Let's see... it's been a long time, but I guess my first foray into roleplaying was fanfiction, if you want to count that. Before I had a computer I kept a journal and wrote stuff. When I first started, my love was the Space Jam universe, so that's what, 20 years ago? Shit, I'm old. Coincidentally, that's when I also took up drawing. It was the beginning of a real shitty time in my life and writing and drawing was a great escape for me.
I got my first computer when I was like, 15/16, so around 2000/2001. It was a shitty Acer, 2gb hard drive and windows 95. At that time, AOL was huge, so that's what we had for a few months (because $24 a month on a fixed income was insane, and I didn't have a job, also the computer broke not long after). I did a lot of roleplaying in AOL chat rooms (not really sexy time roleplaying, but a bunch of nerds doing on the fly space type roleplaying. It was pretty cool. I eventually came across another computer and started getting into coding and found my first pbp roleplaying site. I eventually became admin after the original admin kinda disappeared. It was a shitty RP site and went down quick, but I played Pan there. I branched off and made my own RPG on proboards that only had a few players, and that did get a bit "mature". I met a cool guy named Ren who played the Tien to my Launch.
After that failed, life happened and I just didn't have a computer for a while, so it wasn't until about 2005 that I got onto my step mom's computer and went back to roleplaying in AOL chat rooms, then eventually stumbled my way onto Chubbs December 2005 (signed up officially on January 1, 2006) and since Pan was taken, I took Violet. I experimented with Kazuya and Kayne (one was an old world Japanese warrior, the other a space pirate). I did FoF as Zabuza and Anita Blake for a very brief time. I can't remember who I was on AD. The thing is, I started writing as Violet and she became a way for me to escape life when it was getting REALLY shitty. I fell in love with this story that was being told, and she became mine. Everything and everyone else I played just wasn't the same, and I couldn't capture that same excitement I got when I wrote as her. I guess, in a way, she's my Mary Sue.
When I came to Omniverse, I started as Garona Halforcen. I liked her, I still like her, and still feel I have a story to tell for her, but I haven't really found quite what I want with her yet. I switched to Violet to continue her story (albeit in a bit of a different direction...I would have revived some of her former associates, but I am keeping a promise to a friend to keep that particular part in the past , although there is still room for another eventually...>.>). And then I'm here in all my friggin nerdy old glory. I love this community, both the old people that I've known for the past ten years, and the new ones that I've met since joining, and my occasional drop ins when I'm feeling social. love you sexy bitches.
