Welcome

 
May 7th

A quick post from Scotland! I absolutely love it here and could see why, minus the weather, people come to visit/live here. The people are incredibly friendly and helpful.

On Neo, I've been working away at my Aethia goals and working extensively on my sites, particularly Oasis. I have some big things planned in the next coming weeks!

Welcome

September 20th

I had just come back from my birthday dinner, after having a great time with my real life friends and celebrating with my neofriends and I saw that. I had received a response on Friday that had made me upset for the future of my account and then that.

Almost exactly 6 months later, I got my main and esteemed back. I was so giddy, excited to have my pets, NC, items and accomplishments back. I want to thank everyone who has reached out to me in this amazing time. I also really want to thank Tony for believing in me!

Needless to say, my accounts are kind of a mess! My userlookups are outdated and even parts of my portfolio need to be changed. But, I'd gladly take that for having a frozen account!!

Surath gifted me the absolutely BEAUTIFUL Mellra to host my future button requests site :D I am so, so grateful to have such a wonderful friend. Thank you so much love, along side your other crazy amount of gifts. I can't begin to say how much I appreciate it.

Effie is helping me paint Katniss!! If TNT lets me keep the Red Draik Morphing Potion, I can finally let Katniss be the Woodland Draik she was meant to be! THANK YOU SO MUCH EFFIE! I was so shocked, I don't deserve it at all!

School is super stressful, so I had to tone down my goals. Now that I have my main back, I'll try to do a combination of avatar/trophy/drawing/writing goals. I'm so excited!!

Since leaving TNP, I've lost a lot of people I thought were my friends. I don't ever know if they'll see this, but I guess I will say I know what you've said/think about me and I'm not sure I understand why. Thank you to those people who have supported me through thick and thin. ♥


 

Welcome

August 8th

Some days you wake up and you don't feel good. That was me today. I felt sick and so weird I decided to work from home. I did a lot of Neo stuff, like opening the Games Bloc and convincing a friend to apply for TNP. I updated my portfolio (this is round two) and I did a really thorough sweep of F&A. I talked to Surath for the majority of today.

At 1:21 PM, I received a neomail from Kido, a good friend and Katniss owner (who I had applied for), saying that Katniss' owner was going to be chosen today. I was eager and nervous, but in all honesty, I really had believed that if I wasn't chosen, I'd be okay. Kido and I really befriended over the entire process and I think I'm walking away a better person because of her. She's so nice and friendly, it's hard not to like someone like her.

We chatted, waited for some of the other finalists and when it came close to announcing the winner, I felt sick to my stomach. I've been rejected for pets before, but nothing is more exhilarating/terrifying than waiting to hear, when it's so close you can almost taste it. She said she would mail the owner and at 2:36 PM, I saw she had mailed me. My heart, already racing a mile a minute, began to panic. But I tried to reason that it could be a general mail to inform all the finalists a decision was being made.

Needless to say, I burst into tears, my hands shook and I fumbled to find the thank you I thought I had recited and rehearsed if I had been so lucky. I was lucky and I felt like jelly. I still sort of do, but I'm regaining composure. I've gotten a lot of support from my friends and very kind strangers, but none greater than Kido herself. My heart goes to all the Katniss applicants and the finalists. I want to clone her and share her all with you, but I can't. I hope you continue to follow her story and her changes as she grows with me.

I nervously accepted her to my account redeemyourself and I stared. I wanted to customize her a bit, but being Baby has it's draw backs. I found a starter Red paint brush (fitting for a cheap colour!), put some clothes on and I stared. I'm still staring. I also moved my application to her page, so if anyone is curious, they can see it. I'm thinking of re-doing the layout and saving that image for her first BC entry when she's a Woodland Draik, but I'm unsure.

I hope that anyone who reads this knows that I am so grateful and I am such a believer that anything is possible. I used to stalk Katniss so much and was always so sad to see 'Never UFT/UFA.' My luck changed and I hope I can do what Kido did for me to someone else. Thank you to everyone for all your help and all your love/support. When I forget there are good people in the world, I think of you. Kido, if you see this, just know I can't ever express how I'm feeling to you. I cannot thank you enough.

On Neo

I found this site at age 9, when my friend in elementary school told me about it. I played so much when I was little, participating in the Meridell vs. Darigan war. I played off and on for the past 10 years, but trubiekatie is by far my most impressive account. This page just shows what I like to do on Neo.

Avatars

Ever since they released avatars for participation in the Meridell vs. Darigan war, I have been collecting. Mind you, back then, avatars were released so frequently. I even had Petpetsitter and Freaky Factory - I guess getting older didn't help with those two! I do consider myself an avid collector, since I am constantly trying to get more that I'm missing. You can see the ones I'm missing in my goals section.



Trophies

I actually didn't really 'try' for trophies until I met Greg and Surath. They had over 100 game trophies each, so it made me quite envious. After their awesome advice and help, I was able to get over 40 for myself. I honestly believe if they didn't motivate me, I'd have way less and I wouldn't be as knowledgable. I get most of my flash-game trophies on Reset Day (the 1st of every month).



Customization

I absolutely love trading NC and buying NP wearables for my pets. I got into customization as soon as I found out it existed and I have spent way too much on NC (I don't want to say). Since then, I've been trying to conserve how much NC I buy and limit it to items I really want. My favourite item that I own is my Altadorian Wig! I got it for a steal of 17 caps before inflation.



Aethia

I am in an awesome account improvement guild called Aethia, aptly named after the Battle Faerie. A small group of us work together in completing our goals through unique challenges that are tailored to each person's goals. I love how motivated people make me and everyone in the guild is fantastic.



Studio

I run a guild with Maryann and Rico called Studio. It's a great guild for site-makers trying to achieve their goals. We all help one another out through support and events. I've made so many great new friends from the guild. It's motivated me to be more productive and meet my site goals.



Running Sites

I love to run sites! I currently have 2 open: The Draik Realm (directory of UFA Draiks) and Oasis (button requests), with the hopes of launching Bijou, a jewel themed review site, by June of 2013. I previously ran The Drawing Board, a site geared at people working on their own pet characters.

Off Neo

Despite what my stalker bar says, I do actually have a life outside of Neo! Funny, eh? I know it seems crazy, but I try to balance the best of both worlds. This is more of the specific stuff that I do that you can read about.

The Hunger Games

Holy kau, I'm obsessed. I've seen the movie over 10 times, and counting. I bought a pocket watch necklace that represents the movie (it has an arrow and Peeta's pearl), I've read the books twice each, and counting.

I think my favourite scene is Finnick in his boxers, and Boggs reporting that if the team thought they were impressed, they had just seen Finnick is less-than-usual clothes. Without being too much of a spoiler, I cry every single time Katniss volunteers and Prim is screaming for her to come back and when Rue died. When Katniss gives the three finger gesture to District 11, I am absolutely hysterical. I think it's just such a moving scene and the music swells, and omg, it is just too sad.



television

True Blood Ironically, this is where my username trubiekatie comes from (Trubie's are hardcore True Blood fans!). I am OBSESSED with this show and the books! I am a big Eric/Sookie shipper, but could live without Sookie if Eric was around. He is easily the most complex, yet amazing character on the show (and he's so good looking to boot!). Plus, it's an HBO show, so anything goes, which makes it amazing to watch (plus, who doesn't love legitimate 1 hour long episodes?!).

Lost This show really threw me emotionally. I am a big Jack and Kate fan, but I'm also very hopelessly devoted to Charlie/Claire. I have never cried so much over a show. This could possibly be one of the greatest television shows to ever air.

Glee The music is absolutely stellar and I think I have over 300 songs by the cast on my iPod. I also was fortunate to see them live in concert (about 20 rows away to boot!) and they were awesomeL. My favourite song they've ever sung is "Somebody to Love" by Queen. It was the last song they sung live and I couldn't have been happier.



movies

Jurassic Park I love dinosaurs. And I love the actors in this movie. And I finally read the books my Michael Crichton. This movie is my favourite movie of all time. I can recite almost every line and I watch it all the time still. I don't care that I know what's going to happen, the dinosaurs and acting is superb. I love this movie.

Free Willy Who doesn't love a young kid trying to save an even more awesome orca whale? This movie is the epitome of my childhood. I tried to jump in the tank at Marineland to be with the orcas, I had shirts/stuffed animals, everything. I was obsessed. This movie still brings a smile to my face when I watch it.

Inception I think this movie is absolutely sick. It's so confusing, yet so well thought out. I am stunned by how crazy and awesome this movie is. Each character (especially Arthur and Eames) is perfect and the acting simply flawless. If you get lost, mail me and I'll sort you straight!

Current Family

This is my portal page for all my pets, with a brief checklist of what to do, their history/character, needed items and links to their lookups and/or petpages. Feel free to browse around!


Amorias (Ahh-more-ee-as)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpage
[ ] Petpetpet
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Amorias was my very first Draik, hatched July 15th, 2011. I painted her with my second FFQ (first which I used for the avatar) and she has gone through one character upheaval. Instead of being a regular plushie, she is now a socialite who's death sends her into a sideways dream, where she is seen as a plushie.
Lookup | Petpage


Cyphion (Cy-fee-on)

Checklist:

[ ] Paint
[ ] Petpet
[ ] Petpetpet
[ ] Customization
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Cyphion was an amazing gift from Laura, who despite of my lack of plans, let me adopt Cyphion to expand my Draik family! He will be painted Stealthy, should Stealthy Draiks ever be released!
Lookup | Petpage


Dividant (Divide-ant)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpetpet
[ ] 1+ BC Trophies
[ ] 1000 HSD

Dividant was my first morphed Draik and probably my favourite colour, besides Mereda. As my resident battledome pet, I am training her in the hopes she will one day be 1000HSD. Her character is a music box dancer, trapped in the darkness of the box, only to be freed with the crank of a key. She is loosely inspired by my former time as a competitive dancer (9 years, from age 6 to 14). Her name is an uncommon real word, meaning 'different' or 'distinct', which ties into her character.

She holds my portfolio!
Lookup | Petpage


Girex (Jeer-ex)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpage
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Girex was my first successful penny trade! I adore his nickname potential (Rex) and his character ties into this masculine name. Despite having stellar grades, an amazing social circle and almost uncanny athletic abilities, Rex is plagued by the problems within his home, frequently experiencing spells of depression. It's through his dreams with Remind and Nahara that he learns to adjust this problem.
Lookup | Petpage


Hiann (hi-anne)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Hiann was the first Draik I was able to trade for! I loved her name since it was extremely boyish, and fits perfectly with her character. She is a shapeshifter - with a twist. Instead of changing forms, she changes gender depending on her surroundings and present situation. She is based out of Shenkuu.

I haven't decided as of yet what to do with Hiann! I may do something with Cyphion, should Stealthy Draiks be released.
Lookup | Petpage


Katniss (Cat-niss)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpage
[ ] 4+ BC Trophies
[ ] Notable Neopet

Katniss is my second adopted Draik, thank you (x a million) to Kido. She is going to be based solely on the Hunger Games series, but with more detailed placed on her childhood. I've taken an angle that she was both born into her role as the rebel leader and given the best opportunity.

Katniss is currently undergoing a major revamp, in terms of her petpage and lookup. I am currently in the process of trying to re-do my lookup style and coding to have a better and more fluid design.
Lookup | Petpage


Kohena (Ko-n-ahh)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Kohena was the result of an extremely kind gift from my best neofriend Surath, who bought her paint brush, Draik egg and the foreground. Her character is still in the works (since she does not have a character petpage), but I wanted her to work in a garden. Doing what though, is still a thought. She will permanently hold The Draik Realm and will forever reside on turbulous, which has been deemed my Ladies account.

Her half-character is a girl forever trapped in a flower garden for punishment of a former crime she commit.

Lookup | Petpage


Mellra (Mel-rahh)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[-] Petpet
[ ] Petpetpet
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Mellra was my 20th birthday present from Surath!! Elise helped me with the name, which I think is stunning. I was so shocked, but so grateful to add another wonderful addition to my family. I have not decided on a quasi character yet, but she does host my button request site Oasis!
Lookup | Petpage


Mereda (Mere-ee-dahh)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] 1+ BC Trophy

Mereda was a wonderful Christmas gift from Ken. She is my siren character - luring men to fulfill her loneliness from a former lover gone astray. She appears to these men's desires, but converts them to her merpeople. When they are no longer of use, she casts them aside.

Her name is a play on the word 'mer', French for 'sea'.
Lookup | Petpage


Nahara (nah-harr-ahh)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpage
[ ] Petpetpet

Nahara is the first UC pet I ever was able to call my own, thank you kindly to my former best friend, Ken. When he quit, Nahara found home with me. He is a bustling, high-class lawyer with insomnia. His medication causes vivid dreams with an odd side effect.
Lookup | Petpage


Pradiva (Prahh-Dee-Vahh)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Petpage
[ ] 1+ BC Trophies

Pradiva was a character long in the works and finally hatched from the help of Amy! Her story follows as she makes the transition from the Gutters (the land of the impoverished) to the Lands (the area of the wealthy/beautiful) and as she changes from her innocent youthful self to a corrupt and deceptive woman.

Her character was refined for an application for a Draik, but ultimately I wasn't chosen. I need to update it with the new changes


Lookup | Petpage


Remind (Re-mind)

Checklist:
[ ] Lookup
[ ] Pet Spotlight
[ ] 4+ BC Trophies

Remind was the first pet I ever applied for and was chosen to adopt (thank you Chia!). Her initial character (which was based off Inception) was in the works for a while before I actually adopted her. This Inception idea has been cast aside and a more refined, original character has emerged (still pertaining to dreams and dreaming with other people however). The week of May 4th, 2012, Remind placed 1st in the Draik category of the Beauty Contest.
Lookup | Petpage


Scallay (Skal-ehh)

Checklist
[ ] Lookup
[ ] 1 BC Trophy

Scallay is my third Draik, hatched myself at the beginning of Draik deflation. Her character, which began as a pirate, is in turmoil, I'll admit. I want her to remain a pirate, but I'm not sure of the backstory. I was potentially thinking of her as a spirit that corrupts pirate souls aboard a special ship, but it's just an idea.

Scallay's name comes from the pirate word 'scallywag'. Her page hosts Oasis's button portfolio!

Aethia Stalking

Customization

These are all the customizations I've done over the years. It's probably one of my favourite aspects on the site and I'm always willing to help other people create their ideal look. If you need advice, just drop me a neomail and I'll help you out! To create these, I use Dress to Impress, an offsite clothing customizer. Drag images to the address bar for full size. Newest at the top!

Digital Art

Below you can see all my art I've done! It was done using Photoshop or on my iPad, using an app called Procreate. It takes on average 1-4 hours to finish an entire piece, depending on the detailing, shading and general colouring. I don't take requests or do art trades, sorry! I'm pretty swamped as it is - don't want you to wait for me! Some work was done for applications, but most are for my own pets. Drag images to the address bar for full size.

Graphics

Here is the collection of all the graphics I've ever done! They were done with either GIMP or Photoshop. Drag images to the address bar for full size.

Neofriends

Meet my absolute divine friends from Neo! Some no longer are around the site (the former), but that doesn't mean they haven't left an impression on my life. These people make me laugh, cry and have given me more than I can ever express in words. I've really made some friends for life on this site and I hope that I will be able to meet some of them in the real world! I love you all so much. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

current

anh

Anh is one of the people I just love. I want to go see her and hang out with her and just chill. Couldn't meet a more awesome person. Ironically, I was terrified of Anh. She is AMAZING at graphics and coding, I thought she was going to be mean. Turns out, she's even nicer than I ever could have imagined. I feel like we're old best friends, that's how tight I think we are! I know she is going to be a great friend and we'll stay close for a long while.

maryann

I feel like Maryann and I's friendship is the equivalent to twi-hards. Every time I see her, it's like we've just seen each other for the first time in weeks. Maryann is AMAZING. I have a hard time describing her because she is just so awesome. I simply love her to pieces. Also, she designs the most sensational cupcakes ever.

Rico

Rico is one of the nicest guys I know! His buttons are so perfect, it always makes me envious. I love getting the chance to talk to him because he's always great to be around.

fish

Fish and I have just recently become friends and she is AMAZING! She runs such awesome sites (Petticoat, Oolong and Velvet Underground) and she has one of the bubbliest personalities. She is simply adorable and always says the sweetest things that cheer me up. I feel like she's my partner in crime in running sites on Neo.

effie

Effie was one of the first TNPers I met on the chatting boards and she probably reinforced my idea to apply. She is so friendly and sweet, it's so refreshing to have someone who is constantly bubbly and cheery to talk to. I always look at her and just want to give her a big hug for how amazing she is!

kitty

Kitty is amazing. Like seriously amazing. She is the reason I am applying for TNP, so accepted or not, she will always mean a lot to me for getting myself motivated. Oh, did I mention how kind and hilarious she is? Well add that to the list of awesome things that Kitty embodies. I've never seen someone so dedicated to a guild, it's so nice to see.

Elise

Elise is honestly the sweetest! I love getting to talk with her and motivate each other to complete our Neo goals. She is super bubbly and caring - she is a wonderful friend.

jake

Jake is easily one the most skilled players I've seen on this site. His ability to restock left me angry sometimes. He also is so nice and philanthropic. He initiated TBGCC, which is where I met a lot of amazing people in my time. He never fails to give me a laugh, but he is also level headed, which I need. Never have I been so happy for someone to get their dream pet!

Jared

Jared is just amazing. Such a kind guy, yet HILARIOUS. He has awesome customization taste and I think that's one thing we never cease to talk about. I think we really do try to look out for each other and that's what I love about him. I feel like he's my younger brother, and it's such a nice feeling. He makes me so happy when I'm down.

emmy

Emmy and I really got to be close on the TNP boards and most notably, my first roleplay. I love how creative she is, driven and SO kind. She's the kind of girl you want to be friends with, because she just never does anything wrong. Emmy motivates me and I am so gr

lilia

Lilia is my lovely dear who is constantly flopping on me. She has breath taking art and I love her to pieces. She is so incredibly talented and creative, it makes me very envious. She's so sweet, I just love talking to her when I can!

sosu

Sosu is one of my friends I am consistently jealous of. He's so nice, and extremely talented. For someone not even techinically 'fluent' in English, it's outstanding. Perhaps you know him for his obsession with autumn and his amazing graphics. I know him for all of that and the amazingly kind person he is. Whenever I need some inspiration or guidance, he can always help me out.

winter

OMG this girl is amazing. We met, ironically, as I helped her with a petpage application, then we began to do some character work, then I discovered her and I aren't too different. She is that friend I go to for any problem, on here or offline. I love her to pieces and I really think of her has this sister I never had. She has always given me much needed character advice and a good laugh when I'm down.



former

surath

Surath intimidated me. He had an amazing account and was so well respected. I forced myself onto one of his Bilge Dice boards and I actually thought he was a lot older than me. Turns out he isn't older or scarier than I originally thought. Turns out, in fact, that I love him so much it hurts. I talk to him every single day. And I don't just mean a quick 'Hey, how are you?'. I'm talking 5-10 hours of non-stop chatting. I don't know how either of us find time to do school work in all honesty, but we both are okay. I think we've bettered each other, in all our time of chatting, and I will always love him for that. We help each other out, when we hit low points, and I couldn't survive without him. I don't think I can really put into words how I really feel about him. My life revolves around him. I'm sad when we have to sleep or the internet isn't working. I'm sad we don't live in the same country and I can't see him every day after school. I'm sad there is useless distance between us by which we had no choice. I'm sad I can't give this guy the hugs I want to give him when he says the kindest things to me or he's having a bad day. I think he's such an incredibly talented writer (actually, talented at almost everything, he just doesn't acknowledge it).

Surath, to me, is that person in your life that is a constant. He is always going to be my friend, whether he likes it or not. He's that guy I run to when I get 100% on a test or when I am crying my eyes out. I honestly cannot imagine my life without him. He's like breathing to me- so needed and vital to the enjoyment of my life. I know it sounds so mushy, but I honestly don't care. It's how I feel when I think of him. I've never been so happy to call someone my best friend in the world, despite the miles between us. We do our best to get around this. Surath, I love you so much. I think more than you know and more than I can say. I worry about you and care about you, when perhaps you forget this. Just know I'm always here for you, and I will be till the end of time.

ken

Ken, despite his super personable chatty nature, scared me when I first met him playing Keyquest. Then after a long period of not talking, we bonded over a bad moment in his life. Ever since, I have never felt so happy to call him one of my best friends. He is one of the first people I plan to meet in real life and I describe our friendship as hilarious Tyra emoticons and laughs. One of my fondest memories was trolling him with a fake RS. I cried I laughed so hard at his reactions. He is such an inspirational part of my life and always will be, despite his permasilence. He has given me so much (literally, if I tallied how much he is given me, many of you would throw up in disgust at his kindness), I will always be in debt to him. He has always been an amazing friend to me, so I hope that we can be friends for a long time. I love you so incredibly much Ken, forever and always.

greg

Greg used to REALLY intimidate me. He had one of the most impressive accounts I had ever seen on Neo. Then, he actually turned out to be this old, goofy softy who I've had such a great time befriending. I know he's not around anymore, but he always teased me about how emotional I got over this site and I have never laughed so hard with a guy. I love you tough guy.

blake

Blake and I have had some hilarious offsite moments together, but on Neo, he was nothing but kind and out going. I miss him quite a bit. We met chatting on a special kind of game board in the AC and we bonded immediately. He is such a great guy, he 's an amazing friend who I hope will one day see this.
