Introduction

I like RPGs. D&D, WoD, L5R, RoS, GURPS, and any other pithy acronym one would care to add. I also just moved back to Boston after three years away and have no one to play RPGs with. I'm far more player than GM.

What genre do you like and dislike to play?

I'll try just about anything once.

What Role-Playing systems do you prefer to play or avoid?

I've played the standard: D&D, WoD, GURPS, CoC. Played some less popular ones: CthulhuTech, Kobolds Ate My Baby, Paranoia, All Flesh Must Be Eaten. I'd really like to play some Legend of the Five Rings, Shadowrun, Cyberpunk, or Riddle of Steel.

What kind of books or magazines do you like or dislike?

No answer yet

What TV Shows/Movies do you like or dislike?

No answer yet

What kind of Role-Player do you consider yourself to be?

Not much of a GM. I have great ideas and mediocre execution. As a player, I need only focus on one character in depth, however. I do very well with that. I make effective characters, but not the sort to make something too strong for the game.

    "Pat, that sounds fine. Not sure about Shooting Star; I don't have Champions of Valor, so I'll get on [cough] acquiring that. The +1 LA will be hampering, but can be bought off pretty soon."

    "He said rogue/sorcerer + spellwarp sniper. That translated in my mind to my gestalt notation as rogue//sorcerer/spellwarp sniper. But if he meant to put that all on one side of the gestalt, then no worries...."

    "I really don't like Flaws. In classless point systems, disadvantages and such work well. D&D just doesn't lend itself well to it. Point is, flaws are very one-dimensional. They're always either crippling or inconsequential...."

    "I actually deleted that comment. For some reason, I had thought it was Thursday. I'll be there around 7, if at all."

    "I like a healthy mix of the two, as just leaving appropriate loot seems heavy handed. Also, it involves a lot more planning on my part. Plus, the items that players find and decide to keep can be really surprising and fun, in my experience...."

    "As to why we were mortalized, I rather like the idea of my God losing a serious bet with Jubilex on the nature of ooze vs solids, or somesuch. Oh, no no. You don't get to decide how you lost your godhood...."

    "Mmm. Tough question. Eberron's a neat setting, but a bit weird when it comes to gods. I don't think they've ever explained that, either, preferring to leave it a mystery. I'll need to give that some thought. Edit: Oh, right. Sorry, Christian...."

    Pathfinder (D&D-type game) in progress of being built up.

    "I would love to, were I not starting a game of my own. Also, if I didn't value my Saturdays. Good luck."
