My friend Chris sent me this, a narrative about The Lord of the Rings played out as a role playing game (aka, something like Dungeons and Dragons). In case you’re a bit confused: GM= “Game Master,” or the person who runs the game; “PCs” are “Player Characters,” which are the ones run by other players of the game; and “NPC” means “Non-Player Characters,” meaning a player actually played by the GM, really to make things go smoothly.

Oh, honey, the fact that you are able to translate NPC and GM makes you quite the geek yourself. :-) — Annette
