am in a place I think I might live in. We'll see...

I'm a traveler wondering where to settle down.

Still traveling, but taking a break to earn some things.

I am woman worried about the guy she likes, and trying to build machines to produce higher leveled technologies.

Battle axe is done, and he and I are sailing to a new island. He's quiet though..

I'm a woman who has been inside a building working diligently on projects to help her town for most of her life.

Back home from a trip with a friend. Returning to work.

I am a woman who has discovered that there are two men she wants to be wtih and doesn't know what to do.

I've realized who I want to be with, but am nervous to tell him.

I am a girl who has a found a place where she can live without worrying about trouble with food.

Not only have I found food, but also love, and the two of us are going to build a house. She makes me so happy.

I am a man who says little, and helps others with their projects, asking nothing in return.

I am now working with someone else in a different city. Boats are boring..


-NEW-
I've finally been told my name. I'm working with some people now.

-NEW-
This town is quiet. Hopefully something will come around and make things interesting.

-NEW-
Bored. Helping on a project. Wonder what I'll do next..

-NEW-
Going back to my spawnplace with the people I left with. Must follow the instructions I was given while he sleeps.

-NEW-
I've been told to go to a town where there is a building I can hide in from the hordes of animals. Everyone was dead. They starved, though there was plenty of food. Oh well. More for me.

Damn your whispers. A couple years is a lot to take with that kind of thing.

Luckily my character isn't the kind to be irritated by anything. Ever.
