Hello there!

#1 Post by Mister-Kent »

Hi Unseen Servant! My name is Kent. I've been RPing for slightly over 10 years now, and love forum games. I'm a big writer, but don't really care for modern narrative games (FATE and *World games namely, but I'd give them a chance!) vastly preferring old-school style systems. My favorite game of all time is Stars Without Number (and anything by Sine Nomine really), but also really like D&D--1st Ed. Advanced and the new 5th Edition are my favorites. I also like Call of Cthulhu (I have the 6th Edition) and some of the New World of Darkness titles.

Genre-wise, I prefer scifi, urban fantasty, horror, post-apocalypse or supers. I generally like fantasy, but only really love it when infused with much weirdness! Lamentations of the Flame Princess is great for this, and anything to do with Vornheim. Less Tolkein for me, more China Mieville.

I'm also a comic artist, and like to make little doodles of my characters, other peoples characters, and NPCs when I'm GMing.

I'm running 2 Stars Without Number games on other forums and plan on running a third someday (maybe here!) and am currently only playing in 2 games (5th Edition and Call of Cthulhu).

Here are some character portraits I've made this summer:

Welcome M-K!
We've got folks who have similar tastes to yours here. :D
Enjoy and hope to see you get a game going, or join a game, real soon!
Be well,
--Ron--
PS: nice art!
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.

I'm loving the Apocalypse World stuff (Monsterhearts!), but role playing is a lot of different things. As long as it is fun to you, then that's all that matters.

Welcome! Very nice art, Mister-Kent. That is a talent that I do not possess. I have a hard time drawing stick figures.
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.
