Oh hai. I'm Bird. And as the subject line says, I've heard you all like original characters. Which is good, because I like original characters too. (Other interests include history, parenthetical statements, and footnotes.)

So I guess I should get to introducing the bloke, since it's not like you have any canon to refer to about him.

This is Will Metzger, and let's see what's pertinent about him. American¹ soldier from WWII (parachute infantry because I can and also jumping out of airplanes sounds fun), fairly religious by which I mean definitely conservative Christian (and no, his beliefs do not reflect my own, I just love socio-political issues), and the pragmatic, repressed type. He is also a dreadful fidget unless it would get him killed. For more detailed information I guess you can read his app here, if you want.

He's definitely not going to approve of the lack of a chain of command, will probably boggle at younger children being here, and I think the aliens and mages and such will just blow his mind.

On that note, I can be found on plurk (which is really your best bet aside from PMing this account) at preussisch_blau. I can also be messaged through my personal account, which is preussisch_blau, but I don't know why you'd go through all that trouble. Also, if you really want to IM me, on AIM I can be easiest found on... preussisch_blau. :U so predictable amirite

ANYWHO, I'm looking forward to playing with everyone!

1./ Oh, right, American. I have this regrettable tendency towards Britishisms, so please yell at me if I have too many extraneous Us and a lack of Zs in my writing. Among other things, I'm sure, but those seem to be the ones most likely to sneak in based on prior experience.

You should hear me ramble about Simon Pegg or Connor Trinneer. :U I completely understand the urge to just tell everyone about a favourite celebrity, especially when you're talking to someone with no knowledge of them.

...Vampire Prosecutor? (I feel bad, because now I'm picturing Miles Edgeworth as a vampire and I am certain that is nowhere near accurate, but it's a funny mental image.)

My plurk can be full of rants concerning him and the not!Gackts I have collected. It's sort of sad.

Yeah it's got a great idea but the first episode is a bit slow. Then again it's a 'meet the characters' kind of episode, and I do enjoy the scruffy detective he is working with.

My plurk can be full of rants about the idiocy of my college and those attending it with me, alas. I think everyone would prefer rants about celebs at this rate. xD

Meet the characters episodes can be pretty slow, but yay for scruffy detectives~!

I do have a job I tend to rant about - or at least co-workers that I wish I can drop into a well.

It's sort of cute since the prosecutor is all in a neat suit and then you have this detective who is wearing last week's shirt and they're having a friendly conversation over a dead body.
