Welcome to Nathmaria.
In 1988, I met a friend that changed the way I thought about gaming. Just a freshman in college, I sought my place in this big world. Mr. Manning opened my eyes to what a person could become. Involved in many interests, I always made time to game. (For those that aren't familiar with the lingo, this refers to role playing games, such as D&D, however, not limited to it.) Mr. Manning was a fellow gamer. Sometime in my second month, he introduced a few of my friends and me to a system he was crafting. We agreed to play test it for him, although we did not really call it this. What emerged was a new found respect for him as well as what role playing could be. To use other game terms, I went from a rail shooter to open sandbox. He opened a story driven game instead of a planned event driven one. I have used this model ever since. The friends and memories I made have lasted this long. Nathmaria was his world.
Over my time here, I will introduce you to the world, its denizens, and insight into Mr. Manning and my friends. I welcome your comments. I will endeavor to be prompt in my replies. Enjoy.
