Greek Game Redone - Session One (and some history)

Well tonight, after a long time of waiting, we were able to, finally, get started on Greek Game.


Greek Game is a brain child of my friend Jester, who started this game way back in 2005. I've been involved with the game since it's start and my Character, Daphne, has gone though MANY MANY changes, mainly because one of the players, Kivan, wanted to be the STAR and to do that, he wanted to be the class Daphne was.


When we first started, Daphne was going to be a bard. Xena was a main influence on my characters at the time and I wanted Daphne to be similar to Gabrielle from the show. However, I was (and still am) New to DnD and I didn't know how to use Bardic Music right (according to Kivan). And instead of letting me learn, he basically rebuilt Daphne where the bard part was no longer involved. Daphne has gone though MANY MANY changes that I can't remember what she was during the multiple rebuilds/restarts of the game at different levels, that finally we settled on Barbarian and she is still that race. Many players left and some joined till the last time we ran game we had Daphne, Lysander, Zotikos, Kivan, Laurel, Gregorio and Aloysis.


Anyways, about 2 years ago, we got an email from Jester, saying that Kivan had hacked into her email accounts and what not and she just ended her friendship with him (He is a major @$$ and I could go on and on about him, but that's not what this blog post is about). She wanted to know who would be willing to continue with game reguardless of Kivan. Since my Fiance and I disliked Ryan and wished to continue without him, we were totally up for it. Unfortunately, life happened and got in the way of all of us to prevent to play game


Now, 2 years after the fact, we have started again, this time at Level 1 (Never in all the restarts did we start at level 1). and the best, it's without Kivan. I was able to build Daphne as Barbarian, and actually didn't have to have anyone build her for me or make corrections, unlike before, when someone built her for me because I was "Too New". and unlike before, I've added werewolf affliction to my character so she has a level adjustment of 2 at first level. ((I'll post her bio in a post in the future))


As I said before, Tonight was the first game. The only player characters currently are Daphne (me), Lysander (My fiance) and Zotikos (Milante) We were all Sacrifices to the Minotaur of Knossos. We have arrived at the palace and are waiting to be thrown into the Labyrinth to be sacrifices to the bull beast. unfortunately we didn't have enough time to actually get out of the starting area so to speak so not much memorable happened to us, only that the "womanizing" Lysander got lucky first game with a serving girl. ((*Daphne in the background groaning in disgust*)).

The best part is, we had fun, more fun, I venture to say, than we have ever had in a session of Greek Game. ((except for the Bull Sh-t moment in one game that Daphne had.... needless to say, coming from a mild-manner shy girl, it was.... memorable))

 Jester is also an artist, Here's a better rendering of Lysander than before (see his pic at bottom of my blog.) She made the comment that this is very fan service-y. And I admit, it is. *can't wait to see how Daphne turns out*
