Could you imagine having her as a player in this AP? No one wanted to try that. So she was elected. |
Having played in a game with a history major, I can say that it would suck, a lot. Much better to have them run the game instead.
EDIT: I LOATHE TYPOS. |

| Yeah I know I wouldn't feel comfortable GMing Any Asian themed game. I don't know enough background to pull it off convincingly. |

Yeah it's the same way as me and Planescape. I have gone over that cannon so much, that I know TOO much about it, LOL. Probably why I can't let the setting go, even if it really hasn't been updated since 2E |

Oh I could. I just would not set it in any Japanese analog. Korean or Tibetan maybe. |

Sorry to hear that CJ. Well, you are done soon
Tuesday is a Fall gem here. Sunny, cool and breezy.
Despite being sick, I managed to get further along in my bookcase project. I am planning to get them painted tomorrow.
I also got a bit of writing in, now it is time to update my PbPs
Later! |

Congrats on the new gig! Sometimes a change is exactly what you need, and I hope the new job delivers.
Me, I met a new cartographer via Facebook yesterday. Figures, he's from Seattle.

A good cartographer is worth a sack of gold. Gratz! I follow a few on Facebook m'self. I love Alyssa Faden's work
Gad, I have to get something finished for a certain Butterfroggie. *sigh* deadlines...

Alyssa did some cool stuff for a Certain Seafaring Exploration book.
And she has an Even More Sekrit kobold project.
I hope we get to work with her a bunch.
And erm, yes, shuffling back to these deadlines of mine right over here.

Happy Wednesday everyone!
My homebrew PbP is running through the Ship of Fools module from TPK games. I am pretty stoked about it, as it is really entertaining, and has a really creepy vibe, perfect for my Lovecraftian-infused sea setting.
On a similar note, has anyone ever read Adrift on The Haunted Seas by William Hope Hodgson? He's an overlooked author of sea-based horror. Recommended highly.
Does anyone know of some other good sea-based adventures for a mid-level party? (5th to 6th?) PbP means I'll be running this one for a few more months, but I'll need something else to segue into afterwards. |
