The idea of a blog post seems like a simple one, until you begin to look at from all the perspectives. Can I tell a good story? Hell yes! The adventures in the characters of a fantasy role playing game practically write their own novel. There in lies the problem. As I sit down to tell their tales, I want to do them justice, not just jot down a quick blurb, but tell the deep and interesting story to its fullest potential. It then becomes a question of how good a writer am I? While I think I can do a decent job telling a story, I'm not the greatest typist, I want to add flavor by uploading pics(which I have to search for and then download), which can take a significant amount of time. I play Dungeons and Dragons weekly(actually Pathfinder currently). The game sessions take from five to ten hours. The amount of material produced could easily fill a small novella... EACH WEEK! So I must apologize for not being better at keeping up with the tales of the characters. Looking at my game bag(where I store all my gaming gear), I have quite a few characters, all of which have rich deep backgrounds, because that's the way I create them. I will try to give each character his own post with some history and story line, but if I fail in my endeavor, please know that it is only my fault, and not that of the game.
