Looks like I joined the wrong fan site...

[Harry Potter]

I'm kidding :P

 

I was walking through my local bookstore one day when across the way I saw a line of books on display. The titles were too far away for me to read but instantly the black covers caught my interest. With nothing more than that to go on (yes, I do judge books by their covers ;) I quickly grabbed up the first three and made my way to the counter.

 

That was almost ten years (has it been that long???) ago now. Little did I know that from the first page Robert Jordan's words would sink their hooks into me, and they are still embedded deep to this day. At least once a year I read my favourite books from the series (The Eye of the World, Knife of Dreams) and often I will think of a particular scene that sends me back to the books to read, re read, and read again until I am satisfied that I can glean no more from it.

 

Why it has taken me so long to find this place I do not know, but now that I am here I look forward to meeting fellow fans (in ten years I have only met... two :( lengthy discussions, healthy debates and joining the role play.

Great to have you here and great forum name (surprised it wasn't taken!)

 

Do check out the social groups. I especially recommend the White Tower and/or the Black Tower, among all the other awesome ones.

 

I think everyone wonders how it took them so long to get here but happy to have you with us!  

[Nyanna al'Meara]

[Harry Potter]

Hey thanks for the welcome :)

I will get an avatar... eventually XD I'm just cruising around, getting to know the site, and when I am done I'm sure I will have a ton of questions.

[michellem]

Welcome! It's a seriously nice feeling to get to hang around with all these other nerds XD

 

When you feel settled in... Do come play mafia

[Verbal32]

I LOLed at the title and handle.  Good work.

[Ryrin]

Hello!!! Welcome to DM. I especially hope you drop by the White Tower and Warders. :) Just be aware in the social groups, there are boards you cannot see until you decide to join. You can join as many as you like.

[Harry Potter]

[Harry Potter]

I'm under the Imperius curse... I've come to infiltrate your ranks >.>

[Hayl3y]

that is scary... O_O

 

as I usually end up in slytherin in all the HP personality tests

[Leala]

(yes, I do judge books by their covers ;) 

 Also guilty of that.  *cough*  Although, it has led to me getting addicted to a few series.  So, apparently, we have good instincts.

  

Welcome to DM, Harry!  You should stop by the White Tower Social Group.  We Blues are known as the "Harry Potter Ajah."  It's because we host a Harry Potter week every July, but most of us are also professed Potterheads.  ;)

 

We have a lot of other awesome SGs as well.  

 

Also, the rp is pretty amazing as well.  xD 

[MattheHat]

Lol indeed... Welcome, Harry Potter, to heaven DM! >.>

 

I hope you'll have lot of fun, with your humor you'll fit right in

 

^ I 'spose I should do some recruiting as well then If you happen to like weapons, armies, battles, Archery... >.> then I suggest you take a peek into the Band of the Red Hand SG, we have a pretty awesome RP styled dice-based battle game

 

Do you do any RPGing, tabletop or computer?

[Harry Potter]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the friendly welcome, greetings and invites :) What I have seen so far is by far the best WoT site I have poked around (there are a few out there... one has not seen any action for quite sone time :/) And... dare I say it... the best fan site. Even better than Pottermore and all its exclusive content (forgive me J.K, I love you dearly... RIP Fred <3

The Sorting Hat chose me for Ravenclaw ^.^ It's definitely because im weird, not because I'm intelligent >.>

I'm so there! Well, I'm on my way :P My wand keeps leading me astray whenever I tell it Point Me! >.< I will be speaking to Ollivander about this!

 

Matrim Hat-rim... I was hoping to gate crash that party. Being invited takes all the fun out of it ;)

[Hayl3y]

*balefires your invitation*

 

well, now, as u're not on the guest list anymore, u can still gate crash as much as u want

[Harry Potter]

Baelfire? Harsh... ;)

[Hayl3y]

maybe it was a bit out of proportion

[Harry Potter]

Maybe just a little bit :P

[Hayl3y]

It's a bad habit I caught in the Black Tower

 

but if you go to the Band of the Red Hand after all, try not to mention this... they don't like people channeling that much *nods*

[Harry Potter]

I'll try not to... no promises XD

[Hayl3y]

*tries to smile*

*coughs*

 

i think i'll need to ready myself for some more chores then

just in case

[Harry Potter]

*tapping my chin* Hmm, blackmail...

[Hayl3y]

... oh, wait...OBLIVIATE !

 

it's the right spell, isn't it ? *grins*
