Hey there everybody!


After much searching, I've found a forum that does play by post and has a good reputation. I only hope that I'm not eaten alive after three posts, but we will see!


I go by Cyngi. I've been a pen and paper player for a wee four years, and I prefer the role of DM to the role of player, though both are fun in their own right. My preference for game is 5e for its simplicity, but I have experience with both it and pathfinder, and am open to learning other systems.

Now for the major caveat:

I HAVE MADE MY OWN WORLD. I AM THE RULER OF MY OWN DOMAIN.

I've been working on the place ever since I started gaming, and my race dynamic is standard with a dash of odd. The same is true with a lot of other things, but that really leads to the question I want to pose to anybody who reads this thread. How willing are you to learn and act in a player made world, with a new character creation, in a chain that could potentially last years?

I've always been a very long term player, and while I don't have much of anything logged digitally I am going to be making a few google documents going over the finer points of what I deem necessary. I'm a very improvisational, story focused GM. My goal is to make you feel important, but not invincible,


My introduction is really more of a dipstick in the general feel of this forum. Being brand new, I want to suss out what I'm in for.


Thanks in advance to anybody who gives this the time of day!

This one looks tasty....

Erhm! I mean, welcome! There's games of all sorts here, some in established settings, some homemade, and from what I see everyone gets along nicely. What sort of setting did you make?

A very good question. My setting is a mish-mash of quite a few classical RPG ideas, with some of my own stuff thrown in. Think if Middle Earth, Tamriel, Azeroth, whatever the Witcher's world's name is, and quite a few others woven into something entirely different, then injected one by one with ideas I thought to be neat. All intents and purposes, swords and horses, but it has enough weird angles to not really fit totally there.

There is a lot of home brew games going on. Everything from minor tweaks to classes right up to complete new systems. I am sure you will find players
