Introduction (Olof)

Hello!

My name is Isak but I usually use my middle name Olof as a nickname on the internet.

I work in IT during the day and have a 2.5 year old son. Role playing is an old hobby that I have returned to at times in my life since my teens. I am now just over 42 years old. I have played role playing games such as D&D, and a couple of Swedish role playing games. By the way, I am from Sweden.

Since I have limited time for hobbies, I thought I would try playing role playing games in text form. One of my interests besides role playing is also writing, so it feels like "killing two birds with one stone". I hope to have time to meet some of you and have fun together.

Hello! Welcome to Gamersplane!

Welcome to GP, Olof!

Welcome! Tell us about these Swedish games you've played. I'm currently running Symbaroum (or rather, Runs of..., the D&D 5e variant), and have played most of the Free League Publishing games, but which Swedish games did you play?

Welcome to GP!

Cheers! I'm in similar circumstances and PbP has been great for scratching the role-playing and creativity itches without the time commitment of a regular game. Hope you can find a game you like soon!

Welcome to the community, Olof!

Welcome :)

Draka och Demoner now known as DragonBane :)

Welcome Aboard!

Thanks!

I played Drakar och Demoner (eng DragonBane), and one called Eon IV (not sure if it will be released on english). Eon is one of the better game systems if you ask me. Symbaroum I have read and own but never played. Mutant is another game from free league, that I also played. Not sure if it will be sold as an english version.

Welcome to the GP community, Olof!

Welcome, Olof! Since you're also a writer, you'll find play-by-post is a very rewarding mode of play indeed! I'm glad you found us. Cheers!

Dragonbane is pretty popular in my circle here in my part of Canada.

Mutant Year Zero I've played here on GP briefly, thanks to @bedzoneII, and it has robust English language support for many supplements.

I'll have a look for English versions or reviews of Eon IV, thanks!

Welcome!

Welcome. A writer friend of mine was involved with Trudvang so sitting on those books but still not cracked them open.
