Each year we celebrate Autocratik’s #RPGaDay, where we spend a month celebrating RPGs, discussing what we love and what we love about them. Here are the responses of the TRF crew. Be sure to tweet, blog, or post your own with the #RPGaDay!

For August 16, who is a historical person you’d like in your group? What game?
Aser – As a character, I’ve always wanted to have something with Nicola Tesla in it: think of all the destruction that would ensue… As a player, I’d want Machiavelli, for the same reasons as the preceding.
John D. – I think H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard would be a lot of fun; probably Call of Cthulhu and Conan respectively but it would be neat to see them play Numenera or The Strange.
If they are busy, a Fiasco or Fear Itself with Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Vincent Price.
Landan – Albert Einstein, Nikola Tesla, Leonardo DaVinci, Marie and Pierre Curie. As far as the System I would love to listen to them play something in Numenera setting.
Megan – Maybe CS Lewis? Or Madeleine L’Engle? They were the greatest influence on my love of fantasy as a child. I’d like to play Numenera or the Strange with L’Engle and probably Numenera with Lewis as well.
Mike G. – Mark Twain. Literally anything he’ll GM.
Patrick – Robin Williams, Vampire the Masquerade. I’d love to see him play some elder vampire or other spook.
Phil – Groucho Marx, Paranoia.
