Step 2

Now that I’ve gotten through the Mythic Game Master Emulator book, I need to decide which system I wanna start off with.

I suddenly had a bug up my ass to try a system that I hadn’t even considered, so I downloaded the core rulebook to take a look.

But then I told myself that no, you’re going to chose one of the three you started to look at, or at the very least, a system that exists in PSF form on my Kindle Fire Tablet.

Lo and behold, the system I had a bug up my ass to consider is on that tablet.

Heh.

Whether or not I go through with this system over anything else depends on how much I can read of a 300+ page rulebook before I get distracted by the next Shiny Object™.

The system in question:

Blame it on me watching Lawmen: Bass Reeves and The Lone Ranger.

Doctors & Daleks

Great.  Another potential system that I’d like to play, physical edition came in on Friday.

Maybe I’ll just start rolling characters in these systems and play the one that interests me the most.

Close But Indecisive

I’ve hit a snag as I’ve been finishing up reading the Mythic Game Master Emulator.

I can’t decide which system I want to run first.

I thought I had settled on either Dragonbane or Covert Ops, but I’m feeling the pull of something simple/familiar with 5th Edition D&D , Top Secret New World Order, and a couple of others.

I’ll get it all sorted out, eventually.

System: Dragonbane

This one was a tough choice because of the numerous fantasy RPG settings that are available to play.

It was a Kickstarter, so that kinda played into my decision.

In the end, it’s the simple fact that I can play a duck (Mallard) character in this system that made me decided on this one.

Covert Ops Background

System: Covert Ops

This one is still early in the planning stages.  Either an agent or team of agents, rookies or experienced, doing spy stuff.

I’m still not sure if I’m placing the setting in the 1960s, the 1980s, or present day.

And this will probably be the first time that I role play Jake Banner, a character I’ve had rattling around my brain since I was in high school.

First Character

I decided to copy this sheet here,since this is the more appropriate place.

I’m still reading through the rule book for this system, so hopefully I get this (or one of the other solo games) underway fairly soon.

I did roll a starting adventure for this character a month or so ago, but decided to start fresh once the rule book has been read and understood.

Besides, from that initial adventure description, it sounded too much like the beginning of Star Trek Voyager.
