[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 2217382, member: 945"] My oldest sister (oddly enough) came across the red boxed set at a KayBee toy store in the mall when we were kids. I was probably in 4th/5th grade when she acquired it. She bought it, thought it was interesting I suppose, but ultimately gave it to me since she didn't really know what to do with it. Nor did I, in fact. It sat in my desk for years. I played one game of D&D at a friends birthday party. I was in 5th grade. I didn't know what I was doing, and the GM ultimately resolved most of the actions for us, I think. All I really remember was finding a secret door in my hotel room, and fighting something on a pier near the water. It was a published module, I think, since they had professional maps to go along with it. Several years later, I invited some friends over to attempt to figure out how to play it, and we couldn't quite grasp the concept. Apparently, my game in 5th grade didn't stick with me enough to really educate me on the matter. I didn't play again until I was a sophomore. We started with 1st edition, set in Dragonlance, and then we promptly switched over to FR (and we took our Kinder and Minotaur with us into that world!). I played a drow acrobat named Delmar. I still have his character sheet, complete with dual artifact daggers. :) [/QUOTE]
