Hello, folks!

#1 Post by Meghatron »

My name's Meg and I've been playing tabletop RPG's since the mid '90s. I joined up with a group after a friend in high school got me into it, and have been regularly gaming with those people since! But then life hit, I met the love of my life and moved from MD to TX, and the whirlwind of distance, having to settle back into a routine for work and house upkeep, and trying to make a new friend group has thrown me out of the loop. Now PbP format fits my life better.

I've touched on old and new World of Darkness, D&D 2nd through 5th edition, Serenity's Coretex System, and dabbled in Shadowrun, Big Eyes Small Mouth, and Aberrant!

I'm looking forward to meeting you all and hopefully getting into a game or two.

Welcome Meg!
‘Tis a good place to be if you want to PbP!
As you may have noticed we have a two-post moderation policy. It keeps the spammers out. After your second approved post there is no further delay in posting, PMing and gaming.
Be well and be welcome!

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.

Thank you both for the warm welcome! I've been poking around here and there, lurking, and things look very interesting! The one good thing about adulting is I get to choose how I spend my free time (outside of pesty keeping up the house and not-so-pesty time spending with my pets and fam <3), and PbP fits neatly into the time I spend online. I'm looking forward to finding something!

And Unseen Servant is the option for PbP!

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.
