    I ended up meeting up with one guy last night for awhile at a local shop that I had no idea existed. It went really, really well. He seems fairly normal, for the most part and we ended up sitting down playing a game of Warhammer Quest with some other guys around, which was pretty damn fun. He...

    Didn't see this earlier. I'm not really wanting to "pretend" at all. It's just, back when I did consistently play mostly with close friends, we used to joke that the only two "alignments" that ever made sense to me were "Chaotic Jackass" and "Chronic Insane". Playing characters along those...

    That's another thing on my "To do" list. Try to setup time before my first session, preferably with the DM, to go over character creation guildelines, initial resources to read over before buying the book and to just have a chat with them to make sure there's no real conflict right out the gate...

    Ok, so for another direction of questions: Pathfinder has enough info around that I can get an idea of the system even though I don't own any books for it at the moment. But, I'm also looking around for groups for other games and such I'd like to find. So, for other DMs out there. How do you...

    Yeah, I'm mostly worried about fitting in, I suppose. Like I said, I've never really seriously played with complete strangers like this. I guess I'm initially worried about finding a group I inevitably wouldn't fit in with. Like, for example, finding a group and making an interesting backstory...

    Certainly planned on it. It's why, for the most part I'm being a little upfront on my "preferred" methods of play. I, for example, much prefer playing something like a Wizard as opposed to a Barbarian. I don't like anything too straight forward, really. But I definitely do plan on discussing...

    Is it really ok to, say, email the DM after a session or so and say things like "I'd like to fight some Drow". I just don't want to come off as some strange new guy in the group trying to change things or whatever. In my contacting of people, I've been pretty upfront that I'm now a rules...

    Joining a new group.

    So, I haven't played any pen and paper games for several years. Back when I did, it was almost exclusively with a group of friends and occasionally we added new people in. Well, we got older and all moved away and I drifted out of it. Now, I'm wanting to get back into it so I've been using...
