Good evening, sleepy friends to be; unless, of course, it isn't evening where you live in which case I'm sorry for being presumptuous - though only a little.
I'm a rather barmy old goat. Having noticed a stifling lack of old men (to my knowledge), I decided to appl- What? That sounds far too simple? Well, actually, it's more complex then that. Type-Moon was really what got me into Visual Novels, so long ago that it isn't even funny. I fell in love with the writing, Nasu's distinct style (seafood dinners and all) and ended up becoming something of a connoisseur (that is to say - a hack).
Having looked the site over, I'm rather interested in seeing if I couldn't play a 'bystander' character, perhaps to kick up ways to interact beyond the usual Grail War shenanigans. I'd hope to live for awhile, but if my character happens to die in the name of providing some entertainment value, I shall consider it a worthy cause.
What hooked me was the idea of literate RP, and play-by-post; both things I haven't done in ages and have really been craving. I'm hoping I'll be able to integrate seamlessly into Nuovo Guerra, and look forward to meeting (and roleplaying!) with all of you!

Hello and welcome, barmy old goat! ... What does "barmy" mean? OH, WELL!
There are plenty of people here who share the interest in that world and all the interesting roleplaying that may result from it! If you spend enough time, I'm sure you'll find us a friendly bunch to be reckoned with on the field of just plain being together with people of similar values! We very often chat in the OOC box, so feel free to visit us there and have a conversation or so~
Also, do make sure to read the rules and a little such things, just to avoid making fools out of ourselves (which always happens anyways). Also, I apologize for the fact so many of us have so many different faces and names that we tend to act out in the box and other places. That's what happens when one needs to get a new account for each character~! Though that makes it so easy to find everything related to that character, so~!
Once again, welcome! If you ever have any questions, you can always ask the moderators or just ask a normal member~! We'll be happy to help~! Good luck achieving the goals you set for yourself on this site~! See you out there~!

Barmy means... Uh, actually, I've got no clue. I always assumed it meant crazy, but now that I think about it, I've heard it used positively, too. Anyway! I read the rules cunningly before I signed up (though, knowing me, I'll probably forget most of them... Especially the ones regarding the chatbox, as the idea of one is kind of confusing to me for whatever reason). I'll definitely join in the chatbox, although I'm still gonna finish up a profile first.
Anyway, don't worry about confusing me! I'm naturally confused, ahahaha!... Wait, I guess that's not exactly something to be proud of... Well. I actually prepared in advance, which is why this is the name and gender of my character. I was gonna go hardcore and change the birthday too, but... Eh, that seemed a little extreme, and more like a sign that I should get some sleep at some point. I still haven't found any good face claims, so please patiently wait through the strangely transcendent looking gray fellow!
Thank you very much for the awesome welcome, and I'm sure I'll see you both on the chatbox and around the site! Don't hesitate to tell me if I'm doing something stupid/wrong/barmily (aha! It's apparently eccentric! Or full of foam, but I'm going to go with the former), and I'll fix it up like that!
