ProfessorTomoe
From Egs Mayhem
Revision as of 04:55, 14 December 2006
ProfessorTomoe is the online persona of a person who lives in Garland, Texas. A few people online know who he really is. Others just know him as "the Professor with the shadowy face."
ProfessorTomoe (a.k.a. "the Professor") got his start on Fark.com[1] and moved on from there to Keenspot and other forums. While he can still be found there and in the It's Walky!/Shortpacked forums, he posts mainly in the EGS and EGS Mayhem forums. He posts goofy one-liners, the occasional Hare-Brained Prediction, massively brain-damaging puns, and lots and lots of EGS-related avatars and fanart. A gallery of his attempts at avatars and fanart can be found here[2].
The Professor's online RP persona is based upon the Professor Tomoe character from the third season of the anime series Bishojo Senshi Sailor Moon ("Sailor Moon S"), but with a slightly different backstory (online character bio here[3]). The EGS Professor is nowhere near as evil as the original anime character, but he is just about as crazy.
The Professor currently runs the Waffle House #4741 RP.
The Seconding!
The Professor is also responsible for unleashing an unspeakable horror upon the EGS forum known as The Seconding!. This began with a post in an EGS forum thread[4]. It grew to become what some call a major irritant and what others call just plain weird. Songs have been written about it, and the Professor has built up an irregular comic strip[5] based on it, using scenes from El Goonish Shive. It even spawned a short-lived EGS Mayhem game[6].
