Oh my lets see if I can cram a long story into something short
In the beginning there was only a large darkness that filled my life, I was a young 19 years old AD&D player that looked for more bits that could satisfy my hunger for even more interesting tibids for my all too adventure hungry players.
Then I found a site, a site dedicated to a 3e countadown.
This sparked my interest quite a lot and I started to search for even more information about this so called 3e.
I then trough a search found a place called Eric Noah's Unofficial 3rd edition news, blackness filled with letterings of gold that spoke to me about a bright future for the game I so dearly loved.
I then went to the messageboard of this master of the lore and registered the nick "DCD" and became a lurker that eagerly visited the site every day for my 3e fix and unofficial news.
Time passed and one day I finally registed my trademark on the messageboards, the trademark that I still use today and it is "Liquide". I then one day posted a Prestige Class called the Caledonian Highlander in what was the General Discussion of that time.
A man I have never met then approached and told me to post that Prestige Class in a diffrent forum so it could be better evaluated and maybe even used in his little project campaign setting called "Deamonforge". The mans name was and still is Russell "Morrus" Morrissey.
This Morrus and I then started to talk about this Prestige Class for some reason and for some reason I started to help him out with his little hobby project website called EN World and was back then found at
http://website.lineone.net/~morrus/ .
Then a logotype I did as a doodle with the text "EN World" tracing a blue planet was introduced to the site. And I started to build an automated reviews section for d20 products in April 2000 for this lad that I have started to know quite well by now.
A few more months passed and even a year and Russ started to build on something called the EN World d20 system awards, called the ENnies for short. I modelled some award images that CreativeMountain on this board printed out and framed and took to GenCon so the winners could have some physical evidence of the awards they had won.
And as people say the rest is history, since then I have been back and fourth helping out on the site but as it currently stands I have no active role in how the site is done anymore.
And finally I wanna give Russ a great thanks for continuing the legacy a grand man namned Eric Noah once started, and for giving me a chance to help out creating some parts of the site.
THANKS, from the bottom of my heart THANK YOU Russ and Eric.
