Awesome. I think you will appreciate chronicling your adventures.
We base experience on participation, so each game counts towards leveling. You need one game to got to level 2, two more to got to level 3, three for 4, ect.
You can earn a bonus game by writing up the adventure. I have one character that I have his entire campaign written down and I just wish we would have started earlier because we had some great adventures back in the day.
We are gaming the next two weekends so I will add my tales. GM is running an adventure based on the Romans wiping out the druids.
