[QUOTE="Tiberius, post: 5249826, member: 1376"] Can I choose the sort of monster I want to be when I grow up? I loved Choose Your Own Adventure books when I was a kid. Also, wizards and the D&D cartoon. I stumbled upon the D&D Adventure Gamebook "The Sceptre of Power" in a bookstore and asked my parents for it. I loved it, and went on to play through most of the line. I also enjoyed the short-lived one-on-one gamebooks TSR released. Anyway, I learned from my neighbor that her brother played, and he wound up running a module for us: the Ghost Tower of Inverness. As it happened, I had just recently read through the gamebook based on that module, so I had a great time. From there, I went to the Basic set. He wound up giving me his stuff when he quit the game. I recall having one of the gamebooks with me in the elementary school gym during an assembly in 2nd grade or so and basing a story off of Tiamat and some stuff from the 1e Manual of the Planes and Unearthed Arcana in 4th grade, so I got a pretty early start.
