Before I was a twinkle in my fathers eye my parents met at a haunted house and began gaming together. Though I was not conceived on the gaming table I may has well been. Sitting in a high chair around the table, trying to eat the dice and miniatures the DM would integrate my actions into the game if I disrupted the table. Beyond then, I grew up fascinated in watching my step father play EverQuest and even sitting at the gaming table with my mother and step father at their gaming store.
You could say I grew up around this, because that's exactly what happened. And my passions blossomed until now all I can think about is how to further my knowledge, understanding, and passion for gaming in all forms. Video game, MMO, TCG, and tabletop all alike. :D
