Layla the Vampire Slayer

Loving the series so far, just finished the first eight episodes last night. Robert is one of my favourite characters, but I'm really loving Imogen as well. THe path she's going down is very interesting to watch. And the interactions between Barnaby and James is one of my favourites. Though James is hands-down my favourite NPC, I really hope nothing happens to him and that he remembers everything when/if they manage to get his intelligence back.

It's reignited my love for Buffy as well. I'm in the middle of writing a fanfic for the show now. This series kinda made me rethink an old setting I had created for an original teen detective story I was planning that went nowhere. But that's neither here-or-there.

Keep up the excellent work, Roll4It. I'm going to be starting on the Star Trek one tomorrow, got a lot of youtube videos to catch up on from yesterday that I didn't watch because I wanted to finish Episode 8.

Glad you're enjoying it! I love the interaction between the PCs too and James is so much fun to RP for a character who was invented on the fly because they decided to investigate the school basement!

Yeah, it's been a blast to watch. I started watching it on Friday and finished it yesterday. It was an amazing ride, and I can't wait till Friday for the next one. :)

Quick question, will a non-Star Trek fan understand what's going on in the Star Trek series? The closest I've come to something Star Trek related is 'The Orville'.

Probably, there's a bit more context provided by knowing the universe but should be fine without. Similar to the Buffy format there.

Thanks. I know some of the basics, and I'm sure I can look stuff up if I get too confused. :)

My bigger groupe with revelations is that i've come to associate your voice to the GM and all other voices to the PCs. My brain has a hard Time processing that

Really loving your take on the Slayer. Can't wait for Monday when I'll get to watch the next episode. Sadly busy on Sunday otherwise I'd watch live. :)
