Default Greetings From Florida

Hi,

My name is Frank Frey and I am a 59 year old employee of the University of South Florida here in Tampa. I've been in the RPG hobby now for 31 years and have written modules for Twilight 2000, Vampire; The Masquerade, and Cyberpunk:2020.
I've always enjoyed RQ and Call of Cthulhu. I've run several different campaigns using the Chaosium systems. My two favorites for just the sheer enjoyment of it were a Stormbringer/Call of Cthulhu crossover and a historical fantasy game set on the Island of Cyprus in 1050 AD. Any way, I'm glad to be among fellow BRP enthusiasts. I'm on both Myspace and Facebook so look me up. I'm under my own name.

Frank Frey

Hello BRP World,

What to say about myself? I started gaming in the late 1970’s and switched to RQ around 1979. I’ve been a big fan of what is now called BRP for longer then it has been called that, and as recently as three years ago I was running a BRP-derived zombie-apocalypse game. BRP has been my “go to” system for fast and easy mechanics since – well, forever. I’m very excited to see it coming back!

My only gaming credits to date (outside of a variety of fanzine-type articles) is the sleep mechanics for GURPS (basically, when I was in grad school one summer I got the idea that I should write something for a game and get it published – so I did).

When I’m not gaming I am a senior scientist at a “major Midwestern” biomedical research center.

Rich

Welcome to the forum. Zombie apocalypse happens to be one of my most fave genres

Hi all,

I am Mrk and I'm looking forward to the new rules system. I've been a fan of D100 a for many years and am looking forward to converting my little fantasy world to BRP.

Hi Trifletraxor,

I used D&D with a mix of Arduin rules. I, as a few here, admired BRP but didn't want to run Glorantha ( great world, but not for me). As to my campaign world, I've been developing it for around 20 years. It's a meduim level enviroment with a dosage of sci fi and high fantasy. Some of the things that have influenced me over the years are: Zothique, The Dreamlands, Hyberborea, Black Company novels, Fafherd and Grey Mouser, Lin Carter anthologies, Richard Corben comics, Samurai Films, Spaghetti Westerns, Horror Movies , National Geographic, and even the late night news.

Hi all, I'm Amanda, long-time CoC Keeper and just about to start playing in a RuneQuest Vikings game. I have my BRP pdf and am very excited about all the possibilities for having a system that can run pretty much anything!
