Hey, all. I be new here and all, nice to meetcha. You can call me Asterfall, Aster, something along those lines. As long as I know you're talking to me ;) So, basically, I'm obsessed with Redwall... I didn't think anything like this still existed. I remember back in the day when Mr. Jacques' series was pretty popular... anyway.
My little story: I've been suffering from Redwall Fever ever since I found out two or three weeks ago that Brian Jacques' passed away. It was like an itch. I got three of his recorded books from the library just so I could hear his voice... For the first week I kept looking all over the interwebs because I really, really had this fever to roleplay it. It was a last desperate attempt at google today when I found you.
So right now I'm pretty much bursting from pleasure! He has been my favorite author for seven years - for the curious, my favorite of his definitely Mossflower. I received a lovely paper back copy of it last year. The first two weeks I had it, I carried it with me pretty much everywhere I went, reading it about three times. Then I accidentally dropped it into a bucket of raspberries we had picked and stained the closed pages along the top of the book and I've left it home ever since. :D Anywho, enough rambling and babbling. I be Aster, and I'm really glad to be here!

Hey Aster, welcome to LoRA! Yup, you may've stumbled upon one of, if not the, most active Redwall sites around. We're a tough bunch to find nowadays.
I'm Tracy, one of the mods hereabouts. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm around fairly often, but there's almost always someone ready and willing to have chat in the CBox, so definitely check that out. =)
I hope to see a character profile up soon, we have a lot of fun stuff going on that could use some characters.

Nice to meet you both! Seeing as my brother brought me into Redwall when I was nine in the first place, he's an avid fan like me - I'm going to tell him about this site right away and I'm positive he'll join.

Hey you. Yes you. WELCOME. Raspberries, eh? Devilish fruits indeed, but tasty! I cannot promise that you won't be introduced to some more here. That makes NO sense, but I'm gonna roll with it! I'm Wildrun (as you can tell, I'm sure), your crazy local gmod. I don't bite (much), and I love people! (taste good with mustard). I'm fond of Vikings (the ancient warriors, not any sports team), am obsessed with the German language, and have a bundle of characters who're excited to roleplay with you. Watch out for the stoats, though. They're nuts. Anyway--welcome aboard, and make yourself at home! -Wildy

Ahaha - yup, the pages smell like raspberries... but it adds to the flavor of Redwall when reading, right? Personally I like my people with a side of icecream, but whatever. I'm fond of pirates (fond as in I just happen to secretly be one) and am obsessed with the ocean and Japanese culture! I happen to not have a bundle of characters, but I most certainly will eventually.
Thanks for the welcome! I already feel at home. Redwall just does that to people, eh?
