"Let's try playing God" - a game master's guide to RPG So here we are at my last publication about pen and paper RPGs. So I introduced you somehow to RPGs in general and also gave a few guidelines in case you would like to take part in an RPG as a player. Although I believe that it is better to start your experience with this kind of entertainment as a player, some people may want to try being a game master immediately. Before I start I must underline that in my opinion the GM and players are equally responsible for the outcome of the meeting and both need to make an equal effort so that everybody has a really good time. And believe me, I had some best times in my life with my friends during our RPG sessions. That said, the truth is a GM has lots more of preparations to do. A player needs only to prepare their character, maybe think over some elements and/or factors that are beyond that single hero, but still concern him (Does he have any family? Maybe he has a...

"So... How do I attack?" - a player's guide to RPG Well, I know it's not the case, but let's just say that my previous publications made you interested in RPG (yeah, right... xD).

Often the GM will feel like creating an adventure in the world of a single book or movie. So now we come to the second part of the setting which I personally define as the 'style' of the session. Will it be combat focuse...

Falling down the rabbit whole - first glance at RPG. Through my presentations I would like to share with you my hobby and passion. All three will be dedicated to it and will discuss the various aspects of it and some advice for people who would like to give it a try. But what am I talking about? Nothing else than RPG, which stands for Role Playing Games. I'm sure that this topic makes a 100% on your geek alert, but I shall not falter! Before I go on I would like to make it clear I am not talking about computer games. RPG computer games, or cRPG have been created to somehow create a  possibility of enjoying the regular Pen and Paper RPG's without being forced to make appointments with other people. Other people. This is something I think should be pointed out. A real Role Playing Game, called pen and paper as I mentioned a moment ago, is something you do with a group of friends. Basically the idea is to role play characters, heroes of an adventure in a more or less realis...
