[QUOTE="Jeysie, post: 3486034, member: 51817"] This seems as good a thread to de-lurk in as any... I don't know if it's just because I RP solely on IRC at the moment, but I'd say that almost half the roleplayers I know personally are fellow women. My own D&D group currently has two guys and three gals. The two guys tend to alternate DMing duties, so the other fellow (and their character) ends up adventuring with us three ladies. *cackle* I admit I'm the stereotypical sort who prefers social interaction and skill monkeying to combat (the least of which reason being that my real life spatial sense is very lousy), but the other two gals love kicking in heads as much as anyone. In regards to the OP, I tried getting a friend of mine to play with my group back when we were roommates. He was a creative roleplayer, but never developed a very good grasp of the mechanics. I kept having to go over to his computer during his turn to point out the appropriate modifer to roll from his sheet. :p I also ended up doing most of the figuring whenever he had to make a character/level up (and he's actually better at math than I am!). He eventually had to bow out completely due to other commitments. Peace & Luv, Liz [/QUOTE]
