[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 5326293, member: 52734"] 1979 and a few months shy of 10 years old, I DMed for about ten years before I played my first PC (beyond a single session). Holmes basic was what I started with. My original group of players consisted of a human wizard (Stormonu, played by a friend), an elvin fighter/wizard (Arr Kann, played by another friend). At the time, we played at school, I'd misplaced/lost the rulebook after only getting to skim it and bringing dice would get you detention (for "gambling"), so we just talked out how everything went down. I played with that group for about 5 years, so it must have went well. (My 1st rules-based game w/ dice was when the Moldvay set came out, about 2-3 years into playing) The only thing I remember about the first adventure was that the two ran across a Gold dragon at a four-way corridor, and Stormonu managed to charm it into helping them. They left it fighting a minotaur guarding the stairs down to the next level while they sneaked by. I still feel sorry for that poor minotaur. [/QUOTE]
