I'm not currently playing a Star Wars Campaign. I am playing DnD though (the geeks old standby). I'm currently searching for the West End Game's Star Wars Books to have on hand.
I don't usually play a character, I usually run the game when I do game. (Currently I'm running a thieve's guild campaign).
Though when I do play Star Wars RPG (of which I haven't for quite some time) I usually play a wookie, and then a technical class of some sort (I'm rather fond of demolitions).
As for the other systems, the only other one that I have played (though I have read through several of the books waaaaaaaay back in the day) was RIFTS. I like RIFTS, it's a little over the top, but very cool.
I'm familiar or have at least heard of, or read about damn near every RPG there is or once was. I had a friend in highschool that had some more obscure ones like TORG and Paranoia. I know about alot of really obscure ones (I know about one RPG that is in a christian fantasy setting and uses passages from the New Testament to calculate the stats and do combat) most of which are from the early eighties.
I am a geek and a dork, and I don't mind.
I'm a firm believer in escapism, to a certain degree anyway.
Movies, books, tv, videogames... entertainment in general. It's all meant for us to get away from it all.
Music, theatre and visual art too... where do you think all the above stuff came from?
Escapism is something that we need, until we're ready to go at it with out that crutch.
Pencil/die RPG's are yet another medium, taking aspects from books and theatre, throwing in imagination of the people and keeping it all together with alot of rules that are almost all mathmatics and probability based.
My preference for gaming is the fall... though my preference for everything is the fall. Fall is my favorite season overall.
I'm looking forward to hearing more about your previous characters Katrina... maybe I'll tell you some about the campaigns I have run... or the characters I've played. Though not right now.
(9:40, you are getting old aren't you :)
Tom.. awe shucks, I'm not going to involve myself with your suggestion (I hope it was a suggestion and not a request), but I will say this: "I love lamp"
