Hi all, new player here - visited the web site a large number of times but never registered before.

DM of a few systems for too many years, and player of many more systems for just as many years. I remember the original AD&D 1e players handbook.

*sheesh*

Hello all!

Obligatory Intro Post

Hi. Been a member for some time, but always as just a lurker. Hope to change that soon :) .

Got into D&D simply because between the nerd status of me and the nerd status of my friends, I was gonna have to learn how to play at some time, and I've been hooked ever since my first game.

I'm 18, Northern California resident, and am either going to go into Law Enforcement or Sound Engineering. I know, I know, dont tell me...

Hello, I am new here

Hi there! This is my first post on this forum. I used to be a regular at a different site, but decided to create my own. I am here shamelessly self-promoting--but don't worry, I'm not a hit-and-run spammer. I plan on participating here, but using my own page to showcase my own work. Please take a look at my new page here:

http://gullyborg.typepad.com/dungeons_dragons/

So far there is only one new item, a prestige class I thought up for Dwarves that blends arcane magic with deadly axe-wielding skill. I hope it is useful for somebody. If you have any constructive criticism, please feel free to post in the comments section there.

Thank you! And you'll be hearing more from me,

Who is Lady_Aleena

Children gather round for I have a tale to tell.

Back when the web was still only used by really geeky people at colleges and universities there was telnet. Telnet was where the students and a few others, computer geeks outside of the schools, would gather to spend their time. I was one of the latter.

I was a user of various BBSs on telnet mostly ISCA, Brinta, and Monolith. On some of these BBSs, there were rooms where one could use aliases to post anonymously. Three of my anonymous names were Alexana, Eileen, and Olara.

Now, I also play AD&D 2nd Edition. I have been playing AD&D for the past 12 years. During that time I have created a great many characters, and they all needed names. For two of my characters, I took the names that I used on the BBSs to name them. They became Alexana Olara and Eileen Olara.

These two characters had become two of my favorites. Since they were twins, I could not decide which name to pick, though Olara was a choice, I really didn't like it that much.

How do I choose between Alexana and Eileen. Then the solution hit me. Al-leen-na. To make it more impressive and to specify my gender, I added Lady.

That is how Lady_Aleena was born.

On other places I have tried other names such as Lady_Aerianna and I did use Lady_Olara once, but Lady_Aleena is the one that I like the best.
 

New here to. Hope that my search for knowledge has come to an end now that i arrived at this blessed destination
 

So this is the famous EN World, eh? :-)

Hi.

I'm new around here. I started playing RPGs in 1980 with the Erol Otus decorated D&D Basic Set. I soaked D&D up like a sponge; first to the Expert Set, then to AD&D, then AD&D 2E. For years I snickered at other games. That is until my D&D-playing group of friends dissolved, and I hooked up with a BRP/GURPS playing group. We pretty much played lots of GURPS, several variations of the BRP system (Call of Cthulhu, RuneQuest, etc.), and even some homebrew amalgamations of the two. When 3E came out we played a pretty successful, year-long D&D game, but eventually we moved back to GURPS.

Lately, I've been reminiscing about D&D, and I'm working on starting another 3E game, which is what brings me here. (Yes, 3E. I know. But we already each own all the 3E corebooks, and no one is ready to plunk down the $$$ for 3.5.)

Anyway, I'm looking forward to what EN World has to offer!

Thanks,
Tim.
