So. Before two months ago, I had never even logged into TCF. In fact, the only reason I had an account was due to getting one automatically, as I had an account on Terraria Online. And the only time I logged on THERE was for the NPC competition (The one that gave birth to the Stylist). So, in the grand scheme of things, I'm still pretty new.
The only reason I came to these forums was actually a pretty stupid one. It was a story. A funny little idea I had, which just would not go away. And so, bored and with little else to do with my time, I decided to make it a story properly, and publish it here, on TCF. And then things exploded.
I had written 2 chapters by the time I got my first reader, and that was in less than a day. 2 more, and another day, brought in another reader. This trend continued up to chapter 10. After a week of writing 2 posts per day, the story had a proper following, with absolutely no expectation from my part. To the point where I had expected the story to be abandoned in that time frame. But I had been wrong.
And here I am, almost two months later. I have started to get along with other members here, drawn together from the simple act of typing the first thing that pops into my head. My story is coming to a close, and another will start up in it's place. I have people I have never met, nor will meet, eager to read what I produce. Had anyone told me this would happen, I wouldn't have even laughed, that is how little I would have believed them.
So. That was then. And this is what will come next.
First off, note the PC prefix. I only play the PC version of Terraria, and I am unlikely to get the others. Mostly out of laziness. So, pardon me if I know little about Dragon Skulls or Ocram.
Second, I am actually pretty unsociable and lazy most of the time. This can be observed, by me playing Terraria for about 3 years now, and only talking to other players now. Heck, I will still play the game on my own, barring special circumstances. So, I will likely come across as rude at some point. And I am okay with that.
I am not here to make friends. I will take any that come my way, certainly. And I'm not saying to leave me alone. But I probably won't approach others. Should my writing die down, I may not even log on for weeks at a time, and then months if that persists. So, if I am not writing, pardon the lack of replies.
Another surprising thing, for how much I have written: I am not that interested in writing Terrarian lore. Sure, I am diving into it right now, and will write some over the next few months. But before 1.3 came out, I had actually not touched Terraria in months. Same thing happened before 1.2. I generally only get involved around major patches, then wander off for other things. So, yeah... I am a fan. But not a huge one, by any means.
And lastly, I can draw. I can write. I can program. I can act. I am very unlikely to take commissions for any of the above. While I can draw and act, I am not good at it. While I can program and write, I often only tinker with said things while I am bored. So, most of the time, I will be doing other things, or I'll be half asleep.
Sorry for the rant. I do those. Most of my story has been ranting, just somehow done in an interesting fashion. I literally wrote the first thing to pop into my head, minimal filtering (I may have held back on some of the less PG details. Blood, gore, etc.) But yeah, I have been in a weird mood. This thread will also serve for people to ask me questions, and I will happily answer them! (If nto always with the necessary answer)
TL,DR; Yo. I wrote things. I will write some more things. That is my purpose here. Come say hi!
