Introduction
Like most gamers, I started RPGing with Dungeons and Dragons. For me it was specifically AD&D 2nd edition, with the classic Deities & Demigods that contained Forbidden Knowledge. I was introduced to GURPS in 1990 and was soon running games in a variety of genres and worlds. I converted all my D&D NPCs, adventures, and other data to GURPS format. I've only returned to the D&D system once or twice since then and as a player only. I'm a serious Steve Jackson loyalist, a bit of a zealot even (I was a MIB for a while), and enjoy INWO, Car Wars, Ogre, and Munchkin.
As a GM my games tend more toward role-playing and problem-solving than number-crunching combat or Monty Hall hoarding (though I am generous with character points awards and reasonable material gains). Most of my campaigns are grounded in realism, but aren't by any means staked to the ground. My inspiration in planning games covers a lot of territory, and I put a great deal of planning and research into my campaigns. I view GMing as a kind of interactive storytelling and hope that my games achieve a level of action and intrigue akin to a novel or movie.
