"Don't Hate Da Playa, Hate Da Size of Di Kitchen Table."

Hey all,

Many articles have been written about the perfect PnP RPG playgroup. For me, it consists of me, HyunA, Yura, Yuri , Taeyeon, an empty kitchen table and parents who are out of town

Seriously, lets get back to reality. I really don't mind travelling light and the session just having me, Yuri  and an empty kitchen table. Oh, throw in a couple of character sheets to boot while we are at it. And the parents must still be out of town.

Ookay, heads up. Friends who like having a good time for a few hours would be great in a PnP RPG. Treat it like going to watch a movie which stars - YOU, YOU and yes, YOUR friends.

Also, being prepared for the experience is courteous practice. Imagine not going to your favorite screening without a drink and some good finger food/snacks. For PnP, it means bringing your personal dice, relevant character sheet and information, a pencil case and a smartphone/iDevice to do up some quick checks or calculations. Hey, some Chicken in a Biskit or chips does not hurt at all. These little actions will make a gaming day so much brighter.

And no one wants to be late for a show. Especially if it was a date. With "XP" tacked on orcs and goblins.

I am "Orc" and is worth XP in any self-respectable RPG.

Party Size -- I would prefer at least three players, and not more than six due to the average waiting time for a turn, attention span issues, scaling difficulties and the physical limitations of the gaming table.

I can see four to six players at any given time in my campaign, adventuring in the persistent world, with ongoing world updates to be published here on 9d20, so check back often or get involved in the Legends Respite Whatsapp group.

C'yall on the flip side, with a preview of the Mini-Adventure next.


--UPDATE-- MINI ADVENTURE REGISTRATION (19/8/12)

Me, Shane, Vek, Kat and Pong met up at night for character creation and it was a blast. Vek started the ball rolling with an Average Barbarian w/ high HP, Shane rolled up a Thane Gambling Addict, Kat, a Friar?/Sorcerer?  with a Cotta?/Slave? background (minimal commitment), and Pong- a Sorc?/Ranger? who actually got a 17 on one of his stat rolls.

-- Anyone who is interested in joining the mini-adventure next Saturday please get in touch with me before Wednesday so that I can scale the adventure accordingly. As said, I could technically handle a couple more adventurers. --
