Sting Gaming Geeks & Roleplayers

I'm curious if there are other people out there that chuck the bones and talk in funny voices, while getting "pizza damage" on your character sheet.

I bought a book called J.R.R. Tolkien Artist & Illustrator and it had some interesting designs in it, but many of them were not really LOTR related.

I'm a big RPG geek. :)

Anyway, I thought some of you might enjoy the Midnight Setting by Fantasy Flight Games. It isn't Middle-earth, but it does remind me much of it. It seems to me a darker...

I'm a big Sam fan.

I like that he is simple, honest, and a true friend from the start to the end. He's steadfast, caring, and is as tough as a doornail. He never gives up, and strives to finish...
