Real World Info


What

Pai-Lau is a land if my own devising. I created it after my freshman year in college. I was stuck in an office job, and living with my parents over the summer. I had basically nothing to do from 5-11pm every day, so I dreamt up this mad, mad prime material plane. I drew the maps first, and it all kinda grew from there.

And yes. I got the name from Virtua Fighter 2. If you email me to tell me that, I'll boot you in the ass.

Where

This campaign is based at Caltech, in Pasadena, CA. It's always sunny, and there's tons of beautiful women. That's why we stay indoors for 12 hours at a time. We all are (or were) Caltech students. Some of us have graduated, and yet, for some reason, haven't left.

When

The campaign world had a brief (and ill-fated) start in the summer of '97. There, I ended up having to mix into somebody else's campaign. Unfortunately, we had 2 distinctly different DMing styles, so it ended pretty badly. However, it did give my campaign a bit of a history that it wouldn't have had otherwise.

About 6 months later (~300 years, game time), I started a new campaign in that world. This is the campaign that is running now. It is a ripe 2 years old.

We currently play once a week, usually on Sundays (1pm - 9pm).

Why

Because we love the thrill of playing the sometimes complicated, and always dramatic lives of the medievil adventurer. Plus, we like kickin' the shit out of stuff.
