The man nodded. "Names Corwin." He looked her over again and smiled so she wanted to control the conversation. He was almost tempted to let her do so, if only so he could learn more about her. "I'm sorry to hear you can't fly yet." He waved the canteen around in such a way as to make the water splash against the sides but not to spill. "Like I said I've never seen your kind before. Are their others or are you the only one?" His mind scanned her's and he nodded. He didn't need her to answer but it was good for form if he waited for her to do so. He had other questions as well though while they were the more pressing he could wait.

I see." Corwin stated with his smile firmly in place. He was glad to note she was looking at his canteen. He carefully unscrewed the cap and lifted it to his mouth. "Tell me can you use those things or are they simply decoration?" It was an honest question since he had never seen anything like her.He was very interested in what she was doing there is she came form the north. He took a small sip of water letting just a small amount run down from his lips. It was a waste but one he hoped would pay off.

Corwin had stopped at the last dump site to refill his canteen. Once clean and shaved as best he could and with a full nights sleep he had moved on. While at the site he had heard rumors about a girl with what looked like wings. He had tried to get as much information as he could however there wasn't much more than she was seen.
He stepped out into the bright red sun and blinked. Carefully he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small package, licked his fingers and stuck them into the small bag. His thumb and fore finger were both covered in a white power which he then pressed onto his tongue.
It didn't take long for the stuff to work. Expanding his senses giving him more clarity. He opened his mind and scanned the surrounding area. If she was out there he would find her. He took a a few moments to be sure then moved forward heading the way he had been told she had gone.
It took him time but in a day or two he found his mark. The slight blimp in his mind which told him she was close at hand. He smiled and moved more quickly heading right for her. If he could head her off he could at least see what she looked like.
He didn't manage to head her off instead he did one better. He walked right up to her scanning her mind. She was thirsty and in need of copper. He smiled as he approached. "Hello there. Haven't seen your kind before. Mind telling me where your from?" He asked as he took out the canteen making sure to show it off.

Subject: Corwin
Days passed and still he hadn't heard anything about a bird person let alone anyone who had seen one. Corwin was tired. He had been saving his copper by sleeping outside as much as possible but it didn't seem to be doing him any good. He knew he would have to stop soon at a Dump site in order to at least get some water in his mouth or he would be to sick to travel soon. Unlike others his body didn't convert alcohol to water in order to stay hydrated.
He paused looking at the ground in front of him. In the darkening light he could just make out what seemed to be a foot print. He bent low and looked at it more carefully. He wasn't the best tracker and he never claimed he was but he was pretty sure that print was a few days old at least. Though he could have been wrong he was pretty damn sure, more sure than how old the print was it was made from a bird like claw.
He stood up and smiled at himself, at least he was heading the right way. Corwin glanced at his pip and nodded. The weather was clear for the next few days. Once more he glanced at the track then lifted his eyes to the sky. He had half expected the bird person to fly but if this track was any indication the thing had to move about on the ground. It would be easier to track it then at least.
He reached a hand out as if to touch the print then stopped and dropped his pack to the side of it. Before long he had made his camp. There was no point in moving on tonight, it was growing to dark for even him to see and his target was a good ways off. He could wait until dawn the move again hoping to catch the bird before it got wind of him.
At least this hunt was proving to be a bit more exciting then the last one he had been on a number of yrs before. As he stretched out he glanced once more at the print and smiled soon they would have their first face to face meeting, at least he hoped they would.

Subject: Worlds End
A man with dirty blonde hair marched into the dingy room and dropped onto a stool which had been made in a time before the world changed. He glanced up at the man standing on the other side of the wooden bar and glared. “Water.” There was a thud as his pack at the floor beside him. “And let the Boss know I’m back.”
The man nodded and hurried with the water. He knew this man wasn’t to be messed with. He was on the bosses good side and once more he always brought home the copper. “Here you go.” The man behind the bar told him pushing him a glass which had seen better days filled with a clear liquid.
The blonde took a long pull and smiled. “As good as I remember. The Boss.” He reminded the man who quickly darted off. A few moments later another man looking a bit older perhaps in his late 20 early 30’s came out and smiled. “Corwin, you’re back and just in time.” He waved a hand. “Come with me.”
The man at the bar stood taking his glass with him as he followed the other man back. “What ya got?” he asked closing the door behind him.
The Boss sat down and pulled a few sheets of paper out. “I have these for you.” He glanced up then smiled. “How did you do?”
“I brought back what you wanted.” Corwin told him in a calm almost emotionless voice.
However the Boss knew he felt and cared what happened around him. “Let me see as I explain what I’ve got for you.” Corwin started to bring out the copper as the man talked. “There have been reports from the north about a winged person wondering around. No ones seen it’s kind before. I want you to investigate it and see what it wants or who it works for.” He moved a single sheet to him. It had a badly taken picture.
“What else?” Corwin asked as he studied the shot. “Nothing better on this thing?”
“What more do you need to know it has wings and clawed feet.” The Boss laughed. “The next is also in the North. There’s a hit out on a young girl seems she pissed off the wrong people and they want her dead. I didn’t get all the details of course but I’m sure you’ll get it along the way.” He slide a few sheets over to him this time. On top was another badly taken picture. There were a couple of other shots as well all much better them the last.
“This will do.” Corwin nodded then looked at the last sheet. “What the hell is that?” he asked.
“Ah this,” the other man held up the sheet and smiled. “It’s badly written and nothing is spelled right but the idea is there.”
Corwin lifted his eyebrows. “And that is?”
The older man gave a small snort. “Forgot man. It says; Join the Gears today.” He gave another small snort. “I want you to look into this Gears thing and see what it’s all about. Seems the guy doing this is in the East.” He smiled.
Corwin sagged and nodded. He knew the meeting was over and it was time for him to leave. He stood finished his water and took his cut of the copper. “I want dust for the road enough for four months. It might take me longer. I’ll need a full restock. While you work on that I’m going to shower.” The other man nodded and began the work as Corwin left his office and headed out back for the showers.
Corwin stood under the water and puzzled over his three assignments. Two to the North, one to the East. East meant clean, cheap water, North was wild and ever expanding. The hit might not be hard and who ever had asked for it done could part with quite a bit of copper. He turned in the water rising the dirt of the road off as he wondered which way to go first. The target should be stationary while the bird person would be on the move. He knew he wanted to take care of the Gears last, what ever that was about.”
As he stepped out he knew what he was going to do. It might take him a month to get there but he would go after the bird first. All he needed was information nothing else. Once he had that, he’d head for the mark, make the copper he would need while in the East and take his time tracking the last one down.
That very night he left heading into the North hoping to find the bird person soon. If he didn’t have to walk the whole damn territory it would help a great deal.

Hello......... and add the Ody welcome.
Pop into the DragonChat where I act as current resident bar tender. We offer our very own "Good Old Froth-n-Slosh", the stale pale ale with the foam on the bottom.
Just grab a mug off the mantel and draw a cold frosty one.
My assistant Igor is usually lurking around if I'm not there.
He never says anything, must have something to with having his tongue cut out by his last boss, that nasty bartender over at the Ugly Orc Bar & Grill.
I didn't know we have a home brew. Damn where have I been. *L*
Anyway, welcome Lady. Glad to see you made it and had no trouble finding this place. *waves at the inn at large* I know we're kind of a small place but hey. *L* Besides that *whispers* this will give you a chance to get that man of your's settled in too. Welcome and have a glass of our finest *a bit louder than is needed*

Topic: Worlds End Q&A
Subject: Wolrds Ends Q&A
This is a closed game. Sorry. The players have already been selected
The world as we know it now is gone. 200 years ago our yellow sun changed turning into a red one. When that happened all the nuclear power plants also went haywire. As a result the once warm world has turned to harsh lands, with only two seasons, killer hot and freezing cold. There is little grass or other greenery, there is also little to no free water.
When the world became the radiated mass it is now something happened to it’s people in and around the most affected areas. They were forever changed, some becoming ghouls while others became giants known as mutants. However there were other mutations not so obvious. Few are with out changes and those without are called Normal’s or just Norms. The talents range from techies who have an ability to work with anything mechanical or chemical. Some go into healing but most just work with machines getting them functional again. To the most feared, the psions. Psions are feared because there’s such a range they can have, from healer to lifters (telekintics). There are any number of other talents or as they are more commonly know gifts. Over time another change has been seen, the merging with animals or plants, such as walking trees who can speak.
In this world of endless waste land small settlements popped up, however these people needed a way to protect themselves from either the bandits or for the gifted, so they formed small groups of mercenaries to help protect them. In time these small groups banded together to form larger more effective groups. Four such groups are the Suns who are known to take anyone with a gift or norms. They are equal and the most willing and able to protect their territory form outsiders. They protect their towns and people with a vengeance few other gangs have. There are the Rats who employ only mutations and ghouls in their group however they never move up in rank. The Phoenix who swear they rise again form their own ashes enslave those with gifts believing a tame talent is a safe talent. The last group and the worse of the bunch is the Scorpions. The Suns have the biggest originations and the most pull with their towns and villages. In Sun territory the cities have flourished and water is cheap.
Copper is the many currency though if you have fresh water you can change that over to get just about anything. Whoring is legal or at least not frowned on since it is a way of making copper. Since the gangs run the law drugs are legal as well. All their drugs are hallucinogens however none of the ones we are aware of exist any longer. Root is a naturally growing one, sludge is a slugged which is rubbed on sensory areas such as the temple or jaw, ice is mostly formed from solidified radiation, and Dust which is considered by most the worst of the lot. Dust is used by Psions to increase their mental power for them it is not addictive.
The animal population has changed with the changing of the sun. All animals with the exception of the breed for food, have become predatory. Even some of the plants have turned to meat. It is very important to watch what plant one sleep under in case it decided it’s hungry and the sleeping objected under them is a tasty meal. Animals such as frogs, insects, and moles will attack on sight. Others lay traps and wait for foolish pray to fall into them. Many a small child has been killed because they did not hear their mothers advice.
Polyamoury runs ramped since there is a much smaller population. Marriage is not as binding and many people view a single partner as limiting. There are still those who marry but those marriages often have another partner or two. Same sex partners is not uncommon and it is often viewed as odd if someone doesn’t have at least one same sex partner. This is not to say everyone has been with someone, there are a number of people who have no desire to “bed” anyone.
Machines of the past are still seen, though many of the gangs prefer to use high energy weapons such as plasma or laser. This is where the techies come in since they are the only ones who can really work with machines. Computers of the past have been stripped down for their copper. The only means of communication is by messenger or courier. There are still some forms of transportation such as hover crafts or cars though bikes which have been modified are the most preferred. For the most part the main way to travel is on foot.
The climate changes between very hot and bitter cold though there is little real snow. Most of the “snow” they see is the chemical kind. When it rains people seek shelter of some kind. The rain is mostly made of chemicals which the “water” collected from the air also all storms are lighting storms. These are not your pretty lighting storms these are the scary kind. The air is so charged it is impossible to leave what ever hiding hole you found for at least a day afterwards. These storms do not last just a few hours but days at a time. Their calendar follows the same as ours except for one major difference when the hot and cold seasons are. Between the months of April and September are the cold with June being the coldest, October through March or the hot with Dec being the hottest of them all. With this in mind many people always carry two different kinds of clothing, one set for the hot and one for the cold. Those in the gangs are known to carry more than one.
With little free water, drinking water cost copper as does shower water. However these people are not unclean they have found sonic showers to work just as well. To clean their clothing sonic washers are used and while they work well they do not get all the dirt out so clothing does break down. Their bodies have also learned to break down alcohol into a liquid which can be used to hydrate the body (evolution!). Most food is either grown such as maze or it is breed such as with the large “bovine” which people have learned how to tame and tend. Animals have mixed and merged into new forms which retain their old names, example the “dog” which looks like a dog in the face and lizard in the body and moves more like a cat.
Copper like the drugs are measured in weight. Grams and ounces are the most widely used. Grams are the smallest unit of weight and are often used as the bases of drugs. Grams and ounces is the measurement used most for copper. One gram of dust costs 20 ounces of copper for the Suns (dust ain’t cheap). The gangs melt down the copper and form it into five and ten ounce bricks. Each member of the suns carries a small cutting torch in order to pay for things, food, water, clothing, showers. In general, one ounce should be treated like a ten dollar bill. So, while most things are cheaper (2 dollars might equal 8 grams and could buy you a hot meal and a night at a dump station), an ounce is a lot of money. In general, it is never actually weighed. People will more or less eye ball it and weigh the copper in their hand. Though, a scale is at the ready if needed.
A Dump Site is a safe house for what ever gang sign they sport. Not just gang members go into Dump Sites though; many people know them as hotels or places where a glass of ale or brew can be brought cheap. These sites are spaced out and are often referred to as just Dumps. They might have gotten their name because people would “dump” themselves there if they needed help, but more likely because these places are run by men who are not the cleanest.
Everything needs new paint and at least a good washing and while many new things are being made many old have also been held onto. The people have learned once more now to make clothing but they have also taken many of the designs we currently have and cut them out sewing them onto another shirt of a very different color. There are not multiples sizes of the same color, you might have a large is red and a medium in blue with a hell raiser print on the back which was cut out of a black shirt. Should one go into a store to buy clothing, they would just not find a rack that held the same article over and over.
Little is known of the outside world; even just past the borders little is known, as for the rest of the world no one knows if their continent is the only one left or if there are others still out there. With no real way to travel over large bodies of water it’s hard to tell if “America” is the only land mass left. The people still recognize certain places by name though most have lost their names. There are no states or cities of old however they do call their continent the U.S. or America. No one really remembers what U.S. stood for or what America is supposed to mean, but their parents and grandparents used it and it’s as good a name as any. Some cities have called themselves after the old such as Renew Boston. Others have made completely new names based on what they liked the best. Only those who live in the cities call them by name except for places like Central or Centre. Central is the biggest city in the Center Territory while Centre is the biggest in the West Territory.
This story takes place at the start of some major trouble in the Sun’s West territory. The PC’s can either be part of the Suns or they can be outside and are “recruited” into the Suns as we play. All original ideas will work in this revamp of the world.
Here is the maps you will need. The first is the world map
The next is the continent map
The last is the area the Sun's occupy and where the different dump sites and cities are

Subject: Getting that a lot
I'm glad to hear your interested in seeing how it goes. I am too if it goes anywhere. I understand being busy and not wanting to get involved in another game. Unfortunately I'm hearing more of those kinds of responses then anyone wanting to join.
Either Jing or myself can make scans of the books we have and get them into PDF. (once I have time to play around with it) If we can't I'm sure we can find the files somewhere and send them to anyone interested. I understand most people are not as familiar with 3.5 as I am. It's the only system I've ever played really and I'm comfortable with it, plus I have a good chunk of the books. Thanks to my previous DM.
Please feel free to stop by and watch, read and just have fun. I don't mind people watching, *l* if there is a game at all. Again thanks for the interest.

If you need a PDF file I'm pretty sure one of us can scan it in and send it to you. That list is the books I have. At one point I had more but not any longer (had to give some of them back to the guy I was borrowing them from) You don't have to use any of them. All we ask is if you're going to use another book please ask us first so we can approve it.
I hope to see you there.

I'm glad to hear you think it's a good idea. I wrote the campaign myself and we're almost done with it but I love the setting so much and I'm kind of disappointed at how little real character development. I'm hoping to see other people interested as well.
Of course you can watch. If at any time you have an idea or can offer advice I'll be more than glad to hear it.

Topic: Weapons of Power Recruitment
Subject: Game Play
Rules
The rules for this game can be found in the PHB, DMG and MM of 3.5 Dungeons and Dragons. We do house rule but when we do it runs on logic. If you have questions please feel free to ask. We also simplify rules so there will be no roll to confirm.
This game is limited to six players. If someone needs to drop please PM me right away so we can open it up to another player if needed. We are willing to work around work schedules or other conflicts.
We reserve the right to remove you from game if We feel you are not helping to make the game fun of others (being rude, disrespectful or such) You’ll be given a warning in PM, if you do not shape up We will ask you to leave. The idea is for everyone to have fun.
Please keep to the ToS for the site and use your best judgment, swearing is allowed as long as it’s in character and no players are offended.
Combat
We want to run combat in chat for ease and simplicity. Please let me know when you post your character idea what day and time (EST please) you would be available to do so. We plan at least one combat per week. We will PM players to remind them of the time and date of combat at least one day ahead of time. If that time needs to be changed for DM sake a new PM will be sent with the revised time. If you are unable to make it please PM me or Jing and let one of us know so we can “pocket” your character for combat. You will gain no EX for the combat, but the party will not be short either.
NPCs
Either myself or Jing can and will post as DM. We also will have NPC’s. NPC’s may and will join the party for an unspecified amount of time. We DO NOT treat long standing NPC’s as NPC’s, in a way they become PC’s: our way of interacting with the party either to help the story along or just for the RP sake. We both love to play and since our group was so small before we got used to having NPC’s around for us to interact with instead of just being GODs.
Dice Rolls
When it comes to dice rolls, this is how we will be handling it. During in chat combat, you will cover your own dice rolls. In the forum story, DM will handle your rolls and give you the results in the DM responses.
Leveling Up
You will handle your own leveling, We don’t have the time nor desire to do so for you. Besides, we don’t know what you might want to up or change at any level. All we ask is when you are done leveling you send one of us the updated copy of the sheet for our own records and so your dice rolls will be up to date as well. If you have questions, we can assist. We will double check them to make sure you have everything you need done. If you forgot something we’ll let you know so you can change it.
Experience (EX) will be granted the end of each week no matter if the act is done. That will be posted in the Q&A section. EX is awarded both on role play and combat. If you’re not so good in the combat you can make it up in role play and vise versa. We award EX fairly and each person will get the amount we feel they deserve, though keep in mind you will not level every game. We don’t agree with the EX in the book so we estimate what we think each encounter was worth including story and combat. Oh we also give EX for entertaining the DM’s so have fun.
We will inform you of your EX at the end of each week.
Plot
This is very much a plot oriented game. The plot is broken into acts. Each act will last at least one week, but many very well last longer depending on how the characters react to each encounter.
DMs will post as needed. So while still in the middle of the week, the DM may post to help further a certain characters actions or keep the NPCs involved. We will not be limiting our posts to the end of the week, just as you won’t be limiting to once a week if you don’t want to.
We do love to throw hard situations at players so please keep that in mind. There might not be perfect party cohesion as with real life. Please do keep real world problems out of game though. We put characters through hell though we are not player killers. We have never killed off a character (though we should have one or twice).
Ready to accept players!!!!

Shangrila is a small island about the size of Madagascar. It is over seen by a half red Dragon who sits on the throne as King. However ever color dragon has its own territory to rule over though they all answer the King Aries. The terrain differs depending on which dragon rules the area. The island experiences seasons though where you are on the island depends on how much of a change you will see. For the most part the humans remain in the metallic dragon control. Shangrila is mostly occupied by monsters of differing kinds. There are spell scales and kobolds who guard the Dragons, though the spell scale number has dropped off considerably. On this island there is homosexuality though it is not flaunted it is seen almost always behind closed doors. This is your home island.
DM: Torene, Jing
This is meant to be a long run campaign. We have run this campaign before with our table top group. We want to see how it goes with other people so we can be more in depth and see how other players handle similar situations. We’ll ask the same from you we did of them. Please take note of what you will need and the information of gameplay in the lower sections. (the gameplay notes will also be available in the Q&A thread)

This is a very shirt story I wrote for someone who thought it might be funny. She had just beaten Xeonsagas for the first time and had this wild thought. It never went anywhere else but hey I thought it was cute. Just enjoy it for the silliness it is.
“What?” Shion shouted looking between Allan and KOS-MOS.
“As I have stated before Shion, I am currently unable to perform my assigned duties. My combat effectiveness will be done to 33% for the next three months and will continue to decline by 12.8970% over the next half year. ” KOS-MOS said in her matter of fact tone.
Allan blinked his mouth open. “I swear chief, I didn’t know it was possible.”
Shion grabbed the computer readouts from him and waved them in his face. “It’s not. She wasn’t built with the necessary equipment.”
KOS-MOS walked slowly behind Shion. “Shion, it is alright.”
“No, it’s not. It’s not possible. Allan run the tests again there has to be something wrong.”
Allan looked between his boss and the android. “But Chief,” he started but was once more cut off.
“Enough, I’ll run the tests myself.” Shion muttered as she began to run the necessary tests.
Three hours later and after a hundred tests all with the same results even Shion couldn’t deny it any more. KOS-MOS was pregnant, something that should be completely impossible. She was an android with neither reproduction ability or the ability to care for the young once it was born yet here it was in her hand, confirming the fact that she was indeed with child.
“Who’s is it?” Shion had demanded of her “pet” project several times over the last hour. Each time KOS-MOS had shook her head.
“Unknown.” And that was the best she got.
Shion was ready to blow a fuse until chaos saved the day with a very simply statement. “If she is, it must be a miracle.”
As if all the waters of the flood had stopped flowing Shion relaxed smiling warmly at KOS-MOS like an expectant grandmother. “Well I suppose I can always use this data to help the Realains.”
Allan went wide eyed, finally realizing that Shion wouldn’t see him as a man, but as a research subject for her amusement. He sighed and went back to work, it was time he got over the over obscenest woman anyway.

Subject: Thank you
I read through them and while Flux Wars sounds wonderful it's a bit father along then I would like to join. As for Smugglers Moon. I don't really want to play as a pirate right now. Thank you though for the offers of both.
Jing and I are thinking about starting our own game here. We have both run it before and are just about to concluded it on table top. There is a good reason for wanting to open it here. One it lets us see what other players would do in similar situations and second because we really did rush through most of it because of almost consent "Break" There was a wonderful story line and great characters that I feel never got fully developed due to the consent interruptions in game flow. We might play one week and not the next or we would get going really well then suddenly at the heart of a major plot point about to be fully explained in the following week someone would call off. You can see the frustration.
If we did this we would follow our outlines but not expect anyone "replace" the table top members. This would be an AU. and maybe if Jing and I like it better then the outcome of our current group we'll use it for our RP that we are planing after the campaign is over. Who knows. Jing tells me there are wonderful players here and I would like to experience players who really truly love the game not just think it's kind of fun once and a while.
Sorry ramblings. I'll quite now. *slinks shyly into the corner and vanishes*

Subject: Looking for a game
So I have time on my hands once and a while. I'm a DM about to finish another campaign and I'm looking for a game. I'm tired of DMing all the time or having games start but no good ending. I love to RP but I'm not the biggest fan of dice run battles. I'm also a writer though none of my stuff can be seen so I have no good examples to show. Well none that might not offend certain people.
I'm looking for a game where I can get some good quality Role playing done, but doesn't have to take a lot of my time. I'm very open to just about anything, Most of the Rp's I've done lately are on sensitive issues. I'm very open minded and willing to work with many different people to have a good game.
Can anyone suggest a good game for me to join? I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

*bows deeply* Thank you for such a warm welcome. Since I am such a fan of D&D and all things to do with writing I'm sure I will fit right in. I plan to take some time to get to know all of you, though slowly at first since my schedule is a bit shaky right now. I'm use to having all the time in the world but with work soon to come it won't happen.
I'm not sure what kind of game I feel like playing just yet. Some part of me wants to play what I'm use to yet another wants to learn a new system or set of rules. I'm big on the role play side not so hot on combat. Where might I find a game like that, or should I look in the free forum for my rp fix?
Once more I thank you all for such a warm welcome as I have received here. I can't wait to learn more and become more active on this site. Hopefully Jing will keep reminding me to check in, I have a habit of wondering off for long periods of time. But I promise if their is a light on and a cool mug of ale I'll be back.

Eol-Thanks I'll look into it. I'm interested in the way other ppl run things in a format like this. And I love to tell stories. This once I . . .*trails off* though I should save that one for another time.
I'll take a look if I ever create a good weapon. So far the ones I've made were pretty badly done and not really worth much. Though I'm always trying. I have a couple of other players who think their really good at it. *l* their not at least not at what they do.

I'm not sure I trust that delicious statement but I haven't been warned you eat ppl so I think I'll be ok for now. I hope so as well. I'm tempted to join a game myself but first I wouldn't know which one and two I'm kind of busy DM a table top game going to start work soon and RPing with Jing in our off time.
Any suggestions? I DM a D&D game 3.5 right now. So I'm familiar with those rules but I'm also a writer so I'm pretty open.

GR-Thanks Grim. I'm all for kicking him but Jing is of a different opinion then I am. So we'll be ending game with him there however he might not like some of the surprises I have in mind for him.
EOL-You licked a CAT? *growls then begin cleaning herself* Oh slobber all over my coat not fair. I took a bath two hrs ago.
GD-You will. It looks like I'll be starting a game here. So there will be a few other ppl joining me in his prison I mean inn.

Hey,
I'm a DM for a long term table top RP of D&D. I've just upped my numbers form three players to five *YEA*. Jing is one of my friends and my Co-DM. She's the one who suggested I bring an RP here that I would like to do. but before I ask any of the people I plan to play with I figured I should check it out and see if I could get the hang of it.
