Well, she's a slug. A giant slug who spits acids and replicates into millions or tiny slugs.

She once fought alongside a giant frog with a dagger against a giant snake with horns. She ended up sitting back as the frog turns the snake into roast reptile.

No, this isn't allegory.

Nilp's avatars have had a strong impact on the way I view him. When I think of the lad I always view some anime character never an actual human...but maybe I'm not too far off

Nilp, you should know that I'm not the slug herself.

morm, all he and his avatar have in common is the long, black hair. Aside from that, he can only wish he looks like his avatar. Especially those red eyes.

(to Nilp)

Actually, morm, you shouldn't listen to my sluggish sister. I am actually the guy in my avvie. She should know. I burnt her to a crisp with my divine illumination technique once.

Actually, the photo he plans to post in the BD album would have him resembling the guy in his avvie. So there.

Alice, no spoilers!

The Ghosted Princess has that air about her of supreme self-possession and accomplishment, but this is hardly unexpected given her real life affairs.

In her other life, she is the headmistress of a Swiss finishing school for girls--the composed and polished woman of a certain age who acts always with great aplomb. She is elegant, with a cordial, urbane manner which never patronises others but which subtly announces, one might even say, imposes, her authority. She is imperturbable.

When wearing skirts, her silk slips swish ever so slightly; her hair is never out of place. When she walks, one can still see the mannerisms of her training: she could walk balancing a book on her head without dropping it and descend a staircase without looking down.

An accomplished horsewoman, she still rides regularly, although music is her stronger forté. She both sings and plays the piano for her private amusement and that of her closest companions. Her parfum is Chanel #5 and her signature in life is Alléger, suprimer, ne garder que l'essentiel, tel est le secret de l'intemporel.

But on the whole, it's a wonderful princess description, and if you think Fiona when you think of me, that's a nice daytime (= virtual) persona. Another by night (= RL)...

Dear Eonwe, that small guy is none but Gandy himself!

TGWBS is on keyboards, because every group needs their insane, shrieking keyboard player (well, maybe 'needs' isn't the right word.....anyway, he's there!) Though he will probably be the first one kicked out for substance abuse.

what makes you say that? And I'd be glad to be the shrieker.

Tall? My, my. Your guess gives me an extra inch, m'boy. And I thought we agreed to keep those panpipes on the down low.

My. That must be Enca who's 5'9" then. Very similar, you two. And you'll figure those pipes out in no time.

Quote:

TGWBS is not short. My imagination will not allow him to be. He is about 5'9", maybe taller, and... well... shh, but he's actually Orlando Bloom.

I don't understand the recurrence of the "TGWBS is tall" theme. I can only conclude that the rest of you are all abusing substances, as opposed to me...
Orlando Bloom though? I certainly wouldn't mind that.

Eomer, now that he has formed a band, is the typical thin-as-a-stick rock star. He believes in the attractive qualities of eyeliner, encouraging other members to undergo the same make-up processes as him. He wields a pink guitar (a manly pink, that is) and shrieks a lot when excited in the middle of a song.

Glirdan is constantly eating something very bright and sugary.

The Saucepan Man's home is void of spam. Many pots and pans hang from the walls.

Kath lives in a pub. The house on her left is also a pub. The house on her right... yeah. The house opposite hers? You get the idea. As a result, Kath is constantly in a state of relaxed happiness, but extremely forgetful.

Nilp is his avatar, and bounces or skips rather than walking.
