Hi!! My name is Ivan, and as you have most likely guessed I'm kinda new here. I'm seventeen, if you're curious. I've actually never used a forum style site before (although I did spend a few years on an obscure wiki at one point) so I'm a little nervous about figuring out where things go and what buttons to click. I'm a fast learner, I promise, so please be patient with me!
I found this site through a link on tumblr. my tumblr is @jupiteradepts.tumblr.com if you're curious about it, by the way, since that's where I am most of the time. I hope to be pretty active here since this seems like a really cool place!
My name has been Ivan since long before I heard of GoldenSun, so it's total coincidence, I promise. Curiously enough, though, I somewhat resemble Ivan in appearance, my zodiac sign is a wind element, and I relate to his actions, so I pretty much treat him as the game version of the actual me, aheh. I also relate to Atalanta, because I, too, like appearing in the sky at request and shooting everything in sight with magic green arrows. You could call it a pastime.
I really like talking about characters from GoldenSun getting into various funny situations (for instance, my friend that got me into GS and I have a running joke about Procne deciding Piers is a snack and subsequently chasing him around) and sometimes I make intentionally bad photo edits to go along with these scenarios. I'm not sure how interested in that anyone here will be, but if you're curious I can definitely link ya.
I've played the first game and am currently working on The Lost Age!
I hope this wasn't too rambly. To tell the truth, even though this seems like a friendly place, I'm a little scared just jumping in like this. I really do hope to make friends here!

Welcome Ivan! Nice to have you here!

Don't worry, this place is awesome! And do not feel scared, just be happy conversing here and you will feel at home right away!!

Have you only played the first Golden Sun? If so, I am interested to read your impression about Dark Dawn! You sure have heard, DD is considered the black ship in the trilogy but it is by far not a bad a game, I enjoyed it! But I consider it weaker than The Lost Age.

About those funny situations, post them yes! Anything Golden Sun related is always welcomed!!! :laugh:

Jumping in without regard is the best way to join! ^_^ Nice to meet you, Lanta!
(confession: I chronically mispell Atalanta as Atlanta, so using 'Lanta might be partially selfish!)
If you have any questions about the forum or how the site works, don't hesitate to ask. People should largely be welcoming, though definitely expect a few in-jokes to appear.

There's definitely a few Tumblr users here, so I'm sure they can introduce themselves with those names as well if they want!

I too feel a deep identification with Saturos... except my personality is like a 180 from his, I just thought he was the coolest thing ever back then. Now I'm older and wiser, and I know he's the coolest thing ever. 8D

I hope you're enjoying The Lost Age! ^__^ Where are you in the game now?

Are those photo edits posted on your Tumblr? =o

Thanks so much to everyone for the welcomes!! I'm really excited :D

@isaac3000 I actually don't know much about dark dawn! I can't emulate it, so I won't be able to play it for a while. What I do know is that everyone seems to have gotten het married and I can't see Mia or Ivan as straight in any way so it bugs me, but that's personal headcanons and nothing I'm genuinely upset about lmao

@saturos aa i see! Then from this point forward I will consider you the real Saturos C:< I love TLA so far and I feel it has a lot more depth and detail than the original GS character-wise, which I greatly appreciate. I'm in Yallam right now!
The photo edits are on my tumblr, yep!! all the procne related inside jokes are at jupiteradepts.tumblr.com/tagged/procne-memes and a lot of my golden sun headcanons and other art is at jupiteradepts.tumblr.com/tagged/gs . yo'll have to dig pretty deep to find any art in the gs tag though, aheh

Enjoy The Lost Age! It's my favorite of the series. It's been 5+ years since I've played it though. At one time I identified with Jenna, but I've changed quite a bit and I'm not sure if I still do.

Sound the horn and call the cry: "How many of them can we make die?"

Hey there!

Personally I do think DD is the weakest of the series, but I still don't think it's a bad game. Just played it a little too safe, didn't take enough risks with trying out new stuff.

Yeah, Dark Dawn sank a lot of ships... kind of? I mean, the protagonist is apparently Isaac and Jenna's child, but Isaac is living with Garet with no sign of Jenna, so... shippers going to ship, regardless. xP
There's no confirmation as to who Ivan, Garet, or Mia even romanced, so the current state of that's up in the air. =P There's always bisexuality.

Yes! I definitely felt TLA had more depth as well, so I'm glad you noticed the same. There's lots more to find out from where you're at, so I hope you enjoy it! I wish I could experience it for the first time again. xD

@saturos Ah true!! I HC Ivan as trans like me, so that means... Anything is possible, pfft.
I'm sure I will enjoy it, and I'll keep you guys updated on what I think, for sure!! I love the series so far c:

Jenna offered to be the surrogate for Isaac and Garet's child. Isaac donated the sperm. Jenna and Ivan's daughter is Karis. Meanwhile, Tyrell is the son of Garet and the Wise One.

Also, hi! I'm over on Tumblr too (meganekko-meguca) although I don't spend a ton of time in the GS tag. My more standard name is Dracobolt, so you may have run across some of my stuff before. Anyway, welcome! If you need any helping figuring this place out, feel free to drop me a line. ^_^

Hi again! Glad you are figuring things out with the forum format. It can get a little confusing with all the subforums and stuff, but it's not too bad. The most active boards are pretty easy to find!
