Introduction time
Hi gang,
My name's Ken Murphy. I'm a native of Southern California, and I've been gaming since soon after I'd overheard an accquanitence going on about a dungeon crawl way back in 77. Joining my first game soon after, the fish hook of gaming was firmly planted in the roof of my mouth.
Played LWB (little white box) D&D off-n-on until I read Steve Perrin's 'zine in an APA announcing the arrival of Runequest with "D&D is a thing of the past" as the headline. The article made good sense to me, and I've been a dedicated RQer/ BRP player ever since.
Over the years our group never really bothered using the Gloranthan setting; prefering various flavors of homebrewing. At some point my high school era campaign wrapped up with sinking below the waves.
A few years later I was reading up on ancient history and gnawing my way through Norse sagas and Irish epics, and decided to do a Alternate Earth camapign focused on epic era Ireland. The Irish campaign ran off-n-on for more than a decade.
Relocating to the Southern US in '91, I hooked up with another group of gamers, and we've been playing various stripes of BRP ever since.
Best,
-Ken-
