Hello, everyone~

 I'm Sean. I found this place scouring Dreamwidth for interesting original character games. The idea of a society governed by the rules of a deck of cards had appealed to me before (though my idea for it admittedly was an Illuminati-alike), so when I saw this I pretty much had to apply. 

I bring to you a (the, until we get another one) Three of Diamonds, Simon Joshua Thompson. His arrival in the Deck can best be described as a combination of boredom, happenstance, and dumb luck six months ago, but he's doing his best to make a go of it in a world he didn't know for sure existed, but is still more entertaining than the one he left behind.

He's a good, fun-loving sort with a tiiiiny bit of an authority and formality problem (no, he wasn't drunk when he became a Diamond, he really thought it would be a good idea, I swear!), and a whole lot of trying to find his place in the world for the first real time in his life. 

He's also about to start Ambassadoring to the Hearts, so there's that. He'll get a day job at some point once he figures out what to do with his BA in English. :(

I wrote a whole, WHOLE lot of words about it, most of which you can find here: simondsareforever.dreamwidth.org/327.html . Yes, I know there's a way to shorten that somehow, but I'm new to Dreamwidth (and wasn't very LJ/IJ literate when RPing THERE, either), so please bear with me as I make an idiot of myself for a bit in the beginning.

I look forward to writing with you all, making far, far more puns than any man should, and coming up with ludicrous, LUDICROUS challenge ideas in my spare time that will never be used. Nice to meet you all!
