Ok, my new work and home life combined leave no room for me to play in a game.

Is anyone looking for a player for a game they are running?

I can play 1e, 2e, 3e, 3.5e or 4e...

I'm also open to playing in any format...though I admit I have a hard time with slow turn-around. I can try anything though!

Hope someone needs a player!

The Old Grey Box and AD&D for me!

If you were living in my area, I'd love to have another player. But I live in Pittsburgh and I'm guessing your far away, lol.

I infer online, play by post type thing looked for.
As such such can exist, however slow to reply certainly could be a problem.

"Small beings can have small wisdom," the dragon said. "And small wise beings are better than small fools. Listen: Wisdom is caring for afterwards."
"Caring for afterwards ...? Ker repeated this without understanding.
"After action, afterwards," the dragon said. "Choose the afterwards first, then the action. Fools choose action first."

I run a play by email campaign so again it would be a slow pace of play.
Uses my own customised 3.5/pf ruleset.
Loosely based in the forgotten realms but i am starting them with a campaign loosely based on The Night Below 2nd edition boxed set (i am completely rewriting it).

Always looking for new players (currently we have 4), but to be honest i think i would be a little intimidated by running an FR campaign for anyone that actually knows about the setting as im not particularly experienced as a DM and neither are most of the players, im holding their hand through most of it at the moment until they get a bit more familiar with rules and role play.

We all live in England so i envisage there would be quite a delay if you live in America but since its play by email i dont think it would matter.

Again you are more than welcome to play but you would have to promise to be nice.

Well met Dalor!

Gammel Krage has been on the outskirts of my campaign since I introduced him in Unicorn form some time ago. I'd really like your input as to what he would do when confronted with specific situations.

He's a brilliant character and has been creeping his way back into the picture of late, with the campaign finding itself in the forest east of Mistledale.

I suppose it would be a bit like roleplaying by proxy?

I'd love your input if it is ok to PM you?

Even if I play a grumpy old dwarf?

As for me knowing anything...just ask folks around here...they can confirm I don't really know much of anything at all.

I don't have to pretend to know nothing...I'm a ready made idgit all by my lonesome!

What do I do to play?

Grumpy dwarves are fine, obnoxious elves likewise okay, even psychotic minotaurs if you want (although it might make going into urban areas a problem)

Well first thing is you will probably need my version of the rules.
Then create a character.
Then play.

As i said before we are all relative novices and its a play by email that has evolved into a kind of "round robin". I describe the scene, everyone gets one reply then its my go again and it repeats ad infinitum.

We use google drive for maps and character sheets etc.

I think the best starting point is if you have an email address then i can send you over whatever you might need and we can discuss characters and how the rules work (shouldnt make much difference to play from normal 3.5/pf)

Im pretty flexible where characters are concerned, but i do make sure everything is balanced and try to fit the character story into the campaign story/background.

Starting level is 2 at the moment.
