Just an aside, but in the first game I played in, the idea of killing off my character was unthinkable. I was WAY too attached to that character... had spent...
Honestly? No idea. Don't know much about those types of characters, but I'd imagine basic group psychology would help in figuring out what would force enemies...

What IS the proper name for werewolves? Isn't that some subset of a higher thing? Like Weres as a whole include werewolves, werebears, wererats, etc? Are...
I tend to refer to lycanthropes (or lycans for short) as weres of all types, whether wolf, rat, bear, cat, weazel, poodle, whatever. So, yeah, lycan would...
I just did that not too long ago. The character was one of the first ones I played in that game, and I never quite played him the way I wanted to... So he got...
I do too, usually... Well, actually I've got a soft spot for lycanthropes because they can be so cute and fuzzy. And I also like pookas. But aside from that,...
Well he called vampires vampires, mutant mutants, immortals immortals, humans humans and instead of werewolf he put "Lupen" There's nothing wrong with the word...

Pooka is a fun word to say. ;) Monkey pooka is doubly fun. :P Shannon ... From: "b.l.imai" <bli2203k@...> To: <freeform_GMs@yahoogroups.com> Sent:...

Howdy, Krista! ... What I would consider a "bad" player is someone who doesn't just ignore the rules I've got listed on the website, but someone who thinks...
My criteria's pretty much the same as everyone else's. Good Player: Open from the beginning with able to adjust character to best fit the game, keeps open...

I had someone join my game. Spend 2 weeks working on his character sheet. It took criticism well, and rewrote it if there was something I didn't like. He was...
Ahhhh... Kenny. Wouldn't it be cool to have a character that just kept on dying hideously, but still turned up the next day? Sort of like a phoenix, only not....

A pet peeve of mine is when folks are carrying around a character looking for a home for it. To me, it shows a serious lack of imagination. What, you can't be...
I'm married to a "powergamer" who would love to play superman as superman. It's not that he does't appreciate the Clark Kent persona. He just prefers the...
