Dirty Ears

Hello and welcome to Dirty Ears! This blog is entirely about pen and paper roleplaying games, specifically and most often Dungeons and Dragons 4th Edition and Shadowrun 4th Edition, though there’s always the possibility that more could get covered based on interest from me and the readers.

I started playing D&D4 quite recently, so I’m still new to the game. I’m still in my first campaign as a player and have never DMed but I’m looking forward to trying both of these things out as I continue to get more familiar with the game. Currently, in the campaign I’m playing, I play as a Dragonborn Cleric, but I’m sure that I’ll tell you all more about him later on.

As for Shadowrun, I’ve never actually played it, just started reading the source books for 4th Edition and find myself intrigued by the system at large. I hope to gain more insight and actually be able to play it eventually, though at this point I don’t’ have a gaming group for it. I may be able to play on IRC though, as I found a really neat group on IRC over on #Undernet.  So we’ll see how that all goes…

Anyway, I started this blog because I wanted to do something that would allow me to think and plan, talk about, and otherwise discuss the games that I’ve been enjoying so much lately. After reading some of Critical Hits and Musings of  a Chatty DM, I’ve decided that I wanted to join the ranks of blogging pen-and-paper freaks annd so here it is. As for the name of the blog, that’s a whole different story that will have to be told at a later date.

Either way, welcome to Dirty Ears and I hope that you get as much enjoyment out of reading this as I do out of writing it.
