Introduction

[Tadanori Oyama]

I accept this assault on my mortal center as proof. Now excuse me while I make quick Degeneration roll.

Rolling 4d10:

(8+4+3+1): Total = 16

[Phelanar]

I find this to be sufficient proof. For now.

[Tadanori Oyama]

Hey, I managed to retain my current Morality score.

It also occurs to me I never introduced myself.

My name's Peter, I'm 24, a Deist, live in Washington State, and I've been gaming since 2000. D&D is my big game currently, my favorite rules system is New World of Darkness, and I've played (at various time) Mutants and Masterminds, Star Wars Saga Edition, Dark Heresy, Old World of Darkness, and Call of Cthulhu.

I'm the one in a group of gamers who's totally outside all of the drama between players and doesn't get why people can't just play the game and have fun. I've had one gaming group turn into two groups because of drama and then watched those two mutant into forms unresembling of their original state.

I hate gamer drama.

I think I need to roll my sanity:

Rolling 1d100:

(94): Total = 94

[Maze]

Fail. 

[Tadanori Oyama]

You knew the risks when you took the job.

I think I need to roll my sanity:

<img src="http://slangdesign.com/forums/Themes/default/images/dice.gif" alt="" />Rolling 1d100: <div style="background-color: #919191;">(4): Total = 4 </div>

Ah, you lost 4 SAN. You're fine.

[Maze]

I think that puts me at -3.

Quoting the dice rolls doesn't really work, as you can see, Ross.

no one tells me these things. The dice roller is an unofficial hack so lemme see if I can jury rig some better code or something.

Rolls for Computer Use skill check.

Rolling 1d20:

(16): Total = 16

[Tadanori Oyama]

Making an untrained Computer Use check? You walk a dangerous line, sir.

[clockworkjoe]

Making an untrained Computer Use check? You walk a dangerous line, sir.

SIR I WILL HAVE YOU KNOW I AM TRAINED IN COMPUTER USE. YOU HAVE OFFENDED MY HONOR AND I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL.  ROLL FOR INITIATIVE.

Rolling 1d20:

(5): Total = 5

[Tadanori Oyama]

So be it. I warn you, sir, I have the crushing body flop of a life long fat man.

Rolling 1d20:

(7): Total = 7

[Tadanori Oyama]

Ha! I have the speed o a 2-liter of flat diet soda. The first action is mine!

I open with the At-Will strike, "Tired Meme!"



Rolling 1d20:

(7): Total = 7

Eye rolling damage...
Rolling 1d6+1:

(2)+1: Total = 3

Name's Vince.
I'm from Detroit and I've been a gamer since . . . well . . . umm. . .

Well, the first rpg book I evr had was the AD&D 2e Monster Manual.  I got it for Christmas sometime in the mid to late '80's.  I didn't even know how it was really supposed to be used.  But it really helped me with ideas and inspiration for my drawing.  The first adventure I got was Baltron's Beacon for 2e AD&D.

Today, I love gaming but it's hard for me to join a group.  I don't have a car anymore and all of my friends have moved out of Detroit. My favorite system to run is Call of Cthulhu (Chaosium - I just wish they'd stop coming out with new editions so often).

I guess I draw a lot of inspiration from zombie and ghost flicks.  A guy on the Red Spire Press Forums once told me: "horror is 95% threat and 5% conflict".

I hope to enjoy my tme here.  Great to meet everyone.

Good thing about Call of Cthulhu is that the rules haven't changed much - the newer editions are just reprints with a few bits or art.
