Aftershock - The Bear on Two Legs
[/size][/b]Well, let's see, a little about the "real" me... my real name is ████... if you don't see it, and don't already know it, then you can probably get to know me and I'll let you know.
I'm the only active male on the site (at the moment), and also the oldest player at 30 years old. Ivy is one of my closest friends in person, though since some things have changed we haven't had nearly as much chance to hang out like we used to... but I treasure the moments we do. 
I'm not very interesting, honestly... I rarely leave my house unless someone invites me, I'm a teetotaler, and I spend most of my time RPing (either here, on another site, or with my two groups of in-person friends for physical pen-and-paper Pathfinder games) or playing computer games. I have three large tattoos (planning on getting almost my entire upper torso inked when I have the money), and lots of my friends call me a "bear" for multiple reasons (though not that kind of bear, I'm straight.
). I'm pretty open, though, and if you talk to me, feel free to ask me anything.Though I originally came on this site due to Ivy, I've made lots of friends here, and have had a lot of fun. I'm hoping one day one of us gets a bunch of money so we can all get plane tickets and meet up in person... that'll be a party to remember, for sure.
