I love playing paranoid characters. I am glad the fairy tale reference made you laugh. I figured their would had to have been some Kartakan bard's tale equivalent that he could have been referencing.Ail wrote:You sure made me laugh, BBQDBigBadQDaddy wrote: The smile vanishes from the corners of his mouth as he reassembles his pistol, loading one of the enchanted shots. He cleans up his cleaning kit, packing it away. Once done with that he moves his seat closer to the front door. 'All the better to hear you with my dear.' He remembered hearing that somewhere. For some reason he could not place it seemed relevant.You sure did!

Hey all, sorry for the late post. I am often guilty of relying on the email post notifications. That is something I definitely need to work on.

Yeah, Greg was one of the original players in what allegedly was the first gaming group ever, in the 1970s, back in Dave Arneson's basement.Ail wrote:Hmmm... Greg Svenson. That rings a bell. Is he a player of the original Blackmoor campaign, or am I totally mixing things up?
He has been playing with me and later with Steve since 2005 now, first in "The Grim Winter", my fairly-known Blackmoor PbP, and now in Andreas' Rahotep game.
You can check Greg's website here:
http://web.tampabay.rr.com/gsvenson/svenny.html
It contains some very cool stuff about first-generation D&D.
If you have other questions, best contact him directly, since Greg is an excellent and very friendly person, and surely won't bother to share a few details.
Yours,
Rafe
Well, to tell the truth, it would actually be an honour to play with your group. Problems is, I don't know the rules, I don't really feel like learning them thoroughly and I wouldn't be able to make a character. If there were one pre-rolled or something such, and if the frequency of posting were something like what I'm used to here, I might yet join.
Is it OD&D you are playing? Or AD&D 1st Ed?

Yeah, I'm rather happy too. It was a surprise even for me :-ptarlyn wrote:Updated thread btw. FYI I like how Lucius and Deari are getting along! Who knew there'd be romance in my game, huh? Well done guys, and nice posts.
