Since I was working very hard for these 2 months on my amateur zin (in Japanese, of cource), I cannot read/write much English as this mailing list. (For me, Reading English is a spirit magic, while Writing English is a Cult magic which cost my soul to use.)

Sorry sir, you're not the lasy one. OK, let's begin my introduction.
TRIVIA:
I am 20 years old (I suppose I am the youngest in this Digest,
right?). I am a student in the University of Tokyo, the most famous
university in Japan. Though I am in the College of Arts and Sciences
now, I'm going to belong to the Faculty of Law this April, to major
in public law of Japan.
(It doesn't mean that I will be a B.A. this spring. In u-tokyo,
the College of Arts and Sciences is 2 years course. Every student
must belongs to it first, and then go to other faculties to decide
his major.)
I started playing RPG 6 years ago, and the system is D&D, the only game I could read in Japanese that day. By now, more and more games were translated into Japanese, so we Japanese now have freedom to choose. Lucky enough. I came across RuneQuest in my highschool years, that time I play it as only a player, not a master. But its World Settings and many cults really fascinated me. In April 1993, I entered the university, and there joined the RPG club of my univ.. The club has some fame, because the member of it very contributed to introduce RQ to Japan. I started playing RQ frequently from that spring (as a Yelmario player), and that summer, I was invited to the Japanese RQ translation team, Gray Loads.
I like gamemastering in Pavis or around there, somehow because I love Morocanth. I really think, that's a very good idea to appear Morocanth in RQ.
On 25th Dec. 1994, the latest Japanese supplement, "Monster Colosseum" was published. Not the same as the English one, its "Monster Book" contains almost all creatures appeared in RQ3. This book is very convenient for gamemasters, I suppose.
Cheers,
