First, I wanna say it's good to see a new goth, new drawer and new English here Your drawings are very cool, and I hope you'll join http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/board,26.0.html Project!

About the projects, I have to tell you (because I'm the guide of the RAFprojects ) about them:

- The Ebooks project: [Help wanted!] Animorphs (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=14.0), Remnants (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,157.0.html <= finished) and Everworld (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html); we need somebody to scan the volume #10 of Everworld, and the other Everworld/Animorphs ebooks need to be cleaned a little (mistakes, we don't know where the chapters begin and finish, etc.) so if you wanna be a correcter... call me, I head that projects.

- RAFipedia: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=22.0, an encyclopedia headed up by Estelore, our star (a true star, who make light and burn in space... but she has a body to come on Earth);

- the Audiobooks project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=15.0, a full-cast audio version of Animorphs who need more "actors" and voices, headed by Kit Cloudkicker (Jess), MrGuy, Morfowt, and Wildweathel;

- the Translation project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html, a recently started project/mutual support group for translations into other languages; currently only in French (Tocade, Anidragon and myself), Chinese (Morfowt), Indonesian (Nat), Swedish (Mira and Zana), and Esperanto (Wildweathel); we translate only the volumes never edited in our countries/languages, to make the ebooks;

- the Graphic Novel project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,416.0.html and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2276.0.html, a Webcomic headed by Gafrash.

- the RPG project: a role-playing game (on table, with paper, pen and dices...) about the World of Animorphs; I head this project, and it'll be write in French at the beginning, but we need help to find, class and write everything we know about the species, the planets, the powers we see in Animorphs, fix them, see what we keep and what we can't keep (because of the KASU, not clear, exception for the main characters/books, etc.), complete the knowledges about species/planets we know and even create new species/planets...; this project will be on my own website, so if you wanna join, ask me the link ^^ ;

- the Smiley project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,1691.0.html, we make Animated gifs, smileys about Animorphs (Andalites, Hork-Bajirs...);

- the RAFkaraoke: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3150.0.html, where we make songs and sing them... It's pretty new... But please sing with us!

I also invite you to add your species on this list: 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.

My heroes are Anton LaVey

It's really rare to hear that ^^ And I can't stop myself to ask you if you're satanist or if you follow some satanist's precept. Of course I'm talking about LaVey's satanism, totally different to the sect where people revere Satan etc. etc. (I say for the few RAFians who are still shocked by some things... they're really few ^^')

At least, YOU won't be shocked by my amazingly cute avatar ^^ Gloomy Bear rules!!!!

[Thea]

Holy hell, wHELLcome is possibly the best greeting I've ever heard, thank you! Firstly, I gonna read that list but yer going to have to give me a few hours to do so, haha, is intense!

Aye, Satanist here. Been one for yonks. I am still reluctant to say it out loud because, as you said, 98% of the population don't know the difference between a Satanist and a Devil worshipper. As in, we know the devil doesn't actually exist, nor do we kill cats or people and every time I read a newsarticle stating 'Young boy killed in Satanist ritual' I start to go purple and *POPS*

Ahem. Are you one too? Be nice to find one who appreciates Animorphs aswell, that's unique, haha.

Sadly I have not heard of Gloomy Bear. I am willing to be regarded as a failure for this. However, I gonna look into him now!

[Dameg]

Haha ^^ Don't worry, take your time. You're already one of the few new members who answer to my welcome message ^^' I'm not even sure 50% of them read it and go to check the projects. So I'm already happy you do it ^^

I usually say I'm atheist, not satanist. But if you prefer, I'm an half-satanist ^^ I just don't really care now.
Don't worry, you're under my protection ^^ Nobody would attack Esplin's (future)wife's protégé ^^ (about it, come to our marriage, please: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2438.0.html (it'll be this WE, I hope))

Don't worry about Gloomy Bear, it's just a Japanese fashion bloody "teddy" bear... ^^

Have fun on RAF!!!

PS: If you like video games (and particularly survival horror), you'll be my RAFlittle-sister ^^

[Thea]

I am a massive fan of computer games, though I tend to do more fantasy and anthro. I got one sort of survival Horror, it's called Project Zero and it once frightened me so badly that I swore, jumped, turned it off and shoved it under the bed where it remained for six months.

Japanese horror. Scares. Me.

Meep

[Dameg]

Hahaha Project Zero is awesome!!! ^^ (for American RAFians: Project Zero = European name of Fatal Frame)
OK, I've decided, you're my RAFsister now ^^
I also like FF and some other RPG games. In fact, take a look at this: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,2997.msg272468.html#msg272468
I'm totally addicted to video games... I'd need a cure ^^' But I don't care! I love survival horrors, and I can help you to find some less-scary games, if you want. I also know some who are half RPG half survival horror, or "horror RPG" (don't know how to call them...).

[Thea]

Whoo! Also your survival horror list is almost as big as my entire range of computer games. Although I did recently get addicted to buying old catridges for the old Game Boy and playing them until I fell asleep. Mario and Yoshi is my drug.

I always wanted to play the Suffering, mainly because of the stupid news articles about it (boy plays it, goes out kills people, naturally it's the game's fault). Abe's Oddysey! Exoddus! I used to line up all the Mudokuns in a row, then kill one of them to make the rest depressed. Then I would smack each one of them and then watch them smack them in the head until they all died. Alternatively, I'd smack one, he'd turn round and smack the other, then the other, then..smack smack smack. Then sometimes I'd possess a slig and beat the liddle mudokuns. Sometimes I'd fart right next to the slaves so they moved away, and sometimes I'd activate the invincibility cheat and let the fleeches slap me with their tongues over and over but getting no meal.

Sometimes I'd actually play the game properly.

I did all those FF games, I fell ridulously in love with Kimahri and bought a massive anthro statue of him. X is da favourite. Though I want to put Wakka in a blender. Ya? Although the fight gameplay on XII was kinda fun. Good for the lazies

[Dameg]

lol You had fun with Abe's games ^^ Those games are amazing, very funny, and it's sad they don't make more games like that.

About FF, VII & VIII & X are my favorite. I also love the intro music of FFVI!!! >_< Can't stop listening to it! Maybe it's why I began the game again and again and never go far lol
You really loved Kimahri? Funny ^^' My favorite was Rikku, in FFX.
Final Fantasy and Shadow Hearts are my favorite RPG series. Shadow Hearts is the one I called a "Horror RPG". There are 3 games, they're amazing, but... rare now ^^' You can't have them easily and for a good price now, unless you're very lucky! Another who is half-RPG-half-survival-horror is Parasite Eve. You can find the 1st game in emulation, 'coz it was on console only in Japan, but the 2nd one is on PSX. About the less scary survival horror: Silent Hill 2 (it isn't really scary 'coz the monsters are usually easy to kill, except the boss like pyramid-head), Aloe in the Dark 1 (the oldest not scary at all), Resident Evil (all of them, it's surprising, but not really scary), Rule of Rose (the monsters are little children... it must be OK ^^), and maybe also Obscure ('coz you can play with a friend, so you're 2 to fight the zombies... must help you too ^^). You also may like Primal, it isn't a survival horror, but it's funny AND goth (the main characters are a gargoyle and a goth girl!)
My problem with Project Zero (you can see I didn't finish any of them) isn't that I'm scary, but that I ALWAYS loose my way in the houses!! After a while, I just don't remember where I come from and where I go, what I should do and what I already did!! >_<

And cue the other Raven Lover!
Hi, I'm Broken, or Cody.

Damn, I used to have the best Avvy/Sig that was Raven/Poe themed!

But, I quite like the one I have now, too.

Anywho,
Welcome to RAF, Sanity Free since 2007! (We had one guy try to sneak it in... Do you have any idea how long we scrubbed that Seal?!)

It's great to meet another Poe fan!
I'm obsessed with The Raven, and all things Poe.

How long've you been a fan?


Great to meet you,

Broken Nevermore.

P.S,

I Love the spelling of Raevyn!

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

Thanks!  *takes the green bottle containing Raevyn's sanity, and tosses it down incinerator chute*  hahahaha...another one bites the dust.

[esplin]

Theres no turning back now?

[Horsefan1023 (Seal)]

Well, I can use SanityReincarnator5 000, but I only do that if taking a person's sanity makes them a phsyco killer, like Damien.

'lo there, nice to meet you too. I can't remember when I started fangirling Poe, I sorta just realised ages ago that we're really similar. We go through lots of the same things, hah. Um, except Tuberculosis, but other than that..So I went and read all his works and decided that I wanted to marry him. Every time it's his birthday I run around declaring 'Happy Birthday Poe!' and did it extra loud on his last one, which was his 200th. God bless the manic depressive anxious tortured generally doomed sod. Love 'im.

Which is your favourite story? I'm a fan of The Premature Burial, because it's just sheer horror. Really, it's so horrible. I get ticked off that The Fall of the House of Usher is widely considered to be his best and most famous work, I thought it was kinda lame compared to a lot of the other ones.

I recently read his biography, just been published, you seen it? Sadly I can't go and look up the title because I recently took off from home and had to leave all my books behind, but it's, ah, white. It's pretty good. Goes into great detail from cradle to grave. Speaking of, how do you think he died? There's so much confusion and sometimes conspiracy about that, did he kill himself, did he overdose, was it consumption, did someone he owed gambling money to off him..all that stuff. Personally I'm convinced that he killed himself, I believe it to be impossible to have such a mind and demeanor and life as him and to not! Prolonged severe depression, alcohol abuse, father issues,  being a failed author until the very last second of his life, all the women he loved died, overwhelming anxiety and neuroses, and above all, the most dark, depressing, horrific, psychologically deviant literature ever written. And it was so much easier to get ahold of various barbituates and general drugs in those days. his entire life sort of led up to it, the way I see it. Ah well that's my conspiracy, hah, what's yours?

[esplin]

Personally i love the fall of the house of usher, but id say the black cat is my favorite.  Im a huge fan of poe too!

[Azguard]

have you noticed how crazy everyone here is yet?
