As members, you are free to begin moving your RPs and whatever else you will want to. If you have questions or need help moving, please reach out to Red November, Shine, or Spire (you can usually find one of us down in the cbox)!

Welcome to the Flux!
We're a single-thread RPG/Creative Writing/Arts/hang out and chat forum! We welcome anything you've got to show us, from arts, crafts, graphics, sprites, to fanfic, original stories, novels, short stories, to RPGs, or if you just want to hang out and chat with us, you're more then welcome. We offer a variety of boards across the forum, so you're sure to find a place to fit in somewhere.
More of the lurker type? I'm sure you'll find some good browsing material! But please don't be a stranger, head down to find the source of that incessant clicking: The C-box. You're sure to find someone to chat with there!
The Flux was built by a former RPG-community, so expect lots of activity there. However, after we moved on from our last site we decided to expand.
We have a helpful, dedicated staff, ready and willing to answer questions, or offer help with whatever you need, whenever you need it.
So don't be shy, come on in, introduce yourself, and become a part of our laid-back community. But don't forget to look over the rules. |

Okay, each and every one of you guys has a forum name. Some awesome, some unique, some blatantly influenced by something else. In short, you got your idea from SOMEWHERE. So let's share.
Originally, I went by 'The Beast'. This was from 'oh hey, that thing is cool, it's BEAST!'. Yeah. I was 16. Shuddup.
Now, I'm going as Red November. This sounds cool, in my opinion. Where's it from? Well, surely you've heard of Blue October? Well, I lurve them, so I wanted a spin on it. After the beast was taken on some other site, I went with this. Now, any alternative names I have, they're all 'random color, random month'.
And it totally works.
What about you all?

Simply because it means butterfly and I was a great fan of the second Fatal Frame game and knowing that it has a beautiful remake just makes me so happy. I was 12! But before that I usually went with ichigo-shoujo which meant "strawberry girl".
WOW IM KAWAII DESU

Magnamon is badass. Was 10. Invented username "Magnamon X2". BEHOLD THE WORST USERNAME EVER! But then it changed to X2 and all this shit but I eventually got to Magna, which I kind of use for its original meaning now as opposed to the Digimon. It's not me being a total stuck up ass by having a username that means "great", but more something I'd like to achieve with my life.

I don't really thing there even is a reason behind this name, other than it makes me thinks of happiness and bubbles and rainbows and stars and bright lights and all other good things in life. I guess that's as good a reason as any q=
And Vanessa Amarosi, but that's an unfortunate consequence.

Most people assume it's from the final fantasy item, but actually it's from an old flash on newgrounds I've forgotten the name of. There was a character in there called Elixir, and I found the name so badass I adopted it. That's the story behind Elixir's mighty name.

Kunoji Ukyou was a favourite character of mine in Ranma 1/2, so I yoinked her surname. Lym, on the other hand, is the abbreviation of one of my very first RP characters, Lymthiltlay... whose name, in turn, I invented via reference to an IC dictionary. Don't ask me for the purported meaning, I've completely forgotten it by now.

My real name, Justin. It means "just" as in fair and the like. Then I remembered learning about Justinian in Global History, who was a Byzantine Emperor. So I adopted that as it's just a longer version of my name, and then went with the whole meaning of "just" and decided to use Justice for the second half. So there you go. Justinian Justice.
