Hello, New Guy Here

VahnXIII

Hello everyone,

I'm a long time lurker of these forums and decided to finally speak up. Loved playing BG 15 years ago and I enjoy it to this day (even moreso than some of the modern RPG's out there).

Anyways, I just wanted to stop in and say hi. I'll be contributing to conversations on this forum moving forward as this seems to be one of the best online communities I've read.

Cheers,

Vahn

Welcome! I'm not a huge contributor to the forums but have been here since the beginning and can say that 99.99999% of the forum goers are great people to talk with and are very open to the sharing of ideas.

Welcome, welcome. Roll up roll up! SEE! the amazing mummified gnome or gnomified mummy. WITNESS! the amazing magics of wizards old and new, wise and foolish, heralded and rightfully unknown. HEAR! the melodic tunefulness of the resident bards. TREMBLE! at the sights of all manner of creatures, from slimes to mushrooms to hamsters to ferret lords and beyond. FEEL! the wrath of the mighty hammers if you say something mean or wrong or ugly. SMELL! the....*sniff sniff* actually, that's just me. I haven't bathed in a while. Carry on.

But seriously. Welcome, enjoy and participate. We'll all be the richer for it.

Welcome! I don't post heaps but am on here constantly. This is pretty much the best online community I know of!

@bengoshi‌ or @elminster‌ basically know everything about these games too so don't be surprised if they're first to answer any questions (I don't think they ever sleep)

We simply use WIsh resting all the time : )

@VahnXIII , welcome! Glad you've joined! It means so much for all of us, "oldies" of the forum, to learn that our contribution is appreciated.

Hope you will enjoy interacting here! Lots of cookies, mushroom and broccoli for you (not mentioning knowledge and jokes)!

Salutations! Were there 12 other Vahns before you?

Welcome! It does my heart good to see so many new faces on the forum lately. I hope many more will take a moment to say hello. Come, come, we never bite unless asked to.

Haha, no there were not 12 before me. I typically name my characters after ones from RPG's I previously played. Legend of Legaia was my first console RPG and it has a special place in my heart. The blue-haired main character's name is Vahn. I also loved Final Fantasy 7, so the XIII comes from RedXIII, the feline warrior from Cosmo Canyon. My character name in Baldur's gate, an elven fighter/mage is Cidrendyl or Cid for short. Named after the spear-wielding, profanity slinging pilot from Rocket Town in Final Fantasy 7. Also my avatar is Locke, the "treasure hunter" from Final Fantasy 3.

I love classic RPG's whether they're on the PC or on an aged console!
