Greetings from the Newcomer

[xudarlantern]

 Hello everyone! You can call me Lexa, I'm new to the game and this will be the first of this style roleplay I've taken part in. I've been out of the roleplay circuit for a while so I hope you guys can be patient as I work out how Dreamwidth works and get back into the swing of things.

I'll be bringing in Tomar-Re, alien-fish-man and Honor Guard Green Lantern. I look forward to playing with all of you, this seems like it will be an interesting little adventure for sure.

If anyone has any advice for newcomers (either to Outsiders or the Dreamwidth/LJ roleplay style) I'd love to hear it. PM to this account would be the most straightforward method of communication, though you can also reach me via email (talianora@gmail.com), and less reliably at Tumblr (youmissedtheinvasion) and Skype (talonteuthida).

Also I think it states on the 'Housing' page that all characters need at least one roommate? Is anyone open to having a new personality in their space, or should I just look into one of the NPC apartments?

'allo Lexa! And yeeee Green Lanterns. Because, clearly that is what Omega needs am I right?

/cough I'm Re and I play this blue robot alien from Cybertron called Arcee from the show Transformers Prime. Welcome to the game!

[xudarlantern]

Nice to meet you! I really love Transformers Prime and was really excited to see Arcee in this game. Thanks for the words of welcome, I can't wait to get started.

Hey! I'm Larissa, the headmod, and I play Wash here from the web series Red vs Blue. Welcome to the game, and to DWRP, too! The best linkdump I can think of is here; posts under the guides/advice section will probably come in really useful, but feel free to ask if you need more.

As far as Outsiders goes, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. We are working to make things more accessible all around, but if anything's ever unclear, just ask -- we don't mind at all. ♥

As a side note, your app was really solid, and I'm looking forward to seeing this alien-fish-man of yours! C:

Thanks for the links, they seem really useful and I'll be sure to look through them more thoroughly when I get the chance. If I have any specific questions I'll be sure to ask.

Thanks for the compliment on my app, too. Can't say I didn't spend a lot of time trawling through some of the other application to make sure I did a decent job, so I'm glad all the research paid off.

Hi! I'm Charlie, and I play Marco from Animorphs. I don't know anything about your character, but he seems pretty interesting and I think he'll fit right in at this setting!

We usually have a CR meme sometime in the first half of every month, so if you haven't found a roommate by the next one, you could post there and say you're looking. Otherwise, it's mostly a CR aid, so don't sweat it if you can't find someone to room with right away.

[xudarlantern]

Hi Charlie, nice to meet you. Animorphs is really nostalgic for me, so it's cool to see someone playing Marco.

Also thanks for the note on the roommate issue. I'll see how things start out and use the CR meme if need be.
