What do you call yourself?
Fujiko usually works. Much nicer than a more unique usename.
How'd you find Star Army? What interested you in joining?
Dearly departed Cecily mentioned it to me, and after a year or so she finally talked me into joining. Then I dragged my heels far too long after that, and only now am I really pulling the trigger. Better late than never?
Ever done this text-based roleplaying thing before?
I've done lots of MUSH and IRC-based chat. I don't remember ever doing forum-based RP so this will be a bit new to me.
Any previous experiences you want to share?
Now for the questionnaire!
Do you prefer:
A classic Sorkin-style walk and talk.

Do you prefer:
- Playing male, female, or other-gendered characters? I don't think I've ever played a male character
- Spontaneous or planned RP? Planned in the sense that I like knowing I'm doing an RP on Thursday night. Spontaneous because I don't like to hammer out too many details on what's going to happen.
- Military or civilian characters? I've played both and both can be fun.
- Humans, androids, anthros, or aliens? I tend toward human and human adjacent. I'm not comfy playing, say, scalies or avians. I never thought about it before, but while a cetacean character would be neat, just interacting with non-aquatic characters would be a bit bothersome.
- Being on a starship or being on a planet? Both!
- Roleplay via forum posts or in real-time? As mentioned before, real-time is the sort I have more experiene with. Being as I'm an Adult with adult responsibilities and a full time job I suspect forum posts may fit my schedule better.
- Language: 1, while the occasional potty mouthed character can be, well, in character, I'm not too fond of profanity for profanity's sake.
- Violence: 1, admittedly I am not really much for action-based RP, at least when I'm the one who has to do the actions. But I also draw a line between "clean" space combat, which is violent but in a certain sort of clinical way, and "dirty" hand to hand combat, with all the blood and guts that implies.
- Sexuality: 2, while certainly I can be comfy with 3, it's not (usually) the only reason I'm playing, and sometimes it just gets in the way of the actual storytelling.
