Go to google and type in these keywords:
LARP furvert (your new city)

That should give you plenty to keep yourself busy.

Nice site.  Right there in the middle box is "Creat a Free Profile".  This is a satire site, isn't it?

Ew.  D20?  Are you serious?

The only game out there worth playing anymore is HackMaster (http://www.kenzerco.com/index.php?cPath=25_26).

No--more--dashes-------!

I'm a fan of reading.  Archaeic, I know, but it is a good time.  It's not quite a RPG or anything, but there you are.

You know d20 isn't a game, right?

If you're seriously looking for an RPG, then I would suggest Risus (http://www222.pair.com/sjohn/risus.htm). It models DnD, but the rules concerning stats are far less confusing (thus allowing mortals to play).

D20 isn't a game? Someone better tell those people, 'cause they keep putting out books.

There isn't a game called d20. A d20 is the die that you use to play certain games. Although I suppose if you wanted to sit around playing "who can roll higher" you could call it playing d20. I just assumed that wouldn't be kitten's preferred form of entertainment.

From what I've seen of the D20 system, that's pretty much the gist of it.  ;)

The d20 System is a set of game mechanics for roleplaying games...

A set of game mechanics does not a game make.

My thoughts exactly, my dear.  Hence my earlier suggestion that she check out HackMaster (http://www.kenzerco.com/index.php?cPath=25_26) instead.

I'd suggest KoL, but some people just aren't worthy.

And her hands (paws?) might feel superfluous if she didn't have to roll a die.

In my experience, most kittens love dice.

My cat ate a d20 once. I still have it.

The cat or the d20?

A guy I used to game with had a d20 that had been through the digestive tracts of TWO DIFFERENT dogs.

Nobody ever borrowed his dice.

The d20, of course.

The cat died in a terrible accident...that didn't involve me removing the d20 from it with those little things you stick in ears of corn so you don't get your fingers sticky.

There is a D&D MMORPG, but I hear it sucks.

I play World of Warcraft to kill time.

My account expired and I'm not going to renew it. I find that I vastly prefer getting laid in the evenings over killing internet dragons.

You should start playing Guild Wars with me. What's more fun? Getting laid or Team Speak!

I think I made my point.

And yet I find myself more likely to lay a guy who spends his evening killing internet dragons.
