Can / would someone please clear up who is / does what? I am normally pretty good at picking things up, but all I have managed to get to stick is a swirl of names and troubles.

I am Nakamura Kei, my associates call me Dr. Nakamura, my friends normally don't call me - but if they did Kei would be fine. I used to be a tenured reasearcher with the Tokyo Universities Anthropology and Archaeology departments, the two fields a majored in and got my doctorate for. My minors were astronomy, and particle physics. I am currently in post graduate studies for metaphysics and parapsychology. As for the status of my tenure, I am still on the rolls, but I am listed as on an "extended sabbatical" after the events at Yonaguni.

While I am on sabbatical I would like to work on my thesis papers on my current fields of study. I can also offer access to several private collections of rare documents and historicly signifigant items -on a limited basis of course, I don't own the items in question but have built a reputation on being able to authenticate and appraise such things, and several collectors view me favorably.

I am a gun "enthusiast". I primarily deal with creatures and monsters and demons that can be shot, stabbed, or blown up. if it can't be hurt by any of those things I'm pretty worthless.

My lack of a social life when I was younger really gave me a lot of time to study, books are so much more forgiving of misunderstandings than people....

What's up Nakamura-san.

The name's Konrad (don't ask for the rest, you won't get it).

I'm quite simply a wandering swordsman fighting the good fight with my rune blade Karlash and my team of four fellow hunters.

Welcome to the boards.

I go by either KT or Josh. Either is fine. I'm a druid, which is to say that primarily, I'm a philosopher. Secondarily, I have limited shapeshifting abilities, and practice magic of defensive and healing natures to defend myself and others from harmful paranormal activities. I also work with spirits a lot.

If you see red letters being posted from this account, that's not me. That would be Gabriel, who's something like my antithesis...but not quite, and not exactly... It gets confusing; don't worry about it.

Ying and Yang, Kon-Tiki. Gabe's not that bad of a creature, honestly. Rather direct and unpreterbed by the neccessities that come from work.

As for myself... I am a researcher into the paranormal, with an intense focus on the Astral plane and it's residents, as well as unffiliated non-corporial entities.

I have quite a few more tricks than just that, but that'll do for an explanation for now.

Adama, why do you call KT Kon-Tiki?

I'd tap the side of my head, but that wouldn't be the best way to refer to the information and interaction I've gained from my Artifact. It, or to be more precice, the being it was a part of, knew Kon-Tiki's teacher, who's name he borrows for his handle here on Lazlo.

The nickname Kon-Tiki is an inside joke between Void/Myself and the true Kon-Thaak. I apply it to KT, because I find it amusing.

Fair enough. If only a little bit confusing.

I'm The Traveler King. I work for Randolph Electronics Corporation. I am involved in their Special Projects Division, particularly the collation and assimilation of data from exploratory missions. I also keep tabs on the big mouth baddies that come here and make noise, noting where they are posting from and routing that to the appropriate people. I am married and lead a reasonably normal life outside of work, aside from current injuries which I am recovering from.

I try to keep as much of my private life off of the board as possible in order to avoid tragedies like the ones that our other regulars have experienced.

There is a lot about us in the Roll Call topic, too.

My situation breaks down pretty much like a standard military unit would. The hordes of researchers and analysts keep me very busy.

A couple of my comrades post here. Natasha came from the research and analyst side into operations seeking adventure, and, well, she found it. Sasha and I have known for as long as he can remember, but that is another story. None of my other comrades post here, but some of the folks here have met them.

Hi. Name's Ben Holister. We talked on the phone. I am regarded as the resident lunatic, fresh out of the f**cking nut house too. Whoowho! I also own several firearms if that makes you feel any better.

Let me answer that question with a question..

Are (a) homocidal, (b) suicidal, (c) both, or (d) neither ?

Actually Holister, the only lunatics on this site are Deathblaster and the Dark Voice.

The Voice because he keeps pissing so many of us off and DB, well he should be self explanatory.

Your just complicated Holister. And anyways, aren't we all a little nuts.

I keep telling you, don't talk about him! If you keep mentioning that annoying kid, he'll come back. I don't believe in karma, but I do believe in the ability to jinx it for everyone. Don't ruin something so beautiful as his absence.

Formerly C, currently D

Good news then.

Then again, it's already Monday.

Thanks

Oh for crying out loud, that stupid prick is gone. He got bored and left. Thankfully. I and my .45 were this close to to making sure he never had constipation problems ever again.

Exactly which 'stupid prick' are you talking about?

Somewhere along the line you must associate with that comment for some reason.

Oh ptichka

Very funny.
