Hiya

I'm AJ, long time listener, short time lurker, new forum poster.

I live in New Zealand with my partner Wendy. No pets or kids, yet.

Gamed forever, since I got my Red Box back in '80. played sooo many different things. Like DnD, (but not ADnD, wonder why?), 3rd ed, d6 star wars, d20 SW too, Star trek d6 and d20, Traveler, Kobolds Ate My Baby, Floating Vagabond, WoD, Battletech, etc, including Justifers. Getting back into GMing, and really botched a justifers game so much, that my group gets convulsions, flashbacks, and other forms of PTSD every time they see the cover.

My not so secret shame is that I'm a Larper. WoD, new WoD, and others. I'm even on the local Larp committee, promoting it. I run some, I play some.

I'm also a historical reenactor, and train to Hema standards. (Historical European Martial Arts) Basically we get together, and using texts written in the period, train in the periods techniques. Really fun and fascinating.

I'm an engineer by trade, and work for a building supply company called Marley, part of Alliaxis, and Etex.

Douglas Adams summed me up quite nicely with a book title. "Mostly Harmless"

I always wanted to go to New Zealand. Such a beautiful country.

Anyway, welcome to the forums.

Welcome Grim Man. Good to have another WOD fan on the forums.

Say Hi to Zoe Bell for me and give her my number. You all know each other right? :D

Given sufficent velocity, a kiwi can shoot down aircraft, missiles, or destroy tanks. This is understandably hard on the kiwi, but one can still respect the numbers.

Howdy! :-)

Mind the insanity vortex in the bathroom. Don't put your hand in it and you should be fine.
