Hello all

Hi everyone. I'm LexiconDevil72 and I'm looking forward to doing some role play with you fine folks. I'm a stay at home dad and a full time student, so the asynchronous nature of PBP is perfect for me. I'm that guy in my friend group that is always trying to get everyone to play games, and sadly, none of them are all that into it. So for that reason, and my schedule, I really haven't played a whole tone of TTRPGs. I HAVE tried to play with others, going so far as to learning some systems and reading up on some books so that I can teach others and learn myself, but it hasn't really worked out... yet.

So here I am. I once upon a time learned 5e, when it first came out, but mostly forgot. I like OSR games most. Things like Mork Borg, Mothership or Cairn. I also come from a writing background, so I've dabbled with some generic systems so I can world build around them. A bit of Savage Worlds and BRP. But I'm open to learning anything and am very much looking forward to flexing my atrophied social and creative muscles.

Talk to you soon.

Welcome Aboard!

PbP is great for asynchronous TTRPG play and especially good for players (and GMs) that like having the time to write well thought out Roleplay interactions.

Welcome LexiconDevil72! Bunch of writerly types here, too, getting our prose fix in gamified shenanigans.
