Just learning.

But I do learn fast...

I have a page here for my current game project "The Ultimate Galaxy". I am also working on a little RP article entitled "Roll Playing with Character" in which I will discuss my particular brand of RP play.

me?

Well I have been making games since I first touched a computer in oh the early 70's. Did some BBS door game work, did some Shareware. I move onto the Internet quite early and of course got involved with Muds soon thereafter. Worked on a few, Ran a few, Owned one. Met my wife on a Mud, MudMarried her a number of years before I really married her. Her name is Ariande Tau.

I first played D&D with the Blue Book set. My father, brother and I all sat down one afternoon and fought some Lizardmen. I realized two things that day, the first that was adding Role Playing to game mechanics made for a much more involving game. I had played alot of games BTW. The second was that I would much rather be Dungeon Master than player, even though playing is fun.

That first game also lead to me running quite a few game groups over the next decade or so. Really loved Champions.

I have held onto a Geocities website for a number of years as my personal bit of cyberspace. It has been many things but it has always been called Smoke and Mirrors.

Since I eventually will have a Live game, which sometimes produces unhappy x-players, I suppose I will have to think about backing-up my pages here, including this one.
