threading preferences: Not fussy at all. My only solid preference is that I like writing in present tense.
threading habits: I'm in PST and my tagging tends to be off and on. I'm currently working on having a few threads that I tag at least once a day, but my life is kind of insane. Some days I end up working 10 hours and don't have the energy to tag, but I do my best and especially try to keep plot-relevant threads going at least once a day.
about you: I live in BC, Canada, I have a two-year-old basset hound named Mr. Darcy, and I recently started work as a Medical Office Admin!

character
name: Dr. Rodney McKay
age: a lady never tells 39
occupation: king nerd Chief of Science, Perimeter Guard Wall R&D Unit
residence: Floor 13, Room 1; with his castmate John Sheppard
about: rodney in riverview; Rodney is an arrogant, abrasive, neurotic, socially-awkward genius. While he does actually care about people, he's not very good at showing it, and he's much better with tech and computers and theoretical physics than he is at people. Afraid of tight spaces and being eaten by whales; allergic to about a dozen things; sleeps on a prescription mattress; talks and eats when he's nervous.

what aspect of the game you are most interested in with this character: exploration/city expansion with a side of slice-of-life, especially found family!!!!!
what plans you have for this character: With his job on the Wall R&D Unit and his field experience, he's in a great position to start looking into some exploration and missions. He's going to be throwing himself into work to stave off the inevitable nervous breakdown he's going to have as soon as he stops to think about all the stuff he's been through in Atlantis, so expect some hare-brained schemes to do the impossible.
shipping/smut preferences: HAHAHAHAHA WHO WOULD DATE THIS CREATURE??? I'd love some short-term dating or crushes because I'm a shipper at heart, but it isn't my focus for Rodney.

what your character wants: to do stuff as cool as he could at home except also to be able to publish papers and get recognized for it, a team of fellow geniuses to work with that he can rely on, making a mark on the city in some way, to stay busy
what your character needs: all of the above plus developing some more found family, people he can trust who he can have rare moments of emotional vulnerability with and who will support him while he inevitably has a mental breakdown

I really really really want him to find a team to work with both in the lab and the field. Preferably people who don't mind being called by the wrong name sometimes.
