In terms of factions, I was hoping to stay Underwordly/mercenary, but I'm not sure how active I'll be to dedicate myself to a faction yet.
TGC is The Gungan Council, another roleplaying board. I actually really enjoy it there, and have made some amazing friends writing there and told some stories I'm very proud of or thrilled to have been a part of, but a lot of people have had issues with how the owner treats people, and there is quite often a lot of drama (which I've been caught up in in the past, I admit). I won't link to it as I kinda feel that's bad form on another board, but I do enjoy my time there as well.
