*side-to-side head bounce, blond-style* Like, Hi? My name is Stephanie? But, most people call me Steph?
I'm, like, 23? Years old? Brunette with, like, dark green eyes? I live in, like, Virginia? The east coast of the United States?
*rolls eyes* GAWD! I hate it when people talk that way!
My hobbies include (but are not limited to): reading, writing fiction ( I drop words sometimes, but manage to catch the errors before the final version), my four cats (Scooter, Rascal, Abu, and Lilly), building computers from scratch, playing PS2 games (I'm a Splinter Cell NUT), and playing in the Itropa Universe (galaxy, multi-verse, whatever).
My favorite sci-fi shows include: Space: 1999, Space: Above and Beyond, Andromeda, and ALL of the Star Trek series'.
I spent four years in the USMC working on computers (yes, I was sent to Iraq; no, I didn't kill anyone; no, I didn't get ambushed; yes, I came away without a scratch..unlike some of my friends.)
I am currently employed as the security manager for a resort, but will soon enter a one-week training course to prepare for shipboard security on merchant vessels.
Some of the characters I play are: Twinkletoes Moonbeam (a barbarian Fairy), Meagleflip Moonbeam (her evil sister), Fire Ember Moonbeam (their First Responder brother) & Shalindra Dragonspring (a monk with issues).
As KingMortimer (I adopted that nick because several people tried to cyber and hounded me from server to server, fortunately only one on this server), I have BFCD-285 (a lost robot trying to find "command echelon"), and BRU-1 (a reconnaissance robot who falls down a lot and generally acts like a weirdo).
Hey, hazmatt SAID this board was for introductions...*mumbles to self*Geez, do I have to do EVERYTHING around here? ;D

YOU'RE 285? I had no idea. I love that robot. I'm Roger Fachini II, (duhhh...*points down to the sig*), 37, raised in Michigan but smart enough to have moved to California (don't miss the snow at ALL). I enjoy drumming, karate (Tang Soo Do 4th Dan), kendo (3rd Dan), Tai Chi, almost all kinds of music (Led Zeppelin is a favorite), and Neverwinter Nights (really). I've played and DMed on several of the most popular NWN servers over the last three years. I don't really consider myself a geek, but I liked all of the Star Trek series and things like the Herules and Xena series. Oh and I also have my 1st Edition D&D books signed by Gary Gygax, even though the covers fell off from using them so often. No geeks here, move along, nothing to see folks... Michael Moorc o c k (Elric) [WTF? this board won't let you write c o c k] and Frank Herbert (Dune) are two of my favorite authors. I once wrote a simple d6-based RPG of Dune, and thought it would make a great NWN setting. I also made a fun modern d20 NWN PW. Still not a geek. Well, maybe just a little. Isaac Asimov is also one of my favorite authors. M.S. Biochemistry from UCLA, I work in Protein Science doing molecular biology for the world's largest biotechnology company. edit: I neglected to mention one of my favorite hobbies: Guinness!!

My name is Matt, and I am a snorfaholic. I currently live in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, with my lovely wife KJ and our two cats. When I'm not working in the NWN toolset, I enjoy video games (RPGs, Action, Adventure, Fighting), reading (science-fiction and fantasy, of course), drawing, writing, watching bad movies, and generally messing around on the computer. I'm a Star Wars nut, and I'm one of those Trekkies who think that "Trekkers" need to get a life. Why Itropa?Itropa is my first mod for NeverWinter Nights, and in some places it really shows. I enjoy doing creative-but-odd projects on the computer, and I love any game that allows you to design your own levels/worlds. I made three mods for Morrowind, and I've made about a dozen "computer paper dolls" for a program called "Kiss" (Kisekae Set System). Why NeverWinter Nights?In 1993, I discovered the joys of online gaming while in college, with a telnet game called JediMUD. I found it highly addictive, and probably owe my poor GPA to that game. Since then I've been searching for what I consider to be the perfect online game - one that includes everything I liked about MUDs, but with good graphics and controls. I probably would have been sucked into Evercrack or Galaxies, if I weren't so cheap. I just can't justify paying a monthly fee. For a while I hopped around to any free online world I could find (like Furcadia), until I finally bought NeverWinter Nights. And it's perfect for me. I have certain, er, gender issues (all creative people are crazy, didn't you know?), and being able to immerse myself in a fantasy world, where I can pretend to be someone else, is a great emotional outlet for me.

Yes.. we creative artsy types are a little off their rockers.. so my turn.. The Not So Blonde Ditzy Blonde I'm 26. I was born in Panorama City, California (in the Valley.. like.. gag me!!). My father was in the Army, so this meant moving a lot. When I was 5, we moved to Columbus, Ohio. My first winter was totally exciting as I'd never seen snow before. Well, we quickly got tired of it, and when I was 7 we moved back to Cali, this time to San Diego (yes way!). We moved once to La Verne which is just next door to SD. (Our apartment owner - 3rd one in the 2 years we lived there - decided to go Adults only and kicked out anyone with children under 16.) All was good until I was 14, then we moved to Colorado. For a year we lived on THE Air Force Acadamy in Colorado Springs. Then they had a change of base commanders who decided that anyone not working for the Air Force couldn't live there, so we moved off base. I had already completed my Freshman year, thankfully. We stayed in Colorado for a little over 2 years. Just shy of three. If you did the math, you'd know that I was ALMOST done with High School. But the Army wouldn't wait, and my mother would not let me stay behind (I was 18, so legally I could have stayed there, but I didn't realize that at the time). So we were off to Texas. My parents live in Anderson/Navasota, Texas. A 45 minute drive from College Station. That's right. The Aggies. Two years ago I moved to Plano (45 minutes North of Dallas) with a guy I had met the 1st year I was in Texas. We met on AOL in their RP world (Rhydin). I was trying to explain US Government to a bunch of Junior High students ( I didn't know they were ALL kids), and he was the only one who got it (being 10 years older than me, of course he would). So that is where I am now. I do have one son (not by my bf saddly) and he has 2. Mine is the youngest at 6. The other two are 9 and 15. SOMETIMES the 15 year old plays NWN.. When I let him. It's my game.. Hehe... So if you see Shadow Darkwood join the game as player, give him hell.. LMAO. Currently my character list consists of: Serishia Sannemen : Wild Life and Plant Preservationist (Druid) Cona Menes : Cyborg Soldier (Monk) and a few that I've created but haven't played with.. Just checking out subraces. on my Alter Ego (Nanuwri) I have my Bard Charmer who I've yet to play b'c the Test Server was down so I played WoW instead. So uh yeah. I'm not REALLY as airheaded as I may seem at times............ no really..... I'm not... you'll see...

Alone and lost in a sea of colonials... I'm a Brit, And felling out-numbered. I work nights, as a rent'a'cop, and the Work PC has an Internet connection And so that's where I do most of my gaming. I do enjoy the odd Sci-fi program, but can't stand that inter-galactic zimmer frame, and Cash in series that have more spin than a Labour spin-doctor. I also war game, and run my own club. I'm working towards joining the Territorial army, as a Scaly-back. Other things: I read allot, and have a house full of books. I'm Dyspraxic (Hence the bad typing). I have the same name as a Famous TV character. And I'm currently single after my fiance broke it off. Oh and before you start complaining Roger: as I've said before, It's the queens English, and the Queen isn't American!

Hello. I am from Reunion Island. 33 years old that do nurse job sometimes. I come here by random walk on servers, tired by my visit of perhaps 40 servers/wow anti-rp/City of heroes easyness, and because i have made a custom post-apocalyptical mods. I am a rpg addicted since i was born, or near. I played lots of roleplaying games. I am a fan of too many things to get a listing... Just a little example: celtic, cyber, post-apo, mythic ages, nwn, darksun, super-heroes, manga, theology, RATM, biology, etc. This world follows entirely my personnal feelings: humour, adventure, and hitech. I am really happy to find it and want to applaude with my four hands!! BRAVO!! i have made "Calliope", an archeress-superstar, and "Experiment Zero" a cyborg. Today i am two days old Very happy to join your universe, i can also help if needed for some scripting, or mapping, etc... I like to take also things from the vault. i have for example made a "blockwar" judge-dredd-style arcology where you can fight frenzy people with random entering doors. A creature that can only be hunted with a "special detector". Equipment breaking. Move slowed by armor weight for pc and npc. Silly crafting french touch (you must drink alcohol or become tired^^). ... A tons of other things... SEE YOU SOON ;D

Well hello everyone.
I'm actually Kosmic aka KrimsonBlood's gf. After seeing him play Itropa so much I decided to give it a whirl. Now I'm hooked.
So who am I? Well I currently reside in the snowy wasts of western Canada. I'm a student pilot working on getting my commercial license. My main interests are anything sci-fi or fantasy. Especially: Dune, Babylon 5, Stargate SG-1 and Starwars. I play several different pen and paper Role Play games currently mainly D&D and Starwars. I absolutely love role play gaming. Okay maybe I'm even a little obsessed with it. Which it why finding a good role play server is so nice. And which is why if I run into people online I'll talk your ear off in character ;-}
Not much else to say here, look forward to seeing you all online.
edit: Thanks to Lord Surge password advice I was able to create my own account. I now play Arith under the user name Tatonya.

Hi there, and we're glad to have you aboard on Itropa. Looking forward to seeing you more IG. Oh, and as for a solution to your lost password problem, I have one. If you open up the file called 'NWNPlayer' (a cfg file) in notepad in your C:/Neverwinternights/NWN folder, you can see your stored password under the 'Profile' heading. Hope this helps.
