My name is Daniel.
« on: April 25, 2010, 02:02:52 AM »
My name is Daniel.
I am a regular guy, almost 22 years old. I would like to tell you my last name, but I can't. They might be listening.
And where I live? I can't tell you that either. Because if I did, then they could find me, find us, and it would all be over.
You may think I'm crazy, but the truth is that we are not alone here on Earth. There are others who inhabit this planet, undetected, unnoticed, who would be unwanted if they made their presence known. That's why I will continue to fight until they are no more. They are after you too. They could be your neighbor, your teacher, your boss, even a parent or sibling, and that's why you can't trust anyone. Nobody.
They are here. And they are...

The non-Animorphs fans.

Haha hi guys, I couldn't resist.  ;D I've been here on RAF for a little while now but I just recently discovered this section, so here I go.
I'm Daniel Plumb and I am a Physics major in college right now. I am from SoCal, born and raised there, so I might have gone to the same middle school as Jake and the others.... ;) So yeah, I love the series. It only took me forever to get all the books and finish the series. But it was so worth it and now I have had the complete collection for years now. Animorphs made reading fun for me, much in the way that Harry Potter did, except this came first obviously. Animorphs was the very first complete series that I read. To this day I don't read a whole lot, but I would definitely go back to re-read the series. I will eventually, but probably after I print out all the E-Books. I don't want to mess up my collection, I want to keep the books as nice as possible.
So, that's me when it comes to Animorphs. Glad to be here on RAF.  8)

wHELLcome, Sir!
I'm Visser 25 but call me Dameg here. Come with me, please, I have something to show you. It's here, after this door *Open a heavy door* We call them the RAFprojects. *Lead Daniel to a long and dark hallway, with many doors, some in the dark, some with light coming from the other side. Arrive near the first door* Here at your left...

- 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), Everworld (http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,331.0.html <= almost finished, it's our current priority, we need help to correct the volume #3 and check all the volumes to be sure there is no missing page) and GONE (new project?); the Everworld/Animorphs ebooks need to be cleaned a little (mistakes, missing pages, we don't know where the chapters begin and finish, etc.) so if you wanna be a correcter... call me, I head that projects.

Facing it is...

- RAFipedia: http://rafipedia.wetpaint.com/, 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);

Next it's...

- 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;

and here...

- 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.

You also have...

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

here and facing it is...

- 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;

Next door is for the special project:

- http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3738.0.html: the adventures of the RAFians;

At the end it's for the little projects:

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3810.0.html;

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3911.0.html to make the planets we hear about in Animorphs;

- the paper-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 RPG project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,4069.0.html to make a video game about Animorphs, with RPGmaker;

- the Command-line game project: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3787.0.html for another kind of video game about Animorphs;

- the http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3773.0.html where we count all the people killed by the Animorphs;

- the RAFkaraoke: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3150.0.html and http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,3635.msg245735.html#msg245735, where we make songs and sing them...

and some other projects who come and go. Please check the list: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/board,13.0.html

*Standing in front of Daniel* 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 '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. ... and if you want, you can add your age too: http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,318.0.html...
We also opened a http://animorphsforum.com/forum/index.php?board=36.0 to teach to each others our languages and other stuffs.

As you could see, the Ebooks are far to be perfect, so if you want to print them, I suggest you participate in the Ebook project ^^

Now is time for the meal. And I'll show you the last thing I had to show you: the entrance to the Yeerk Pool, directly from RAF! Here it is *Beginning to go down dark stairs. Daniel can hear a cry coming from the cave.*
Please, come. I'm sure you'd like to see our installations.
*Dameg disappears into the darkness, Daniel can follow her or not...*

Hey Daniel! Welcome to RAF! I'm glad to meet someone who embraces the sanctity of book aesthetics as much as myself! :)

"The Sanctity of Book Aesthetics" ... wasn't that a movie or something?

Haha... hey Daniel! Welcome to RAF! We're glad to have you! I loved your intro. Very clever. So, it looks to me like you'll fit right in here! This is a remarkably active community (obviously). It's amazing to me that this series is still sparking so many in-depth discussions nearly a decade after it finished.

There's a lot to RAF beyond just Animorphs, though. I'd advise exploring. If you see a discussion that interests you, jump in! We're always glad to have someone else do that! I'm sure, if you do that, you'll be addicted to RAF before you know it :P

Dameg, your post rocks. So nice to have that guide when starting out on RAF...

Marie and Abby are my wonderful RAFsisters ^_^

^^ And it gives a good reason for the new members to make an intro thread^^
