Greetings!
I've been looking for a big and welcoming community to help me get back into RPing. Google, blessed be its name, guided me right to the Inner Sanctum. I knew that was it the moment I saw the search result link -- the community for me to join -- as if providence itself sanctified my search request. To some, this might seem too unlikely and exaggerated, but I say... them observant sceptics are right -- I just had no better idea for the preface.
On a more serious note, I've been roleplaying for ages now. I scribbled my first image-ridden, colourful and glittery passages in the reign of Web 2.0, but had to go on prolonged hiatus to complete my studies, move to the big city and let the college swallow my spare time up. Now, I balance my studies, my career and my hobbies -- which I have in plenty, much to my delight and dismay.
I'm very passionate about all things gamey. I've had the luxury of working side by side with industry vets on PlayStation 4 and HTC Vive titles and having just enough funds to start a minute venture of my own, even though our debut title is still far from ready. I enjoy designing and rendering games out, board and video alike, especially if they involve more than one player -- it's always fascinating to observe as different people cook up different solutions to the puzzles you challenge them with, and how those solutions often vary to an unprecedented degree.
Another subject I'm smitten with is traditional art. So much so, I'm already in the process of brushing up and prepping my portfolio to try and earn a seat in the art college. I appreciate the challenges you have to face and creative solutions that spring up when you, say, must capture the look and "feel" of your subject in an elaborate portrait. So many techniques to put to the test and instruments to try! I blush to think of an avid gamer with a love for graphite and charcoal.
All that being said, I happen to weave words in a rather dull manner. While I wouldn't call myself the master of wordy excellence, I do fancy in-depth storytelling no matter the genre -- from the heights of High Fantasy to the banality of Romance with a Modern touch. When I have the time to roleplay, I toss out the clock and type away from dusk till dawn (But don't take my word for it!), meaning I'm very much able to conjure up and send away up to 3-4 paragraphs if I've got the stimuli, and the story we're shaping up still catches my eye. I'd say, I'm very open-minded and easy-going -- feel free to hit me up any time and we'll get cracking, ha.
Oh, I also happen to reside right in the middle of Finland -- stuck between warm Baltic waters and frigid Laplandish winds, and prefer not to disturb my biological clock. If we ever start an RP together, it'd be great to sort out the "schedule," if you will, so that my absence in the Western morning and presence in the Western evening does not upset you and sabotage whatever engaging story we come up with.
Yours truly,
~Fredrik
