Introduction
No introduction yet
How long have you been gaming?
Hmmmm. 5th and 6th grade. Skip. Freshman to Senior, high school. Skip. Started up again in 98. What is that? 16 + years.
How many players do you prefer in your group?
DM + 4 - 6. Depends on the Gaming system and if there are any Prima Donnas.
What balance do you like to see in your game towards RP and Combat? 50-50? 70-30?
I like to think of gaming as Story-telling. So I guess I would land more on the role-playing end. Which is fortunate as I am an actor/director/writer/designer.
What is your favorite class in any system? Why?
It doesn't matter. I love to explore characters, if they happen to be a Paladin, fine, an assassin, fine. I have played Conjurists and Diviners. I definitely stay away from over-powered characters. A good flaw builds character.
Tell everyone about YOUR current (or ideal) game.
I believe Paizo has developed an amazing community of gamers. They also have the best writers. So if it is Pathfinder, I will play. After that, I prefer creative, flexible home-brews.
What Scrivner is saying about this Meetup Group
The Pathfinder format lends itself well to meetup role playing. The enveloping story of the Pathfinder society encourages the kind of small group interactions that we all love about RPGs. On your own you can develop a character that has a life of its own and still fit in seamlessly to the adventure. Great work Paizo.
