Hello everybody!

My brother first told me about this place, so I thought I'd give it a lurk. Seems like you have a really interesting group of people and I hope I can contribute.

About me? I've been playing D&D so long that my first boxed set came with 'chits' instead of dice. I'm usually the DM 'cuz no one else want to do it, but also because I enjoy world building and I love giving my players a thrill. My favorite moment as a DM is when I scared two novice players out of the dungeon just by describing the scent of death that wafted up the stairs from the second level ...

I may be unique here in that I loved 1e, loved 2e and now I love 3e/3.5e. And hell, I love role playing and political intrigue and I love dungeon crawls and combat. I just love the game.

And now my 12-year old son is hooked on the game, so I've done my part to help extend the hobby for another generation. Hooray for me!

Hello-

just found your site and I am impressed. Mostly early out I will watch but I will reply to all messages posted to me.

Here is some of my background

25+ years with D&D (I remember the "red-box" kit)
some time with GURPS, Top Secret, Avalon Hill, Ravenloft, many others

Currently building my own game world (again), massive and complex this is the part I enjoy

just stopped by to say HI! and Great site !!

D&D forever

Thanks for your warm welcome.
I'm a Greyhawk fan since the beginning, but I have an open mind and appreciate other role-playing worlds as well. The shelves of my library are filled with tomes and adventure-modules. I'm an avid reader and my hunger is as large as the first day I discovered D&D. I continue to develop the world of Greyhawk as I set out 25+ years ago. I'll try to help wherever I can and hope to find some interesting material on your excellent site. Keep up the good work!
Greetings.
 

An Official Hello

The whispered hope of re-contacting Steve Perry or his wife or any of the other players in that 14-month classic of shared mania during those insane, explosive weekends...

Why am I here?

I thought I'd washed my heart and mind of all RPG. I thought I was free, free to choose and free to grow, unencumbered by the precious burdens of Director/Moderator... but once on-site here I watched, astounded, amazed by my fingers' seeming will of their own, registering me and uploading my own drawing for Avatar, and typing this greeting to the staunch and creative among humankind... and the elf realms and dwarven kind...

It all rekindled when my boys reached school age, I guess. I shifted to "Earn MORE Money" mode and began copywriting and screenplays. A year ago I started getting Maestro moving, and now I await word from my lawyer-partner in Hong Kong, while negotiating with a Romanian director here in Bangkok and putting finishing touches to the 143 pages of screenplay based on the life of Corrado Feroci.

A faster development, a more creative interaction... yes, that is the lure of RPG for me. You've been in pickup games, even GOOD games, but did you ever PAY $10 a game for a twice-a-month campaign? for 14 months? That, my friends, was my entree into the world of dungeons and dragons and human-based mysteries solvable by teams of Player Characters, intent on developing their characters, their skills, their experience and The Plot.

As each session began, we started with a printed version of what happened LAST session, complete with drawings, to review and bring us up to where we are now. There's the cliff. Here are your fingernails. You're just hanging on.

What do you do NOW!
 

Hello everyone!

I am a new player to D&D. I have playing for about a year. My husband has been playing for years and finally talked me into playing a game. I am having a good time and I now share and understand my husband's "addiction".
