LOL!
And, yes, we also get some mentions of both the real world in our virtual
world, and the reverse, and, we have like two separate
campaigns/stories/sets of characters that we sometimes alternate sessions
between, and, main thing is we make sure a person is really interested in
playing for real before we bother getting them to roll up a full on
character, and then let them influence actual parts of the story/campaign,
etc., etc., and that's the other nice thing - both the current, 2 separate
game masters handle their sets of NPC's in such a way that even the
non-player characters have distinct personalities, and, both game masters
have somewhat different approaches themselves, which also makes for a bit of
variety in terms of playing style we try to make use of at different
sessions.
And, along the lines of that one, my secondary character is called Ichabod -
name taken out of old headless horseman story - but he's more of a
craftsman/ship wright, but, he's also damn good with the combo of his
one-handed battle axe, and a round shield.
Stay well

Hay Jacob, I do know what you mean about difficulties introducing people
to a campaigne mid way through.
My mutants and masterminds game has gone on for over three years now,
there is a huge amount of plot and backstory, and it'd be pretty hard for
anyone to join in mid way through, though at the same time this also makes
it a great game to play with a distinct ongoing plot.
Probably if someone else turned up in the area who wanted to play we'd
start another game with them, rather than introducing them into mutants.
Btw, one amusing thing about long time rp players is sometimes they talk
about rp events in their actual lives, which can sound very amusing to an
outsider.
My favourite of these was when two of our players got into an arguement
about one of them owing money for a pizza and the other paying her back.
After the arguement had escalated and lots of references about her
boyfriends lack of reliable repayment were made, she finally burst out in
great disgust with "you! left me chained to the anvil of dispare!"
refering to an incident in a campeigne they both played! that was pretty
funny, and in fairness if someone had left me chained to the anvil of
dispare I'd probably not trust them to pay for a pizza either :D.
Even more ironically, they're getting married in september, though I don't
know whether the anvil of dispare is involved or not, complete
strangeness! lol!
Beware the grue!
Dark.
