My new friends played AD&D and invited me to join in. We played in the school library.The DM was Ian Grojnowski. He insisted that everyone play chaotic evil characters because all the other alignments were too restrictive. But he gave all PCs straight 18s in their characteristics.Michael Barr-David was playing a third-level fighter who had acquired teh entire inventory of a magic shoppe, and who tried to lord it over the other players. We fought. He died, but claimed that his magic carpet ought to have enabled him to attack us with his vorpal sword without coming within range of Bill Plant's and my Magic Missile spells. Ian ruled against him, and he went off in a huff taking the only Monster Manual we had.Paul Tritter was, if I remember correctly, playing a first-level cleric.Bill Plant was playing a first-level magic user. I also played a first-level magic user. That way the party had access to *two* spells per day. But neither of us rolled Sleep among his spells known.We found a Deck of Many Things. We encountered a dragon. Ian and I both rolled maximum damage on our d4s. The dragon died, and we got the treasure, but Ian told us it was only an illusion (and so Bill's and my characters were useless until the next day).We found a Sphere of Annihilation.The campaign collapses into a shambles.Amazingly enough, I played again.Regards,Agback</blockquote>
