t begins secret plot to help arrange super awesome LARP with super awesome (and as yet mostly undetermined) people just for Alex
Oh, crap. Did I say that out loud?
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

See, the rational gamers I know are in DIFFERENT STATES. Because hey, getting MM and Sean into a vampire LARP with us would be FUN.

But the question is, would we resurrect Skarrin and Timory, or would we go nutty and create new characters?

Skarrin
Never ever ever again. Being in that character headspace was both a symptom of, and a cause of, my own psychological dysfunction in the early 90s. I'm never going back into that space again; the Evil Overlord is about as close as I wanna get.

If you can find a small crew of rational gamers

I am completely rational, and will kill any man, woman or treefrog that says otherwise.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
In the words of Niles Crane, "Don't you dare call me irrational! You know that makes me crazy!"

There's rational, and there's gamer, and then there's rational gamer.
2 out of 3 is okay.

I would join in a game of Republic of Rome. I would however caution that my experience running BSG suggests it's harder (and certainly more work for the coordinator) to manage a forum game where players don't own the game themselves.
