The Saga of Angry Guy- Chapter the First

[vindicair]

I have always harbored an interest in D&D. Something about the process of design, the concept behind creating a new persona for oneself appeals to me. With that in mind, I suppose it was only natural for me to eventually undergo the transition from player to dungeon master. I digress, though- this series is less about my experience with the game,

Iiii would have started to get concerned when they said they needed to leave off the medication to stand being there O.o

[hobokitten]

I actually understand this one, my husband as ADHA, and I have ADD, and neither of us take meds because they mess with our personalities really bad. I get even more lethargic and depressive than I am normally, and he gets really quick to anger. But then again, we take steps to manage out problems with out medication.
If he was falling asleep while playing, he could od what I do and draw, and my husband and I play using Fantasy Grounds so we are all actually at our computers, and he browses the internet at the same time as playing.

Fantasy Grounds? What is?

[hobokitten]

Sadly, Angry dude sounds like my husband... But angrier. But then again my husband would be a fairly decent Deadpool. He plays good comical characters, he sucks at seriousness, but hey Krug the gay half-orc barbarian was fun to be around.
Angry guy does not sound like fun to be around :C

[vindicair]

Oh, just you wait. I haven't even gotten NEAR to the worst part yet.

Also, that character sounds quite excellent and hilarious. People are definitely way too serious when it comes to games like this. Even in the most dramatic, epic fantasy works, you need SOME comedy.

Krug was awesome XD He had a blanky, this tiny scrap of cloth that barely covered his bicep. He was the only person my cleric liked, due to the fact that we had a mindflayer, a annoyingly 'holier than thou' 'bronze dragon who doesn't know he's a dragon' who looked like an elf, and a overly grabby halfling neko rogue.

This guy sounds pretty bad though :C

As I've said....you've not heard the half of it. This is just the introduction.

The current party in my main session consists of a sex-crazed paladin, a perverted fat cat-elf who speaks broken common, a mildly sociopathic dragonblood prankster, a confused druid who's still trying to figure out what she's doing there, a chronologically dyslexic time-traveller, and an ill-fated actor with about as much luck as a broken mirror underneath a step ladder with a black cat in front of it.

Amusing characters just make the game that much more fun to play.

I can't believe you kept him in your game after that first incident. Physical violence isn't something you should have to tolerate from your 'friends' when you RP with them.

[turkish_coffee]

But he's mentally disabled! And off his meds! That's like a "get out of everything, ever free" card.

[candidgamera]

Cops, you should call them.

I have severe ADD, myself. I've trained myself to live without medication and to focus. This fellow is using it for excuses, the way I see it.

[dimitrinabokov]

Agreed. With me, I've found the easiest way is to just let myself focus on several things in rapid succession (which has led to some interesting study sessions, but eh). It's worked so far, and I haven't had to be on meds for a couple years now.

Even on meds, I was never all that angry, and I was on Adderal and Concerta (Ritalin's just got too many issues), so I have no idea what this dude's supposed problem is o_O

[vindicair]

His medication WAS Ritalin. I was told that might have something to do with things.
