Biography
Name: James Ray
Age: 26
Sex: Male
Occupation: Printing
Nationality: USA
Location: Neoga, Illinois
Roleplaying Experience: all of it D&D and AD&D - been playing off and on
again since 82 or 83. Dragonlance, Forgotten Realms both left sour tastes
in my mouth Really liked Dark Sun, unitl Troy Dennings books made it a
"kill the sorceror kings befor somebody else does" kinda monty haul thing
Planescape and Ravenloft are ok, but they really let the writers go nuts
makin up new rules
really fell outt touch with game whortly before 2nd Edit came out, and lost
interest till Dark Sun came out (and brought back amazing world of
Psionics) that led me to Ravenloft, and the two carried me through my tour
with Marines from 89 to 93, and i then discovered Planescape and, finally,
Birthright.
sincerely hoping they get all the BR stuff out befor 3rd edition comes
along and changes everything - dont want a Forgotten Realms-style rash of
divine deaths and divine ascensions making life miserable in MY Cerilia (ha
ha)
