Hello everyone!
My name is Alexandra (obviously) and I'm a 22-year-old Australian Animorphs fan. I spent way too much time from the ages of 10-14 reading the series, and still have my entire collection (although it is missing several books that I never owned in the first place, sadly). Even though I haven;t read them in a while, I can still remember far too much of the series' mythology (God knows why I remember this and not my university work! ;)) and the books brought me a lot of joy and comfort in the past (as I'm sure they still would now).
My favourite characters have always been Elfangor, Loren and Tobias, and the tragedy of their story has always hit me, you know? And one of my all-time pet peeves is that they didn't even get a proper resolution. Grr! Damn lazy writing!
Anyway, I'm a big fan of over-thinking things, analysing things over and over, and fanworks of all kinds. So I'm glad to be here! ;)
Look forward to talking to you all!
~ Alexa

*Standing in front of Alex* I hope you enjoyed your visit. Oh, and I also invite you to add your species on this list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2154.0.html) 'coz everybody isn't Human here. And we like to know who is what... For example, as you'll probably see, I'm a Controller.
Now I have to go, I don't invite you for the meal, sorry. *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Alex can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Have fun!
*Alex is now alone in the hallway but can hear other people coming*

Hey there, Alexa :) I'm Ash, welcome to the forum! I look forward to reading your two-cents in the various ani-discussion threads on the board - a new, 'in-the-know' perspective is always great to read. Have fun :)

Hello, Alexandra. I am Cloaky.
It's always good to have new blood in the forum . . . er, so to speak.
-
Welcome, Alexandra! I'm sure you'll have fun on RAF.
If you remember Animorphs better than anything else, this site is for you.
I'm Horsefan, but you can call me Horse, Horsie, or Seal. I am a seal. Don't ask.
Once again, welcome to RAF!

Hey, welcome! I'm pretty sure I've seen you around. Anyway, I'm DinosaurNothlit, but most people call me Dino, DN, or occasionally Nothlit.
I've always cool to see a fellow Tobias fan. He was always my favorite character (which I think was originally just because he has a name similar to mine, and he likes dinosaurs, but now I like him because he's has such an in-depth personality), so I can definitely appreciate feeling unresolved as far as his family goes.

:welcome:
-
And an official "welcome" to you.
I've "seen" you around, but I'm glad you started an intro thread.
Great to see another OG Ani-fan!
You'll love it here.
-
Well, hi! I'm Gaz, nice to meet you!
-
Snap, I welcomed you, but never introduced myself. Although a quick glance up and to the left could suffice.
My name is Spartan 281 (Parker).
I'm also known as: Spartan, Parker, Park, rarely Shaft, and even rarer Brandon.
-
Welcome home =D
i think I forgot to introduce myself when i first came here to XD
it happens so no worries about that.
other than that make yourself comfortable and have fun =D
