10:23pm: Reincarnate Games: Part 1!
There is too much to say about the reincarnate games, so before I try to tackle those memories, I'm going to start with the list of characters that I remember playing. THEY WERE NOT ALL SIMULTANEOUSLY! Some were dropped to make room for others. There will still far more than might be sane to play at once.

2:58pm: EXEGESIS - and other X-Men Universe Games
EXEGESIS was my first big journal based game. My X-Men canon is largely based on RANDOM COMICS, all of the cartoon, and reading most of the encyclopaedia-- the giant tomes, and the internet databases. This is why I've mostly stuck to characters that had limited canon to learn. This did lead to me snatching up the Madrox mini-series and falling in love with Jamie Madrox forever.

2:45pm: A Decade of RP-ING
There is no way I can possibly remember all of the details for every character I've RP-ed. I started to get seriously into journal based RPGs around 2004. Before that, I'd started out like many wee tadpoles---in the shame that was AOL chatrooms, upon my early discovery of WHAT IS THE INTERNET? During my senior year in highschool, a few months after turning 18, an old RPG friend asked me to join an X-Men based game over on greatestjournal. This was was my first introduction to many people that I would play with over the course of the following 5 years.

Since IJ is now in the process of eating stagnant journals I figured I would attempt to make a record of the characters I've played. During my freshman and sophomore year of college I was somehow able to juggle 40 characters at once, so this list is cracktastic-ly long. Some characters I remember more vividly than others. Some characters had very brief playing lives.

Bear with me as I try figure out how to organize this!

8:32pm: Top 10 Banners (Retired Characters)
What makes these banners the top ten? Its not just my love for the characters, because while Hunter Locke from Phoenix Effect may be one of my most loved muses of all times, his banner is kind of lame. The saturation isn’t right and the lyrics are weak. Here’s the criteria for top ten status:

How well the PB’s expression/position suit the character?
How well do the lyrics fit and represent them?
Does the background enhance the image?

..and the winners are... )
