Elsewhere: C'ren (Part 1)

C'ren the dragon rider

My readers have already complained that C'ren is a stupid name. As a matter of fact, when I decided to do my research some time ago, I realized that C'ren is actually a common (I think I found about two other Pernese fan-made characters with the same name) Pernese masculine name (another Sue point for C'ren of One Less Lonely Gurl!), and is therefore, not stupid. The guy on the left is actually my interpretation of a fan-made character from this antiquated Geocities website where Anne McCaffrey fans would roleplay and live out their fantasies of living in the world of Dragonriders of Pern, a sci-fi/fantasy book that McCaffrey wrote. (Coincidentally, my trollfic was labeled as sci-fi/fantasy. Hey, I didn't know about this book until then!)

The name C'ren is actually commonly pronounced as See-ran (as with this character), and a dramatic reading of my fic by some British chick who happens to be a fanfic reviewer pronounced it as such. C'ren of One Less Lonely Gurl, however, is pronounced as Karen as a pun on Plankton's computer's name.

Now, for a character profile. Also, I will test if this character is a Gary Stu. (Most likely, he's not. The character rules actually state that no Mary Sues and Gary Stus are allowed.)

Disclaimer: Since I don't actually know much about Pernese culture provided that I haven't really read any of the books, this profile might be inaccurate. Nevertheless, this is the most wholesome character profile in this blog so far amidst all the Sue Profiles that are really just as offensive as the characters themselves.

Troll's Eye View: The Book

I went on to randomly Googling my blog's name, Troll's Eye View, to see what would come out. I discovered that my website actually shares names with a book.

Coincidentally, just like my blog that tells a story from the point of view of a former internet troll (considered to be the 'villain' of the internet), this book tells stories from the point of view of the antagonists. I'm also working on a story told from the point of view of an antagonist, Sheldon James Plankton (who coincidentally shares names with me, and also coincidentally, James Sullivan, James Durbin, Michael James Way, Zachary James Baker, and St. Jimmy. Oh, and Harry Potter's dad, too.)

Yeah, James is an awesome name. :)

Anyway, I firmly believe that no one is born entirely evil or good, and that life is just infinite shades of gray. I live with the principle of doing my best to see what is good in everything and the bad in even the most 'perfect' of Mary Sues. This belief system is very similar to what is being presented in this book, which I might consider reading someday.

Plankton

Ever since I was a kid, I've always been fascinated with villains and why they almost always lose. I've always seemed to understand that villains don't really just do things for the evulz. Even if the story itself would say that they are just evil by nature, I don't actually believe in things and people being naturally evil. (Yes, even insanity counts as a logical motive for being evil, therefore, s/he isn't innately evil. Insanity, in turn, has to be caused by something traumatic that must have happened in the past.)


Fun Fact: This is my third post that doesn't have a jump link.

Elsewhere: My FFN Penname

I randomly googled the name 'Monica Gilbey-Bieber', my penname, and came across this:

It turns out that Monica Gilbey is a real name, and I'm sorry for that. I owe this woman an apology. Also, did anyone notice that it is in a website about the Parish of St. James? And that my name is James? Creepy...
