Too busy with school to spend a lot of time here...Then again, I seem to find quite a bit of posting time anyway. biggrin Now if only I applied that more to my work.At some point, I realized that I wasn't just picking cool items and clothes for this avatar, I had given him a character and story of his own. Not a very good or original story, maybe, but it's there. So, here's the story of Mikkat (more to be added as it occurs to me).
Mikkat envisions himself as a sort of Indiana Jones type character. Blazing new territory, adventurous spirit carrying him onward. Unfortunately, he's really more a mad scientist. A zoologist intrigued by ancient and fantastic animals, he studied and developed methods of cloning dinosaurs and other extinct animals. His research was banned by bosses who had seen a certain movie too many times, and he continued from home in secret. In addition to finally successfully cloning a few species, he started to think about splicing DNA to create mythical animals such as griffins and dragons as well as dinosaurs modified to be smaller and less aggressive. This has been highly successful and his home is filled with these creations. It's really fairly impressive and he probably should be famous, but he can't tell anyone what he's done! So he just turned them into pets and learned to be satisfied with knowing for himself what he's accomplished.
And sometimes he does Dresden Files cosplay or wears other unrelated costumes, because the person playing him likes them. But overall there's a story. biggrin
