You know what goes here.

yup. we do. I am male, 48 and live in the UK. You?

I am male, 55 years old, and live in south Mississippi with my beautiful wife and three fur children named Wingnut, Lunar, and Salem. I have been gaming for 42 years, most of it as a GM. I started with the Holmes "blue book" edition and then graduated to the Molday basic set and AD&D thereafter. I have played every version of D&D and dozens (dare I say hundreds?) of other games besides. My current faves are Savage Worlds and Pathfinder 1E, but I can and do play just about everything under the sun.

yeah love Sa.Wo. done far too much D&D and now don't wanna touch it :-(

Looking at south mississippi, I found a city called Hattiesburg which has a park called Optimist Park. Is that where the portal is? ;-)

For lack of a better thought (and because it really won't matter much once we get underway), I've placed the portal in New York City's Central Park. Hattiesburg is a good guess, however, and is actually about 80 miles from where I live. I live as far south as you can go without getting your feet wet.

Wait... Central Park?
I feel like hundreds of people would wander through the portal if it exists for more than a matter of seconds.


..maybe that's part of the setting? Dealing with all the other randoms? Lol

ah.... actually been to Central Park.... so it all works for me ;-)
Never been to mississippi...... tried to go to Alabama instead.... but that never happened either :-P

Diamondhead? (I used to live in Birmingham - hence why i wanted to go to Birmingham Alabama. Now i live in Coventry)

played chess for hours at the chess kiosk in central park. is that where the portal is? :-P

That will work, sure.

Totally stupid question, but as I look at spending my $500 to determine what my guy has on him, I find myself wondering... what time of year is it in New York?

Let's go with early winter. More fun. Heh heh.

Dammit. Those winter coats in the book are stupid expensive. Lol

Hello all. Late comer joining the party. 50 yo Male from Ca USA.
I have mostly played D&D from the original on up but skipped 4th. I did a bunch of other games in high school but missed a couple decades for college and family. Started D&D5e a couple years ago and branched or to PbP last year and picked up Fate, and Tiny d6. Still getting through the swade system online as I don't have any of the books so am open to character an play tips

Welcome Psybermagi, happy to help.

I'm 41yo, male, wife and toddler. Started with DnD 2e and 3.5 in high school, moved on the Rifts and Deadlands Classic in college, took a 20 year break adulting, just got back into TTRPGs right before the pandemic with DnD 5e and SWADE, discovered PbP as an alternative, and have been on GamersPlane since.

So with a couple old school D&D players I have to ask, who would jumb into a gelatenous cube to get away from a diplacer beast? I laugh everytime I see the trailer for the new D&D movie with that sceen
