I Kissed A Nerd shirt!


Where is Dorkington? It's a special place inside the heart of anyone who ever rolled a d20, sold their plasma to buy a replica Captain America shield, or spent every weekend cheering "HUZZAH!" at the Renaissance Festival. A place where geek is the new cool, and all are welcome.

Within the ivy-covered walls of Dorkington University live three nerdalicious cheerleaders and one dude in a dress. The Damsels are Dorkington's pep squad, glee club, drama queens and sports team, sent to bring you joy, love, and cartwheeling comedy fireballs. Prepare for thy face to be most mightily rocked.
Danielle

Danielle is thrilled to call DU her home. After twelve years of community theatre and four years on the Ren faire circut she is now delighted to be attending the dorkiest University in existance. She knew Dorkington was the place for her after she was turned down by many Ivy League schools for being "too dorky" (This may or may not have been the catalyst for her commital to Arkum Asylum for a month or four).

She is now DU's Assistant Librarian (mainly because she rarely leaves the library and sleeps in a desk drawer there), and a proud member of the cheer squad. Her major is Star Warsian Philosophy with a minor in the Geographical studies of Middle Earth. Despite speculation that she has hobbit lineage, she is actually 1/64th leprechaun. In her spare time Danielle enjoys volunteering as a cuttlefish rehabilitator at the local invertebrate shelter and dining at the Restaurant at the End of the University.
Rissy

Rissy writes most of the Damsels' material: songs, cheers, plays, the Necronomicon, etc. When asked where she gets her ideas from, she'll tell you that her inspiration is "life," but in truth she is the Mouth of Sauron (who, unknown to most, also takes the form of Zombie Velociraptor Shakespeare) sent to Earth to spread madness. And by "madness," we mean "comedy." She's been funny ever since she came out of the womb, staring. Her color is red, in honor of the Lidless Eye.

At Dorkington U, she is double-majoring in Useless Trivia and Molecular Biosciences, and TAs the following classes: Shakespeare 002, Mad Science 101, Comic Book Physics 800, and Why You Should Listen to Me Talk Endlessly About Mitochondria 317. In her efforts to win the coveted Triple Nerd Score award, she also plays the sousaphone for the Marching Platypodes Chess Team/Band, as well as cheering for the Lady 'Podes pep squad. She flails uncontrollably when excited and is easily excited.
Blythe

Blythe has been performing in one form or another since she was 2 years old. Her performances began with dance and eventually moved into years of musical theatre training and experience including (but not limited to!) touring Japan with the wildly successful musical Carrie 3: Aunt Flo's Revenge.

Blythe is attending Dorkington University and majoring in Xbox Studies with an emphasis on Halo. She is also the captain of the DU cheerleading squad (Go 'Podes!) and a member of the Glee Club. In her free time, she enjoys tutoring for dead languages such as HTML, and working as a volunteer zombiefighter.
Jeff

Jeff was marked for greatness at an early age when he pulled an enchanted black T-shirt from a comic store discount bin. It read "Whosoever pulleth out this shirt from these other shirts is rightwise King, born of England." Of course, we can only assume his great destiny lies asleep within him as he has since spent his time gaming and training for the Zombie Apocalypse, which made him the perfect choice to run the DU campus Anti-Undead Security Team.

He is the Assistant Coach of the Dorkington Mathletics team, president of the A/V club, and resident pwn3r of n00bz. The Black Lantern Corps offered him one of their rings, but his deep loathing of the shambling undead made him turn them down. As the lone male on the Dorkington pep squad he is often called upon to lift things and wear women's clothing. He likes to refer to himself as "The Yell Leader of Many Colours and of None," but most people on campus call him "that dude in a dress."
