Lo, the lowly Monk approacheth...

#1 Post by monk »

Hi All,

I just joined the board a few days ago after finally deciding to try this pbp thing out. I started playing B/X in the old days, spent some time on 2e in the nineties, then took a long break from gaming. Came to my senses a few years ago and started up a Lab Lord campaign with some good friends who'd never played a tabletop rpg before. We're still going, at least 3 times a month, slaying slime monsters and smoking magical hookahs (in game) in my garage.

Turns out I can't get enough, though, and so the recent impulse to join a pbp. I'd love to try out an OD&D dungeon crawl, or Carcosa, or just some good ol' fashion b/x. I imagine I can post fairly often, since I'm around a computer most of the day.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome!

Welcome monk! As you see, tis a good place to play!
I don't have a face to face game (except with my two oldest daughters) so PbP is how I get my fix. With the occasional G+ of Skype game. But I'm glad you joined us!
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.
