In fact, I am anxious to use them.
One of the results of playing Dragon Age: Origins has been this: I am inspired to create a quest-based adventure for my Dungeons & Dragons groups. I have been working on it when I snatch some bits of free time, and it's coming along nicely.
And one of the results of working on D&D is a desire to buy something; something game related!
For those of you who have not played D&D, there is very little on-going expense required for playing the game. However, a quirk of my very American personality is that I get a kick out of buying things. So, while I would not be required to buy cool graph paper for the game, I do. And while I have more than enough dice, there are simply times when I feel like buying more. It's not sensible. But's it's a fact.
There is no true game store in Rochester these days -- for three years now! [I'm sorry - Games by James is a chain store, so it's not a true game store. And it has no in-store place to play games, so it's ruled out for two reasons.] The closest thing we have is Book Review, so the Dudes and I stop there on some lunch breaks to browse, to be tempted, and occasionally to purchase something.
We've been there a few times in the past two weeks, and it's during that time period when I've been creating the Splintered Worlds campaign. So when we visited yesterday, I felt compelled to buy dice. I saw two sets which called to me: Green-Purple (w/ gold numbers) & and Copper-Green (white.) I was in no mood to choose between the two, so I bought them both.
They are so pretty!
I can hardly wait to roll them in a game.
Let's play!
