Hello there!!!! I'm one of those poster who is a little wet behind the ears. I am a current player of the card game yu-gi-oh. However I have put down the game because of frustration with meta etc. I have began to play DnD in the 3.5 edition and absolutely love it. I hope I can enjoy the forum along with you!!!!

Hello everyone. Great to be here! I've been looking for a community that can contain me. A little about myself.

I am a shooting star, a pretty boy, a wrathful god, a dignified beggar, a corporate suit and a lone wolf. I've had a number of lives. The first was a turbulent pocket of hot air that would come from the mouths of me and my friends/family. Friends and family I found myself alienating with my inarticulateness and juvenile boasts. Judgement was passed down before I was given time to reflect and I was exiled with nothing in my name but skinny Abercrombie & Fitch jeans, a number of Three 6 Mafia CDs and a cocktail named after me in the bar in the hotel lobby. After that I went from park bench to park bench sitting looking contemplative and serious for the benefit of the joggers and the kite flyers who would pass by me.

Desperate and alone I flung myself from the tallest bridge in the city and awoke some time later on a foreign shore. I discovered a new town nearby on the coast, a town whose roads seemed to spiral outwards from the monolithic maritime museum in the middle. The people here don't speak the same language I do and even if they did they're too often interrupted by the air raid sirens or the horns from the incoming ships. I really hate it here. The air is salty and the days go on too long. But I don't have the money to leave and I can't go back to the city. After I left they built a wall to keep me from coming back in.

But hey! At least you guys will cheer me up! Won't that be fun?

Hello everybody!

I'm new here, but I've read every Order of the Stick comic, and I'm really looking forward to participating in a great community.

So, who am I, you may ask?

I am a seeker of tales,

A man of the mountains,

The storyteller of the pencil,

And the traveler.

Drakeburn, are your service. *bows*

Greetings to all,

Tis I, DemonPun.

I am new to this forum, but I have read all of the Order of the Stick Comics, and have been following them for quite a while. I just finally decided to join in on the forum aspect. I tend to not be to wordy, so you might not see a lot of posts from me, but I do take time to check up every now and then. :-)

I was in kind of the same boat. Then one hung-over morning I found myself stumbling through the wrong door looking for the bathroom to get cleaned up, and found some interesting and cool people. They were even polite enough not to mention I hadn't showered that day. Their fashion sense is better too

I believe this is a little record, in the lurkers' field. I only wandered around for a couple of years before joining.

Welcome aboard.
