Your RPG Person Profile

Copy this and put it somewhere on your blog or some other static place that's easy for people to find. Like if some RPG person can find your name, they should be able to find this profile. It'll speed things up.

Like, I put a link to mine over in the margin there.

If you're on a forum, you can put a link to in your signature.

I'm going to copy mine and put it in the comments on this page, but if you do that also make sure you do it somewhere else, too, because there's no guarantee anybody will be looking for your profile here.

Erase anything that doesn't apply.

      You are aware that you are in fact playing (at least partly) a Mormon inspired game? Tracy Hickman is a prominent Mormon author and Dragonlance is a huge part of DnD. Just putting it out there.

      You're only playing a "mormon-inspired game" if you play a game with elements from the Dragonlance novels or modules.

      Which I'm not.

      Wow, I didn't know Dragonlance had a "background" like that.
      Exactly which elements have been taken from the mormon culture?

      So, I did not know where else to put this. If this is in the wrong place, I apologize. I have recently purchased 'A Red and Pleasant Land' and 'Vorhiem', and they are some of the finest gaming books I have ever bought. Outside of the superb formatting, the content itself was well worth the price of each. Your creativity is frustrating, only because I wish I could attain the level of creativity you have reached. I'm unsure who 'The Drama Club' is; I profess ignorance when it comes to most internet groups. From your comments about them, they seem to take issue with your lifestyle. I consider myself a religious person, and I am consider myself conservative when it comes to sex. One should remind 'The Drama Club' that the world is too full of injustices to attack adults having sex with other consenting adults. I was a social worker for a number of years, and would be happy to give 'The Drama Club' a number or targets that deserve their ire. Though you don't need me to tell you so, keep living your life the way you are, your imagination alone makes the world a more colorful place to live in.

      Late reply in response to your question Fabio, Mormons believe that for much of the history of Christianity the true authority of God was lost by people reinterpreting the gospel. In the beginning of the Dragonlance story, the gods have withdrawn from Krynn. It takes a prophet, or prophetess (Goldmoon) to restore peoples connection to the gods. In addition Fizban is very much the Christian/Mormon God, he personally incarnates in physical form to guide the party, who can be thought of as his apostles.
