I guess I'm so used to an introduction thread I'm a bit thrown off that there isn't one. Unless perhaps I'm blind.

Hi there! Welcome to the forums!

Nope, we don't have an introduction thread, but you're welcome to start one, as you already have!

What are your favorite adventure games?

Welcome to my base of operations, where I, Jazhara Ludkannah Walborgd Seveen, Loony Empress and Ruler of all Humanity overlook the fight against humanities greatest foe: The grey squirrel.

I advise you not to wander into dark corners. Mr. Grue might be reformed, but there have been unexplained disappearances from the forums at times, and while I don't want to say that our good friend Mr. Grue might have had a fall back to old habits...just don't wander into the dark corners, okay?

Also, hide your cakes and Pillows or my dear widdle Iggy might steal them.

"Hey! I'm not that small any longer, Mom!"

Don't mind the Angeldragon. She's a dear.

Welcome to the Forums!

>>You forgot me.<<

I did that on purpose.

>>I'll still remove their memory of how they got here, you know?<<

I know Jazhara666. But be gentle with the mallet, okay?

>>You wish!<<

I'm standing in an open field west of a white house, with a boarded front door.
There is a small mailbox here.

Hah. Thanks for the welcome. My online handle is Daishi but for Adventure Game purposes I'm going by The Golden Anvil since I'm producing a game by that name (see what I did there?).

Favorite adventure games? Well since we've already referenced textventures, I can start there. Zork, obviously. Trinity. A Mind Forever Voyaging.

A little more modern... Tex Murphy games were great. The Sierra line, such as King's Quest and Space Quest. Lucasarts games... Monkey Island, Grim Fandango, Full Throttle, Loom, the Dig, Sam and Max, and my favorite, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis.

More recent... The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Runaway (Despite its awful voice acting), The Whispered World. Telltale's stuff like Tales of MI, the Sam and Max seasons.

Oh. Peasant's Quest!

Welcome aboard the ghost pirate ship Aggie's Revenge (not to be confused with those other pirates, who aren't safe in these waters). Here you will meet the oddest assortment of Adventure Game refugees and AG-curious dilettantes anywhere to be found on the net. We only bite when provoked at gunpoint.

Looking forward to hearing more about your WIP.

I appreciate the warm welcome, it's really appreciated!

As for the work in progress, for brief examples of the characters, we have
Scared Citizen 1!


And the project mascot, this monkey guy I've yet to name!

No, I love your movie! Well, that one was called Anvil! The Story of Anvil, but I assume you were somehow involved.

Anyway, welcome!

Hells yeah, we need fresh blood here.. to drink! Mwahahahaha!

No, I'm not into Twilight, I just accidentally set up a really bad and obvious joke there. Although I have been compared to Count Chocula because of the thick accent I used to sport. And you will find my existence here is mostly limited to coffin dwelling (i.e. lurking). Alas, I've gone on with vampire "humor" long enough, and my disdain of Twilight is in danger of being brought into question. I will concede, however, that the only vampire media I ever liked was the movie "Let me in". So yeah, I'm honestly not at all obsessed!

hehe.. he
