Titles are not my strong suit

[upscalerat]

Hello hello hello! I'm Rat, and I'm new to this forum! I've been telling my partner for ages how much I've missed this style of the internet, so I figured that it was high time for me to come and fix that.

While I'm new around here, I've been roleplaying on and off for, oh... Oh man, for like 12, 13 years? It's been a lot more 'off' lately (actually about two years since I've last done any!) and I would like to fix that! While I tend to be terrible at starting conversations, I'm always open to them and looking to make friends just as much as I'm looking to roleplay.

I typically prefer fantasy roleplays above all else, but I'm open to expanding my horizons. Forgive my writing if it's a bit straightforward, but I'm out of practice, even for my own stuff. So... hit me up, or don't. I look forward to chatting and roleplaying with y'all!

Thank you so much! :) I've been enjoying it so far, even if I've mostly lurked for these couple days, haha.

Welcome! I must inquire, how did you select that handle good being?

Hello and welcome to RPA, Rat!

[upscalerat]

Thank you so much, Hero!

Welcome! I must inquire, how did you select that handle good being?

And thank you too!
I've always gone by Rat online. One year, my older brother got me an xbox and either it came with a free month of online, or he also got me a subscription for online play, which required a username; it did this by auto generating a random username, and giving you a free change. The name that it generated for me was 'upscalerat2635' (or some combination of numbers) and I thought it was perfect! Used the free change to remove the numbers and it's been my handle ever since. :)

Hmm, very cool! Thanks for sharing! I like learning about names.

Welcome! Hope you have an entertaining time on the site. I'm looking forward to reading some of your RPs.

Also, I do like the story about how you got your name, sometimes randomly generated names do be the vibe.
