    Just how popular was DnD? Did kids really play it during lunch? (red box nostalgia)

    1983, sixth grade. Practically the entire class (girls excluded) would play D&D everyday during break and lunch. The craze only lasted for the sixth grade year as far as I remember though - only one or two of us played after that. Of course the coolest was the kid who could already grow a...

    Georgia: Dublin, Sandersville, Swainsboro area

    I never thought I would see a thread in here looking for Dublin area gamers. I'm in Dublin and have been wanting to get back into tabletop gaming for a while now, but as you know the pickings are slim. I haven't played anything tabletop for a while now but in the past I have played 1e and 2e...

    [4e] Risen OOC (Full)

    Sorry for being out of the loop for a bit, we've been on a whirlwind road trip for the holidays. No worries about ending the game - I've come to the realization that playing pbp games is not for me anyway. Thanks though for setting this game up and letting us new people test the waters.

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    Mataken watches the elf drag the old man over behind a column. Hrm, seems he does more than talk... Sensing the wave of energy, Mataken grips his cudgel and moves over next to the elf and the old man. (Square K 18)

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    Mataken moves in next to Kragnor, a puzzled countenance on his face. He wracks his brain to try to recall the specifics of the ritual whose remnants are displayed on the plinth. (OOC: Religion Check (1d20+5=18))

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    The elf sure likes to talk... Mataken, uncharacteristically taking the lead in the matter of investigating the prone figure, realizes that no one seems to be following him. He stops, turns back toward the group of fellow rescuees, and fixes them with a scowl, waiting. A man, a dwarf, a...

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    "Whaa...here, hold on friend." Mataken leans over to help the prone figure remove his bindings, keeping one eye on the bear-like creature which has suddenly appeared. After helping the person to his feet, Mataken again points to the prone figure by the altar. "There. Come." He begins to...

    [4e] Risen OOC (Full)

    @KarinsDad: I know this is the internet and there is no door to slam when you leave a room all mad, but posting your farewell snipe in the IC thread seems cheap. I'm sure you still had this thread subscribed and/or bookmarked - no need to crap on the rest of the group's (delayed) fun. I'm...

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    They were in the boxes, like me. Don't think there's any threat here. Mataken leaves his spot against the wall and heads toward the person trying to push a sarcophagus to the floor. He clears his throat to announce his presence, at once realizing how silly that must have seemed, given the...

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    Keep calm, man. Slow breaths. Mataken feels better now that his back is not exposed - and he feels somewhat emboldened now that he has a weapon, of sorts. He has never had a need or use for stealth and creeping about, so he is sure that the others in the room are aware of him. Mataken wants to...

    [4e] Risen - Chapter I: Grave Danger (Full)

    What? Basakara...What is happening... Mataken is briefly distracted by the appearance of what seems to be the symbol of Basakara - but only briefly. He begins to free himself of his cloth constraints while slowly getting to his feet, when he notices other figures moving in the light cast from...

    [4e] New to PBP? Can't find a game? (Recruitment on hold)

    Agreed - I really like the flavor and setting. It reminds me somewhat of Richard Adams' "Shardik" novel. I'm waiting for the deity list/info before I finalize my character concept.

    [4e] New to PBP? Can't find a game? (Recruitment on hold)

    Answer the following: What sorts of regions and cultures are you guys interested in? I like a dark, low fantasy sort of world but am open to anything. Related: What real world or fictional places or peoples do you want to see flavoring the campaign world? Don't know. What are your favorite...
