Good evening to all citizens of the Neath. I’m Viquorius, but do call me Viq.
I’ve been exploring Fallen London for only a couple of months now and have made great progress in establishing myself already, primarily detecting – I’ve recently branched out into archeology – and enjoying both the high and bohemian society, a delicate balancing act.
When I first arrived and for a good while after, I fell frequently into befuddlement, and as I quickly scrambled to make the best choices, I forgot to really enjoy the mise-en-scène of life in the Neath. Oh dear. I hope to help others avoid what I went through. And then, too, I hope to avoid it myself.
Currently I seek interactions with fellows in the Neath for our mutual benefit. To that end, I’m off to The Singing Mandrake. I hope to see you there.
I’ve been in London for quite some time now, but I wish to expand my social circles and join you all here. Very pleased to make your acquaintance!
Josephine Gibson is a lady who wishes to experience all the Neath has to offer, and while pleasure is preferred, danger and madness please her just as well. She is quite the collector of objects and oddities and she treasures companions the most. Unfortunately, she’s a bit of a hoarder, but don’t tell her that! She has made quite a name for herself in her seven years in the city, fighting tooth and nail and backstabbing whoever she can to attain adulation. She is currently pursuing her first goat.
(ALT) Marion Blackburn is not a willing denizen of London. She’s spent most of her first year in the city hiding in her tiny attic room. But she was forced to the streets a few months back in order to pay her mounting debts. She’s trying to make an honest living in a dishonest city now. She has yet to find her purpose in this place of shadows and secrets, but I trust it won’t take her long.
I’ve lurked the forums for years whenever I’ve been active in FL, and finally decided to leave the shadows. Over the years I’ve played in bursts. Six months to a year on, then distracted away for several months before wandering back again. But now I’ve set my sight on goats and plan to stick to it until Josephine is fully goated! And Marion presents me with the new challenge of staying honest, which I’m looking forward to.
Dearest future friends and enemies (were you aware that you have all been implied to be delicious?),
I am a recent arrival in the Neath and, with the possible exception of all these rats running amok, find it to be much more inspiring, interesting and enthralling than any surface world I’ve even inhabited.
I am hoping to meet many of you fellow Neath dwellers, and I welcome any and all social interactions… unless they’re boring. I don’t do well with boring. Or sitting still. Or beets. Gross. I would especially enjoy any helpful hints or missives from those much more experienced than I, or even just as experienced as I (so long as the hints do not involve beets).
May you always have a clean shirt, a clean conscience, and a guinea pig in your pocket,
I have been part of this Fallen city for some time now and am looking forward to finally diving into these forums.
I play as Ahsim, an individual whom I could describe here, but I won’t. Instead let me extend an invitation to any and all social interactions (on Ahsim’s behalf) and give you the opportunity to get to know him for yourselves.
Hello, I played a while back under a different account (that I had forgotten about) and now have a new character exploring and making messy mistakes and courting madness and death (not always intentionally).
Good Evening,
My name is Jane… but most everyone who knows me, knows me as Shiner. I’m always available to help a friend in need. I enjoy quiet readings and chess rivalries. If you were to peruse my bookshelf… you would find proscribed poetry, cutting edge anatomies, and that the Book of Ruth has been removed from a much-used Bible.
I am receiving calling cards for new and interesting Acquaintances.
Have a delicious day, fellow citizens. I’m Kamilla, and I’m somewhat new to Fallen London (but played Sunless Sea before that and love the lore).
My character is something like my alter-ego - ambitious, talented, open-minded, daring and subtle at the same time, but also kinda lazy and not really blessed by luck.
I hope we’ll get along fine. I’m not that good at roleplay (and at English, huh), but it can be a very interesting experience.
Arden Terraward here; I abandoned the Neath aeons ago for the pleasures of the Surface, just to become disenchanted by them and seek solace once more in the shadowy depths of the Dreaming Caverns…
It is a delight to be back, to explore and seek all that this dark, twinkling utopia has to offer…and I shall gladly do it in the company of like minded individuals.
Greetings and Good Evening, my fellow Delicious Friends!It is nice to finally get to interact with the community of Fallen Londoners for once.I play a war veteran who I regret choosing the name I first chose for him since I didn’t know much about the game at the time, and I can’t really buy any fate to change my name with since I’m broke as a bottle of Greyfields.Anyway, getting more in character now.Greetings and Hello, my soon-to-be-friends.How are you all?I came to The Neath very recently.A good friend told me great things about this place.Anyway, my current goal is to enjoy my life and possibly acquire immortality.And I’ve also recently become obsessed with hunting this Vake thing.Don’t know what that’s about.Let me give you a more proper…Talk?Interaction?..I’ve had enough of the surface.It’s boring.My life feels empty.Worthless.Monotone.At least my job made most of things better, both in pay and in adding a sort of spice to my life.But here in The Neath, things are so much better.I love it here.It’s simply amazing.Even dying isn’t that bad when you think about it.The only thing I regret is the fact I won’t get to see and feel the golden touch and warmth of sunlight.But that isn’t that important to me.It’s nice to think about sunlight, for nostalgia’s sake.Nostalgia.Brings back some good memories.And lots of bad ones.Too many bad ones.But I’ll hang on to them because they won’t break me, and a memory with a big impact on you is one worth remembering.Except if you can’t keep it in your mind without it slowly breaking you apart.Getting more out of character here, how exactly does this forum thing work?Haven’t really been to any forums on this site, so I’m curious as to what everything does exactly.And I also can’t wait to finally interact with other fellow players again.Only interacted in-game with a few friends who are barely immersed in the lore or community.And a stranger that randomly added me to my contacts and invited me to play chess, who I don’t think is active anymore.I don’t know.Anyway, it’s nice to finally get to meet some of you.
Hi, good evening everyone. This is Jithin, a maxed out courier footprint blessed with an Extraordinary Mind looking forward to expanding my influence and to a lot more of social interactions in the Neath.
Good evening everyone,
I am Emmy Buchman, a mathematician come to study the mysteries of the neath. I am new to these subterranean streets, yet I have already discovered many marvelous things! I am always open to a good scholarly chat, game of chess, or tea.
I would like to introduce myself under the pseudonym of my character, Vial Laudanum. I am intending to begin writing about her adventures in the fanfiction section here :)
But really, I’m also Jess, and I only recently found Fallen London through The Allusionist podcast. Very pleased to be here! I am a bit of an amateur writer anyway, so I’m quite excited about having something lovely to write about in character!
Eustace here!
Pleased to meet you, gentlemen and ladies!
Both in Fallen London and in real life I’m an utter oddity, something in between a soulless and a tomb-colonist.
But heeeeeey, it’s not a reason to stop the fun!
Oh my, I do beg your pardon! How clumsy of me to run right into you like that. And now your fine coat is all out of sorts and covered with crumbs. Please, allow me to set things right…
There, all fit and free of burdens! Again, my humblest apologies and…oh, that’s very kind of you to say. Thank you for your, ah, generosity, and a very good evening to you.
Oh hi there!
Why are you looking at me like that? Sorry my mind is kinda occupied, I’m always haunted by dreadful nightmares, sleep is a privilege for me. I wonder how, I still have not taken to a mental hospital…
You look like a lovely individual and it seems you have some sort of interest in me. Then I shall introduce myself. They call me doctor and I’m new in the Neath.(interesting weather by the way) The name is Alessandra, I go by the name Sky in my dreams.
But please, I wouldn’t want to turn this into a boring conservation. So don’t just stand there do come in and let us share a bottle of wine! We’ll tell stories with excitement while getting to know each other. edited by Sky on 6/2/2017
I hope this finds you well and rested. I am afraid I must make your acquaintance proper at a later date, as you were asleep when I visited. You looked quite peaceful when I checked, too, so I was not so rude as to rob you of your rest. After all, I did [i]rob you of several of your valuables. I do hope it is nothing you will miss… much. You will notice I left that van Ceulen on your wall; I must regretfully inform you it is a forgery, albeit a convincing one. I must commend you for your good taste though. You can tell a lot about a person from how they furnish their dwelling, and I am certain you and I would get along splendidly, in better circumstances. I fear I must cut this visit short, but here is my card, and a little token of my regard.
Veuillez agréer, chère victime, l’expression de mes sentiments distingués.
