History Tropers / Euodiachloris

My background is fairly general, with a bias towards the social sciences and amateur attempts at writing. Better foreign language? Is Afrikaans. Even still[[hottip:*:Gratuitous use of South African English]]. En 'n lang en komplekse storie dit is[[hottip:*:Gratuitous use of Afrikaans: it will only make sense if you know the argot. Or speak Dutch, Flemish, Frisian and/or Limburgish.]].

I'm a major fan of [[TerryPratchett Terry Pratchett's]] work, and have been for decades. Which is basically what got me into tropes in the first place. You can't read him and not bump into them in all shapes, sizes and colours.

Other media happen, but for me, the word will always be king. And the crown of that king has always been Speculative Fiction of most known types in my eyes. (Hence, {{NeilGaiman}} also happens to lurk on my shelves in several forms.)

I like playing Dryads in RP. Or other Fae-like critters if the GM screams at me about the whole movement thing. I don't try to analyse that too much, but my long-standing [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Chronic Fatigue]] TheSameButMore Syndrome (ME)]] is probably a factor.

Fairly new to this whole thing - hence, yet to get to grips with markups, links 'n stuff. Will get there. Hopefully.

Oh - and 'ignorant' is not the same as 'stupid', yet can be very, very foolish.
