[QUOTE="Von Ether, post: 9412360, member: 15582"] I was a bit surprised you had starting players at level 8. Before my friend, Bryan Dalrymple - FLGS store owner and 20 year secretary for GAMA- passed away, we were running a "Story Time" at the local library. We used the system agnostic D&D "A Young Adventurer's Guide" series to guide them into making a region populated by a costal town, nearby islands and volcanos. Brian's layout and design skills make a great map. We ran a level 1, streamlined 5e, to find who stole the gifts to the dragon turtle during festival. Spoilers, it was goblins. Most of the regulars were girls and they loved getting free dice as long as they were [B]not [/B]pink. Sadly, a lot of families who don't have gaming as part of their family tradition see games as something you grow out of at some point. When Brian was trying to get a beer a wine license for his gaming cafe. He had to explain at a town hall meeting that he wasn't tying to get kids drunk. LOL! I call that garage band syndrome. When it comes to people thinking of someone doing a strange or exotic job, they often assume that person is inherently cool. To find out that person is someone you know and a parent no disappointing. Just how a lot of local bands have a bigger fan base the further they are from home. I can't remember who it was a singer from the 80s got some front row sits for her and her young daughter's to see someone is a rising star right now. Her daughters got increasingly confused when mom was recognized and got invited to sing on stage and give the new star her autograph. Still befuddled, her daughters asked, "Where you actually big or something back in the day?" [/QUOTE]
