Well, I first officially started roleplaying in middle school, except it was on myspace, a little after the whole myspace thing started to die down and facebook was becoming popular.
I needed to make the account under a roleplay name so people wouldn't know my real identity and I felt more comfortable roleplaying with people who knew nothing about me.
So, right then and there, I made my first OC. Riku Kaida.
I only ended up only friending one person I knew in real life but I was uncomfortable telling her it was me that she was roleplaying with, so for awhile, my friend roleplayed with the girl known as Riku Kaida :3
She soon figured out it was me >___<
Then my life started to take a turn for the worse and my mental stability crashed o~o
It was a significant dot on my timeline.
I had quit roleplaying but found myself naming characters on my games "Riku" (Like on pokemon and such.) and using that alias in my writings.
Then, as I jumped over that rough hurdle in my life, I returned to roleplaying. I didn't have any OC's during my comeback but the name Riku Kaida was still in the back of my brain files.
So I started out creating her, giving her an image, giving her personality, and giving her some credit in my writing. She developed into my now one and only official OC, Riku Kaida.
Of course, I get bored of having the same girl for every roleplay, so I just use the name for a different character on the roleplays here on CS.
I've come to love the name and love my OC. I like being identified by Riku by people who don't know me, especially on here.
So now, I use that name for multiple sites and characters. All because of that one account on myspace with only one friend on the friends list.
Long, but true story :3
