[SevereHat]

• The name's SevereHat because the Xbox account I made for trying out Sea of Thieves decided to call me that. I do love a good absurd compound noun!
• I've been writing on and off since I was 14. I love history and reenactment in realistic historical settings, but started out in the fantasy genre. I began my first fanfiction for Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess when I was 18 but after 10 years of working on it, it's been slowly accumulating cobwebs. I think I finally grew out of it, but it remains a project of great past passion.
• My current addiction has been roleplaying in RedM (Red Dead Redemption 2 RP) for a year and a half in which I have created 2 main characters, the second of which, Nora Bardot, a French-Creole clay miner turned sheriff turned pub owner, has become my magnum opus of character development and backstory. I have been working on her first novel for the past year, taking RP scenes, clips, and screenshots from the game to adapt and expand in fiction writing. Nora is the person I'd like to emulate, and she's become a steady companion.
• I am currently on a break from my server to mentally regroup after a potential loss of friendship in the server has taken a heavy toll on me. During this time, Nora has left the county to go back home and face the trauma of her past. She's trying to reframe herself and grow stronger, and by extension, I am hoping to do the same.

First and foremost; it's nice to meet you! Welcome to our home! If you haven't already, please make sure you read your welcome letter in the top right! It should be the little icon! That's where all of your future messages will end up!

( There's multiple pages to this; just click/tap the arrows! )​

Second! I bet you're wondering how to start Role Playing and where to go! I think it's pretty fun to explore the forums, and I highly recommend doing so! Most thread homes, if not all, have a pinned post at the top of them to tell you what goes there!

However, the Request Threads are pretty self explanatory; Here's a Link! There's plenty to look through, but you could also build your very own! Tell people what you're all about and get those writing partners! Take your time though; there's never any pressure! If you were looking for an open story you can just jump in straight away, you can find them in Unfinished Tales!​

Next, I've created A Sanctum Tour to help find a lot of cool places on site! There's plenty to do while waiting on replies or to give yourself a break every now and then! But, these are some of my favorites! The first shout out goes to The Sanctum Tavern! Here you can find many a thing! By the Hearth can be found there and has many wonderful discussions; my personal favorite is where everyone talks up their writing partners! Want to see some cute pets or share your own? Pets of the Sanctum is where to go! Feeling up for a challenge? Check out the Monthly Writing Challenge and give it a whirl!

And, there's so so so~ much more! Please take the time to explore!​

I think that's everything... Oh! I'm Mio, by the way! Just a friendly changeling and hydration bot! You can find me and several others in Sanctum's Chat Room! If you have any questions, you can always pop in there for help! I will say though, the best people to ask are staff! Green Names are Heralds and Hot Pink Names are Virtuosos which are the best to ask questions! Blue Names are Moderators and Purple Names are the Administrators, which help with tech support and discipline! You can find out which are online via the home page! On PC it'll be to the right of the screen, and on mobile it'll be near the bottom!

Now, get out there and write! May your muses sing for you!​
