Note From Grand:

Greetings, WPC!

My name is Grand Tybiss. You may refer to me as either Grand or Grandie in an informal chat setting. I am currently an administrator of NGOG (Noble Guardians of Ga 'Hoole), a roleplay website (established on the Wetpaint platform) based off of the acclaimed Guardians of Ga 'Hoole series. Feel free to contact me if you wish to discuss our administrative policies on NGOG (Noble Guardians of Ga 'Hoole), NGOG's offshoot sites (NGOG: Parliament Home/ NGOG: The Evening Hoot), or if you would like to report inappropriate behavior/ commentary, or instances of vandalism/ spamming on one of my websites.

Here is some general information about myself...
I am nineteen years old, an aspiring sci fi/ fantasy novelist, a volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center, and a freshman undergraduate at IUPUC (Indiana University -Purdue University) in Columbus, Indiana. Biology (B.A.) is my intended major, and I seek to specialize in ornithology, wildlife management, or some other science-based field, with a minor in creative writing. I have two (possibly three) book series in queue: Serador (sci fi/ action/ horror) and Avion (fantasy/ adventure). I am an advocate of bird/ wildlife conservation, so do not come bragging to me about your latest hunting expedition. It will not be an animal's carcass that I imagine roasting in the crockpot, but rather it will be something (or someone) else.

I live near a lakeside in a three-story house, with a hand-crafted, blown-glass birdfeeder on the back deck, where I commune with the local birdlife (in my own incongruous fashion) on a daily basis. My heart is borne on wings of joy, as I recognize each familiar, feathered face: black-capped chickadee, american robin, european starling, house sparrow, barn swallow, northern cardinal, blue jay, purple finch, tufted titmouse, white-breasted nuthatch, brown thrasher, killdeer, bobwhite, house wren, common grackle, mourning dove, red-headed woodpecker, american crow, ruby-throated hummingbord, and in some cases... wild turkey, peregrine falcon, turkey vulture, belted kingfisher, blue heron, and eastern bluebird. Once upon a time... bald eagles roamed the skies in my locality!

I am fond of taking brisk walks/ hikes in the mid-afternoon, trekking through the woodlands marking nest-sites and photographing birds on the wing. At twilight, when the woods are enveloped in a spell-binding stillness, the air becomes cold and crisp, and the stars begin to paint themselves across the night-sky... the swingset is my favorite hang-out!
