Where did Amberwing Come From?
The best green room gang ever. I was the costume mistress for a play where the lead character happened to be a Dungeon Master. Oh yes, that game. He’s the same Tim I wrote about previously, and one day, as we slept/ate/studied/goofed in the green room between classes, he convinced us to start a campaign with him. I only knew how to play a cleric, and since others seemed to know much more than I, you can image how happy I was when my wisdom score roll was 18. Her charisma was 17 and dexterity a 12, but her strength was down in the low single digits. She seemed as fragile as a feather. And because I’m a huge dinosaur fan and had just finished reading about amber, those two things clicked together - Amberwing. She and I spent the next several years enjoying weekends of adventure, falling in love, and finding the person I was becoming. She was there, inspiring the little seeds of creativity that are still yielding fruit today. And friends? I’ve lost a few to the ravages of time, but most are still around and part of this amazing adventure we call life. She’s been a blessing, and for that, I cornered the .com version years ago knowing that the day would come when I’d be ready to let my stories fly.
