Welp, seeing as my first 2 threads here were begging for a gear like a shmuck, I thought it would be best to properly introduce myself to this amazing community.
First of all, my name is Isan. I'm a lonely viking out here on a small rezervation out in Western, Washington. Was adopted by a native family when I was about 6...and in feeling like a bit of an outcast here on the rez (being the only "white kid"), I developed a love for role-playing (not LARP'ing) very young out of pure necessity. Seriously though, this place is Way out there. Let's just put it this way....I have to drive 2 hours to buy socks.
I just moved back home (Neah Bay) from Seattle after finishing up my degree at the UW. I'm now one of the assistant GM's for the Makah Tribe. Like my work and happy to help my family and friends out as most people who end up getting out of here for an education never really come back.
I've always been an avid rpg'r but less so lately. Trying to get into d3 lately but just can't seem to like I did with d2. Huge fan of the Final Fantasy and Elder Scrolls franchises. As far as other hobbies are concerned I'm an amateur powerlifter and hobbyist tech-death-metal guitar player (a disgustingly expensive hobby). Love hiking and climbing as well.
And even though I'm not a Native, I'm very much into my adopted family's culture. I'm the only son still out here in Neah Bay so I do a lot of the male dances for my family (they also like that I'm 6'4" tall) like the wolf-dance and wildman....both of which are pretty badass in my opinion. Also huge on smoking/canning fish...first of all it tastes amazing, and second, it's free food that lasts for years.
attached is a picture of me playing DC and the proper beard I'm working on in honor of coming back to this great game. Just thought some peeps here may want to put a face to the name idk haha.
Cheers guys it's great to be back!
