This is my gaming circle minus my ACKS players. I am such an asshole. Since they're in the big city now, the players really wanted to know if there were any magic weapons for sale. ACKS ain't 3e or 4e though. There is exactly one magic weapon for sale. I rolled randomly to see what it was and... ...it's a cursed -2 sword. So I told the players there's a weapons dealer/fence who's looking to get rid of a magic sword he's gotten ahold of...cheap. Only 6,000gp when usually a +1 item would be 10,000gp. So far they are not suspicious. They're going to be so pissed at me. I can barely contain my excitement.
It's not an entirely horrible thing. It's almost more awkward when a friend becomes a client.
ReplyDeleteMy job does not do that. Actually the opposite.
ReplyDeleteI have made friends at work, but it took a while for them to realize i wasn't a complete boob.
ReplyDelete100% of my local friends are my co-workers because meeting people as an adult is DIFFICULT.
ReplyDeleteTrue.
ReplyDeleteI am still good friends with a former co-worker and we phone regularly.
ReplyDeleteAnd making new friends in a new city isn't that difficult when there are local gaming groups.
Most of the local gaming groups are people 10+ years younger than me.
ReplyDeleteStraining my suspension of disbelief, but well-written.
ReplyDeleteSo what's the problem with hanging out with younger people, Michael R?
ReplyDeleteNothing inherently wrong with it. Just not the crowd I want to hang out with all the time, y'know?
