[net.games.frp] New Dungeoning Chronicles

jrrt@hogpd.UUCP (R.MITCHELL) (03/13/84)

In the past, net.games.frp readers have expressed an interest in reading
about others' campaigns.  In this spirit, a bunch of AD&Ders in New
Jersey intend to chronicle their biweekly adventures on the net, to
entertain and to generate some discussion.  As the DM for the group,
I will have absolutely no input into the submissions.  Everything
will be developed totally by the players.  However, since no DM can
avoid the temptation to do *some* meddling, I am posting this note
to give a wee bit of background and to make one request of Netland.

With one exception, these players are all inexperienced with
role-playing in general and AD&D in particular.  Even the
experienced FRP'er has been away from AD&D for several years, so
he's a bit rusty.  I've tried to take these factors, plus my own
warped sense of what's fun and exciting, into account when designing
a dungeon and a world that's not *quite* in accordance with E. Gary
Gygax.  Anyway, since it is MY campaign, any comments/questions/
flames about the campaign, the NPCs, the adventure itself, etc.
should be directed to me, not the players. 

Correspondingly, comments/questions/flames about the characters, the
chronicles, etc. should be addressed to the players.  My only
request is that if you think you know something that the players
don't, PLEASE don't say anything (NO, not even a hint.  This means
you!) to them.  When in doubt, please ask me; I'll be glad to tell
you by mail what's going on if you ask and promise not to blab. 

Excelsior,
Rob Mitchell
