    Costa Mesa / OC CA

    Me: Gen Xer. Moved to Socal from Michigan 3 years ago and haven't played D&D since. Used to play 3.5 with a really good, laid-back fun group of friends (all of whom met through our group). In my job here and with a 2-year old, though, I just cannot make it to a weekly game, and probably would...

    CA - South Orange County - D&D

    I am new to southern california. Live in Costa Mesa. I'd be interested in starting a new gaming group. I am like minded. I played 1 and 2 when I was younger. Got back into it a few years ago and discovered the world of 3e, only to find 3.5e as soon as I had figured out the new rules. I...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Cyrus is anxious to be a part of all of this, but not so anxious that he won't take whatever time is necessary to read every word and to ask questions about each and everything he doesn't understand. Assuming he does not uncover any deal-breakers, Cyrus signs the documents and adds, "I, too...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    "I'm in. Can we start today?" Cyrus blurts out. Later, qustions about medical insurance, flexibility to undertake his PhD studies in the fall, and what exactly is the consequence if one happens to say something to a family member would cross his mind. But for now, it was an emotional...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    As usual. Cyrus arrives a couple of minutes early. He sits in his car, parked along the street, reliving the events from two nights ago. There is no questioning the adrenaline rush and the actual thrill that long outlived the natural chemical high. Yes! I want to do this. As he sees a...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Being something of an introvert, Cyrus is not ready to jump right into some organization he knows nothing about. At the same time, he is conscious of how much he misses the comraderie of the Michigan track team and how, since he has been in Chicago, he misses even the social outlet of his D&D...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Cops? I knew this would happen. I'm screwed. As soon as the cops enter, Cyrus is immediately aware that he must hide his guns. Unless he is clearly in front of the cops, he will try to sneak into the nearest stacks and hide his guns behind some books.

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    The sold hit on the skeleton felt good in Cyrus' hands. To good to stop. He swings again with the chair/club.

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Seen or unseen, Cyrus grabs a chair like the others, and comes up behind skeletal dude, trying to flank him with Cade and Diego. With all his strength, he swings the chair at skeletal dude, screaming, "What are you, you Freak! Take that!" OOC Attack Roll +1 Str +2 Flanking (1d20+1+2=21)...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Damn, I know what they're doing, but surely the gunfire was doing more damage than the "chair attacks". Realizing the futility of firing into this melee, Cyrus attempts to sneak around behind the skeletal freak, holster his weapons, and also attack with a chair or heavy book or whatever else is...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Cyrus fires two more rounds hoping, at least, to provide some cover for Cade and Nick. .44 Magnum attack (1d20+3-2=17) .44 Magnum damage (2d8=7) 9mm attack (1d20+3-2=13) 9mm damage (if it hits) (2d6=10)

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Cyrus doesn't think twice; with pistols still in hand he opens fire with both weapons. I've got to get my wits around me and settle down when I take these shots. He takes a 5' step back and takes a deep breath, readying for his next shot. OOC Initiative (1d20+3=21) .44 Magnum Attack...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Did I do that? Did I just shoot another human being? But he would have killed me! And wait, I wasn't the only one to shoot. Larry I can understand, but who is this other dude shooting at pony-tail guy? Cyrus looks around, worried that everyone is staring at him. When he sees that he isn't...

    OOC Assuming that Cyrus was mid-way between the restroom and the reference room. Already on edge about the second murder, Cyrus whips around when he hears the gunfire, and, seeing the pony-tailed man he assumes to be a killer, Cyrus withdraws his weapons, and fires up at pony-tailed guy. He...

    Dark*Matter: Discovery, the Beginning

    Cyrus leaves the credit cards but makes a mental note of the fat guy's name. If there is any blood on his hands, he takes care to wash off all visible signs. He then leaves the restroom and heads to the meeting room, looking for friendly faces. As he exits, he checks to see if anyone notices him.
