Medinoc - Television Tropes & Idioms

A twenty-eight years-old French software engineer, who found this wiki when looking for the Xylophone Gag... He was only twenty-five then. Likes Video games, some Manga and Anime (but knows an awful lot less than his friends), and tabletop Role-Playing Games.

Plays Tabletop RPGs:

In Nomine Satanis / Magna Veritas (french RPG In Nomine is based on)
JTRM (MERP, Middle-Earth Role-Playing Game), the game with many tables.
L5R first edition
Feng Shui
And lots of homebrewn games, based on "brouette de dés" (lots of dice) systems, most notably the Star Wars D6 RPG

Favorite video games:

The Legend of Zelda since A Link To The Past
Super Smash Brothers: Melee
Command & Conquer since the beginning!
Half-Life 2 series, Team Fortress 2, Portal, Left 4 Dead
Disgaea
Iji
Warhammer 40000 Space Marine
