hello hello

Hey folks, I'm new. My name's Cameron, but since I take it you already have one of those in-game (it was my name first, kid, back off!), feel free to call me any nickname or variation thereof. I apologise in advance for any confusion, lmao. Anyway, I'm 24 and a graduate/professional student. I'm also falling off the wagon after 4-or-so years clean from RP, thanks to a little prodding by JJ. God help me.

I picked up 1 character. This little turdblossom is Ulysses Quayle, Ebonhide junior and baby bro to Cricket. Basically, his shtick is that he was everyone's precious baby angel until he went to boarding school and hit puberty and stuff, and then people stopped finding him cute and his whole world fell apart. Now he's like "WHO AM I" and because he's a teenager, this results in 50% melancholic navel-gazing and 50% Acting Outâ„¢. Expect trouble in everything but class, because he's terribly afraid that if he isn't effortlessly succeeding at school, it means he's lost his last identity token ("smart").

So, he's kind of a neurotic brat. Thankfully, he's also pretty charming, loyal to friends and fam, good with creatures (ask him about his blue tongued skink) 'n' kids, and somewhere deep down, a generally good guy. Ulysses is a chaser on the Quidditch team and very into it.

So yeah, that's Ulysses in a nutshell, I guess. Any plots or suggestions would be more than welcomed. I'm excited to play with you guys.

ETA: Oh, contact info! Feel free to email me at captainkickflips@gmail.com or hit me up on my CDJ, [insanejournal.com profile] angoranimi. Sadly, I'm probably in a different time zone than most of y'all (GMT) but I'll do my best to be awake at odd hours, lol.

HELLO! I'M KAS! WELCOME! ISN'T GRAD SCHOOL FUN! (only sometimes.) I have three~

Quinn Cunningham (this journal) is my least relevant. Senior Azurcrest, Prefect, splits her time between working too much (distracting her in the library is not recommended), trying to break people's noses in sports, and partying more than she should. She's fairly sarcastic but isn't mean most of the time and Ulysses has probably met her no-nonsense Prefect side more than once.

Kurt Wolfhart ([insanejournal.com profile] lovekurts) is a Ribbonfin junior! He's in a bunch of classes and Equestrian with Ulysses, and I think it's kind of been established in the past that his snooty New England family knows the snooty Tennessean Quayles from society bullshit. He's a sweet guy with a heart made of marshmallow who's crazy for creatures. He spends, like, a lot of his time at the stables. Despite the fact that he's a talented actor (why he's at Gooseberry) he's normally pretty timid in social situations and has a stutter that presents he's with his closest friends, on stage, or with animals.

Casey Patterson ([insanejournal.com profile] sunsoutgunsout) is a Coppertale junior! Casey likes to be in control and enjoys pushing people's buttons. He has a history of bullying that's kind of subsided. He runs a D&D campaign. He's a cheerleader. He's a dancer. He wants to be shirtless 24/7. He's not very smart. The only reason he hasn't flunked out or been expelled is because Ulysses' sister is a miracle worker who's been tutoring him and generally Teaching Him What's What for almost two years.
