Gaming madness!

Had a fun weekend of gaming, with one game as a player and one game as a helper! :)

The game I got to play in is a 2nd edition Exalted game, where we're trying to go through the Temple of Elemental Evil. Yes, that's the D&D Temple of Elemental Evil. The game is very much meant to be one of really kewl powerz and showing off awesome anime-like stunts. I'm playing a Night Caste, who is a mix between Lara Croft and Legolas, with MAGIC! :) This particular game is not big on the roleplaying, but it was fun nonetheless. Once we figure out how to combo my kewl powerz most efficiently, then maybe I'll actually be an effective character, as well. :)

The game I got to help with is a super neat game that Jeremy runs for the "kids" of some of his friends. Now granted, the "kids" are all teenagers, though most of them have been playing in a game run by Jeremy since they were kids. :) I was thrilled about helping out with the game because it's a predominantly female game--6 girls, and 2 or 3 boys. Seeing as I don't think I've ever gotten to play in a game that is so predominantly female, I had to give this one a shot. So I ended up making a couple of Werewolf: the Forsaken NPCs to play, and also got to help out as the finder of names. The kids were referring to me as the "other tormenter" before the game, and I think I lived up to that expectation. :) They all got very concerned whenever Jeremy and I were both furiously typing on our laptops rather than talking out loud. :) I have a sneaking suspicion they'll let me come torment them again, though. :)

Of course, my own Werewolf Wild West game seems to be on indefinite hiatus. We haven't played since October, and there is no indication when the next game will be. But I do get to run a Star Wars one-shot in three weeks, which I'm looking forward to (even if I do still have to learn the system!). So my gaming fix is quite satisfied these days. :)

Why yes, I think things have changed around a bit on the site! Thank you for noticing! :)

Yes, I have rearranged my sidebar, and added a handy little Google search bar. I figure I might as well make my blog useful, right? :)

Oh, wait, I can do that by posting? No way! :)

Anyways, life is good, I'm doing like twelve billion things at work and maybe eleven million things at home. Busy? Yeah. But those who know me well will know that that's how I like it. :)

This weekend, we have two picnics to go to on Saturday, and we're meeting a couple of gamers for coffee on Sunday. Looks like we might be playing Scion. Yeah, a new World of Darkness game. I have accepted the inevitability... either that, or Scion looks like a super awesome game, and I just don't care what system it is at this point! :)

I've also got about a billion things going on with Etsy right now, as I've somehow stumbled my way into being the contact person for the Seattle street team. This kinda cracks me up, because I've been here what, all of two months now? It's okay, though, I feel like I belong here already. I've learned my way around a few select areas, and will eventually branch out to a few more areas. :)

Okies, off to get more stuff done. :)
