Re: The Hello Thread! - Willowroot - 01-04-2019
Hello all! My name's Brian, and if you played any of the Blackmoor Living Campaign, I wrote or co-wrote several of the later modules (Brushfire, co-written with Chris Gale; Leaving the Nest, and The Coming Storm, both in the Children of War series). Also served as a playtester for Season 3 and 4 modules (and tried to help rein in some of the worst excesses of first-time game writers--we all make them).
I became aware of Blackmoor waaaaaay back when I started playing AD&D in the early '80s, but didn't really notice at the time when Dave's work was excised from Greyhawk. I came back to Blackmoor when I was playing and running in the Living Greyhawk campaign (and running gaming cons in Michigan, USA), and was asked to help out another local con-runner as a game master for some new mods. "The Oktagern Affair" was my first Blackmoor experience, and I never looked back.
I came across this site quite by accident, someone had posted a link to Havard's blog (RIP, Darwin Bromley, loved Chill 2e), and I followed the thread back here.

Wellcome! I am actually running that campaign, but I haven't reached that episodes yet, although I read and appreciated them.
I'm glad you joined this website!
Maybe you will look forward to share some of the unpublished material...

Again, welcome Brian! It is great having you here!

That is wonderful! I think many of us feel the same way about Blackmoor. It is an amazing world!

It is always interesting to learn how people find us here. I wonder if there are more Blackmoor fans out there who still just don't know about us? Are you in contact with anyone else you think might be interested in visiting this place? Please help spread the word

Hi I'm a big fan of Dave and his way of gaming, and have been reading Harvard's blog since way back. *waves to the crowd*

Long time player of D&D and AD&D, but been playing a lot of Pathfinder society lately: My heart still loves the old school material and style!
