What made you choose to join the Roleplaying Society?
I joined the roleplaying society in hopes to meet new people and hopefully try out some new TTRPGS I've never played before! :D
 

Do you have a favourite character that you have created or played in a roleplaying game? Tell us more about them?
My favourite character, is probably my current Dungeons and Dragons character for a Baldur’s gate descent into Avernus campaign I'm in, named Niamh Quinn a Eladrin Hellrider trying to save her home from the 9 hells, I’m quite attached to her as I’ve written quite an extensive backstory and have been playing the most confusing but fun multiclass combination of Bloodhunter, Warlock and Artificer, meaning that mechanically she can kind just do whatever I want combat wise, being able to cast spells or play in melee range.
 

Think about the most epic moment of a campaign you’ve participated in, what made it so special? What was your favourite part about it?
A few years ago, in a Dungeons and Dragons campaign I was playing in our Giant subclass barbarian had what could only be described as a kaiju battle against the boss of the Dungeon we were in.
 

Is there a specific roleplaying game you enjoy the most? Which one and why?
As a massive fan of JRPGs my favourite tabletop RPG is probably Fabula Ultima as it quite faithfully recreates a lot of the fun of playing a JRPG as a tabletop RPG you can play with friends, without having needlessly complex rules.
 

If you could live in any fictional world, which one would it be and why?
I’d quite like to just live in pelican town from Stardew Valley, it seems pretty chill.
 

What's your favourite board game or video game, and what makes it so enjoyable for you?
My favourite video game is probably Limbus Company because I really love the games setting, narrative and characters, its overall just an amazing game.
 

If you could have any superpower for a day, what would you choose and how would you use it?
Being able to stop time could be quite useful for a day, I could actually have to time to finish or at least start any of the important things I've been putting off for ages.
