Hiya!

NAME:. I'm going by 'Perhin' on the 'Net.

AGE: 30

INTERESTS & HOBBIES:
  • Anything by Tolkien,
  • Harry Potter,
  • Douglas Adams,
  • studying Japanese(I need to pick this back up),
  • playing fantasy RPGs online and just on the PC,
  • reading,
  • writing short stories and poetry,
  • drawing (I want to learn how to draw dragons and how to paint watercolor),
  • NatGeo History magazine and geeking-out over history in general (the Tudors are a fav and Hamilton was awesome),
  • quirky books that only I could find (like Gourmet Rhapsody and Waiting for Gertrude----I'm reading this sometime soon!),
  • watching sort-of old anime (is anyone here a Haibane Renmei fan?) and Studio Ghibli films, 
  • butterflying (this is like birding but with pretty bugs)
  • old black & white films (Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, and Jimmy Stewart are favs, oh, and the non-related Audrey Hepburn)
  • the Jazz Age (Dorothy Parker is Goddess)

LOOKING FOR: Art geeks, otaku wannabes, old film buffs, fantasy dorks, and someone who can handle a heavy dose of random history lessons in my journal.

ANYTHING ELSE?:Want to know more? Just ask!

I've developed an interest lately in the French aristocracy leading up to the French Revolution - all those Louis! I actually haven't heard of that magazine, but it sounds cool. Is there a digital subscription?

The main resource I can think of for Japanese off the top of my head is jisho.org, which is a great website for definitions, grammar, and conjugation. They also let you draw kanji if you can't copy-paste it (though it has to be done in stroke order...). Let me go through some of my stuff and find you some more.

I've played Kingmaker a little bit, but I found it a little too complicated on the default difficulty, if you know what I mean. I love playing tabletop Pathfinder, but I think that game is really meant for people who optimize their characters.

I do have Neverwinter Nights 1 on Steam! I haven't played much of it yet, but I love the creativity of being able to make your own modules. I mostly use GOG for original (not re-released) old games so they work on modern PCs and come with all the cool bits. They're a godsend for playing the original Fallout games for instance!

That's ok. I can look into it. Can't have you doing all the work! ;)

As far as I know, I don't think GOG will ever get the rights to the Sims games. EA wants to keep that stuff under lock and key. You can't even purchase Sims 1 or 2 legally from them anymore. There are, uh, other methods.
