Call me Bridgette, I'm 25, she/they, and I'm a PhD student starting in the Fall. I'm a Pisces and INTJ, and I'm somewhere under the nonbinary and gender fluid flags. I'm asexual, so don't ask. But I'm single, romance-positive, and always very tired.
I've never been on a website like this, but a friend convinced me to join and I'm liking it so far. I guess eventually I'll get better at formatting posts, I've seen some really pretty formats.
I like minecraft (bedrock/switch) and art. I'm a writer, aspiring Mangaka, and an budding animatronicist. (Means I build little character robots in my bedroom lol). I'm also training to be a witch, and beginning my journay as a Mandalorian. I also do tabletop rpg, and am building a system with my best friend. I'm a self-proclaimed punk, storyteller, and vampire - I don't claim to be a "goth" because the subculture and the aesthetic are different things and one of them doesn't like the other. I'm alien to forum rp, and haven't done chat room rp for almost a decade, but I'm not opposed to trying something new. I just care about the story.
Favorite books are Ender's Game and Interview with the Vampire, followed by the Percy Jackson and Artemis Fowl series.

hey welcome to voltra! ^^
i joined earlier this year and have found the community here to be very friendly and welcoming :-)
animatronics sounds super cool and interesting, what kind of characters do you make? are they related to your phd at all?

Welcome!!! =v=
What kind of witchcraft are you getting into ?? Personally, I'm mostly an herbalist with a good amount of (amateur) divination mixed in !!
Also, I think animatronics are like, the coolest thing ever!! I'm not well versed in the history of them, but I sure do appreciate their aesthetic :D

@GodsandPunks: Heyo! Welcome to Voltra! It's always nice to have another ace face :]
@xvz: My first animatronic character is an Owl named Sidra! But currently i work with a little Lego fella named Legsby and he "helps me" with my research. My PhD is focusing on creating a more natural human-machine interface through animatronic characters.
@0v7: Thank you! I'm very very new to magic, so I haven't chosen a "field" yet, but I'm vary interested in sigil craft and garden magic! I've loved animatronics for as long as I can remember, its a goal of mine to work with Disney Imagineering to build animatronics for the theme parks!
@Lilykin: Yessssss! Ace love in this thread! 
@ChiffonOrange: Thank you so much!!
@Nephila: Thank you so much! Also I've seen your avatar elsewhere it looks so cool I love your aesthetic!!
@godsandpunks: Howdy.
Take it that some folks showed you around.

@godsandpunks: oo an owl?? how big is it? :0 owl size?

are you more interested in the hardware side of it or like the psyc side? (i mean or both!)
btw triple+ posting outside of the undercurrent forum is discouraged here i think ~
(double posting is ok though i think)

@xvz: ooof didn't realize, figured since i was my thread it wouldn't matter if i spammed and i wanted to pay everyone the respect of replying individually x'(
But yeah, ill try and post a picture of it tomorrow if i can find one! It was about 3ft tall, but that was mostly a sculpture out of craft foam. I focused more on the ability to make expressions, so it's head could rotate and it could "talk" and blink its eyes! I took a lot of inspiration from Jim Henson's design and puppeteering styles.
And thank you for the head's up! I kind'a love the avatar shop already haha <3

@godsandpunks: You've seen 3 feet Owls? :O
❄🌈 ❄ Underlying all our fears is a lack of trust in ourselves! ❄ 🌈
@GodsandPunks: welcome welcome welcome. So happy to have new people joining us. Glad you like things so far. I think it is awesome you are a Ph.D. student. I was working on my counseling degree, but have considered switching to a Ph.D in human and social services. I want to make a change in the world, and I want to help others to create the change they want to see in the world. I think there is so much we can all do to increase the positive vibrations and social standing within this chaotic world of ours.
I was looking over your art and I am amazed. You are quite talented in the visual arts. I especially loved your moon princess. There was something raw and haunting about it that I could relate to. Anyways, so glad you could join us. If you have any questions or would like to chat, feel free to hit me up :)

Have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry or invited a stranger to come inside?
