Greetings!

#1 Post by Els »

Hey, everybody!

Glad I found this forum, seems like a cool place to roleplay. I've been obsessed with tabletop RPGs (especially older editions, like Classic Traveller, AD&D 1e, etc.) for about four or five years, though I've only ever played a handful of games. I don't know anyone that's interested, or that has the time to play where I live, and finding new members is challenging considering I live in a small town where the RPG "scene" is pretty much non-existent. So, to remedy this problem, I've decided to try out play-by-post as a method of getting me my Old School RPG fix.

Sorry about this not technically being my first post. I didn't notice that the introductions topic existed until now.

Hey Els,
Welcome! You are absolutely correct, this is a cool place to play!! :)
Since you have two approved posts, there should be no more delays in posting, PMing and playing in a game.
Enjoy!

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.
