Enter curious stranger

#1 Post by Lilian »

Hey Unseen Ones,

Our tabletop group has broken up, that thing called Real Life is a mean master. So, here I am, looking for gaming partners.

Hope to start playing soon.

Welcome Lilian!
And well met!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

We welcome Curious and wayfaring strangers alike.

What was the table top game you played? Plenty of D&D editions played here and other fantasy games, Space genre games, a western cowboy shoot'em up, horror focused Cthulhu and much more. Sure you can find something to suit.

Welcome!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

Oh, what a welcoming commitee!

We mostly played D&D later editions, and dabbled into some Pathfinder 1, but I'm not really interested in that any more. I'd like to try new things, mostly without the concept of class. My focus right now is on Savage Worlds, Fate, Warrior Rogue & Mage, New World of Darkness, and Unisystem.

For classless I think currently we have Max's d6 games, several Traveller games, gurusql's Champions game, and my HarnMaster game. I probably missed something too.
