Many greetings to those who have gone before me, my elders in the divine art of Sue-slaying. I come seeking wisdom and knowledge of your techniques, and an opportunity to prove myself worthy to...no? Too formal?
Frag it.
Hi, I'm Tiroth. I'm a male dragon with red scales from no fandom in particular with a tendency to incinerate things that displease me, although some of them have an annoying habit of getting up again afterwards. I think they've built up an immunity. Anyway, I bumped into the PPC during random internet browsing about a year ago and have been dipping into it since, so I figured I'd try and join in the fun. Although the idea of working for artificial lightning is a bit of a weird one, but never mind that.
I'm quite happy to get involved in quite a few different fandoms, although I'm not an obsessed-level fan of any one in particular. I *do* generally know more than most people if I'm interested, but that's not really too hard, is it? Also, is it possible to do italics/bold/etc here?
Anyways. I'll stop rambling now. So - hi! And put down the sword, my scales are better armour than that. -

have some C4 plastic explosives. they might help get rid of the things that keep getting up. you might need blasting caps to set the C4 off. fire won't work on its own. And i have a dragonlace-verse dragonmetal sword. it could cut through your scales. and anything else.

Welcome to the PPC Board. Please deposit your sanity in the provided receptacle. *provides receptacle marked "Warg Fodder"* You shan't have much need for it here. Also, here is a board with which you may hit yourself in the head. Pie Iesu Domine, dona eis Requiem... which basically translates to "Christ, give me a break!"

Welcome! Have a cup of tea. It'll cure what ails you, up to and including loss of limb.
So, have you any fandoms you pay some attention to? And are you dead set on Sues? Only we're always after new recruits for the DBS. Occupational hazards are limited - there's Lux, and prolonged exposure to the department has a detrimental effect on one's ability to comprehend heterosexuality - but it's good fun nonetheless. -

Sorry, but I'm not really a fan of slash (or, for that matter, romance fics in general). Besides, isn't Lux a general hazard of being in the PPC anyway? :P As for fandom, I read a fair bit, so I want to try and keep my Agents flexible if I can.

This one is Polish, has a random unpronounceable Polish name and is very long and very fast. Be careful not to burn his sails, he won't appreciate it (yes, this ship is a he).

@ Sedri: There's a reason for that. :P I've actually been using this name for about ten years now. Also - I like the sound of the Transdimensional Pocket Knife, but what's a Capillary Towel? O.o
@ Ugolino: And while you're using your spell, I'll just turn you into a pile of ash. Isn't fire-breath wonderful? :P
@ Chliever: I'm just not used tot he idea that daemons can be good guys. I know them too well. Also, an alternative to mumps would be nice. :P
@ Tawaki: I'm not a big fan of Doctor Who, so I was thinking of going the traditional route and taking an RC. Also - um, thanks for the plover?
@kgarrett: I don't think I've ever seen a flax before. Shiny new toy. ^_^ Things that burn are always welcome.
@ Pit Viper of Doom: Interesting screen-name you have there. :P I don't actually mind Tirry - people have been calling me that for years elsewhere (not that any of them asked permission). -

Can I call you Tirry? Just kidding. I value my non-incinerated-ness. Is that a word? Probably not.
Formality is completely unnecessary, except perhaps with Flowers. But most agents don't even use it with them. -
Well, I'm sure a dragon has no use for flaxes... by

But here's one anyway. Careful where you point it, though, flamethrower/axe hybrids are not pleasant. Anyway, welcome aboard. Hope you decide to stay, and have fun regardless of what you ultimately decide to do.

Sorry my Agents alarmed you, they're both perfectly all right.

Actually... I probably shouldn't give you the mumps. I'll be back once I find a suitable newbie present. -

Don't worry. I'm no dragon killer. At least, I'm not a killer of the un-sueified ones. Here's an ice-proof helmet from the Raven Armory, specially made for dragons. (It might be useful if you ever visit certain fandoms in the winter. Don't ask how I got it to be dragon-sized.)

Many thanks for the helmet- I can think of some uses for it already. ^_^ Dragon-sizing it must've been...difficult. O.o *ish curious*

I comes bearing links. *drags out Big Bag O' Links and digs through it*
First off is the link to the Wiki, a veritable fount of information for a newbie to read through. Especially helpful for you if you want to write missions would be the page on Permission (note the capital P).
I would advise against reading any Legendary Badfic, unless you are of strong mind and stomach. Even the summaries have been known to give those of weaker constitution nightmares.
For your reading pleasure, not knowing what you have already managed to find, I have several links for you. The Original Series (not to be confused with Star Trek) is a good place to start, as the PPC did many aeons ago.What do you mean I'm exaggerating?The Department of Geographical Aberrations is another interesting place to visit, if you have the time and inclination. Also by hS is the Tangled Webs site, which contains backstory for the PPC as an organisation. If you would rather visit the Floaters, then July's site is the place you need to be. And last, but most definitely not least, Response Centre 45 is where Trojie and Pads' missions are archived.
Hope you enjoy your stay here. Please deposit your sanity into the container offered to you by another Boarder; you won't be needing it here.
Italics, bold etc are possible here, if you know how to use HTML. Don't look to me for an explanation of how to do it though, since I've found myself to be made of fail at such things. -
Maybe I should've said how much I've read already. ^_^; by

Whoops.
I've actually read through TOS and Tangled Webs, although there might be a few things I've missed on there. I found the Wiki and Permission as well, but I don't think I've run across RC 45 or the Floaters' site before, so thanks for those. I'll have to say "humbug" to the HTML code, though, as I don't do programming of any kind. Ah, well.
Also - you think I have any sanity? I'm a full-grown dragon forced to hide from humans because I don't feel like committing genocide. You think I'm sane? :P -

how top get bold and italics in html
On the left there is a further list of html tutorials. html is not that difficult. If you can properly punctuate a sentence (and I do believe you can) you can mannage html, or at least, putting (parts of) sentences in bold or italics.
Oh, and welcome. -

HTML is pretty easy once you know the basic codes. I just really suck at explaining it.
Well, sanity can be found in the strangest of places. Mine is in the same place as Zaraki Kenpachi's, for example. :D -

It's probably in some tropical country by now. Which is fine by me, as there is such a thing as *too* hot. And I'd probably miss the rain, bizarre as that may sound. Can't say I know who Zaraki Kenpachi is, though.
I'll probably look up the HTML later. Might be useful.
