Welcome, sorry for the delay! :)
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.

Wow! Thanks all! This is my first real foray into pbp. My friend Marullus is interested in getting our tabletop group into play by post so we can game even more! I'm an osr and indie-rpg guy, and I'm looking forward to exploring the narrative and descriptive elements that posting will allow, if that makes sense? I appreciate the warm welcome!

Ah cool. I'm in one of Marullus's PbP here (Bushido that he took over running from me after I realized I just didn't have enough knowledge of the genre to run it) and I played in his earlier Burning Wheel PbP.

It's hard to explain puns to kleptomaniacs because they always take things literally.

Welcome!
On November 2nd I will 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.
