It occurred to me that the malfunctioning portal is kinda weak, and I'll probably be changing it.
Just FYI.
I feel like I'm commenting too much on my own post.
I've finally gotten off my lazy butt and written the samples and agent profiles and whatnot.
So, here goes, I suppose.
Name: Tethra Kronia
Age: About 8 Solar Sweeps, 18 in human years
Home Continuum: Homestuck
Species: Troll
Department: Floaters
Fandoms: Homestuck, Harry Potter, Portal
Weapons: Longbow
Brief History: According to the caste system, Tethra is about middle class, with light green blood. Her Lusus may or may not be brought up later, depending on circumstances. She got to the PPC through an accidental mirror-portal which lead to the fanfiction Aly was currently working on. This accidental portal was made by Aly. This occured years- or a few solar sweeps, as it may be- before the the trolls got SGRUB. On entering the fic where Aly was and discovering that she was from a word world, decided against returning to Alternia.
Name: Allison (Aly) Greenburg
Age: 27
Home Continuum: Original Continuum
Species: Human
Department: Floaters
Fandoms: Homestuck, Doctor Who, Harry Potter, Portal, Amber Chronicles, various other fairly obscure canons
Weapons: Paintbrush, glaive, or staff.
Brief History: From an original continuum, in which people with the certain brushes can draw on midair and summon things. (I tried to make that as simple as possible so this doesn't turn into a huge paragraph. Pah.) Long story short, she fell through an old plothole in the canon (that has since been fixed) into the PPC and decided to stay. A few years and various nondescript partners later, the console had a small malfunction, accidentally opening a portal to the Homestuck verse. She’s really bad at lying and keeping secrets in general.
Here's my sample. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zPiylEK20vqYJu8xZYpah74e4nsJuQXlpapXV6u-tU/edit?hl=enUS&authkey=CKWlsKkH
The profiles are on there, too, with some extra unnecessary information. Just as notes for myself and all.
After the profiles is my sample, and after that is a second sample/intro to the PPC.
I think that's it, but if I'm missing anything, point it out.
Thanks!
I don't know Homestruck, so I'm trusting Firebird's enthusiasm to tell me all's well there.
Aside from a few miscellaneous technical errors, I didn't see any problems in either writing sample, and I like the idea that Tethra can't hear the Flowers. I also really want to see that paintbrush in action, because it sounds like a neat idea. Thus, go forth and spork, and be merry!
Oh, and don't worry about the portal malfunction thing. Every other character arrives by a plothole of some sort--the other ones are recruited directly--so it's not a big deal if you don't change it. Almost nobody gets here on purpose. {= )

Allow me to squeal over a potential other troll Agent. What's her sign?
She doesn't really...HAVE a sign. It's a crow-theme-thing, so it's this thing 
in green.
Oooh, you have a troll agent, too? Do tell, what's their name/blood color/sign or whatever?
She hasn't actually appeared in any missions yet, so...
My troll Agent is Norion Gliese. She was a bit character in a fic, so due to lack of description she has Generic Grey blood and no official sign. She prefers to think of the DMS flash patch as her sign. Her handle is accompliceLightning.
When I use her for non-PPC roleplays, she has yellow-green (closer to yellow) blood and uses one of the alchemical symbols for aluminum as her sign.
Does she have an actual pesterchum account with it for roleplays and whatnot?
I don't use instant messaging for roleplays or pretty much anything. Thus, I don't have pesterchum and don't have an account for her. I do email or forum roleplays, generally.
I've only had one roleplay with Norion, and that one died. Pretty early on, actually.
