Welcome!

Welcome to my 20-Sided Life!

As you’ve probably guessed, this is going to be a blog about table top roleplaying games. 20-Sided Life might be a little bit of a misnomer, because we aren’t just about Dungeons & Dragons. We’re interested in all kinds of roleplaying games. As I look up and take just a quick scan of my bookshelf, I see a huge collection: Almost four dozen D&D books (3.5 & 4E), d20 Modern (along with d20 Future, Past & Apocalypse, and Cyberscape), Warhammer 40K: Dark Heresy, Star Wars Saga Edition, and the Serenity. (Yes, Shadowrunis missing, but I intend to correct that at some point in the future as well.) For settings, I’ve got Eberron (a favorite), the Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, the Iron Kingdoms, Freeport and Pathfinder. Frankly, it’s more than I can hope to play, but it’s certainly not more than I can think about playing…

So, yeah, we like a lot of stuff, and while the mechanics matter in a game, for us it is really about being able to craft a good story. As you can see, we like a lot of different kinds of stories! That’s what makes roleplaying such a great hobby – you don’t have to wait for someone else to give you the story you want to play, and it’s different every time around.

So, settle in, enjoy your visit. As we grow the blog, we hope you’ll tag along with us and share your thoughts on ideas on a hobby we all love.

Thanks,
