My name is Cynthia, and I am a roleplaying addict

My one and only complaint about gaming with Sam is that I never, ever get enough. He’s just so good, and the stories are so fascinating, that I always want more! I’m just greedy, I guess.
Yep, I flubbed my saving throw against being a geek.
A fumbled that saving throw, myself.
Is it really greed, though, to want more of something so good?
Saving throws… Man that brings up memories of long ago. High school to be exact. I miss playing D&D with my buddies. Those were some of the best moments in an otherwise horrible high school experience.
Do you still play? I didn’t start gaming until I was in my 30s, after meeting my partner.
No I don’t play them anymore. It’s not for lack of desire, mind you. Just nobody I know is into that stuff now. I used to play D&D, Star Wars, and a Twilight 2000/Marvel hybrid. I was good at figuring my way around vicious game master plots.
My mother was one of those “Christians” that thought D&D was evil! 😉
Ah — yeah, my parents would have been the same. There are still people into gaming. Story Games are the big thing now.
Sounds like fun. Do you play over internet or something?
We mostly play in person. We did some online RPing for the After Serenity podcast, which was fun, and Sam has experimented with it in Second Life, but I prefer the real-time social interaction.
Yeah I always liked that better too. You have a lot more creative games that way, and some good laughs as well! 🙂
