With Great Description...

Jul 15, 2005 07:31

I am a great man. I am the conquerer of much of the Known Universe, and probably much of the UnKnown Universe as well. I am a tall figure, dressed in a jet-black high-collared robe which hangs tot he floor on one side and is buttoned tightly up to my throat on the other. I have a pale complexion, high cheekbones and a small and very precise goatee. I usually stand about, rarely sitting unless I feel the empiric need to do so. My very stance is Imperial; I can frighten you all with the very lifting of one eyebrow. I am a tyrant among tyrants; a cruel galactic leader who has murdered billions in my never-ending and inadequately explained quest for total galactic domination. I...

...am Emperor Zhark.

And if this were a book, a new chapter would have to begin right here.

With my one paragraph of due explanation over, you now know who I am. I am from Handley Paige's Emperor Zhark science-fiction novels, but I spend a good deal of my time serving in the ranks of Jurisfiction. I certainly hope there are other generally evil leaders here that I can spend time with, although I'm quite keen on meeting normal people as well. It seems they're often more interesting than the megalomaniacs.

As for the icon I have...my typist thought it was quite humorous. I don't. I don't particularly understand why she's in conniptions on the floor, but I suppose if it makes her happy.

So! Would anyone here care to introduce themselves or other people to me? It does get a little boring on the giant spacecrafts and in the Jurisfiction halls.

Typist: To clear things up, Handley Paige doesn't exist. Nor do the Emperor Zhark novels, really. All of this and Jurisfiction actually come from Jasper Fforde's Thursday Next books, namely 'The Well of Lost Plots' and 'Something Rotten'. Now back to my conniptions...
