Hey guys! I’m one of the two awesome mods you get to meet in December!
So for those of you who do not know me yet, my name is Chris, which is pretty ordinary isn’t it? Shame it couldn’t be something crazy like…Spurlock. *shrugs* Anyways…what have I done around here? Well we shall start at the beginning. Yep! I joined SS in September of 2008, my sophomore year of High School after coming across it while looking for Harry Potter movie info and have been active since. This was my first RPG site and I was very excited to get into the thick of things and interact with all the other HP fans out there.
I was lucky enough to join the site during a School RPG sorting and was sorted into Gryffindor. I rped my first character two terms and then was asked to be prefect. After Prefecting for 3 consecutive terms I was asked to be Head Boy for the School. After that character I had another and am now on my third. I also help out with the coding of the School RPG yearbook and have played Quidditch around 4 terms. Shortly being sorted into the school RPGI eagerly joined the Ministry of Magic RPG and was hired into the Dept. of Magical Transportation, was then promoted to Division Head and finally to Department Head, a position I still hold today.
Outside of the RPGs I have been very active in the Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes Games and Fan Club forums. I frequented both forums a lot and played all of the games and became the President or an officer of many fan clubs. In July 2011 I was asked to be a mod for both of these sections and I still happily help watch over these two spots.
Outside of SS I am a first year University student studying Secondary Education English/Literature and am also a History nerd. I love watching some television shows and a huge fan of movies. I jam out a lot to my Ipod while running or working on homework. I wait tables while not at school to help get that money to see the movies I love so much! Now I haven’t told EVERYTHING about myself so…
…away my dear friends! Quote:
Ask me a question to get to know me better! (questions about the site or your sorting or posts don't belong here, those should be asked in the Questions and Answers thread)
Spam will be deleted, as will any non question posts, or posts that indicate you haven't read this first post.

The trees ARE strong.
Oooh great question and I'm excited you like history aswell. So it's hard for me to pick one favorite time only but I can try to pick 3-ish? xD I really enjoy Roman Empire stuff, Middle Ages/Renaissance, and WWII. Quote:

I am a fan of many different types but I would have to say Indy/Alternative stuff but I am not totally opposed to Pop. Quote:

But on here I seem to mix people's names up sometimes b/c I am thinking of someone else whilst typing and I called a guy who's not very active on here anymore the name of another member on here I was rping with and then got annoyed why they didn't understand what I was talking about -- until I looked at their username again. xDD
Also while rping my first charrie Chris Potter I had him in a class, I think Transfiguration, and I meant to say "He threw his wand, in a way that the Professor had instructed them to do so..." and instead it was like: "Hey threw his wand away that the Professor had instructed..." and I was like NOO His wand is gone in the trash! |

CHRIS!!!! I AM SO EXCITED IT'S YOUR MONTH FOR THIS!!!! So excited I forgot all the weirdo questions I have to ask...
If you could pick one fictional character to be, who would you pick?
Annnnd just to be super creepy, if you could pick any famous person to be, who would you pick? (I would pick Darren Criss, because I would love to be so disgustingly talented  Or a Hybrid of Darren Criss and Johnny Weir because then I would be disgustingly talented, athletic, and a diva  )

Since you've said you like the Roman Empire (and I have to agree that Ancient History, especially on the Roman's is epic) what is your favourite battle that took place during that time?

Welcome to my lovely thread.
Gahhh I think every member who comes in here tries to think of hard questions just to see my flail. xDDD
Fictional character would be Nick from the Great Gatsby because he gets to go to all the great cool parties in the 20's and doesn't get 'hurt'. lol Was going to say Harry Potter but everyone knows that would be their first choice.
O___O A Famous person to be? Well let's say I would be...Jason Gordon Levitt. He gets to be in fun movies like 500 Days of Summer and really cool ones like the new Batman and Inception! Quote:
Originally Posted by aureus_aura Hiya! Just wondering what type of animagus would you be if you were given a chance?? Animagus, eh?
I think I would pick a dog. I am a very friendly and excitable person and I think I would make a good golden retriever animagus! Quote:

Well I would have to say...the battle of Carthage in North Africa. *nods* The Romans went in and won, then ordered the city to be demolished. They refused so finally the leveled the whole city and then salted the ground so nothing would ever grow back there.  That's pretty hardcore.
Also I found it very interesting when poorer nations/areas let the Romans take over them without any fighting in order to get better roads and public housing. xDDDD

Actually I have learned a little bit about the dynasty system and Eastern Asia's role in trade and early colonization with Europe, but my international history class only touched on the subject. Hopefully I will be able to study some more of that here while I am at University. Quote:

Thanks, I'm glad someone likes them.
Roro, are you seriously trying to start a battle in my head with all my charries? Well I've obviously like them all but I think that my favorite all around was Chris Potter, my first charrie, mainly because he was my first and he achived so much. haha
But I loved being able to play a mean guy, Riley, and the innocent Muggleborn August. And don't even get me started on playing the evil cultist Armen! Quote:

Well me and my friends are CONSTANTLY silly and weird so its hard to pinpoint exactly what our weirdest things would be but we like to yell random movie catch phrases and Shakespeare lines as responses to questions that leave themselves open to it. xDDD
2. Hmmm...I would probably pick Fred or George.  They live in a pure wizarding family so I can learn all the different types of magic I wanted plus I could goof around all the time. Quote:

Hmmm...I would pick Anthony only because Ceasar is murdered, even though Anthony continued to live on and was seen as a brawny air-head. xDD Quote:

What I have found to be so special about this site, besides the fun rps and games, are the awesome people and members. I've met so many great people on here and I talk to them practically everyday. So many great friends.

Peanut butter pie interesting. *pokes you back*
So...if we regain the Ministry which we obviously will do we just automatically get our Apparation licenses back?
And what is your favorite flavor of ice cream?  I guess I have something going for food right now.

Yes, that is always a good thing because even though we all love the School RPG sometimes the things going on it in push the interest in the MoM to the side. :/ But we want them BOTH to be uber awesome and fun!
*siiiigh* I really want some now.
I was actually going to allow anyone who HADN'T been tested that still want so rp doing so they can and for the others they will have them reinstated, yes.
Favorite Ice Cream is mint chocolate chip! Quote:

My favorite HP movie would probably be Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 or Prisoner of Azkaban.  Just because of how dark they were to show the true feeling of the Potterverse in those crucial and panicking times. *nods*
And I have way too many different favorite non-HP movies, two of them would be: Catch Me If You Can and Inception.

Since you're in university focusing on Secondary Education English and Literature, what tye of career are you pursuing? An English professor/teacher/literary research?
What career opportunities are there in that field as I'm not familiar with it, Bio student here.

Favorite Ice Cream is mint chocolate chip!  I agree, School seems to get all of the big events, and MoM is just there, but it is so much fun having the big revolt.  I really wanted to take them that makes me happy, even though my Isabelle is taking them also.
All hail fellow mint chocolate chip lover
Well...since I don't know what to ask...I will go with another food...favorite type of pizza?
