Hi guys! My name is Elodie, alias Rose Reaper, 23 and French. I love metal, Japan, cats, video games, TV series, tea, retro stuff, drawing, cute dresses and cosmetics. Concerning my career choices, I spent a long time searching what I would do in my life, then I worked a whole year as a hotel receptionist. I would like to do it again, and in the future be experienced enough to be a hotel director.

I started making let's play videos at the beginning of September last year. My confidence level was hardly above zero, and I had a difficult time learning how to talk while playing. I was pretty emotionless too. I wanted to make my commentaries in English in order to be understood by more people, but even if I studied it and could write it quite well I didn't have enough practise concerning my speech abilities. I eventually dropped making videos and picked it up again in the middle of June, just after the purchase of a new microphone. I'm more active than ever about it now and feel way more confident. I even came up with a concept for my YouTube channel, and had my partnership request with CreatorX accepted. My Geek Tea Party grows very slowly, but surely ;)

My games of predilection are survival horror and indie games. I record a facecam along with my commentary, so that everyone can see my ridiculous tears of fear while I'm playing x'D The first person who made me want to do this is PewDiePie, he's the first let's player I've ever watched, along with Brad from the 4PlayerPodcast. Now I'm more inspired by MarkPlier, Yamimash, RaedWulfGamer, and MangaMinx.

I joined this community because you guys seems to be interested in any kind of games, there's not only shitty Call of Duty and boring Minecraft everywhere like on other forums :) You enjoy what you're doing without worrying about subs, views, all those damn statistics. And that's a good thing for a change.

Let's stick to Rose Reaper. I mentioned my real name because people always end up asking me if Rose is my real name. Now you guys know everything ^^

Hey there RoseReaper. My name's Drew ~ It's nice to meet you! :) We're not into the same type of games, but I'll still give your channel a look.

This site is definitely a nice break from elitism and closed-mindedness so make sure you enjoy it! I hope to see you around. :)

Hi Rose Reaper, and welcome to the Sanctuary :)

It's always nice to hear that people found our community to be friendly and unconcerned about statistics, it's a feel we've tried hard to cultivate, and one of the main reasons the Sanctuary was formed. A central theme to the community is having fun, and inclusion, so you've come to the right place if that's something you're looking for. Not to mention there are quite a few tea fans here, in fact I'm enjoying my first cup of the morning right now, so welcome to the fold (honestly, I'm shocked DapperJester hasn't been in here already to press you for which brand of tea you drink, lol!) ;)

Your photoshop skills are fantastic by the way, I'm a GIMP fan myself, but certainly appreciate the effort you put into the look of your channel, and your English is very clear! I always enjoy it when more people who're second language English speakers join the community, as I like seeing how others are doing with using English in their LPs. There are enough of us these days it might be fun to start a topic related to issues and offering advice for people starting out (I know I had some issues when I started with tripping over my words, because playing games and talking at the same time was taking so much concentration I'd start to stumble while translating what I was thinking into English before saying it lol)


Once again, welcome to the community, and I hope you enjoy your stay :)

Aww thanks! I use Photoshop for a few years now, and the task is easier with the use of a tablet (I have the Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch, it's small but it's not the size that counts *that's what she said*). Concerning English I studied it at the university, so when I started I had a really good knowledge of the language in theory, but needed to practice my speech. It's better now thanks to my regular commentaries.

The tea I drink most of the time is from a French brand, Dammann Frères. I like almost every tea (green or black, but I prefer it loose) except mint tea, and I drink it without anything else inside, no sugar or milk ;)

I'm sure that I'm going to enjoy this community ^^
