I met my spouse in a 2003 campaign and he had also taken a Dwarf and became a troll-slayer. I started out aiming for a magic user of some kind and ended up as a soothsayer and fortune teller. That games’ character building and progression was wild. I think we played a demo of the 2nd Ed rules at our local game shop a few years later.

How can you say that about Emily? Ali Beardsley makes the GM cuss at least as often. :)

It’s not always bad when your GM says “Fuck you.” Sometimes we say it because you just skipped to the end of the mystery that was supposed to last a few more sessions, sometimes it’s because you use the spells I just gave you to kill my big-bad.

Mostly it’s beautiful, because you did something I wasn’t expecting and now I get to work around it in real time. It’s not truly a collaborative story until you are making my life as the narrator hard, otherwise I’m just telling you a story on rails.

I am in the final countdown of our Brindlewood Bay game that I’ve been GM for a little over a year. Next up is a Dark Age Mage game for that group.

The other night we are playing a version of Battle Bots with house rules after a couple of years of Shadowrun, originally on 1st Ed modified, later of homebrew simplifications.

We’ve also played Ultraviolet Grasslands, The Between, Blades in the Dark, and Dungeon World in the last couple of years, along with several house experiments.
