53-year old veteran looking for his fix

#1 Post by rpg.veteran »

Hey, guys!

I've had my share of rpg experience since age 24, I've been away from the hobby quite a while, but now I'd like to get some gaming fun.

Welcome rpg.vet!
You look to be in the right place. FYI your first two posts are moderated. After a Mod approves your second post, you are good to game, PM and post without delay. Again welcome and well met!
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.

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.

Nah, I'm no soldier. I'm just a veteran of make-believe fights, against ogres, dragons, hive scum, and rampaging androids. :)
I'd probably drop unconscious at the first sight of blood, especially if it's mine.
