I have been in the TTRPG since the late 70's. I cut my teeth on AD&D and quickly found I liked to DM. During my time, before internet, I noticed some missing elements in the mechanics of D&D, also at teh saqme time chose to create a world. Decades later, what had begun as a D&D homemade world with homebrew additions became its own system. For about 30 years, on and off, my system went through revison after revision until recently (geologically speaking :) ), the number of game systems available casued me to finally shelve my game. That said, I have recently begun work on the thing I REALLY wanted to work on, Grenia, the world I created some 40 years ago. Ammassing all my notes, I am putting together the definitive work of the World of Grenia. As for gaming, I do not play anymore for reasons, but the love for Grenia is stronger than ever and has many stories to be told... don't know what they are yet...
