Hello!

#1 Post by slgarrett »

Hi There!

I'm Sarah. I've been playing B/X and AD&D since forever. I strongly favor 1e and B/X over subsequent editions, although I enjoy Labyrinth Lord a great deal too. I love playing dark sorceresses, servants of chaos and avenging anti-heroines, so DMs beware, I frequently play independent and unpredictable characters. I'm hoping to find a DM who enjoys such characters and possibly a darker tone of D&D than the usual "Tolkienesque" game.

Welcome to the Unseen Servant, Sarah!

We tend to have a significant number of games in the 1e/OSRIC and B/X/LL rule sets going on at any given time, so hopefully you can settle into a game or five soon!

We got some of those types of games here. Welcome and 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.

Hehe, more darkness indeed, we have a lot of.... for lack of a better term, light-side players here that need some balancing, (I won't name names, but myself). ;)

I play lighter characters too, but over time I've come to enjoy more complex characters. My favored alignment is Chaotic neutral. Depending on what happens, that might drift.

Thank you! Someone already PMed me about one that looks interesting. Unfortunately, I can't reply to discuss when I might be introduced to the game.

I think I have my eye on one. We'll see how that shapes up. From what I've seen I'm encouraged.
