The GF in the Game

[mhacdebhandia]

One tiny example is you accept your books be written in feminist hogwash instead of in English. It is disturbing...

Wow. It's like . . . it's like you think this has something - anything - to do with the topic at hand!

Amazing.

I've been trying to get my girlfriend to play for months now without much success. But soon, very soon I will succeed,

 

[Arrgh! Mark!]

The only favor my fiancee gets is a cuddle if I hideously slaughter her character. Those Age of Worms adventures are deadly.

I try to avoid favor by looking at characters and having 10 minutes or so where each character shines brightly. It makes everyone have something to congratulate themselves about, basically.

A fighter with great cleave will slaughter a bunch of 4 hit point lackeys. A swashbuckler will duel with another swashbuckler while swinging from chandeliers on the roof. A cleric/paladin will explore corruption within his church and interact with his deities code of behaviour. A monk will chase people across rooftops and a rogue will have things to do that only his skill list can accomplish.

If I work with it like that I avoid blatant favoritism basically. Overall theres been only a little tension with another couple who were fighting at the time, but it wasn't really an issue.

Is it me or is the biggest problem a DM could have is a gf or significant other as a player?

Biggest?

Not unless baby got back...

/me wanders off to the dulcet tunes of MC Mix-A-Lot

Is it just me or did it get sexy in here?

Our game always has room for more players!
