A quick D&D game Thursday night?

[penk]

Zach has gotten fascinated with D&D. We've made up a character, and I'd like to run him through a very simple scenario on Thursday night, probably 6:30 til about 8:30.

I could use another player - mostly to back him up, and help him with puzzles and where to look and the like. If anyone is around and wouldn't mind chaperoning Zach through the game, I'd be very grateful.

I'll have a character sheet put together, and all the materials handy - we'll play for about an hour and a half - this'll be a 'speed game', without a lot of prepping and hemming and hawing - I'll lay out the entire setting and characters.

Because I'm a rabid old fart who hasn't gotten up to speed, I'll be running with 2nd Edition Rules (cuz those are the books I have too). If we decide we're going to play more, I'll jump to 3.5 and rework things.

I could use 1-2 people, I don't have the time or setup to bring kids up to speed, so I think for this first game for Zach, an adult or two would be best.

If you're around, and would like to play, I'll even provide pizza.

Meeting at Interlude at 6:15, starting things rolling by 6:30, stopping at 8.

That actually sounds like lots of fun. Can I let you know tomorrow? My calendar has gotten scrambled in the past few days and I need to sort it out so I don't double-book myself.

Sure thing! If you do come along, bring your dice. I have to find all mine! :(

Aw man! I'm going to mrf_arch's on Thursday. Otherwise I'd be there. And I'm usually free on Thursday nights too. *pouts*

And this time I even gave you enough time!

I'm thinking of playing hooky from his meeting. Could I still show up? :D

Sure, I just need a committment, that's all... so if you say "Yes" then my seats are full, and I'll set you up.

[jasra]

I say yes. :)

I think I have some 3.5 I can loan you, though I also recommend taking a look at Fourth Edition.

Most of the gamers I'm talking to are saying 3.5 is the place ot be right now. But hokie smokes are the books expensive. $50 for a PHB? Yikes!

That's because they haven't played Earthdawn.

Make sure you email Perley, I don't think he reads LJ and I bet he or Alexei might be up for it...

I think for this first run through, just keeping it me as DM, Zach, + 1-2 adults is good to keep it settled and manageable. Much as I love Alexei, I think it would be too chaotic.

However, if this gets to be an ongoing thing? Ho yeah :)
