one more for the newbie train choo choo

YES HELLO. My name is Kri and I'm new (obviously, but I'm bad at intros, so). I'm bringing you this bag of terrible choices and teenage regrets: Effy Stonem from Skins. She's a fae in the Unseelie Court, though as a changeling she's still feeling hella unsure about literally all of this, so for a while, she's gonna be a total pain in the ass to deal with. I apologize in advance.

I have her permissions post here, and you can reach me on plurk any time as [plurk.com profile] posolutely if you wanna chat. I'm super excited, it's nice to meet you guys!

Hey Kri! Welcome!

I'm Shea, and I adoooore Effy omfg. It'll be great to see her around here. I've got Nancy here from Oliver Twist, who was actually in a semi-similar position. Just the opposite. Then there's also Annie from the Hunger Games, who is a boring human with Hillingdon. I'm looking forward to playing with you!

More fae! Yay!

Hello! I'm Jack and I play the fae-touched Lancelot here, who smells like Seelie magic but is police officer and a Night Council Guardian therefore the official Fun Police, and Gilbert Norrell, who is a witch member of the Night Council that everyone in the fae courts currently wants to dead for being a pain the ass.

I look forward to playing with you! c:

You got it!

Oh man, you'd be surprised how few people I run into that have actually read it! Mostly I get people that know the musical. Which is... cheerier. By far.

Yesss

Hello and welcome!! I'm Teresa and I play a few guys here and I'll give you the run-down if you'll forgive my copy/pasting from all over the place right now (THERE ARE SO MANY OF YOU INTROING RIGHT OKAY ITS GREAT I just don't have enough interesting ways to say the same things HAHA). Here at UG I play:

Faolan who's grumpy and grumbly with a secret soft nougaty center, who happens to be Head of Hillingdon and also secretly a Night Council Guardian as well; Childermass who's Norrell's under-appreciated right hand man, both a witch in Daybreak and an admin in the Night Council; and a trashy vampire named Jean-Claude (yes, that Jean-Claude, terrible I know) who is 600+ years old, flirty and French and he owns an all-male strip club named Guilty pleasures...

All three of them have all sorts of things going on right now and I'm not sure what sort of CR we will have but I am very interested to find out! ALSO my plurk is [plurk.com profile] lycanthropy101 if you would care to friend and/or do plotting with me, and in the meanwhile welcome aboard!! c:

Fair enough! The musical softens things. Actually, a lot of the adaptions soften things. grumblegrumble

SUPER LATE TO THE PARTY. HI.

Welcome! I'm Emily and I play this kid (who is actually An Old) and Simon O'Neill (who is actually a puppy). Both seriously side-eye fae, which should be fun. Simon just got made a Guardian and he's stuck with Norrell a lot so he has to be kind of anti-fae. Joscelin doesn't really care. He just hates everyone.

Looking forward to threading with you!
