Welcome – We’re an active gaming group in Merced, California. With campaigns ranging from 0th to 9th level. Our group mainly uses the d20 system for our tabletop gaming  role-playing games [RPG’s].

The discovery of ‘Eclipse: The Codex Persona’ has transformed our gaming experience and taken it to the next level. The ability to make any character that fits your idea has allowed our players to take their character to beyond simple fighters and wizard, instead, with a combination of disadvantages, they weave intricate player backgrounds and concepts. That’s correct, instead of using typical D&D classes, we use a Point-Buy Classless System. Paul Melroy, the creator of Eclipse, has been an awesome resource and always willing to explain anything in his books. I’ve found him to be knowledgeable in his material, like a Rocket Scientist understands Rocket Fuel down to the molecules. In other words, he’s the best customer support person you’ll find.

We have Three Groups active as of September 4th, 2012 –
