Hello to those of you that clicked on my post, and even those of you who didn't. I'm really, really, reeaallly bad at introductions; so, I am just going to go right on ahead and answer those fun questions posted in the topic stickied to the top of the thread!

My username, located somewhere near this post I am sure, is The0therZamber. I chose this username because I mushed together my gamer tag and my IRL nickname. It's that simple, for real.

I found this place by using The Google. I find most things on the internet with The Google's help, so I'm not too terribly surprised. You probably shouldn't be either. :)

I have roleplayed through forums for a while - starting with Gaia six million years ago. I have done tabletops since then, but play-by-post was my first introduction to roleplaying. The tabletops I have been involved in include DnD 3rd, 3.5, 4th, Pathfinder, the Firefly Roleplaying Game, 13th Age, and currently Numenera.

I came to RPG to rediscover my love for play-by-post roleplaying. I recently graduated and find myself with time on my hands. I want something productive and fun to fill it with.

I am interested in all different types of roleplays. Fantasy is classic for me and sci-fi can be hardcore engaging. Fandom roleplays, when handled well, can be exquisite. A niche genre for me would probably be that post-apocalyptic, dystopian survival roleplay, though. Even a fantasy-inspired, post-apocalyptic, dystopian survival roleplay would be bomb - arguably, even better.

I have hobbies. Number one, and I don't know if this actually counts, is being a mom. I have a 17 month old daughter and she's the best. I also love to cook and bake. As a result, I also work out quite often - a way to combat the fact that I eat most of the things I bake. Video games would be another hobby, or at least playing video games would be. I am currently in the middle of Skyrim, Dark Souls, Dishonored, Far Cry 3, and Assassin's Creed: Revelations. I am currently about 50% of the way through all of them (except for Dark Souls, which can die in a fire). My relationship with video games is... complicated.

Some things that I am good at besides writing? I'd have to refer you to the above list. I'd say I'm good at being a mom, baking, and doing squats. I'm also a really phenomenal sleeper; you need someone to get some sleeping done for you, I'm your woman. I also have a pretty good memory - it can be a little creepy.

I do not have any friends here at RPG, but I expect I will eventually make some roleplaying buddies.

Lastly, and most importantly, do you get cookies for looking through this thread and saying hello? As I said, I do actually bake and I would love for you to try some of my cookies! Unfortunately, the physical location of your mouth is a mystery to me and my cookies, so you'll have to settle for these internet ones. -presents upon those reading this with two, freshly baked, internet cookies-

That's it! I'll be lurking, if you need me. :)
"Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man."

Well you're in for a real treat. RPGateway is a magical place that often results in the destruction of your world, or at least destroys your free time, but in a fun creative way.

Ignore what's under my avatar, I've been here for years. I was just under a different names back then. (I'm not going to admit to starting on Gaia as well) Anyhow, DnD; YES! although it has been a while since I last played it. My brother and I used to take turns as DM, good times.

Postapocalyptic eh? I love the genre myself, but find it difficult to roleplay without the right group. Assassin Creed, Skyrim, Farcry, I can play those games all day! too bad my Xbox broke last month. It's probably for the best.

As for the internet cookies, I would like to make a request for internet brownies if that's not too much internet trouble.

I too lurk in the land of this place, often finding unsuspecting role plays and attacking with my arsenal of creativity.

After taking a good look around, I'm pretty excited to be here. I have no doubt it'll eat up all the time I let it (at least I have responsibilities that demand my attention, so I can't get too lost....... right?).

Ah, I've learned to accept the shame of my Gaia-filled nights from back in the day. Life's a learning experience and I've moved on to bigger and better things! It's been a while since I've played anything before 4th edition, but my Pathfinder experience is pretty recent. I have to say the focus on combat in 4th and Pathfinder really drove me to trying Numenera. It's pretty fantastic and, if you're into far-future exploration-based table tops and plan on trying one again, I'd highly recommend it.

Yes! I love a good, realistic post-apocalypse roleplay, but without the right kind of players it gets boring, tedious, and frustrating. I played through AC I, II, and Brotherhood in really quick succession and I find myself burnt out, unfortunately. I didn't think it was possible to get tired of sneak attacking the bajezus out of everyone, but it happened.

Sorry about your XBox. :( I don't know what I'd do without mine.

I haven't made internet brownies in a while, so I had to dig out my internet recipe book. I hope they're satisfactory!

To be one hundred percent honest, I can think of much worse things for a roleplay to be assaulted with. I've yet to attempt engaging in a roleplay. I'll probably lurk another thousand years before I do. I have attempting-to-join-roleplay-group shyness. It's a curse.
