Basically, it's an MMORPG, only with the emphasis on RP rather than the combat and stats, and it's entirely text-based. I play as [[http://thereachmux.org/wiki/Brom Brom Bones]], a [[ChangelingTheLost changeling]]. Drop by some time, why don't you?

* I was also a player on [[http://darkwater-mux.net/index.php/Main_Page Darkwater]], before it unfortunately died. There, I played as [[http://darkwater-mux.net/index.php/Croft Ryan Croft]], another changeling.

* I have also been on various other forums under various other names. Mostly, my username is Unbeliever, though sometimes it's Foolamancer. You may recognize me from such sites as TheThinkingAtheist, the James Randi Educational Foundation forums, or MythWeavers.

* [[{{UsefulNotes/Atheism}} Atheist]]: To be specific, I'm a gnostic strong atheist. I believe that we ''can'' know (not that we necessarily ''do'' know, mind you, but that we ''can'') whether or not any gods exist, inasmuch as we can "know" anything (and that's a whole 'nother philosophic can of worms that I don't care to give a treatise on at this time). I actively believe that no god ''as I would define the term'' exists, because the only being which I would accept as a god and not just a SufficientlyAdvancedAlien is logically contradictory (again, treatise for another time). I am, however, open to evidence to the contrary; this is a definite [[SubvertedTrope subversion]] of HollywoodAtheist.

* NoSocialSkills: Asperger's syndrome is fun that way. Mainly, though, it just means I'm very direct, miss subtext, and have an extremely thick skin, so yeah.
* TheSpock: Very much so. Asperger's and a natural knack for things like symbolic logic, debate, and so on tend to make me very direct and blunt when discussing things. When I'm not too busy being a LargeHam, that is.
* HollywoodAtheist: Subverted. Definitely an atheist, but I'm not particularly bothered about anyone else's beliefs, not unaware of TheBible and stuff like that, and so on.

!Foolish In-Game Tropes
* ShootTheMedicFirst: Oh dear god yes. I am ''always'' the Medic or Medic variant in games where it is available. I love it. In several of my gaming circles, this trope is replaced with a rule stating flat-out "Shoot Fool First".
* CombatMedic: Usually. I focus on the healing, but I'm competent enough with the weaponry to defend myself, particularly in MondayNightCombat.
* ChaoticNeutral: When I first started playing RPGs, most of my characters ended up as this.
* LawfulNeutral: Then I graduated to this...
* LawfulGood: And now I'm this. This is most properly displayed in my current character, Brom Bones, linked to below.
* GoodIsNotDumb: Depending on the character. Pretty reliable when I'm playing, though.
* DumpStat: Usually, but not always, Strength.

* TalkingIsAFreeAction: I usually do my best to avoid doing this.

!Games I Play
