Beyond Terra Firma

Originally, this was going to be a blog for me to lay out the specifics for a fantasy roleplay setting. Considering how long it's been since my last entry and how little I've been thinking about fantasy roleplay, I think I ought to open this up to roleplaying in general. Currently, I've got one ongoing game in action and another waiting to get started.

In Dark Heresy, I'm playing Haxtes - a tech-priest and former acolyte of Inquisitor Karkalla. I say former because Karkalla met an unfortunate end during the events of the Tattered Fates adventure. We've picked up where that adventure left off and our GM is running us through a homebrew campaign. After a rigorous Inquisitorial investigation, our group was assigned to Inquisitor Octus Enoch and his Interrogator, Vanir. We are on a mission to Tigris IV to not only investigate a possible incursion by the Ruinous Powers, but also to prove ourselves free of the taint that claimed our former master. I'll get into what's been going on with DH in a later entry, but suffice it to say that I am very excited to be playing Haxtes again and I absolutely love this game.

I'll be stepping behind the screen for Rogue Trader (another Warhammer 40K rpg) later this month. I picked up a copy of The Frozen Reaches last week and have been feverishly going over it and getting more and more excited. My last endeavor to run RT was a module and it went...ok. My players seemed to enjoy themselves, but I consistently felt unprepared and ill-equipped. I'm attacking this campaign with a lot more fervor and attention to detail. Rogue Trader is easily my favorite of the three 40K rpgs and I really want to do it justice.

So basically, I'm opening up this blog to all of my roleplaying proclivities. Hoepfully this means I'll be posting much more often and that I'll have a sort of living record of my various campaigns and ideas.
