What is a Play by Post Game?

A play by post game (PbP game) is an online text based role-playing game in which players (also called writers) interact with each other in a predefined environment via text. It is a subset of the online role-playing community which caters to both gamers and creative writers. PbP games may be based on other role-playing games in all types of genres. Green Dragon Adventures so happens to be high fantasy in a medieval type setting.

Is it like Dungeons & Dragons or Pathfinder?

It may seem like a Dungeons & Dragons game, yet it really is a bit easier in this perspective. You don't have to spend a long time working on the character creation or have to carry a bag of dice to play this game.

What is an action spreadsheet?
