Greetings All
Hello,
Well, it seems that my quest to find a somewhat decent role-playing community has finally come to an end after quite a bit of searching. In my wanderings I stumbled across this here site, and, beautiful graphics aside, I found myself being drawn into what seemed to be a strong and highly literate group of writers... Here's to hoping that my initial impression wasn't wrong.
As for myself, my name is Cal, or Erebus as I would like to be known on this forum. I've drifted between a variety of roleplays of all shapes and sizes for the last 3 or 4 years with varying degrees of success, mostly participating in Fantasy and Anime or Manga settings. I'm 18, a Pisces (I do so love Star Signs) and like to consider myself to be a decent writer, though that is solely my own opinion.
Anyway, I'm going to head off and continue reading through the tonnes of posts and information here! Hopefully I'll get to know you all better soon.

Re: Greetings All
I'm a Scorpio, and Year of the Dragon.
Welcome to the FOG, Erebus!
I was fortunate enough to have this site come to me, as it were, when I was over on Gaia. I, too, was drawn at first a little by the graphics and professional look, but it was when I went into the role-play forums and saw the walls of text that I felt like I'd finally found The Place. xD
Love to RP with ya sometime! If you have any questions, just ask. You'll likely get at least four people bursting to deliver the answer first. ^^

Re: Greetings All
Thanks for the welcome everybody.
I'm hoping to join a roleplay sometime soon, so if anyone is looking for players please feel free to give me some links - it would be much appreciated! I already looked through all the places you said Bird of Hermes, so I hope thats a good start.
Looking forwards to RPing with you, and I might even share some of my artwork, rather pathetic attempts at photo manipulation that they are...

Re: Greetings All
Weeeeelll, SINCE you asked... ^^
If you like super-deep settings and a not-too-grueling pace, with lots of literacy, you might enjoy Sephiris: The Price of Peace, which I've been hosting in the Advanced Role-Play section.
It's been going slow recently because of certain major RP projects throughout FOG, but that only means it'll be a perfect time to insert yourself into the story. xD

Re: Greetings All
Greetings, Erebus, and welcome to Footsteps of Ghosts! As Sunwolf stated above, you've come to the right place if you're looking for a community of literate writers! From what I can tell, you seem to be a very well-composed young man, so I'm looking forward to seeing your writing style in action.
Hermes already posted links to the most helpful sections of the forum, so I'll simply remind you that the moderators and I are always here to help, so feel free to come to us if there's anything you need.
Oh, and for the record, I happen to be a proud Aries, born in the Year of the Tiger. So, that basically makes me a Tigeram! Those are quite dangerous you know, so you should certainly behave lest you wake the beast!
I kid...
Anyway, enjoy your stay here! Be sure to check out the IRC chat by following the link at the top of the page. It's often dead, but just as often lively, and it's a great way to meet some of the more active members.
See you around!

Thanks for the link, it definitely seems to be along the lines of what I was looking for. I had a bit of a read through the actual setting itself and it seems to be very detailed and quite deep as you said. Once I'm done reading everything I'll post a character for you in the Out of Character thread, if that's okay with you?

Re: Greetings All
Welcome to FOG, Erebus! You are definitely in the right place for good quality role-plays. I know my search came to an end as soon as I joined here, and it just keeps getting better! Sounds like you're already getting plugged into a good RP with Kalon, so I hope you keep enjoying yourself!

Re: Greetings All
Welcome to FoG, Erebus.
It's good to see another friendly face, and I'm certain Kalon is thrilled that someone new actually wanted to join his role play. It seems like that role play has been alive forever. heheh
I love astrology though I'm not as into it now as I once was, so I've forgotten many things. I'm a cusp of Scorpio and of Sagittarius though I often feel more connected to Scorpio descriptions. Of course, I do have my Sagittarius tendencies. They seem like such a strange combination, but somehow they work... or perhaps they don't?
I hope you enjoy your stay. ^^_^^

Re: Greetings All
Capricorn represent! I believe I was born in the Year of the Monkey... much to my dismay. I would have loved to be born in the Year of the Dragon.
I'm extremely happy to hear that you've already jumped aboard Kalon's roleplay! I'm sure you won't be disappointed. He's quite a lovely fellow and Sephiris: The Price of Peace has even earned itself a place in the monthly features before too. It's a wonderful place to start!
Oh, I haven't even welcomed you yet.
Welcome to FoG, Erebus! I truly do hope that your search ends here. We're not a bad bunch of people... although Kalon bites... oh and Weiss shamelessly advertises the chat room... gee, I suppose we do have have ourselves a bit of a problem!
But in all seriousness, you shouldn't have any troubles here. I hope you enjoy your stay with us!

Re: Greetings All
Thanks everyone for the welcome, it's much appreciated. I really do hope that I can stay here for a good while longer, it definitely seems to be what I was after.
Kalon - I've spent the last few days reading through your role play and going over everything so that I'm familiar with it. I must say, it is very well done and definitely something I would be interested in joining. I have PM'ed you a character for you to critique and approve before I go and post it in the OOC thread.
