Hello folks! I’m another reddit refugee. I’m in tech support for a medium sized ISP here in the Midwest. The company is based in Indiana, but I live in Michigan. My most used subs on Reddit were FFXIV, D&D, Cocktails, and Cosmere. If anyone shares those interests, I’d love to chat!

What part of Michigan? I’m an enthusiast for spirits of all kinds, and I’d love more friends to share the hobby with. I actually made a custom cocktail inspired by Zelda back on TotK launch day

Hey! Have you gotten an invite to the Lansing Discord yet? I found it on Reddit back when I moved, and it’s been great for getting to know people and learning about the area

I’m not a Yooper anymore, but I did my time up in Houghton in college. Can’t imagine there’s much F1 going on up there lol

I’m GMing a game of PTU right now! It’s kind of half d20, half d6. It has probably my favorite class system I’ve seen in a TTRPG. LOTS of crunch, though, and combat can get very slow with lots of Pokemon, so you have to be careful how you run it

Glad to hear it! I’ve noticed the site running much more smoothly today

My character that I’ve been playing for two years just died, so I got to make an all new one! He’s currently Paladin 2/Wizard 5 (Bladesinger). He’s a Tiefling named Justice.

He was basically a middle class nobody, until he managed to get a nobleman to sponsor him to go to his city-state’s university. There he studied law, and eventually had a work-study squiring for an order of knights. When he graduated, they gave him an honorary knighthood, and he earned the position of magistrate in his city-state.

Some years later, a theocratic army worshipping Amaunator occupied his city. He was allowed to keep his office, and gained a reputation among the people of the city for being fair on commoners, contrasting the strict brutality of the occupiers. It was during this time that he met his wife, a lieutenant in the ranks of the occupying army.

Eventually, he saw a case between a nobleman in the city, and a peasant. Following the law, he sentenced the nobleman to prison, which did not make the nobleman’s powerful father very happy. They couldn’t move against Justice directly because of his popularity with the people of the city, so instead they went after his wife.She was imprisoned for “adultery,” and he was told she wouldn’t be let go unless he stepped down from his position as magistrate.

After he stepped down, he decided to take the law into his own hands. He became a vigilante, enforcing the rules of civilization where the rulers would not. It wasn’t long though before the rulers began catching up to him, and so staying in the city became too dangerous. He and his wife then left to join the Resistance, which is where he will meet the party in our next session.

They’ve already met his wife, who is now known as the Iron Revenant. They don’t know she is married though, and one of the other PCs has a bit of a crush on her, so that will be fun.

Have they been calling your character Bob? I think that’ll be the first step towards getting them to realize

Wow, I can’t believe my signature has never been flagged. I honestly thought they must just not check
