Howdy!

Heya hi hey,

I did a ton of forum PBP back in the day and have been jonesing to get back into it, so seeing what's out there. By trade I'm a performer, I write and perform my own shows, which is a great outlet but I definitely miss meeting and collaborating with people in a setting like this.

Anyway hope you're all well!

Hello and welcome. Try a new player solo game.

Then look for whatever interests you in the thread. Lots there.

Howdy ettubrucey,

LOL, I love your username! Glad to have you as a part of our PbP community. You'll find we're a fairly active bunch here. Many of us here are performers in our own way, except we perform using words and our performance unfolds in our minds...you'll fit right in I reckon.

As an introduction, I'm a D&D 5e player, but I also love L5R, King Arthur Pendragon, GURPS, and RuneQuest. Tell us a bit more about yourself. Which RPGs system(s) do you plan to play here? We have a lot of RPG systems from which to choose and we're willing to teach. How about genre, do you prefer high magic, low magic, historical fiction, high tech, horror, sci fi/future tech, etc.? Do you have a favorite character class, race? Do you know how much wood a woodchuck chucks, if a woodchuck, could chuck wood?

There are a lot of choices for various RPG systems here, although PF and D&D are the two most common. We have quite a few games with very long legs here. In fact, I talk about one below. To start, you may want to check out a solo game. This will help you learn the site tools, since each site is a bit different.

As far as finding games goes, try here. This is where there are games seeking players. It can be a bit daunting but don't give up. It may take a few applications before you get accepted...but it's worth it once you're in. This is a great place to scratch your RPG itch and interact with some great DMs and players. There is some incredible role playing going on here. I thought I was a pretty good story teller, but I have been put to shame by the quality of many of the players...and I have learned a lot.

This is a place where the people are welcoming, where the games are interesting, and where generally they only expect you to post a few times a week. I've been playing D&D for a very long time and I thought I've seen it all, but this site has some amazing games going on. I've been playing (storytelling as much as rolling) for a few years now in a game that has been going on continuously for four decades, started tabletop and moved online two decades ago. It's set in an alternate Europe where the worlds of Tolkien and Howard existed in ages past. So there is a hint of LOTR and a hint of Conan in it and since it's set in an alt Europe it somehow feels familiar.

This is just one example and there are other great campaigns on RPGX. You should take some time to "stroll around" the site and see if anything catches your eye.

I hope to see you around on the boards.

Hi, ettubrucey! Welcome to RPG Crossing! Back in the day is now the day! Woohoo!

So, are you coming to pick up again with tried-and-true RPGs, or are you jumping in to taste from some of the new RPGs?

Either way, look forward to seeing you around the boards!

Welcome, welcome!

So you're a performer on the other side of the screen? I'd love to hear some more about that, assuming you're comfortable, because that sounds like a lot of fun! Are you a poet? Puppeteer? One-man band?
