About

This is a blog about all things roleplaying, and particularly all things GURPS.

Q: Are you really listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for “The Most GURPS-Related Tables Published in a Single Month?”

Why yes!  I’m so glad you noticed!

Ok, so obviously I just invented that world record.  But in the first month of the blog’s existence, I posted no less than 191 GURPS-related tables.  That’s more than 6 new tables a day, for a whole month!  Of course, some of them are pretty silly.  But still, if I don’t hold the record, then I want to see the record-holder’s site – because that site rocks!

Q: Ok, so the site is about RPGs, especially GURPS.  But what else?

My odd obsession is with collaborative roleplaying – i.e. playing without a GM.   I know, I know – I was skeptical, too.  But believe it or not, GM-less roleplaying turns out to be both extremely possible and extremely fun!  So I do some proselytizing for that from time to time.

But’s that’s not the only focus of the blog.  At the moment, most of the material on the site is designed to help you play GURPS Fantasy or GURPS Dungeon Fantasy adventures either collaboratively or solo, and that’s what I’ll chiefly be adding to over the coming weeks.  But a lot of that stuff is also intended to be useful to GMs playing in a more traditional way – and there have certainly been quite a few random RPG thoughts, GURPS musings, and so on, as we’ve gone along.

Q: What about the current series?

My current thing is a Solo GURPS series, The Adventures of Temian Fell –  which I’m enjoying a lot.  In fact, so far it’s been even more fun that I’d hoped, so I’m definitely going to continue it for the foreseeable future – or at least until Temian dies (which could happen at any time!)
