okay soooooo
oh if anyone does not know
i am echidna! just btw
so back home we have these kind of games we play called tabeltop games!
which are basically roleplaying and strategy games that you play using a guide book, and you make up your own character to play as and you play through a story
one person is called the game master (or dungeon master since one of the most popular modules is called dungeons and dragons) and they design an adventure for the other players to act out through narration. the game master controls the enemies and the non-player characters that you can meet and talk to on the adventure, and combat is based on rolling dice and each character's individual stats.
it is really fun! :D
my friend ammy and i played a lot with our friends back at home
so we were wondering if anyone here wanted to play a campaign with us!
we are going to play with one of our dm's really old homebrew modules called problem sleuth
its reeeaaaaally old
and about detectives!
i mean seriously the pictures are in black and white and everything O_O
except the candy is colored for some reason :?
idk
but it looks really cool and we have been wanting to try it out!
but dick was all like nooooooo were playing sburb you babies
weh
if you do not know anything about tabletop stuff that is ok!
and me and ammy can teach anybody that wants to learn! :)
and i think this module is basically like easy mode stuff
at least there is not much math
but if there is ammy will probably do it for you :V !
so yeah you guys should try it. itll be reeeaaaally cool!!! <3

Yes, he's not a very good detective. I certainly don't mind giving him a smaller role in the background, or as you said, with mobsters. Perhaps he could get mixed up into some heavy-handed business that he wasn't particularly ready for?

Sounds like a fitting role for Travis. Getting in trouble, right off the get-go!

I don't mind getting him into more trouble at all. It suits him more than you know. He can also take the brunt of a lot violence and awful jokes if it ever comes to that, just throwing that out there.

Oh, if you wish to delve deeper into stats, I assure you that his defense is quite high. He lacks intelligence, but makes up for it with good strength and defense. Also got low resistance to magic, average speed, etc.

This is exactly the sort of role I had in mind for Travis. I do hope this game turns out to be a smashing success. It would be exciting to finally see my character in action.

Excellent. I will patiently wait for your next reply, then.
