I have been playing various forms of table top rpgs for just over 6 years now. I started playing a weird amalgamation of B2:Keep on the Borderlands from basic DnD with characters made using a 3 and 3.5 character generator me and friend found online. After that first game I was hooked (somehow) so I began to do some online research and came across the OSR and retro clones. I grabbed up Labyrinth Lord and devoured the main book and the AEC. I started to DM for my 2 friends and we would play 2-3 times a week (high school was an amazing time). After high school my gaming sort of dropped off as I got involved in work. About a year after high school my younger brother introduced me to a friend of his that also played DnD. I quickly made friends with this guy and found out that he was playing in a Pathfinder campaign. A quick look of the rules online and I realized that these rules were similar to the character creation I had done so long ago. I joined this group and enjoyed a good long year of player time, occasionally running a game when the DM was busy or we only had a few players. While pathfinder was fun it wasn't the retro DnD that I thought myself how to play and DM, after some looking around I settled on 2e DnD, it had the harshness and descending armor class that I liked, and with the kits and skills my friends could make their characters the way they wanted.Right now I am currently living vicariously through 2 brand new DnD players that I introduced to 2e in an online game. After DMing for the last 3 years with very very few games as a player I have come here to find some PbP games that I can partake of as a player, and maybe I will start a PbP later.
Sorry for the long post, I hope to go adventuring with you guys and gals soon
I hope to join some games very shorty.
