*proudly shows his Gamers Anonymous name badge*
Amracil is the name. "Am" to my friends.
I started "using" when I was pretty young. Boxed set at first. I thought it was harmless. *shakes head*
Next thing I knew I was painting miniatures, worrying about how many clear coats I should put on the wizard because his imp familiar has got to look right! *takes a deep breath*
Yeah. I was in bad shape. I was able to lead a more or less normal life for years. You know... went to the meetings, called my sponsor regularly, the whole thing.
And then NWN came out. It was too much. *looks at the floor, heaving a sigh* It was inhuman. *looks around the room, his fingers steepled, but twitching* I found myself unshaven, limping off to work after playing all night because the party needed me and I was the only wizard! *swallows, breathing in ragged gasps, his eyes protruding slightly until he regains his composure*
And now there is NWN2. *eyes fill with tears* It's a thirst I can't quench. I wake up in the middle of the night with my hands hovering over my body, my fingers curled as if on a keyboard... *shudders*
Thanks for the coffee and doughnuts. I am glad to be here. *forces a smile* I am living one day at a time.
