Well, I have been role-playing in a while, so this will be calling up some Old School games that a lot of you probably don't even really remember.

Okay, firstly, I played Barzûn, a Dwarf in Resettling the Lost Kingdom. It's the only time I have ever played a Dwarf - and it was one of the best times I've had. I don't think I necessarily did a fantastic job, but it was so interesting playing a character from such a race. We really don't know all that much about Dwarves - Tolkien gave us far more insight into the world of Men and Elves. And Dwarves were so different from any other race on Middle Earth.

I blushingly admit that I really liked Castar and Windheneb. They were in The White Horse Inn, Act II. It was really to get over my quiet fear of playing male characters - if you look, I do not play men that often. I just think I'm not so good at it - they always come across as very feminine men, in my opinion. It may just be my paranoia, I don't know.

And to be honest, there were some games where I was absolutely miserable - without a doubt (no names, don't worry). Another reason I quit - I kept falling into games where half of the members were absent three-quarters of the time, often including me. Tempers grew short, the owners weren't the most organized. But I do have an idea for a game brewing in my own mind. It'll have to wait until I come back from vacation, probably, since I leave in a little over three weeks. It'll give me time to work on it more. *Rubs her hands together and gives a sinister little smile*
