[quote=henrypotema] Do you keep your roleplaying a secret from those you know in real life? Your friends, family? Are there some who do know, others who don't? If you do, why? (just curious!) [/quote] I keep it secret because I lead three separate lives. At work, I am a man's man, full of gruff, grizzle and bravado to portray my dominance as an alpha male to my colleagues. I also grow my beard to help this image. I talk about nothing other than the amount of beer I consume, the difficulties of trying to find a decent car insurer, the rising cost of living and current political events. On a night out, I am the funny guy who takes nothing seriously and pokes fun at people for a whole range of reasons, sometimes ending in scruffs with some of the more sensitive victims. I believe I am seen as "cool" and "fun" to hang with, and appear as your average male. At home I am Garador, level 7 Paladin with a hankering for some goblin blood. Never shall the three meet in any one place, in case it destroys the space-time continuum.
