JoanieDark Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 Hey there, I'm JD, nice to meetcha. I'm some genderless draconic godbeast who is in training to talk to dead people for a living. I enjoy short walks on the beach and washing all the damn sand outta my shoes. Ok, nah, I'm more into like, nerdy shit and goth fashion and spooky monsters, but hey. Gotta make it sound like a cheesy dating profile. My hobbies include writing terrible smut, playing/DMing D&D, craft beer tasting, and collecting way too much merch from various fandoms. I'm a Texan heathen planning on heading in a Northwesterly direction next year after I graduate. どうぞ よろしく Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NullVector Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Um, welcome to arocalypse (the beer is not an aro thing, but you mentioned beer, so) 2 hours ago, JoanieDark said: who is in training to talk to dead people for a living. And how do the dead people feel about you doing it 'for a living'? Sounds like you aren't really on their side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoanieDark Posted April 15, 2017 Author Share Posted April 15, 2017 Thank you! And I'm studying for my certification in Mortuary Science, haha. I'm sure they're ok with me prettying them up and stickin' them in the dirt. They don't need me joining them any time soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generic Clown Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Heyy, another RPG player! I haven't done much DnD recently, except for DMing a stupid post-apocalyptic one-shot, but I have been playing a lot of 7th Sea, a homebrew Harry Potter larp, and a Fate game based on a long-running inside joke about gas aliens and lizard people.

starstuff Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 @JoanieDarkMy friend just introduced me to Brewer's Alley Kolsch. I think it's an import from Germany directly and pretty good. I'd never had a kolsch before, I tend toward IPAS usually. Allagash Brewery in Maine and Heavy Seas Beer in Maryland are also good if you like trying different breweries.

JoanieDark Posted April 18, 2017 Author Share Posted April 18, 2017 I never really liked hoppy beer til I ate some hops in brewing class, haha. My typical Kolsch is St. Arnold's Santo, since it's local and easy to acquire I should try Brewer's Alley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starstuff Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 Ha ha. Love me some hops and citrus. I'll keep st. Arnolds in mind, see if it's available locally. Brewing classes sound fun. My dad actual makes his own beer and cider so I get to try all his experiments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoanieDark Posted May 20, 2017 Author Share Posted May 20, 2017 AH I haven't been here in a while, discovered people talkin' to me still! On 4/18/2017 at 7:56 PM, starstuff said: Ha ha.

It's totally a good brewery! Houston has too many breweries in all fairness. I really need to brew more, but I really think I should try mead making at some point too.

The point is to have fun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James White Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Too many rules is right. There is a table of penalties to attack rolls based on wind speed, and that's just in the main DMG. The optional expansion and addon books make everything insane. That complexity is kind of why I like it, but also why I hate it. I've been meaning to try 5e because it sounds like a lot less of a humongous pain. Also cantrips can be cast without preparation, which is the BEST. Also, please pardon me @JoanieDark while I take over your introduction thread with an army of tabletop gaming nerds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
