I m a girl get over it

See, so you have a good character for any PbP around here, in Midnight druids are PrC, you could only get them after a good time of game, and that makes it all the more special.

I have the book and it just does not make a good job, it is mostly rules, makes me feel cheated, sure rules are nice, but we have plenty of them. I think you are more than qualified to start playing a game and if you happen to want to learn the rules, get yourself over the SRD over here and learn it.

I am sure in sometime we will see your signature carrying a game link.

Masters of the Wild is a bit outdated, although a good book. You may want to look at Complete Divine or Complete Adventurer and races of the wild has some great stuff on elves.

I have looked in Divine and Adventurer as I love to read up on the prestige classes. Im CG alignment and being a druid I cannot find many classes that offer a road to go down. Blighters are the only predominant progression for druids but they are evil!

ooh who is Dragongirl? Shee has a cooler name than me anyway

She used to be a fairly prolific poster here, but disappeared about 2 years ago, although maybe she took a new name.

Druids are the most powerful of all the D&D classes, so I do not think a lot of prestige classes get made for them and most tend to make them weaker.

Ahh that would make sense thanks

I think I will carry this female gaming discussion into the AtS.org Midnight boards too, let me see what people there think.

I haven't been much aroudn to, but didn't Djeta had a bf or husband around here too? Isn't Buttercup a girl too?

I was thinking more of the male gamers just talking loudly, competing for attention, and ignoring the female gamer.

Sure, but part of my point is that I think the reason that some men wind up ignoring the quiet female gamer is the same reason why they wind up ignoring the quiet male gamer. They expect "one of the guys" to just speak up and assert themselves and not have to be asked what they want to say or do. I was trying to contrast that with the deference that some other people here were talking about. Some women get used to deference from men and then get blindsided by being treated like one of the guys, either by being ignored or being talked to rudely.

I have no problem speaking out as I am quiet strong minded and I value my own opnion although I don't impose it. I think in my experience if fellow male gamers tend to dismiss your opinions because your a girl even the most outspoken woman in the world would tend to keep quiet. I'm still hazy on all the rules so I feel my opinion may be held back until I was certain what I was contributing had some clout behind it.

I frankly can't believe that male gamers would be so rude and unwelcoming, since all the male gamers I know would be ecstatic to have more females join the hobby.

As for the posts, you're even ahead of my 31ish PPD. Keep it up and you'll be the new Crothian soon enough!

I don't think most women are used to deference, but I do think they are used to respect and attention when they speak, that is not something unusual at my table and if it happens that people talk while one speaks, I call their attention and they know they made a bad move.

Since I gave some english classes last year, not much of a difference from a class and a D&D group, you need to show them what they are there for.
