I was 17 when I first joined the group. I spent what felt like forever trying to find a group that I liked. When I did...wow! However, in my second year of college, had to retire my character (Rebecca Hollendale) to focus on my studies. But I found myself missing the outlet that role-playing provided and before long I was reapplying to UFOP with another character (Elina Kincade). Yet again, real life interfered with the birth of my oldest son and I had to retire her. As my son grew older, I again found myself missing role-playing. So I rejoined with my character, Lael Rosek, in 2015. And with the exception of one leave of absence to have my second son, I've been an active member ever since.
