Mr. Adventurer, PI
Mar. 15th, 2005 12:50 amJeff is too busy right now to DM the normal Monday game, and he said in e-mail today that he'll likely stay too busy through April, so Ed suggested we have a substitute DM in the meanwhile, and David (Stacey's brother) stepped up to volunteer.
Given the late notice, we of course didn't have characters made up, so we started out by making them. David was using some third-party character background generator that involved us rolling twenty million times on a bunch of tables of tables of tables, and refused to tell us what any of the rolls meant until he was finished, ostensibly so that he could work it all together into a story... but then decided it was taking too long and skipped the story part, just giving us the information line by line.
Then we generated names randomly using a d30. I ended up as 'Phygtyl', and Stacey as 'Tydek'. Ed was 'Ignacious', but that was just one he chose, instead of random. We never actually used the names in-game anyway.
