[QUOTE="Janx, post: 5458099, member: 8835"] i'd seen the cartoon when I was a kid. read the FR novels all through high school. Junior year, my buddy and I saved up some dough and mail-ordered the 2E PH, 2e DMG and some dice. They sent me the 1E PH by mistake. So when the stuff came in, a few days later, my friend came over after school and we made my 1st PC, Ask, a F/T. We started the game just outside of Arabel of FR. I did some stuff, almost died, cheated by citing a save vs. death rule that I thought I saw in the DMG, and got some money. The second game, we played in an empty building my friend had, in January. it was cold. We made up PCs for 2 more friends. The third game was at another friend's house, and by then, we had 8 players. My buddy is still the GM for the group back home, 20 years later. The group has shrunk, but its the same friends from school. In away, D&D has kept friends together that I've known for 30 years. I did ultimately get the right 2e PH. I've still got those books, and the dice (though I had to replace the d20, after the Incident). [/QUOTE]
