I'm so proud of you! So, since I joined before you, I'd love to have the honor of giving you your first Newbie Gift!
Have a full set of dice! All of your favourite shapes: d3, d6, d8, two d10s, d12, and the all-important d20. Have fun making decisions with these! (Or killing monsters. That's a function too.)
You DID need another d10, didn;t you?
Hello and greetings to you all! As you have most probably noticed, I am referring to myself as Loremaster Yn'Taris. If you want to make it a bit shorter (because even I'll admit that 'Loremaster Yn'Taris' is a bit of a mouthful. Keyboardful. Whatever.), then I'll be perfectly fine with the 'Loremaster' bit being dropped. Or some strange and peculiar derivation being adopted. Either one is fine.
Anyways, my sister (whom you may know as Calliope) recommended this place to me, and I responded by saying something to the basic effect of 'Sure, that sounds fun!'. Some days later, I then found myself sitting here typing this message you are now reading. Funny ole world, isn't it?
As for which fandoms I consider myself a member/participant/creepy stalker of, it is primarily the Elder Squirrels Series (better known as Elder Scrolls, for some strange and peculiar reason), as well as, more peripherally, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Star Trek (Mostly Voyager, but even then I'm only at the beginning of Season 3. No spoilers!), Dwarf Fortress, EVE Online, and the Paradox Grand Strategy games. There are also probably a fair few that I can't remember off the top of my head, but we don't talk about those.
For entertainment, I enjoy:
Writing
Reading
Gaming (semi-casually)
Walking in Circles
Talking in strange accents and dialects
Pretending to be someone I'm not
Plotting to take over the world
Dismissing my plots to take over the world
Relentlessly mocking everyone and everything near me.
Including myself in the aforementioned mockery.
Browsing TvTropes
And more, but I've already put more than enough here, I think.
As far as just how active I'm likely to be here, I do tend to hover at the periphery of any group I'm a part of, occasionally making a sarcastic quip or two, and relentlessly poking fun at anything and everything nearby, including myself. Especially myself. In short, I'm the creepy guy who only ever says anything to be sarcastic about something (When I'm not going into Human Encyclopedia mode, that is. Again, we don't talk about that. Except for when we do.)
Anywho, I'm going to go ahead and quit while I'm ahead and (hopefully) before I make a fool of myself, and go ahead and post this. I shall now end this post in an awkward fashion, because I suck at writing conclusions. Always have, probably always will. [Insert Overly Dramatic Sigh Here] Ah, well. Such is the life of Yn'Taris.
Welcome to the PPC Board! For your newbie gift, have this guitar! It can magically calm dragons when a lullaby is played on it.
Welcome to the PPC! Enjoy your stay!
Here's a Ravenclaw scarf, some seed cakes, and a copy of your favorite in-universe book from Elder Scrolls! Also, if you haven't already read the Original Series and Constitution, I strongly advise you to do so.
Tell me, my friend, which one was your favourite?
Was it Squirrelrim, perhaps? Where the gameplay involved eating everything in sight, to build up fat to survive the cold?
Squirrelblivion? I wasn't too fond of that, and all the acorns looked too blurry.
Or how about Squirrelwind?
Or maybe you like the classics? Elder Squirrels Squirena? Squirrelfall?
Well, I know exactly what gift to give you! I bestow upon you: a squirrel-sized mallet. For breaking open those acorns, without munting your teeth! Yeah!
Welcome, mate. The legion of sarcastic ponces who don't ultimately add all that much gladly welcomes you in!
Aside from one of my own shed feathers and a complimentary kit of Spikes, have a working Golden Snitch with a Pokeball engraving and a replica One Ring that totally doesn't make you invisible!
Please have a bag of black-hole chocolates to celebrate. Guess you know all the basics by now, so welcome to the madhouse.
I'm usually not one for chocolate, but when it comes with black holes, I'm all in!
Bad-dum, tss!
I have been giving the honor of presenting you with your Discord Invite!

This calls for a celebration! Cheese for everyone! Actually, wait, no, scratch that. Cheese for no-one! That can be just as much of a celebration, if you don't like cheese!
Get out of my brother.
Welcome! Pull up a beanbag and make yourself comfortable. (Word of advise, avoid the wall rug. It's made of a skunk...'s butt)
Now, I should have something for you somewhere... Hold on... Oh!
I need to make more Infinite Pizza for the future, but I hope a barrel of Industrial Sprinkles is okay for now.
Ah, but the Skunk Butt Rugs are the most delightfully scented rugs ever put forth by man, mer, or beast. I hear that they make most wonderful gifts for arctic shrews.
As for the sprinkles, I'm sure that I can find some... interesting applications for them.
Tar-Tar has never Gravity Falls-ed. The glory of this reference is lost on him.
Hello, and welcome aBoard! For your newbie gift, take this plate of freshly-made SPaGhetti!
We've been waiting for you to show up ever since Calli mentioned you would be. Mind if I call you Lore?
Glad to have you with us at last!
Many thanks, Iximaz. Spaghetti is, in fact one of my preferred dishes, and I shall quite enjoy consuming it.
I have also been informed that it represents, spelling, grammar, and punctuation. This is also highly appreciated, and shall be consumed as well. I shall take it in my hand and put it in my face-mouth.
I'm so proud of you! So, since I joined before you, I'd love to have the honor of giving you your first Newbie Gift!
Have a full set of dice! All of your favourite shapes: d3, d6, d8, two d10s, d12, and the all-important d20. Have fun making decisions with these! (Or killing monsters. That's a function too.)
You DID need another d10, didn;t you?
That semicolon in the middle of a word was meant to be an apostrophe.
