A 28 year-old male troper from the
cold wastes of Minnesota. (Yah, sure, you betcha.) I live about an hour south of the
Twin Cities except we call them "The Cities". Actually, I'm very close to Mankato
[1]
, where the largest mass execution in U.S. History occured. We try to keep that last part quiet, though.
While a major geek in all respects, I love
RPGs the most. I'm the DM/GM/Storyteller about 90% of the time. Currently running an Old World of Darkness cross-over game based in
Milwaukee Boulder. It contains many
homages,
Shout Outs and outright stealing from many sources, including
The Dark Tower. The players are a
Demon-possessed hitman, an ex-military doctor
Hunter who looks like the Comedian from
Watchmen, a semi-famous web-film director
Mage and a 14-year old prostitute
Garou.
They Fight Pentex! Suffice it to say, it's exactly as crazy as it sounds.
I'm a Discordian. (Yes, really.) Plans to do a major
Entry Pimp on
Principia Discordia are pending.
Works that I dig include, but are no means limited to:
- Literature
- Movies
- Music
- RPGs
- Dungeons & Dragons: My first love. I'm been reading the books/playing/DM'ing for 20 years or so. (Since I was 7!) Back in the day, I was able to check out First Edition AD&D books from the local library.
- World of Darkness
- TV
- Charmed: I originally watched it because of my (now ex-)wife, but I grew to like it. YMMV, but I think it is a better show than it's given credit for.
- Gilmore Girls: Same as Charmed, except I think that it's quality was never in question. (Except for the last season.)
- Good Eats: Best cooking show EVAH!
- iCarly: A Guilty Pleasure. I'm not afraid to admit it.
- Mythbusters
- Pro Wrestling
- Video Games
- Web Stuff
Tropes present in my life include:
- Dead Guy Junior: My son's first name is the name of a close friend of mine who died young.
