Updates and Considerations

For the first time since October, I have made some posts in my Book Log. Reviewed the Iron Tower by Dennis McKiernan and the Runes of Elfland by Brian Froud and Ari Berk. Two posts hardly make up for the lax attitude I've taken about the log. Because I've yet to post a true review of any of the Wheel of Time books since Shadow Rising and I'm on Crown of Swords. Somewhere I know I made a handwritten review of the Fires of Heaven... and I really shouldn't delay with making my thoughts on a series since they can easily be confused with each other's events.

In any case, need to do something about those books in particular and put up my movie reviews of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and the Goblet of Fire. The mini-rant I did on Goblet doesn't count in my opinon. Not to forget the seven other book reviews I have set up as drafts in the Book Log either... I'm such a slacker.

I'm really excited about being in a RPG. I had the chance to back in high school, but having limited transportation and personal issues with the DM prevented me from taking part. I was always facinated with the books, the illustrations and the detail that went into the most mundane seeming things.

The first game is going to be Earthdawn. Its the one game that both my husband and one of his friends have the most material on. I've already gotten a couple characters rolled up for it before from when we thought about starting a game that never happened. But new chances deserve new characters. Unfortunately can't afford new dice either but I think three sets are enough.

I'm pretty set on T'skrang. I'd thought about maybe troll, but I don't think I'd be able to play the honor aspect to the hilt as I'd wish when I get more familiar with how to play. There is a difference with being aware of what happens and having expereince with it. After last night's reading through spell descriptions (decided on a caster class since for whatever reason I feel more comfortable with that than melee) I'm deciding in between wizard and elementalist. I can't really bring myself to nethermancer, I have no gut reaction to it at all. Sorry no links to the discriptions, the only site I was able to find with them was a geocities site- b l e h!

But I guess I'll have a character sheet up before the end of the weekend. I suppose I'll even post it up here. :)
