Introductions!
Hi there everyone! I've played role-playing games since the mid-1980s. Since I grew up in Sweden, I started with Dragonbane, not DnD, so that's a bit unique compared to most North Americans, I guess. I love myself a good story, the thrill of the dice delivering that completely unexpected outcome, and the golden moments we get from amazing role-playing and gut-wrenching drama at the table! I took the Bartle-test and I'm a SEAK! What are you? Take the Bartle Test

Game prep
I'm setting up a Sabbat game for Vampire: the Masquerade on Startplaying.Games. What's you're game prep routine? For me, I'm going to read up on the New York by Night book, of course, and pay particular attention to the motives and secrets the various NPCs have for plot hooks.
