I got into D&D in 1977 (I was 11). It was with the blue book-- the one with the TSR lizard man logo on the cover. My overactive imagination had finally found what it had been longing for all of its young life. I don't think we ever actually played the game correctly but we had a blast making it up as we went along. Around '77 or 78 I attended a small introductory RQ seminar held by Steve Perrin in a public library in or around Palo Alto. RQ seemed so much cooler than Dungeons & Dragons, but my childhood friends remained devoted to the former, all through its various iterations, stopping with the recent release of 4th Edition. Now we're all old with kids, but we still game.
One of my favorite pastimes is the crafting of adventures and campaign settings. I've been published in Dungeon, Pyramid and am currently working on a mini-campaign setting for Necromancer games (for 4th Edition D&D...). I've been keeping an eye open for generic system to marry--I've been dating GURPS but I must confess a growing attraction to BRP. I'm glad to have found this site.

Hello, I have just joined the site. My name is Jason Halton and I live in Chorley, England. I have been playing RPG's since 1979! I still cannot believe that
 . I started out at the age of 11 playing RQ at school during lunch breaks and started running games in about 1981 I think when I ran Golden Heroes and RQ2 for my school friends. I have played and run far too many games to list here! I have played or run games pretty consistently my whole life apart from a 3 year stint in the army. I found this site after a long hiatus between running RQ games, I last ran RQ3 Deluxe (the Avalon Hill one) back in the early 90's and I am very interested in the new Basic Roleplaying Game.

christopherhouse - welcome to the forums! You're a lucky guy to be married to a gamer. If only my Lovely Wife would game with me!
Bane Root - Very glad you've found the forums! The current BRP book is a compilation of all the optional / add-on rules you've ever heard of for the core system. It's a toolkit for building specific games you'd like to run. I'm enjoying it (and these forums) quite a lot. Welcome, folks - here's to interesting conversations and fun games!

Hello:
My name is George and I'm a freelance RPG writer. I've worked on books for the World of Darkness (new; core), Vampire: The Requiem, Exalted (first edition), as well as some d20 stuff. Although I've played many the game since my humble gamer beginnings in 1982, my favorite game has always and forever will be Call of Cthulhu, Basic Roleplaying version. I'm currently working on a setting for the BRP system that I hope to, at some point, publish it as either a monograph or as a licensed release. My other hobbies include cats, horror film/books/art, rockclimbing, xing yi, meditation, going to Burning Man related events, and laying on the floor listening to old progressive rock albums. Looking forward to exchanging ideas with you folks! Be Well, -George
