So, after all these years I finally found this place. How time flies.
Story Time:
Around 2003 I read some of the old Steve Jackson choose your own adventure rpg books. (The sorcery series to be specific) and found out about Firetop Mountain and eventually warlocks. I played the game a bunch and was alright but not spectacular so I introduced a few of my friends to game. Most of them played a couple of games and then disappeared. However one stuck around and decided to embrace the role playing bit of warlocks a bit more and get to talk to people on a regular basis and founded the Coven of the Black Rose. Eventually I stopped playing and a couple years later I randomly picked the game back up again played a few more games and then didn't think about it again until last week, when I was suddenly inspired to play again.
I found these forums and after a few days of trying to figure out what I was missing the parent site as well. There is much more in depth thought here into the intricacies of the game then I had considered previously.
My performance has been pretty poor since I got back (mis-targeted spells, trying to get f paralyzed as a defense in paraFC all sorts of stupid stuff) but every game it gets a little better.
I asked relsqui to come back and play so I'd have an opponent I knew so I could get through whole games at once rather then waiting for people somewhere out there in Internet land to take a turn. She said maybe, at least she logged in once.
