So, I've take it you've gotten curious enough to want to know a bit about me. Well, Since I keep myself well hidden, you're just going to get to know general facts about moi.
Currently I'm located in Washington not too far from Seattle in a two-story house which has a fair sized front and back yard. Unfortunately, it's kinda in the middle of nowhere; like most places.
What do I do with all the time I have that I'm not online? Well, I play three instruments: flute, hog-nosed (or plucked) psaltry, and piano. I sort of play ocarina, and 6 hole flute. I also look for and have a couple art collection books. (They're not books on art collecting. They're books with collections of art in them). Usually those circle around fantasy/sci-fi artists and I'm begining to take interest in some victorian artists as well as a few others who've done art with the middle ages as a subject. That also brings in a couple more interests I have: medieval and renaissance period, alchemy (sort of), occult, metaphysics, aromatherapy, a bit of herbalism, old world religions, gods/goddesses, and the like. I read fantasy, fantasy horror, stuff on historical socities (such as the Rom and Egyptians) and gothic horror stories, novels, and all that. Currently now, I'm going through stuff by Lovecraft, Poe, and Robert Jordan, historical stuffies, and the random things I pick up here and there like Edward Gorey. Other stuff like graphic novels, going through Sandman and hunting around for pieces of Death and Books of Magic and Johnny the Homicidal Maniac. That's not Lady Death, by the way! No, not she whose breasts grow larger with each issue...My music interests go from metal, alternative, goth, some techno, new age and some classical. This excludes country, hip hop, most rap ('cept for abouta .02%). Yes, a wide range and classical cause I play piano, psaltry, and flute, so I'm hearing it anyways and plus I find there's nifty songs there too.
The closer details and what do I look like? Well, I'm female. On a rough description, I'm about 5'3" I'm not sure. Haven't taken note of anything lately. I have brown eyes and my hair is currently mostly black with the end half of it being auburn fading to blonde (looks kinda neat when I wear black velvet). My natural colour is a blackish auburn with some white hairs that've been showing up now and then since the 6th grade. Hmm. How do I dress? Well, my favourite outfit consists of a full length chemise, a floor length or close to floor length broomstick (or crinkle) skirt, and my cream coloured, foofy shawl. With that and the amount of jewelry I usually am wearing, I end up looking somewhat like one of the Aiel Wise Ones. Just a thought to you WoT fans there.
In the future, I suppose I'd like to make an attempt to teach myself hammered dulcimer if I have the time and money. For a job, I'm going to find one that'll be all play and little work. Well, in my opinion. So, most likely that'll be art/design/computer related. Then, forever as I still am now, I'm coming up with little craft and sewing projects for me to do. Recently I made myself a bracelet which turned out pretty well considering I had little idea what I was doing to begin with except how I was going to get to the end piece.
When I have plenty of time, sometimes I'll go back to my old haunts in the role plying chats and do some role playing. Freestyle, of course. However, as I sit and edit this (11/12/00) I don't think I'll really end up going back unless I'm desperate for something to do.
Anyone still want to gibber and rant at me one on one anyways? Here's my ICQ number if anyone wants to talk: 14636891. First off, if you're going to shriek some redundant piece of crap at me that is going to be considered spam, hate mail, junk heap, shit pile, then, don't even bother. It's just going to get deleted without a second thought. I've had it all before and you're just going to waste your time just to put yourself into a compilation of shit. So, anything else, casual small talk, blah, blah, blah, that's acceptable. Thank ye, and I shall be around. And to you, I, Draco/Corvus/Nyx/Misery (whatever anyone knows me as if you've known me before), bid you a farewell for now.

Something I can't, but wished I could do (and do well): levitate, electrokinesis, hydrokinesis, pyrokinesis, glass blowing, stained glass, and metal sculpture, make musical instruments out of interesting materials.
Stuff I like to watch: various animes (Pokemon, Vampire Princess Miyu, Vampire Hunter D (cheap humour. dunno why), Iria, and some others), vamp. related stuff, occult realated stuff (even if it's cheap and cheesy and the makers obviously don't know what they're talking about and are ignorant as hell), and anything else that catches my interest. That's not a lot so don't wonder why I don't watch a lot of TV.
Would you like to hear something I've gibbered? Go here. If you don't know what I'm saying, it's "Ha! Statement. My point." It's sort of an inside joke. My friend and I play a game called Questions from the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. It's supposed to be played on a tennis court and scored like tennis. The rules roughly say that you ask questions back and forth, no religious questions, non-sequiters, repetitions, and no statements! I think there's more, but I don't remember. So, live with that much.
Notes: the phrase I used for my logo for this page, "Draco as herself..." when I came up with it, I just thought it sounded nifty. But thinking back on it, it now looks like a screenshot from movie credits. It's just that oddly enough, it fits perfectly!!!
Well, I have MORE to tell!!!! So, something else that I do on my weekends! Alright, some of you out there may know about this already...you know who you are!!! On a weekend basis, there are events held at various locations. These are SCA events. I don't attend all but some.
SCA stands for the Society for Creative Anachronism. It's a international wide group of people that do renaissance reenactments. It's rather fun and you pick up a bit of knowledge here and there so it's no loss to some education (though, a hint, do your own research and read lots, shut off the tv, you'll learn more with books, or other accurate texts). Below are a couple sites. Go take a look!

Ok, kidlings, here's a checklist for you scadians out there, of stuff to bring. There's some blank lines to add whatever you want. This list is free for you to use and pass around to other people. I've kept it rather generic though most things were placed there with the members of House Havenwood (aka Herald's Pointe sometimes) in mind.
So, I sign off here...
