How are you this evening DM?

Hi Mycanid. Did you go mushroom hunting at dark thirty this morning?

No, no, no, no.

"The night is my delight....
So the nightingale....
I love to sing in the night....
So, so-o the nightingale.
So-o-o-o, so - o the nightingale."

Tell me ... what is an NCO? A ____ Commanding Officer?

You got into DnD through a ... ?!



Ma'am ... you are an absolute riot! Now THERE'S a "how I got into the game" story. FOr me it was just some friends down the block were playing when my family moved to Syracuse. Simple as that.

Tell me, if I may. What were some of the things you liked best about the game then, and even now? In other words - WHY do you think it "hooked you? What in particular?

NCO is a "Non-Commissioned Officer"

At the gime I guess I loved the fact that a woman could be this powerful hero and do all these great things. I never really had a groth spurt all of a sudden. I was always taller than most people I knew yet I was always told what a woman could and could not do. "Girls cant do this" and "Girls should do that" drove me to find thing where I was equal. LAter in life as I got more confident and self-assured I grew out of that need. Throughout the years is has been many things to me. Sometimes it has been my "escape" from the real world, other times I was dissappointed with things I did or choices I made and it became my way to be the strong or moral person that I wasnt in real life. Mostly though it has been social for me. I am an odd person. I am a very tall, very sarcastic woman but at the gaming table no one cares. Sometimes I love the attention I get for being a woman gamer because we are rare.

Wait a minute... Isn't this "Camptown Races"?

Very true my good lady ... very true. Lady Gamers ARE rare.

But thank you ... that is EXACTLY the sort of answer I was hoping for.

Weird Al's Albuquerque song.

It's called The Ladys Delight and is a lovely album ... if you like old Western European music, that is. I do.
