Drow Bunny

From Egs Mayhem

Revision as of 05:35, 6 February 2007

Drow Bunny is a bunny who joined the Keenspot forums in April 2006, in response to the song-fu EGS comic. Initially he stayed in the main EGS forum, with only a limited foray into Mayhem on the recommendation of the bunny who glomped him. However, after several months, he stumbled into Let's Count to a Million!!! and took off from there.

Avatars

Drow Bunny's had a lot of avatars. This is perhaps due to a habit picked up from IM conversations of changing his userimage from time to time based on his mood swings, though his forum changes tend to be somewhat farther spaced. Most of his avatars have involved either A)drow, or B)mSusan. Exceptions do exist, though.

Drow Bunny (RL)

The real life Drow Bunny is rather paranoid, and usually makes a habit of not revealing information about himself. However, after almost a year in Mayhem, he's gradually started to open up. In fact, he's almost gotten used to the fact that his picture is on the main page for the Order of the Bunny.

He has explained his name once.

Drow Bunny (forums)

Drow Bunny' forum persona (shown below) is rarely referenced, and he has gradually lost interest in it, keeping it only for nostalgic value.

Drow Bunny is the alias of a young man who foolishly combined a fascination with elves and the TF technology granted in his newbie pack. After entering everything he knew about Drow (dark elves) into the gun, he decided to test his creation on a human subject: himself. What happened was something he never would have expected. Basing his hypothesis on current TF theory, the young man expected to gain drow-like characteristics while remaining essentially human; what actually happened was an actual interspecies conversion, turning him from a human into a dark elf.

Physically, Drow Bunny differs from her real life counterpart in significant ways. For one thing, she is female, and Drow. She possesses all of the abilities commonly associated with Dark Elves, including Darkvision (extremely acute infravision), the ability to create darkness, faerie fire, and motes of light, and has potent resistance to magic. This resistance also apparently applies to TF technology (though not other scientific procedures), essentially trapping her in female drow form.

Psychologically, there is little difference between the RL and forum persona. Drow Bunny has a tendency to be extremely polite and modest, usually goes out of his/her way to avoid confrontation, and worries constantly about offending people. He possesses a vast knowledge of random things, and will often go out of his way to learn more. He tends to be sentimental, a trait which is greatly amplified at night. The only real difference between the two aspects of Drow Bunny is that his forum persona is rather social, where the RL one is far more reticent and shy.

Drow Bunny describes his Dungeons & Dragons alignment to be Neutral Good, but he is likely far closer to being Lawful than he'll admit.

Due to a combination of storyline circumstances in Keenfans, Drow Bunny is once again human and male, and shows no indication of changing.

RPs

Drow Bunny originally participated only in the Keenfans RP, but due to lack of motivation he now rarely posts there. On the other hand, he is now involved in the Fae RP.

• Drow Bunny
  • Represents herself in the Keenfans RP. The only major differences are her access to various forms of potent magic and her psychological block which prevents her magic from working most of the time. This block results from her fear of jealousy and resentment on part of everyone else, leading her to subconsciously subordinate her power in an attempt to avoid "god-moding" (whether she can, in fact, muster the power of a god-mode character is unknown, but unlikely). Despite her general need for social approval, she has a fairly friendly rivalry with Drayco. Currently participating in the Forum games (outside the thread, on hiatus).
• Eddie
  • Eddie is a sentient shadow, named after Eddie, the shadow parasite from Guilty Gear. Despite his inauspicious naming, Eddie shares a more-or-less amicable relationship with Drow Bunny. The two usually cooperate, in between bouts of rather sibling-like fights. He is rather standoffish around most others. He deeply resents the Artmoogle, but silently, out of fear. Unlike Drow Bunny, Eddie's capabilities are somewhat better defined, combining capabilities of Guilty Gear Eddie and certain Dark powers from City of Heroes. Currently hiding underground (on hiatus).

RPs/Games/Other

Due to a combination of social insecurity and general RP uncertainty, Drow Bunny participates in few RPs, but contributes to several games. He also gives out hugs freely in The Hug Hospital.

• KeenFans RP 2.01
• Battle of the Pics
• The Music Association thread
• Let's Count to a Million!!!
• Word Association
• Word Disassociation
• The Hug Hospital
• Fae RP

Trivia

• Drow Bunny's love of obscure references tends to be awkward. As far as he knows, very few people on the forums know what Melty Blood is, recognize any game from the old World of Darkness (besides maybe Vampire: The Masquerade), play Gitaroo Man, etc.
• Eddie first appeared in Drow Bunny's posts in the City of Heroes forums, as Umbramancer's sentient, but rebellious, Dark Servant.
  • Eddie has been knocked out of the Keenfans thread three times by the Artmoogle. The first time, he landed in the Exploitation Now forums and had to work his way back (missing Mayhem and ending in the main forum). The second time, he hit the wall of the Keenspot forums, landing in When I Grow Up. The third time, he just bounced around various forum games like a superball before crashing back into the thread.
• Drow Bunny is rather apt to be verbose, but hates excessive repetition. Hence, writing his name so many times in this page has been near-unbearable.
• He almost became the moderator for the Mayhem Wiki, but was beaten by about three minutes and twelve shades of self-confidence by VOR.
• Drow Bunny was interrupted at first in writing this page because of lack of sleep and emotional overload from a 12:30 AM episode of Bleach.
• Drow Bunny has an extremely small fan thread on the main forums, with one single fan work (a poem).
• Drow Bunny also has a Livejournal account, which he updates rarely. However, it is home to what he considers some of his best writing (in the form of a travelogue to Japan).
• Drow Bunny corresponds with other bunnies very rarely outside the forums (post or PM). The only people known to have done so are FerretBob and Miss Sidhe. Speculation is that he hasn't gotten comfortable in that sort of one-on-one communication yet.
  • Yes, this means that speaking with Drow Bunny in real life is even worse. If contact does occur, don't be alarmed or offended if he appears so uncomfortable he may run away.
• Sir Drow Bunny is a knight in the Order of the Bunny.
  • Mostly because he managed to weather through meeting six other bunnies without collapsing in unwarranted social discomfort.
    • Coincidentally, he managed to meet R.A. Salvatore about 15 minutes before this occurred, so his social batteries may have gotten an overdrive boost. Or they just run really well on fumes.
