Hmm where to begin...
I was born at a young age and immediately began to regret it.
Okay SERIOUSLY NOW... My name is John and I'm 40-ish. Been doing RPGs since I was 12 or there-abouts and never really stopped. I'm from a military family so I grew up on military bases. Started playing Super Hero RPGs Way the hell back in Champions 2nd edition and Marvel Super Heroes. I attended college in Virginia, got married (IT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA AT THE TIME), divorced, relocated to the family 'base of operations' in Corpus Christi, Texas. I currently work as network admin - computer sorceror for a real estate title company.
I cut my Play via email in the Global Guardians PBEM, where I had just managed to get my characters approved when we had a Retcon and moved from around 2024 to current day. My most successful character was a teenage speedster named Kid Zoom (ah good times, running around Paris and leaving KZ shaped dents in the cars he'd crash into).
My fiancee, Shelly will be joining us here sometime as we tend to pursue activities as a couple, from our regular Saturday night table top RPG game (Pathfinder Early Eberron) to World of War-crack-craft, where we hang our hats on a PVPRP server cause our Troll-centric RP guild is awesome. Here's our painfully out of date website http://www.blackmoontribe.com where I'm known as 'Bantaro' or 'Do-Not-Follow Bantaro'. Virtual worlds give me the direction sense of a lemming. City of Heroes, Left 4 Dead, Eve Online, I will find a cliff to accidentally die from it.
I'm still working on the background for the first character I'll submit but I'm looking at 'BLATANTLY STEALING' the Super-Soldier archetype built by Ecalsneerg. Something kind of with a Bronze Age of comics feel.
The Bronze Star
