Hi Darlica here, I found out about this place when Big Otis Landfish or Agujjim here posted about this place at the Devils Panties fan forum.
The DP forum is all fine and dandy, but I like to be able to have serious discussions too now and then and to me this place looked like the forum I've been looking for for a long time now.

I'm 32, Swedish, lives with my Significant Other,loves gardening and plants (green fingers runs in the family) would not survive in my flat without my housplants and the balcony, plays RPGs when I get to (and read gaming books when I don't), likes good eating and drinking, is more of a dog person than a cat person, have belifes but I'm not sure in what...
I'm a freelance Illustrator but I work part-time in a wine and booze store to make ends meet.


I shoulden't be here right now, have too much work on my hands, but this place seems so tempting...  :-[ I guess I failed a Will roll.  :)

Hi Darlica,

Welcome! Come on in and make yourself at home. 

Don't mind the mess.  I am doing a little work on the monastery windows and doors today.

Hi.

Welcome to the Monastery.

Watch out for the pirates if you are wanting serious discussion. They don't take much seriously, up to and including themselves.

Apart from pirates, Swatopluk has his lab. That's best viewed from afar.

Oh, and the Moat is full of Squidlings....

It is a happy place to come and be. I'm sure you will find somewhere to fit in, everybody does.

*takes a peek in the pirates cove* :o

:D
I'm not that serious all the time and I wouldn't like to be either. On the contrary, most of the time I like goofing around. I guess when I'm in that mood I'm on a sliding scale between naughty and right down impish.
I'm not much of a pirate though, but I may change, I'm pretty good at that Pirates Of the Spanish Main game and as I said before I like to roleplay.

I guess the reason I'm here is that I found the "Mission Statement" paired with the contents (both the fun and the more serious stuff) of the board very appealing.

I don't think anyone here know me from any other place IRL or on-line however I'm also known under the alias Carduus and little_thistle at various places and as Darlica at rpg dot net. where I mostely lurked.

Welcome, come in and enjoy!

We've got a fun and interesting Monastery with lots of places to explore and stuff to do, so don't get too lost. I tend to wander off into the gardens and nap at times, so that noise is me snoring, NOT a 7 headed Ravenous SnortyBeast looking for its dinner.

Ahh, so that was you? I thougth I heard someting when I was taking a stroll earlier to day.
I should really take pictures of my balcony and post in the container gardening thread but I think that has to wait until I have a bit more time, I'm swamped right now with things I should do but don't want to do. :-\

The only person I know that even comes close to my father for sheer volume is my uncle.

Went to a safari lodge in Uganda with both of them. Under canvas. It really wasn't fair to the tourists, no animals came within a mile of the camp. Which meant I got the job of driving the clapped out wreck of a Land Rover, while Clint (my friend who was running the place) desperately tried to find wildlife to show to his guests.

In the dark. Only lights were Clint's torch (not pointed at the road) and my headtorch. Luckily the tourists had no idea how many times I nearly killed them. And when we got back, the noise was so bad I was asked to go and wake them up. Happy days, happy days.

It sound like heaven- course I like that kind of stuff- that's a good mental picture

Oh and Darlica--- don't take IOU's from the pirates  ;)

Welcome Darlica...

If you see a drunken person lying somehere around teh monastery, that'd probably me... Just try to jump over my body... Don't wake me up, I can be a little nasty, when woken up from a beautiful dream... ;)


Oh, and welcome... If you enjoy beer, you'd fit right in, if not, you'll fit right in as well... :D
