[QUOTE="Mycanid, post: 3067788, member: 40370"] Yeesh ... well, I can't say I'm an "old pro" per se. (Where in blazes is PirateCat when you need him?! From all accounts he should be the one answering this thing.) "Old" maybe (been playing since 1979) in some people's estimation. My first adventure I DM'd was when I was 11. It was the adventure later titled "In Search of the Unknown". Everything went fine as far as I can remember. The other people playing were also my age and we really didn't know all that much - a little like "ignorance is bliss" sorta. Anyhoo we had a lot of fun. Most of my early DM'ing experience did not really shape me as a DM as far as I can tell. What did was playing the game under more experienced DM's and watching how they did things. I always kinda liked to DM because I enjoy telling a story and having others loving the story at the same time. (See the sig and all that....) I got this from Tolkien's writings. I wanted to DM b/c I wanted to immerse myself and others at the same time in a deep fantasy world that all would enjoy. And ... maybe even learn a thing or two. ;) [/QUOTE]
