My friend had come into school that morning with a big grin on his face and he claimed that he had played this really cool game the night before with his Dad and older brother. "What was the game" I remember asking and he replied "Dungeons and Dragons" I was a little skeptical at first and to be honest did not really think the game would be much fun at all. After the first introduction during that lunch break to the old Basic Edition Red Box set of Dungeons and Dragons my interest was peaked but I still did not see myself as a commited player and pursued other interests instead. I played in a couple of my friends adventures, though nothing on a regular basis and that was it really. Untill about 4 years later when 1st Editon Advanced Dungeons and Dragons came out and I when I played my first game of that then I was hooked and wanted to play as often as I could for as long as I could. I remember my first character was a Magic user who was persuaded to be Chaotic Evil by someone else in the party and this was a new group that I was being introduced to....Hmmm !!! Go figure !!! So as you can imagine I had a lot of laughs fireballing melee combatants, killing indescriminately and not caring if I decided to put up a Wall of Force in the middle of the High Street in our Local Town with out telling anyone and then laughing hysterically at everyone bumping into it. Very Juvenile indeed !!! But great fun. There was not much roleplaying back then but we still had a great time. My first foray into the challenging world of DM'ing was also equally enjoyable and as most fledgling DM's will admit if honest, I had great fun killing off the PC's in various nasty and unusual ways. So about 18 years later I am still playing the classic roleplaying game Dungeons and Dragons and while it may be a lot more complicated and things have become much more important, it still is a great hobby and one that has brought a great deal of joy into peoples lives. Now time to get off my "Hallmark" Soap Box and get busy creating some nasty and highly dubious critters to slay....doh !! I mean challenge my PC's...hehehehehe !!! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /></blockquote>
