THIS GIRL IS WONDERFUL.
Nope, I'm not going into the details. Just accept it.

I unfortunately have tonsilitis at the moment which hurts. Swallowing is something I have to brace myself for now. You all take it for granted! ;) I hope I get better soon.

Have been working on my dissertation some more and handed in a draft chapter today. It's not brilliant but it is a start.

Have been thinking that it has been far too long since I played some tabletop roleplay. I need to get some Call of Cthulhu going.

Perhaps it is time for me to unveil my RPG Masterplan.

There is an RPG named Nobilis. It is beautiful, masterful and expansive. But these are also problems for a geek like me. I would want to craft a campaign so perfect, so epic and poetic that it would be my masterpiece. Unfortunately it takes a whole session just to generate one character and as for writing such a campaign that doesn't resort to cliches and is clever, well, you could write a book for less effort (and many authors do, kerpow!).

My Masterplan would go thusly. All my trusted tabletop mates would generate a character for this game. Now, the chances of them all being in one place is nigh impossible therefore when I see each of them I run a short (or long) session with each.

The result would either be a masterpiece of roleplay with such an epic, sweeping story as to be worthy of Homer, Vigil, etc or a stressful disaster.

Still, it's a plan.
