From New Jersey. Computer Programmer. No degrees. I currently play in five campaigns (2 homebrews and one Planescape using 3.5 rules, one homebrew using D20 modern, and one Marvel game set in Paragon City). Of those, I am the only female player in all but one. Oddly, it's the one I run that is the exception.I've been playing since roughly a year before 3E came out, though not for lack of trying. Back when I was 13 or 14, I found a copy of the old Fiend Folio at the local library and was so intrigued by all those stat blocks and descriptions that, when I found out it was a reference copy and not allowed for check out, I photocopied the whole darn thing to take home and read. Unfortunately, for many years, I was unable to find anyone in my area interested in playing.Finally, some 15 years later while at computer school, I purposely cultivated a friendship with an interesting fellow whom I overhead talking about his Dungeons and Dragons game, with the express purpose of slyly manipulating him into inviting me to play. Lucky for me, he did. So I married him. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I wouldn't qualify myself as a girly-girl, though I do love to shop (at my FLGS and Electronics Boutique) and one of my biggest priorities of late is to buy a larger purse (since with the Nintendo DS out and Sony's PSP on the way, I just won't have enough room in my current purse for both of them and my Gameboy SP, plus games for all three). I will admit to having a stuffed animal collection (of plush Cthulhus and other Lovecraftian beasts) and I thought Sleepless in Seattle was a great flick (if you like creepy stalker movies). So take from that what you will.</blockquote>
