    What was your first PC's name?

    Groman Lathea the King Thief. He was some gawd awful multiclass munchi monstrosity from 1980. Kept around as an not very interesting NPC in my homebrew. I still have a copy of the character. His most embarrassing claim to fame was he had the Artifact Johydee's mask. Live and learn.

    What is the oldest self-produced RPG material you still have?

    I have a copy of the uber munchkin character I made for my little brother in 81. Darryl Thunderbrow. Very cheesy. He had a helmet that let him cast lighting bolts and Heimdhal's horn!!!!

    Gladiator!

    I would take a look at Battletech's Solaris VII. Although its battletech stuff it does cover running a stable of gladiators. Same thing different technology level. I would also look at the last two issues of Dragons with the respective articles on honor and prestige point sysems.

    Single class campaign anyone?

    I have done it twice. Once, along time ago, it was an all "warrior" campaign. All PCs could only choose fighter, ranger or barbarian. It was a militaritic/mercenary campaign. Whent well but required much potion consumption and guest appreances from NPC priests pretty often. The second one was...

    Are you going to buy the Revised rulebooks?

    Yes. I'm a sucker for all things D&D and while I can ignore alot of supplements and setting type stuff, the hard core geek in me cannot ignore core books.

    [OT] Ben Stein and Evercrack

    This is a VERY true statement. Recent (and not so recent) research points to a VERY strong connection between addictive behavior and clinical depression. In fact, many substance abuse sufferers often relapse because of either a lack of diagnosis of the associated depression or lack of treatment.

    What are your all time favorite rpg games, and why?

    D&D in all its incarnations. Rifts (TMNT) - great setting lousy mechanics. Mechwarrior- incredible setting, terrible mechanics V&V - still THE benchmark for super-hero gaming IMHO. Bushido- was very different for its time. Traveller- THE Sci-FI game as far as I'm concerned. Vampire -...

    [OT] Writing!

    Right idea. Wrong execution. If you have this sort of mass ratio on her, wait until she is done writing her pages. Then knock her down and take them. :D

    Interesting and Creative Ways to Gen Ability Scores

    GM Rolls 30 ability scores using 4d6 drop lowest method. Writes them all down on pieces of paper. Puts them all in a hat. Each of the 5 players goes around the table and selects 1 piece of paper and writes it down in order (Str, Int, Wis, Dex, con, Cha). There you go. You could even through...

    [Extremely OT]: Engagement Rings

    Others have given very good advice here but I will echo the point of quality. QUALITY, QUALITY, Quality. My wife's engagment ring is just under a full karat but it is the highest quality diamond I could find/afford. She is also a very small woman and anything really big would have looked...

    (OT) I need some advice from the assembly

    This is just about as off topic as you can get but I need a venue to echo in. This past year has been a little rough for my wife and I. No different than other folks trials and tribulations, just ours. I won't get into the nitty gritty but suffice it to say my career has careened off a cliff...

    About the RPGA

    I have had nothing but lack luster experiences with the RPGA over the years. Thats fine, but when I go to the website to look into actually joining there is no info on how to do this??? They describe all the benefits and then don't tell you how to actually join?? More of the same I guess.

    'Origin' of Your User Name

    I discovered D&D about three years after I discovered Tolkien. So when I started to game with some older gamers back in 81 the DM gave me a character for my birthday. (hey I was 12, it was the bomb to me). ANy way the character was a High Elven rangerish type guy with an animal companion (the...
