120264-so-i-decided-to-put-up-some-rp-stories

== Content ==
			
Inspired by all the amazingly talented folks around me, I decided to go ahead and bite the bullet and actually put up some of the stories I've written for my human exile esper; Yakaylin Winchley, who is my main toon, and the one I have been tentatively RPing with the most. Most of the posts are little snippets and maybe even as short as just a few paragraphs underneath a screen shot, but I hope to build up to longer stories, maybe even storylines and archs in the future :P
 
The entries are not chronological, and so far there are only two (edit there are nao LOTS xD hehe!) I'm also working on a larger, more comprehensive "backstory" section, though this is still very much WIP and subject to change. They are pretty screen shot heavy, because a lot of the time I get the urge to write something based on a screenshot I've taken of a certain place or event. Also this game is so damn beautiful, I feel the need to capture it and share it with folks :)
 
I am still very new to RP, still testing the waters and experimenting with my character. I like to write, but trying to get a full backstory down seemed like this mammoth task that I was not getting anywhere with. So I decided to break it down into smaller chunks..... Basically I am trying to carve out this character, and now that she's 50 I've spent a good long time getting to know her, and I have enjoyed it thoroughly. Though she is still evolving and changing, I finally feel confident enough that I can share some of the RP that until now has mostly been in my head or buried in a word document ;)

Soooooo I've been pretty busy with RL stuff what with New Year and all, but fear not more stories are coming soon™ :)
 
But before all that, I thought you might like to see this! I was approached by the lovely IndeyExperiment who asked if he could use one of my stories for a new segment on his YT channel called "Storytime". I was dead chuffed and I think it turned out awesome, and yeh Kaylin's getting a big ego from bein' all famous 'n that now ;)
 
This is him with a reading of a little scrappy story called "Nexus rising".

But for reals, check it out, I think it's bloomin' marvelous and urge anyone else with any kind of RP literary ramblings to get in touch with him TO SPREAD THE NEXUS LOVE <3

I'm so happy with how it turned out as i've wanted to do this feature for a long time. and several takes later i got the video you guys get to see and was very happy but very nervous about it. so hearing people are enjoying it is fantastic!
 
My ego may be following suit of Kaylins ^^

SOOOO over January, as well as working on some stories (which seem to be getting longer and more complex every time I sit down to write ;... ;), there's an awesome RP prompt tag from the Nexus RP Hub  going round on tumblr for "Wildstar Diversity Appreciation Month" (or #WSDAM) there's some awesome stuff on the tag, all about people exploring their characters, and what makes them "diverse". So it's not just things like sexuality, gender expression, it's also mental health, physical ability, hobbies, personality quirks, social life, political views, body shape etc. #
 
here's the post: 
{| class="blockquote"
 
I want to appreciate character diversity with you all! Our community is rich with character backgrounds, head cannons, cannons and stories to be explored. This month is to sort of show case it and allow everyone to really think, write, or draw about their characters in that light. Even if you don’t roleplay, surely you have some ideas what your character in game must be like! I want to see it all! 
Lets do this to start off the New Year~ January 2015! Tag it a #WSDAM for me (Horus Schronoff) to find it easily! 
I will be posting prompts one at a time here on NexusRPHub for inspiration throughout the month. 
What this is about:
Exploring characters on a deeper level.
Sharing our characters and what they mean to us.
Normalizing things that are wrongfully socially taboo.
Creating an environment that is for us!
Exposing knowledge, which is the key to tolerance.
To gain new perspective on the lives of others around us all.
To overcome ignorance and prejudice.
Diversity is our strength as creative beings. 
What this is NOT about:
Fetishism 
Slamming of other peoples characters
Disrespectful representation of minorities of any types
Not only limited to LGBTQA+ spectrum (body diversity, ect is allowed!)
Lets have fun with this in January! I look forward to all the art, character posts, screen shots, housing, and or even RP chat logs- whatever you want to help celebrate this month with your characters!

Welp, after an epic day of procrastination (most of which was spent watching old jackass episodes and eating banana porridge :3) I present the first part of my first ever attempt at a longer, episodic style "backstory" story arc for this character. 
 
{| class="blockquote"
 
OOC: So, I’ve finally finished on the first part of a longer story I’ve been working on.These longer stories are different to the shorter snippets I have written so far;  My aim is to ultimately create several episodes that will come together to form a complete backstory and explain Kaylin’s origins and her past. I am calling this particular “episode” of her backstory “Frozen Nightmares”, and each post that pertains to this episode will be tagged as such to help me try and organise myself in the future!
As a note on timeline; this is part of Kaylin’s backstory and so takes place before she joined the Black Dagger Society, before she became a *proper* esper with real control and understanding over her powers. It happens after she leaves Algoroc, so about 3 months after she first landed on Nexus. 
I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it :)
CREDITS: Shout out to Hoogle Karamazov, a guildie and friend who helped me out a lot with brainstorming and being my own private echo-chamber while I smoothed out the details ;)
Here goes!….

Hellloooo! It has been a while on the updates! sorry for that. the WSDAM stuff kept me super busy - I went on holiday for the last few days so I need to finish that next week *adds to pile of writing xDD*
 
I am still working on Kaylin's stuff (actually writing up the guild storyline in which she is playing a not-insignificant part of which is taking me a while cos URGE default chat logs are WANG when the scene involves combat -.-) so keep an eye peeled for new stories and excitement ^.^
 
However I thought I'd also like to promote another blog for some new characters of mine: http://yakiavelli-sisters.tumblr.com/ - very much WIP and I'll be introducing them properly soon but yeh! :) an IC blog of two granok sisters, kicking ass and taking names and generally struggling with being sisters :P It is very WIP but open for asks and questions, and I find those a really helpful way to develop a character so yes :) <3
 
LOVINS
