I've been here for a bit, and still never bothered to do this, so I figured it was time to be only fair, and invest a bit.
I am Kris. I also own a kris.
To give a short summation of my character, were I to be subjected to the whims of the Sorting Hat, my house would change daily. One moment I'd be a fluffy Hufflepuff, the next I might be a Gryffindor martyr, then an overstressing Ravenclaw at exam time, then as vicious as the Slytherin stereotype. In short, I'm mercurial.
Some of my favorite characters are: Severus Snape [Harry Potter], James Norrington [Pirates of the Caribbean], Jareth the Goblin King [Labyrinth], Father Abel Nightroad [Trinity Blood], Lord Sesshomaru [Inuyasha], Dr. Daniel Jackson [Stargate/Stargate SG-1],Tassadar [StarCraft], Erik (the Phantom) [The Phantom of the Opera], and Mr. Darcy [Pride and Prejudice)], to name a few.
I've been playing Dungeons & Dragons for going on six years, and often draw from that in my usage/creation of my characters. I've played as a Dungeon Master for the last three years or so, and respect anyone that can pull it off well, of whom I do not count myself.
I have been role playing on internet sites such as Neopets for going on seven years now. I have an avid interest in many kinds of video/computer games, though I can't indulge as much as when I was younger. My current favorite games are The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, Tetris, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II.
I have no interest in outdoor sports, or most active/outdoor activities, stemming from three reasons, though two tie into each other. One, is I am albino (meaning I have a genetic lack melanin, a pigmentation in the skin and hair), which leaves me quite sensitive, and vulnerable, to the sun. Two, tied in with my albinism, I have poor vision, enough so that I can only just legally drive. Three is rather simple, I'm lazy.
My native language is English, and I'd like to think I speak it fluently. I have also studied German, Chinese, and Latin (organized by amount of knowledge currently about each language). I am fascinated by languages, and hope to be able to get into college and seek a profession centering around then, or one of the sciences, preferrably astronomy, chemistry, or biology.
My favorite season is autumn.
My favorite celestial body is Pluto. While no longer counted as a planet, I am a staunch supporter of that lump of rock and ice.
My favorite creature is (currently) the trilobite.
The phrase "Vivas amare me, et vivo amare te" means "You live to love me, and I live to love you."
My favorite color is grey/silver, followed by a tie between blue and green.
I have a cat with a crippled leg imaginatively named Bear. His fur pattern is called smoke, according to an old encyclopedia I was flipping through a year or so ago.
I am the fourth of five children, and bear little resemblance, physically or otherwise, to the rest of my family.
I work as a cashier at a local store, leaving me with an unsteady work schedule, that might be seen as annoying.
I have a wide taste in music, and will often hum to myself, whether safe in the privacy of my home, or out in public, it doesn't matter.
My favorite foods are mostly homemade: chicken noodle soup, popcorn, and chocolate ice cream.
I occasionally say too much, like right now, so I'll just stop right there for now. If I think of more you might want to know, I'll add it on. In the unlikely event of questions, feel free to ask.
