Hello, my fellow Paranaturalists, and thank you for reading my introduction right now! You'll probably regret it soon enough considering I've got a tendency to go on and on and on and on and on with this stuff, but I hope you can get through it all to the good stuff! Trust me, there's some!

(If you guys just want to skip to the TL;DR Version below, I'm not stopping you. Go on! You can do it! No? You sure? Well, alright, you asked for it...)

To begin with, I'm a writer of young adult, fantasy/adventure novels where kids get superpowers and save the world from evil beings - hence one of the thousand reasons I love the comic that makes up this community. I even gave myself some abilities in these Carus... tales and other stories, where I'm a Celestial Knight, guardian of the universe's purity and goodness with my light manipulating, Energy shielding, portal-into-unreal-realities creating, Auric Armor- Look, this goes on for whole forums of big-headed self-served Gary Stu-ing, so I'll just say my fan-adapted spectral powers are gold energy spec-shots and control over wind with my flying disc tool. This information can be found on my User page at the Paranatural Wiki.

What was that? Oh, I didn't mention the Wiki thing? Well, let's get you educated to the current situation, shall we?

Yes, the world of Paranatural already has a Wiki, which was created by Founder Gvurzhit (frequently absent for reasons) and pointed out by Paranaturalist in its own forum about a month ago. Recently, however, I've become it's first Admin, and I'm set on making the site the would-be, to-go spot on the Paranatural map over summer! But it's a lot of work to do by yourself and not really as fun, so I'm using this introduction to tell you guys that WE NEED YOUR HELP.

If you've got useful skills to bring to the table, be it patrolling grammar to adding interesting trivia you noticed, to making pictures transparent where they need to be or even seeing into the mystical world of coding and understanding 1% of it all, you can help make a difference for the entire fandom! Even if you think we're being too fast with this stuff and will only help when we've got more things to talk about, you can stop by the official blog I put up for just this occasion and say "Hi!" so we can keep an eye on you! It's commenting on a site, for crying out loud - it's not exactly alien to you guys, right?

Even if that's not your cup of smiling tea, you can at least tell me what to do down below to improve your visits of this place. It's in the beginning stages, remember, so we know a lot of character pages are missing and better navigation and color schemes are needed. As an example, I was thinking of adding quotes atop each character page, so you can throw in your fiddy cents on what their most famous lines are.

So what do you fellow spectrals say? Are ya with me?

TL;DR Version = 'Sup, I'm Carus, I've got a Wikia, anyone in? *include Paranatural reference here*

With regards to the fandom,
- Carus E. Lumen,
Celestial Knight LV3, the Creator (y2000), and aspiring artist/producer/young adult/fantasy writer.
(AKA Clay Lampley, Spectral & Tool Owner)

P.S. If you think I should move the last two-thirds of this topic to the Pnat Chat, I'll do so readily, but I really would like some friends here, so still take into account the info I gave out!

Nice to meet cha,

(whistles) That's a long intro

Yeah, I warned you about long intros, bro!!!! I told- No, wait, I promised myself no Homestuck quotes on my secondary fandom!

But seriously, thanks for being the first to reply to this, and it's nice to meet cha, too.

Hey dude! Welcome! Like I said in the other thread, I've never been particularly fond of Wikia... The only Wikia wiki I actually like is Digimon Wiki hahaha. However, you seem like nice, cool person to work with, and Paranatural is currently my favorite webcomic, so alright then, I'll help out! Spelling and grammar is my forte, followed by attention to minuscule details, so I got you covered there. One thing, though: I've never actually contributed anything to any Wikia wiki, ever, so you kinda have to show me the ropes first tee hee

But did you promise yourself anything about sbahj quotes? Something tells me you left it out...
Anyways, if you wanna really get in to the general forum thing, you should check out the games club! All the cool people hang out there. By which I mean I hang out there. I'm the cool guy here.

Welcome to the forums, you magnificent bastard.

Welcome to the forums man
I will gladly help contribute and edit articles here. Wikis have been very helpful for me, so now I will help in return.
The only complaint I'd have to say is the bright purple font is hard to read on that background. Other than that it's looking good so far.

Oooohhhh, a Wikia! I would like to help, but I don't have the slightest idea where to start...

Oh, and Hi!
