(Haven't done one in awhile, might as well)

I am numb and only living because of my brothers.
I am pissed off at newspawn thieves.
I am sort of growing tired of this.
I am happy he woke up so we can work on our dreams.
I am making my wedding dress!
I am so happy to have found my old friend!
I am taking this guy home and just going to sail alone now.
I am worried.
I am wondering if he's truly happy or if he will leave me again like he did in the mountains.
I am working quietly. I need a purpose.
I am sailing again. Oh I missed the sea!
I am unsure on what to do now. Stay or go?
I am working towards this car then taking a trip.
I am working quietly.
I am wanting to get home. I miss the forest.
Oh look, another glorious morning… makes me SICK!

I am..

..Preparing for a rare opportunity. Failure is not an option.
..Contemplating becoming a master of medicine after making my fortune.
..Complicated. So damn complicated. Why? Damn it.
..Working my way up from nothing. Slowly.. very slowly.
..Ready to get out there and see what happens.

I am...

...soooooo happy that I am in this loooovely town!
...hoping for an option to get away from this boring nothingness.
...silently watching, observing and searching for the right place for me.
...constantly thinking of one statement. What happens when we die? Did I die before?
Don't remember where I was - I realized life was a game - The more seriously I took things - The harder the rules became

I am thinking to die or abandon everything I got used to.
I am happy with the life, calm enough for my age.
I am still keeping my silly hopes about his returning from the other realm.
I am travelling with my friends.
I am going back to home, this holiday was so nice and long.
I am nothing and everything.
I am just working as the life goes on in its dullness.
I am learning, working, struggling and now slightly confused.
I am feeling happier and this comes strange to me.
I am patiently waiting to make my dreams come true.
I am very much taken.
I am hoping to be free again soon.
I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity.

I am

Enjoying the pleasure of some interesting company, and quietly trying to deal with surprising new feelings.
Sort of settling in to this new position of influence, but haven't had much use for it yet. This place needs a wake up call.
Just back from a short trip home. Honestly disappointed in how it was. Wondering if it is maybe time to move on.
Reaching the end of one adventure, and about to start another. Caring for someone I don't think I fully understand.
Trying to brighten up more. They still don't know what I did. Wanting to tell them, but wanting to feel happy again.
Still sleeping. The persistence of those who keep feeding me is remarkable.
Watching my step around the animals. Things aren't so bad here, but I feel like I'm missing something.
Starting to find a rhythm, but the attitude of a passing trader is too much to bear.
In Soviet Russia, Cantr plays you!

I saw, and read this thread when I reactivated my account, and it's taken a while to get forum access. So, merely written it up for myself. Incoming!

This guy is,
... returning to civilisation. The wilds were not kind.
... in civilization. It's actually more boring, but more generous.
... So rich that I'm running out of room for it all.
... My new home is empty, and needs work, people and love. Er, life
... My new home has a visitor! Haven't been stabbed, shivved or sworn at, so we're off to a good start.

This guy is,
... working towards an expensive goal, and worrying about what a friend and another are up to, behind closed doors
... Need to shake up the situation, there's a few cracks.
... Ahh good, he can wake up. And then back to sleep, after a few gropes.
... Drat. My temporary replacement is asleep. That's .... the precise opposite of what I hired her for.
... Have returned from the trip, making new friends to find that .... everything's the same, but better.

This guy is,
... pleasantly surprised by a swift change in circumstance. Unsurprised and unpleased with the favour deposited on another.
... nearly stepped into a massive treasure.
... Hoping the treasure is still there.
... Well, made a friend, and possibly a future treasure.
... Shall be a mighty master of the open seas. Glorious and hairy!
... A bounteous gift, a glorious one. Now, how to repay that. I know, a hat!

This guy is,
... surprised I'm not in gaol.

This guy is,
... not surprised I'm not in gaol, planning what might be a boring life.
... Oh, why are you so worried? We're nice folks.

This guy is,
... looking through some notes, and accepting criticism.
... why am I building this museum? There has not been a visitor in years. Better to step into one of the displays.

This guy is,
... disbelieving some pretty sounding bullshit
... glad the task is nearly done, looking forward to leaving this stifling place.
... Very excited to have a future plan.
... Have friends, will travel.
... why have they stamped on everything the last year. Why.

This guy is,
... irked with my townmates.Their goals do not match mine, or anyone sane.

This guy is,
... shaking it up, and nearly getting put down
... keeping watch, because the guard isn't.
... Keep on chugging along, happily and messily. My friends are good, even if we disagree, we're working with each other well. The rest will come in time.
... aaand I just put my foot all the way in my mouth, through my brain and kicked myself in the face.
... the open seas the open seas the open seas the OH THIS IS BAD

This guy is,
... Nope. Bored. Well, at least I tried.
... Whyyyy me? Well, this will not be boring. Hard, satisfying and getting the most unexpected outcome title, but not boring.
... waiting. The sea has spoken, the rise begins. Keep the face calm, and ready the moment.

This guy is,
... eyeing the next prize.
... peeved. I hate being ignored.

This guy is,
... fuming. Far too much to do, and flogging doesn't produce the useful results. Fun though.
... just caught a particularly dumb fly. Plan on turning him into my spider.
... Nothing like being the authority figure without the authority.
... Fuck this fucking animal. Who needs to feed the pet of a dead man, even when he's still breathing.
... Bah, we say. Second time something bad has happened, and my people haven't moved an inch.
... New blood. Time to blood them, and see how they react. The old blood, might be drained afterwards.

This guy is,
... spinning wheels, getting the house in order.
... nearly completed something impressive. TIme to turn it into pay.
... Why the hell am I the authority figure?
... Holy crap. The horizons have just... wow. Need some serious time to process this.
... Horizons, still massive. Now I need to get these two idiots to shut up.
... Got a new friend. Last one didn't work out so well.
... Theyyyyy're back! This home could become a home again. Again.
... Finally, an idea. A mission, and something glorious to work towards. All shall hear my name.

This guy is,
... carving out a niche.
... Saved a life, made a friend. My tongue, silver it be.
... Time to see how much gratitude is worth.
... I do love a good bollocking. Fascinating to be watching it for once.
... Oh tender sleep, I did not miss you. Waking and the worlds wakes with you.

This guy is,
... wondering what the first step in a coup is, and what to read next.
... hoping that this finishes soon, someone else has spied the opportunity.
... Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck ah well.
... Oh fuck fuck fuck fuck! Last fuck fuck fuck was just an annoyance, this one, is life threatening.
... Willing to share the load, not willing to put up with this for much longer. You have no idea of what I am capable of
... The mysterious case of the doubletheft. Two towns, no locks in one, no guards. Just need to prepare and plan a bit more.
... This place seems even less familiar then the last. And yet, it's home
... Homeward bound, at least I think. A glorious choice, and a future that's still faint.


It's quite fun, seeing how the characters have evolved, changed, their circumstance have too. And remembering, why were they like this? Oh yes, this happened,

I am... preparing for that highly-exciting-but-totally-nerve-wracking next stage in the Cantrian equivalent of online dating :lol:

I am... finally back home after taking my stripey donkey sailing.

I am... feeling kind of sleepy lately, struggling to wake up properly.

I am... back from our trip. It was fun, we must do it again. But lot's of work to do first!

I am... helping out the neighbours.

I am... happy to see he's still around! I was worried the same had happened to him as to so many others...

I am... glad they're not all sleepy. Might need to take a short trip very soon though.

I am... watching the animals have newspawns for dinner :twisted:

I am...

... Feeling as if I've just been stretched too far. Unsure of how much more I can take.
... A bundle of nerves, not sure I've ever been so scared or excited, in my entire life. I wish they were here, but then again, they're real busy.
... Blissfully happy, and I never want to leave this room. Alas, we must; Having responsibilities is shit.

I've not done one of these for a while...

I am...
...having a hard time finding motivation to work in the wilderness. Things are more interesting at home.
...taking care of a new pet. She's precious. Poor thing doesn't wake anymore though.
...trying to sort through some new feelings. I love her.. but can I tell her? And will it be a betrayal to my dead love?
...enjoying meeting folks on a new island. Hopefully my shady reputation won't cause problems for me here.
...making a truck for a good friend.
...enjoying the quiet life with a fellow lost soul.
...exploring the island to take a break from the numbing quiet of town.
...wishing my love would wake up. She's been asleep many years now. Will she die in her sleep like all my prior loves?
...feeling the numbing embrace of quiet boredom. Maybe we should go on another trip.
...excited to be in love again, and excited to see the town begin to become alive again.
...feeling cold... this blizzard... ugh! I want to snuggle with my lovers.
...ready to go visit home for a bit after this road upgrade. I want to see how my friends are doing.
...relieved that things have quieted down.
...trying to turn this old abandoned town into a hermitage. This place has many bounties!
...finding that this area is kind of creepy. So little life, and so quiet. I must make some noise!

I am

... sailing to find forgiveness, even if it kills me.
... managing the town again after returning from vacation.
... still shocked after being betrayed.
... helping a stranger, even if I got nothing out of it.
... perpetually grumpy.
... recovering.
... wondering why I still continue living after she's gone. ("Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.")
... frustrated and feeling unsafe in our home.
... exploring with my boyfriend.
... surprisingly happy.
... processing resources.
... building stuff in my shop.
... learning an occupation.
... on the way home from mapping.
... finally back to the mapped region after being lost.

As a player I rarely read when other people post these things but I still hope people read mine.

My first account, everyone had a name at spawn. Second account, most people had a name at spawn. For attempt number three, almost nobody will have a name at spawn. Instead, here's what my character list looked like the first few days. I tend to go either 'nameless' to start, with a list of characteristics to fit, or go with a characteristic as a name.

I am...
...nameless. (loyalty, protector, stubborn)
...nameless. (loyalty, protector, nurturing)
...rage. (clumsy, cowardly)
...nameless. (quiet, goal-oriented)
...nameless. (meek, helpful)
...forgetful. (explorer, throwaway)
...pride. (explorer, city-builder)

Obviously subject to change as the characters develop further.

I am... getting closer, so much closer - nerves are starting to set in now!

I am... keeping the animals safe from a nasty winter.

I am... quietly working away, listening to the radio.

I am... busy, busy, busy!

I am... tying up old projects, but there's always so many more things to get done!

I am... back at base, back to the rigging.

I am... trying to keep on top of the animals needs.

I am... not surprised.
