Don't worry about the emoticons. :D
I'm Aeidhryn :D
The perpetual newbie :D
and I have a present... wait.... uh.... yes, I do.

One lighter, several Skör bars, and, because I finished reading the Fifth Elephant, a wolfhound, Jara. Her brother is Cedric, which I gave to whatsthename. Don't feed her 'Sue.

You here a sound. It was faint at first, just at the edge of one's hearing, but as the wind kicked up, the sound came in clearer, louder. A screeching, grinding wail, rhythmically pulsing like the beat of a human heart. A light appeared, shimmering in time, and with every pulse grew brighter. Then, with a clunk and a whir, a large blur police box solidified, the wail petering off into a gentle sub-sonic hum. The Door on the side of the police box opens and a tall thin man pops out.

"Hello, I'm the Doctor." To the uneducated observer, this tall thin man looked like some kind of crazed old-fashioned professor, with his tweed jacket and suspenders and bow-tie, but he was too young to be a professor, his hair hair coiffed in some kind of ridiculous pompadour. But his eyes, his eyes gave away what he really was. They were eyes that had seen empires rise, galaxies come into being, stars being born, and all of them return to dust. Eyes that had seen everything. Eyes that right now were looking rather confused.

"Oh, I am terribly sorry sir," He said after looking around. "I seem to have wandered into here by mistake. I'll be going now." And with those words the man popped back into his box and, in a inverted but similar method to its arrival, the police box vanishes. As the last waves of sound fade an average sized, average blond man in a black duster walks around a corner and slows to a stop next to you.

"Rammu." He says, looking you over. "You must be new. Please allow me to give you a gift." He hands you a book titled 'How to Make Your Own Keyblade by Tetsuya Nomura' and walks off. "Have fun now." He calls over his shoulder.

Welcome to the Board! Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *indicates bucket marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't need it here.

Have a gun. Sometimes you just want to shoot that damned (and often suvian) OC.

Have a panda that eats, shoots and leaves!

(Also, yay for another Sailor Moon fan.)

Welcome to the Board! Here, have some chocolate, and enjoy your stay!

Fair winds!

Now you can throw BBQs.

Have a pet cat. You may name him whatever you wish. If you name him after a Pokemon, you get bonus points.

I hereby present you with your very own demonic canary! Every full moon, it turns into... a werecrow that eats Sues' eyeballs!

Birdseed will do the rest of the time.

Do not feed it Sues.

Though I don't use the latter half of my name often, it was too fun not to.

And, three cheers for someone /else/ who knows KHR!. Sweet Mew, those are hard to come by. How current are you?

Anyway, here is a brain-sized flame-retardant leash-and-harness set, for when you don't want your mind a-wanderin', and welcome to the Board!

Have an assortment of pointy objects including, but not limited to, pencils, fingers and a selection of Chick Tracts.

Welcome from a fellow Pokemon and LoTR fan! *hands you a Murkrow's Pokeball* Enjoy the bird, he's a cheeky little git but that should be expected.

I personally favor Charizard, particularly the shiny variant... no I'm not a pyro, why do you ask? >_>

Welcome, new friend!

Have a dusk stone on a key chain! You can either use it to evolve a Murkrow, or turn it into a keyblade!

It's really nice to meet you! Just be careful around these parts, though. You might never know when something might jump out and attempt to ambush you.

Hello! Have a seventeen foot long, multicolored, wool, knit scarf (curly wig not included), and a bag of jelly babies.

Please use them IRresponsibly!

Glad to have you, and so long as you remember to use emoticons judiciously nobody's gonna bite your head off... I think. Here, have a sonic screwdriver and a bag of jelly babies, please use responsibly!

Nice to meet you. Don't worry, a lot of people use emoticons around here - just so long as they're understandable, it's just fine :)
