March always brings me a great deal of sadness as I remember my friend, taken way too soon. I, too, still find myself visiting this thread at low times. He is often my inspiration in all things... both game and life... With that:
Hey John,
I opened up a chapter in Denver. It's doing really well and we are hoping to get around 80 people an event once the season begins in April. The plotlines are coming along nicely. We have both short and long term arcs that the players are (hopefully) enjoying. There are some hard feelings between the nobles and commoners right now as the game is still newish and seeking its balance in that regard. We have 4 total plot members now... and we are striving to be the 4 horsemen. I have several desk people that I trust, and a GREAT player community. They host their own costume making nights, combat practices in parks, in game dinners, and more. I've been told that I am the source of many friendships and that feels pretty fantastic. We are doing a MODULE day this Saturday and it's our first. I remember back in Brooklyn when you first asked me to join plot when you saw a module that I had run there in the basement. That was the start of it all pal. Good times. I could definitely use some inspiration and summon a patronus like yourself. At times when I need that creative muse after a long, hard day at work, I recall many of the plotlines and world we created, be it on the phone or in meetings with our team. I recall discussing the Vaccarans at the faire day with you, long into the wee hours, and long before Pirates of the Caribbean stole our idea. LOL. Thanks for all the great memories. Thanks for being so positive and teaching me patience, forgiveness, and kindness. I tell myself that a part of your creativity lives on in me.
