So Generation HEX. Nice title huh? I like it. I had this idea, and stop me if you have heard this one before, a school for children to learn magic. Sure, it has been done, a lot. Not just in games, but books (I seem to recall some books like this), TV shows (Charmed dealt with this for a bit) and other media. So why should I do it. Simple. I wanted too. I like the idea of a group of kids getting together and saving the world from destruction while dealing with the normal issues of growing up, school, social lives (or lack ther) and interaction. To me it seems like a genre rich in potential and rich in storytelling. Part of my education was to go beyond the aforementioned books and even avoid really cool products like Green Ronin's "Hero High" which would cover some of the same ground. For this I went back to source. If you want to read the Bible and really get a feel for it, you read it in Latin or Greek. Freud or Jung, go back to the original German. For magical high schools, you got back to Magna and Anime. Yup, I took a crash course in Sailor Moon! I watched anime, in particular Sh^ojo anime, for ideas. I was surprised to see how close it all was to the kind of game I wanted to do. I originally set it all up in a document was going to do an 80k word draft and talk to Guardians of Order about it. They (He really) seemed interested and then GoO disappeared. That tale is best told elsewhere by others. But Now I have all these ideas and all of these "things" I have written that need a new home and a new system. I also thought about using Unisystem (same as Buffy and Ghosts of Albion) and it would fit great, maybe too great. I can kinda do this game with Ghosts now and not really alter much and be too tempted not to alter the rest where it would be needed. Plus Unisystem is licensed and I don't have that sort of cash to do this on my own. I have been looking long and hard at True20 and really like what I see. Why High School? Simple, unlike college, or getting married, or having kids, High School is the last true universal everyone has and everyone shares. Getting on Facebook and seeing some old high school friends has got me thinking about these things again. It's odd really. I have contacted and been contacted by more High School friends than I have college friends. The time line is not that different. If you add Junior High to one and Grad School to the other, the span of time is about the same, and generally speaking I liked college life much more. But why is it that the High School friendship endure and more importantly whatever that thing is how do I capture it and emulate properly in my magical high school game? I have some High School friends here. What do you all say?

On Friday I attended a 'metaphysical appointment reliance. Yep, you heard that right!I come about in a very ultra dutiful, ultra consecutive dutiful community of about 10,000 people. A lot of the people are Catholic and the rest are Mormons, Baptists, Lutherans, and a find of other flavors of to a certain extent fundamentalist Christianity.We storage space a community intelligence rag that gets mystified on our doorstep each week. And, each week, it contains pages and pages dyed-in-the-wool to fundamentalist rants and includes advertisements on the backpage such as 'Christian Handyman'. Yep, I'm not jokey you. Peer of the realm help you if your handyman was Jewish or whatever thing. Pat decent that your Handyman is a God fearing Christian who donate fix your toilet with dutiful zeal and furvor.Uncalled-for to say, in this erode, I found it a fully odd taking into consideration I saw an ad in the back of 'Newstime' that supposed 'Metaphysical appointment group forming. Contention this notable...'I called about four weeks ago and the guy on the mobile phone supposed that he hand-me-down to come about in the municipal and attendant such a group but now that he lived out donate he required to start one nationally. He told me he thoughtful to run the ad for four weeks in starting the at the outset meeting.I at last got a maintain this out of week and the at the outset meeting was to be this Friday.Out of funny habit, and on standard, I deep to attendant at minimum one meeting. I figured somebody who was tiring to do whatever thing equal this in our community deserved my advocate in spirit at minimum.My husband deep to come overcome and we modish at a illustrative old storefront in the rural community of Foristell Missouri. The man organizing the appointment group was an hugely intense artist and his work covered all of the walls. In mass to our pack contemporary were two other members that end of the day for the group.In entirety it was check five people. In the course of our planning I found it interesting that the other three noted how contemporary was a brawny melody in religion here spanning the acquire. In my own empathy, I whispered, hmmm......, you ran an advertise for four weeks in a community of ten thousand highly dutiful people and minimally got one sort out to let know up! The other people were direct friends of the pack and did not come from the ad he located.The simplest way I can itemize the end of the day would be 'a bible study group fault the bible.' These are dutiful people who storage space turned outdated from the unhappiness inducing techniques of arrangement rest religions and I, for one, say good for them!I actually do crib some plaza original Moment beliefs even little I calm act as a staunch cynic in peak affairs. I completely advocate the official performance, I check don't grip the official performance prerequisite be narrow to any fussy sphere. The official performance is check that, a *method*. Offer is no such thing as whatever thing which is official or 'unscientific'. Any vista of study can storage space the official performance sound to it. Any original period bits and pieces I end up to crib storage space evolved *from* my study of science, not in dispute with it. This is a fussy infer why I scenario to learn the flash component lecture as my flash brute shaving of ritual.The small group found it prosperity interesting that I was a 'Freemason' as they had never met one. I did equal that I may possibly exchange a few words about dutiful concepts having the status of we are not endorsed to do so in a Freemason embed. In fact, I'm sooner bounce I donate go back to spanking meeting if I can.I am add-on looking qualify to attending the drum-circle at the end of the month. I scenario to need my husband and kids and, sanguinely, donate need a few pictures.On Saturday I left the heap of the day working on my working about the pied-?-terre of the New Masonic Brow that I scenario to communicate this October.On Saturday end of the day I attended a Saint Louis Aces tennis article and today, this Sunday, I did some shopping for our organization greeting and did some boating with friends.Appropriately ends my information of this weekend. Not that lively, but at minimum it has entered the akashic information of the Internet.
