About Ganymede:

Ganymede isn't some all powerful wizard or bounty hunter, or vampire slayer. He isn't really a character at all. He is me, the person behind the computer screen, just in a different body. He will act as I would act, because we are the same person. Who am I? Well, you'll just have to figure that out for yourself. But I'll give some hints.

Personality

Probably one of the most important features of a person. What can I say about myself? Well despite coming here with the intention to chat and rp, I'm not the most social person around. I'm usually found sitting around friends and just listening idly in the background. I guess I can be described as a lurker. Listening in and commenting every so often. Not to say that I can't hold a conversation, but I kind of find it hard to be interested in well...topics that don't interest me. The idle chit chat about how you brush your teeth, or what you had for lunch that morning is nice and all, but I kind of have a slippery mind. This kind of anti-social attitude can lead to some awkward moments. At which time I often try to break the tension with some corny joke. Try not to view me as TOO dorky. Well what am I doing while I'm lurking? Usually browsing the web, gaming, listening and singing along to my favorite songs. I would go into more detail but I've already told you enough as it is. If you want to learn more I guess you'll just have to talk to me :3

Appearance

Well lets start with the body. Ganymede, is either white and covered in black stripes or black and covered in white stripes. You pick, you get the idea. He has a pretty average build overall. Being at 5'11, he isn't the tallest of people, but also not too short. He really can't escape having an average body. His attire is usually littered with black. Black shirts, shoes, pants. Most with no particular sign. He just has always been attracted to the color. Why? Well you didn't think it would be that easy did you? Again, spark up a conversation about it if you like. If you see him in the room, he is usually wearing a plain black t-shirt, black jeans or cargo pants, and either a pair of black shoes or boots. Sometimes he wears a matching hoodie, or even a trench coat depending on his mood. If you want to know what he is currently wearing, just ask and I'll either tell you OOC or include the description of his attire in my next post.

Sexuality

Ganymede is very sexual, well sexually open. He hasn't had too much personal experience with the subject, and even then it was....well he just doesn't have much experience. But coming to a place like this, he is willing and open to try new things. He is very tolerant of other's peoples kinks. He takes the phrase, "to each his own" very seriously. But when it comes down to sex, he considers himself heterosexual. He has been know to flirt with other men, even kiss, snuggle, and hug them. But when it comes down to sex, he just has never been very interested in other men. He enjoys the ladies, and hasn't been given a reason to change that.

Ganymede and rping

I have been around for a while and enjoy the occasional rp. Most have been sexual in nature but I have participated in some entertaining non-sexual rp. It depends on my mood. Usually just approaching me in public will guarantee at least some response. I'm not nearly as approachable in whispers. I will greet you and such. But I'm not a big fan of the whisper rp's. I do prefer public, unless the rp is taking place outside of the particular chat room. As for non-rp posts, like just talking or goofing off, please do. I always enjoy an interesting and casual conversation. Now-a-days my time is spent talking about random things much more than actually rping.

Some interesting facts.

-Hyenas genetically are more closely related to cats. But have more canine-like habits and behaviors. But they are neither canine nor feline. They exist in their own family called hyaenidae. Though apparently "the hyaenidae" is how you refer to a group, and not an individual. So when referring to myself I'll probably just be using "the hyena" as the descriptor. I'll accept either hyena or hyaenidae as a descriptor however.

Do's and Don't

Do: Spark up a conversation with me. I may have called myself anti-social, but I like actually having a conversation. It's the, finding the conversation part, that is the most difficult.

Do: Spark up a rp in public. If you want to snuggle, hug, play pool, or even do something a little more adult in public, then please do. I may not always be in the mood, or be available, but I will make sure to tell you. Generally, I respond very well to being approached with a public rp.

Do: Use proper grammar. And by that I mean, capitalize, punctuate, ect. Typos and misspellings are fine but the love of god, "u" and "r" are not words.

Do: Greet me. Something I try to do is greet people, acknowledge their existence. Even a small wave if nice. I find that receiving a hello or wave as you enter the room just feels nice. Nice to know someone bothered to type out the word for you. It's a small gesture, but one I appreciate and try to do for others.

Do: Feel free to challenge me on anything I say. If you disagree, shout it out. I'm always up for a good argument. Well this rule applies mostly to sites other then SF for various reasons. If we are say, in the NAE, call me out on something you disagree with, don't be afraid to argue with me. I will find you a lot more interesting then if you just roll back and simply accept everything I say.

Don't: Post some huge wall to me in whispers, or whisper any rp post to me without talking to me OOC first. It would really save a lot of time. I really don't like whisper rping, and will only do it for very special people. If we aren't good friends, which probably means we haven't met, assume you aren't one of those special people and just whisper me OOC to see if I'm even interested.

Don't: Publicly insult, berate, demean me without provocation. If you have a problem with me, have the decency to bring it up with me in private, or worst case scenario, ignore me. I'm assuming we are all adults, act like it. I don't think that is too much to ask. I will show you the same respect. And feel free to call me out on any less then stellar behavior. I know I am human, I get angry and say and do some crappy things. Do me a favor, and don't let it slide.
