- CTP: ==-> Ansef Pyreaus
- CLG: < ( ((I am amuzzed!)) )
- CNN: Of course it's not Dr. Wily. No, this guy is way too cool to be Dr. Wily - or at least he thinks of himself that way. This is a guy that, despite having all reason to stay away from computers, probably does keep five of them on his person at all times like a sensible troll.
- CNN: Your name is ANSEF PYREAUS. You live above a blisteringly hot SAND SEA or, as the highbloods would call it, a DESERT. Since you CAN'T ACTUALLY LEAVE YOUR HOME your only friends are people you've met on the TROLL INTERNET. Most of your life is consumed with the creation of VARIOUS DEVICES which are scattered around your hive. Unfortunately due to reasons you can't comprehend MOST OF THEM EXPLODE. Or CATCH FIRE. O
- CATCH FIRE. Because of this the desert is littered with FAILED DEVICES that you toss out the FRONT DOOR to your hive. Another of your interests is CODING which is necessary for some of your ROBOTIC DEVICES. You are far too much of an EXPERT to use ~ATH, instead doing all your coding in WURM, a coding language THREE TIMES AS COMPLEX as ~ATH. A portion of your hive is given over to your SERVER ROOM that you host BRUTAL DIGITA
- VIDEO GAMES on. Your sylladex is a CIRCUIT BOARD. You must complete the proper LOGIC SEQUENCES in order to retrieve anything from it. Despite the fact you are obviously a HUGE GEEK you like to think you are KIND OF COOL and wear your own pair of COOL SHADES. Although you would never admit it, you have VERY LOW SELF ESTEEM and have a tendency to do WHATEVER SOMEONE ASKS YOU TO DO even if they are lower on the hemospectrum.
- MASSIVE DEATH WORM, a huge carnivorous worm that lives in the desert below your hive. He is quite RANCOROUS because you keep dropping your FAILED DEVICES into his home and you REALLY JUST DON'T LIKE DEALING WITH HIM. Your Trolltag is theoreticalPracticality and y...ou have a ten...dency to pau...se while speak...ing</span>

- CTP: (If it's all right, I'm starting with his mainframe blowing him into the lab, and into apile of robot arms)
- CTP: (Of course, none of them worked)
- CNN: Can't argue with that logic. You burst out from a pile of entirely NONFUNCTIONAL ROBOT ARMS, having gotten there because your hive mainframe exploded while it was trying to process a WURM program you designed to host a Troll Arena 3 server. Fortunately, neither you nor your computer are harmed, but it doesn't changed the fact that you landed on your butt like a wriggler. Bursting out from the pile appears to hav

- CTP: ==-> Go into Server Room and examine it for damage
- CNN: As you go into your server room, you can see that it looks like a COMPLETE MESS: Like your laboratory on a middling-to-average day. The majority of your mainframe is still intact, although it seems to be running something entirely different from what you had intended.
- CTP: ==-> Examine the mainframe, find out what's running
- CNN: Your MAD SCIENCE SKILLS seem to have let you down, as usual. You can tell that it's running some sort of game, and that it's different than the one you intended to set up, but you have no idea what it is. At least from this end.
- CTP: ==-> Play the game
- CNN: You try to mess around with the mainframe to play the game, but if you couldn't figure out what it was from this end, you're not going to be able to play it here. Perhaps finding a monitor is in order?
- CGT: d~==> Build one!~d
- CTP: (Out of robot arms!)

- CTP: ==-> Retrieve computerized leg screen device. AKA Laptop
- CTP: (From the lab)
- CNN: You retrieve the laptop - One of your better inventions, it allows for screen access wherever you go. Possibly even while you're going, we don't really want to get into THAT part of troll biology here.
- CTP: ==-> Transfer the game onto laptop
- CNN: Upon booting up the laptop, you find that your mainframe is apparently running a game called Sgrub. Unfortunately, you are unable to figure out how the game works as it appears to be a purely multiplayer game.
- CTP: ==-> Examine the code for a bit, then give up and pester SA
- CNN: Apparently unwilling to trust your MAD SCIENCE SKILLS beyond the point of finding out that the multiplayer system works on a client/server player basis, you decide that you will figure out how this game works through trial and error: By getting a bunch of people to play the game. You decide to start with a guy who by all means is a stuffed shirt, but could be useful in convincing the rest of the trolls you know

- CNN: No way! This SUPER troll is his own man - although he thanks you for comparing him to what he thinks are supposed to be heroes.
- CNN: Your name is ROYAIL WEDDIN (which those of us up in the cheap exile seats find hilariously funny, for some reason), but everyone likes to shorten your name to ROY, which you find both amusing and slightly absurd. But you don't really care, you don't have time for PETTY NAMING SHENANIGANS, you've got bigger fish to fry, so to speak. You have a burning passion for COMIC BOOKS and other SUPERHERO-RELATED material.
- great THRESHECUTIONERS as the heroes of ALTERNIA, despite some of them being POTENTIALLY CORRUPT and OFF THEIR ROCKERS. You obtain your comic books from a TRUSTED SOURCE, someone who is able to get comics from just about anywhere, but he refuses to say where. You respect his privacy and keep dealings between him and you covert. Speaking of covert, you a very large LUSUS whom you've unofficially named OPHIUCHUS, which you ha

Fortunately you keep it well-fed with a steady supply of CROOKS, CRIMINALS, BURGLARS, and DOOR-TO-DOOR SALESTROLLS (among other things), so the possibility of it eating you whole would not be possible. It probably would be impossible anyways due to your horns, and your ability...You're one of the few trolls who can harness ELEMENTA

You keep your lab hidden via a SECRET HATCH, and the lab also contains
- TINKERING WITH VARIOUS GADGETS and other COOL THINGS, though you've yet to produce anything useful. Speaking of useful, you have quite the analytical mind and often GO OFF ON TANGENTS about the silliest things if you think it'll help you close a case, no matter how small. For the most part, these tangents are a COMPLETE AND TOTAL WASTE OF TIME. Or are they? You think about it. Then think about it some more. Then you wonder

- CLG: < ( ==-> Troll comic nerdzz on an internet forum. )

All those poor noobs find themselves agape when they are unable to explain how Superman is affected by green kryptonite while you explain in detail how he is affected by EVERY FORM OF KRYPTONITE in a long, barely tangentially related forum post. How can you do that man, shit like that is UNREAL.

Or they would if your Lusus didn't eat anyone who tried to rob your hive anyway. The point being, better to teach them a lesson now and have them see the error of their ways.
