The Dragon’s Tower

So, I might have players again! (Yes, I’m that truly weird mythological creature, the female GM) It’s been so long since I’ve been able to run a game that I’m having trouble knowing where to start. A few things have already made it to my to-do list: create custom character sheets (The basic ones provided are ok to start with but long-term? No.), decide pre-generated vs player-made characters, sort my volumes of paper from old games for things of possible use in this one…. Did you notice that come up with story and create a game aren’t in the list? That part always seems easy!

This seems to be a controversial topic to some. First, to JHG, I actually only know one gamer in our local area who seems to complain as a method of entertainment. To ChattyDM: I myself haven’t had many bad GMs. But recently, I’ve seen a few new players completely turned off gaming by them.

However, I have to admit, my comments are nothing, NOTHING, to the link ChattyGM gave us: The Worst Dungeon Master Ever. This guy is a perfect example of why more girls don’t game. Who care about red hair, no matter how much it turns you on? And breast size?!?! Give me a break. The guy is rude and creeeeeeeeeepy. I’m an experienced player and I have to admit - I wouldn’t go back to that game. What the guy really sounds like though? A refugee from 1st Edition. Male 1Ed DM’s always had those binders and optional classes that were overpowered, let alone stupid.

First, I’m sorry I was gone so long. My family and I moved on 6 days notice. I spent most of the week packing and still haven’t unpacked everything! Took a bit to get internet and since we’re using cable, still don’t have a real phone! I hate moving!
