Our group first came together in the Fall of 1995. Huddled in room 1714 in Bennett Tower, in the beautiful college town of Morgantown, West Virginia, 6 young freshmen and their Junior RA made their first GURPS characters.

OK, the first campaign sucked.

Steve made a none-too-weak vampire who had enough psionic abilities to take on the entire group without having to lift his finger. Through a mix of lucky dice rolls and clever tactics, Steve managed to piss off one of the other charaters so badly that, had Steve not taken over his mind and put the weapon in the character's mouth, Steve would have lost the back portion of his skull to a bullet.

Curt made a mage who didn't have every spell in the book, but had enough of the good ones to make himself pretty invincible. Curt hailed from AD&D land, and was admittedly not used to the way GURPS does things. Needless to say, his wizard (modelled after Raistlin from Forgotten Realms) would have made an ass-kicking AD&D character, but as a GURPS character, he was less than suitable for my High Powered Game-Hating ass.
 

But that's all ancient history.  Our new group (with some old players and some new ones) is great.  Our current campaigns are Rifts and Conan, but here's a little about us:
