Kudos for Ilmarinen

From the Greek word meaning "glory," a kudos is acclaim for exceptional achievement or qualities.

On the RP repository, receiving a kudos means that another community member recommends you as someone other people might like to get to know. Perhaps because you are exceptionally fun to RP with, exceptionally fun to know, or are just plain exceptional!

  • Inspiring artist, excellent writer, and an absolutely fantastic leader in this wonderful community. In groups and site wide events, I've witnessed Ilmarinen extend a helping hand and warm welcomes. Ilmarinen's creativity and passion really brings life to this site, from the adorable pet rocks and other artistic contributions, to helpful advice and community support.

  • Kudos to Ilmarinen, a hardworking mod of RP Repository! Giving some appreciation for all you do to keep the site safe and running smoothly! Thank you for looking out for us! Kind and understanding Helpful - Dawnia

  • Heimarinen is an ENIGMA! How does one have this much talent and creativity inside their brain at any given time?! I am continuously amazed by all of the cool things that they can do, and how well they do each of them! I really love how easygoing they are, and how comfortable it is to strike up a convo with them. If not for Ilmarinen's guidance, I don't know where I'd be in several aspects of mod life and human-ing. But they are always there to offer feedback, suggestions and help when I need it. Helpful Great sense of humor - Mina

  • Ilmarinen is like, easily one of the coolest, most creative people I know. Someday... one day... I will get my hands on their coveted leather acorn pouch. Like, man. Digital art, leatherworking, designs. They can do it all! And on top of that, they're such an awesome moderator to work with. They bring a level head and lots of insight to the table, and I really appreciate that about them. Helpful Creative ideas - Auberon

  • Ilmarinen did an INCREDIBLE job with the Pet Rocks!! They're so cute, adorable, and a huge hit with all of RPR! Wonderful job and amazing art as always!! Great sense of humor Creative ideas - CelestinaGrey

  • Ilmarinen is so cool! They helped me with a full plate by recommending a vet for my doggo when I didn't have any more spoons for inquiry calls. The moment they took to help me really meant a lot. They are a true joy to chat with and are the type of person who is immediately friendly. I felt like I'd known them forever and I love just chattering away at them. They have a kind heart, a friendly manner, and a true knack for providing the help you need, even when you don't know what kind yourself! Helpful Great sense of humor - Mina

  • It was a great Halloween thread, which was hosted by Ilmarinen. Their character, Marle was nice to interact too. I was a great pleasure to see, when our characters turned out to have a common interest. Kind and understanding Wonderful writer - AgateTurtle

  • I remain perpetually impressed by Ilmarinen's fantastic artistic skills, whether that is leatherworking, illustrations, or designing characters. What they put out is exquisite and always of the highest quality, and I strongly recommend checking out their stuff and considering commissioning them! Kind and understanding Creative ideas - Sanne

  • I'm not sure if I've given them kudos or such before, but I'm an admirer of Ilmarinen's work on the site, and I have been for a while! Their moderation seems excellent, they're very kind, and their riddles are delightful. I was really happy to see them a lot during Epic Week, this year and last year!! The name Heimdall was cool but Ilmarinen is also extremely cool so I'll look forward to reminding myself Lol
    Thanks for the hard work! Kind and understanding Creative ideas - Shinyrainbowlithogra

  • I am so grateful I've gotten to know Heimdall. It is always fun to write with them and if I get my way we'll have more stories together very soon. Their characters are fascinating, vibrant and emotionally resonant. Beyond writing they are encouraging, helpful, skilled in so many different forms of art it's a bit ridiculous. I simply can't say enough about this person so I shall sum it all up by saying 'Thank you for being my friend!' Kind and understanding Creative ideas - Dndmama

  • Heim has always felt like the older sibling that I can and have looked-up to. They're really creative and you can rely on them. I have known Heim for years and participated in the communities they've made, their art is stunning, their leatherwork is something to dream of -- I am in awe of Heim on a regular basis. Thank you dragunn. <3 Hurrr (That's dragon for 'i adore you') Helpful Great sense of humor - Cass

  • Heimdall is one of the great dragon guardians of RPR, and legendary enough that most probably know that's not just a fluffy description. Like most dragons, Heimdall can be a bit reclusive (or rather, busy with a whole lot of being awesome in various ways), and experiencing their presence is no less marvelous for it. Amazing characters, engaging writing, a wonderful touch of wisdom... and a very relaxed manner and sense of humor that eases off the intimidation of how cool they are. Creative ideas Wonderful writer - Zelphyr

  • Heimdall and the hard work they've put in over the years will always be an enormous part of my roleplay history. While we don't play together anymore, Heim knows that they are always welcome in my circles and I'd be eager for any opportunity to write with them again. They've left their impression on so many players and settings that the effects continue to ripple today. I doubt any world built by long time Furcadia players would be the same had Heimdall not been around (a terrible universe). Helpful Wonderful writer - Tar

  • Heimdall is a creative force of nature! Whether it's digital painting, pixels, or leather work, they've got you covered. I love seeing all the wonderful things that they bring to life with their assorted creative skills. As a moderator, they are also an amazing asset to the team. Hard working and eternally kind, I love having the chance to work with them! Helpful Creative ideas - Auberon

  • Without Heim, I never would have made Yveridia, which was a *wonderful* memory in my time at Furc. They helped so much with DS and dreamweaving, and though Yveridia is long since dead, I look back fondly on my time pestering poor Heim with questions. They also do amazing art and have amazing characters. Heim is a person with a heart of gold and is worth getting to know!! Kind and understanding Helpful - BlackberryFae

  • I admired Heimdall for many, many years, at least a decade or longer! Their exquisite dreamweaving on Furcadia inspired me to make my own dreams and get into pixel art. I look forward to seeing what more they create in the future! Creative ideas Wonderful writer - Avelithe

  • I've crossed paths with Heimdall a good few times during my time on RPR, and each time has been an absolute pleasure. In particular, I simply adore their character Sivwikkas because... well... they're adorable (and so creative)! Heimdall is a fantastic writer, and their characters have a lot of... well... character! Sometimes I can be absolutely blown away by how quirky they can be! I can honestly say that it's my opinion that Heimdall is one of the best RPers on this site.

  • I met up with at least two of Heimdall's characters during Halloween. Both were fun to interact with. One was as a host to a scene, the other was as a participant in my own thread. The writing is well done and easy to read and has great response time with replies. I would love to work together again in the future! Wonderful writer Fast responses - AgentMilkshake

  • Ramsay (played by Ilmarinen)
    So, I adore this character. I love the concept (and the pun behind it). Plus, from the brief IC interaction I had with him through the Trick-or-Treat event, he just seems to be a really nice guy. (Also, caramel apples and Zelda references are an instant win in my books ;3)
    And, although I've never personally talked to the writer behind the character, they seem to be a lovely person, and they are also quite a talented writer. - Anonymous

  • Heimdall is one of the best people on the site. I've only interacted when I sent mod reports, but they are kind and considerate. I just wanted to share my appreciation and gratitude for such a wonderful mod. Kind and understanding Helpful - Raspberry_Beret
