Hi everyone!  I'm 37, live on the pleasantly foggy California coast near San Francisco.  I started gaming with the Moldvay Basic set ca. 1983-84.  Played AD&D1e and some other TSR games in grade school and college, drifted to other systems starting around 1999 -- folks in my group were mostly into Call of Cthulhu, Fading Suns, Palladium Fantasy, and White Wolf games.  Returned to old-school D&D in late 2004 via Castles & Crusades, then moved on to other OSR flavors...

My arrival at LotFP was largely driven by my interest Early Modern historical/fantasy gaming, which has been steadily increasing since the bug bit me 2009.  I've checked out a few other EM-era games -- Witch Hunter: the Invisible World, Honor + Intrigue, Renaissance, Sabres & Witchery, etc. -- and homebrewed my own Barbarians of Lemuria variant, but when I heard that LotFP was going Early Modern, how could I resist?

LotFP has now replaced Labyrinth Lord as the system for my Barrowmaze game.  I was really impressed by the Better Than Any Man adventure, now I'm looking forward to getting my hardcover Rules & Magic book and checking out some other modules!
