Basics

Write a small introduction to yourself

My name is Sova Alexandr. I am studying at Dnipropetrovsk National University at applied mathematics department. Most time I am spending by programming. I like role playing. I have a lot of experience of playing a table modules (with other living beings) in multiple role playing systems such as <a href="http://www.wizards.com/dnd/">D&D</a>, <a href="http://www.white-wolf.com/">VTM</a>, <a href="http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/">GURPS</a>. I know what does good play mean and how much an interesting story is necessary. I know a good balance examples and how to generate quests. Also I have a lot of experience at live role playing games and of course computer games. I am familiar with C and C++ programming languages and unified modeling language (UML).
