Introduction
I have never in my life called roleplaying, roleplaying. To me it was just characters that I found interesting and decided to write about. Yet, I find myself here on FOG. My interests range from a variety of topics. I’m pretty much open to anything unless it’s overtly sexual or sci-fi. I am not an avid gamer and I know nothing of warlocks. The closest to fantasy I am is Harry Potter and possibly Lord of the Rings. All I need is patience. I am very excited to get started and I hope I get to read some good writing. I like to watch action movies, especially ones about war. I also like drama movies that aren’t entirely based on love. I like to dance and sing even though I’m not very good. That’s about it.

Welcome to FOG Weirdo!
Hopefully you will enjoy writing on this site as much as I have (although I'm still waiting for both roleplays I am in to pick up the pace a little bit...). I'm glad I finally got one of my friends to join FOG and perhaps we will be in the same roleplay later on.
Have fun!

I'm turned on by war movies myself; I hope we have a chance to collaborative in a great combat role play in the future.

Welcome to FoG, Wired!
So, have you actually role-played in the past, or have you only done solo writing? Either way, you're definitely welcome here! It's always good to try new things, too, and to expand one's interests.
You won't have to worry about over-sexualized role-playing on FoG. Because our highest rating is R, having two characters have sex is against our rules. There can be allusions to it, but the actual act must be a fade-to-black sort of deal. Besides, you can always feel free to make it clear to you role-play partner(s) that you don't want anything to do with sexual encounters and the like. ^^_^^
Like you, I don't like games that are solely based on romance - it's just a little too boring for me - but I do like games that maybe have a touch of it though it's not necessary.
I'm Kathryn, and I'm one of the moderators of this great site! If you need any advice or have any questions or have any concerns, you can come to me or to any of our other staff members. We're all open, friendly, and willing to speak with the members.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy your stay!

Welcome to FOG, Wired! I am surprised Red Wolf found a recruit! I hope you enjoy the role playing experience or if nothing else, playing around the OOC forums like Mr. Wolf.

(Well, it can go a bit more than fade-to-black. In fact, as long as it's tastefully done and has a significant purpose in the story, there aren't that many restrictions at all. The line is drawn at sex for sex's sake, or if it's explicitly written or overly graphic. Erotica, no; sex in the story, yes.)

I was the same way until Ryona introduced me to role-playing. I prefer... collaborative writing over role-playing itself, though I can't say I haven't learned a lot about writing in my time here.
Anyway, welcome to the boards! I hope you enjoy your time here
