D&D General Who was your first character, and do you still play them?

Earrame (with all the umlauts in the correct places). I asked my first D&D friend, Matt, to ask his D&D friend's older brother...who actually owned the game...to make me a 'character', and what came back was, although I didn't realize it at the time, a weird hybrid of BCMI and AD&D: an "Elf" (class, not race) with 18/33 Strength.

And, no, although I named my sailboat Earrame, I haven't actually played that character since about 1982.

If we're counting video games like in the OP, I suspect my first character ever may have been a fighter named AAAA from Final Fantasy (1, NES).

Either that, or a nameless human fighter from the solo walk through of the Red Box.

I don't play either of those characters any more. I like to think I've gotten a little more creative since then.

i sort of had 3 first characters? if that makes sense?

the first was a paladin i played a little bit in high school. all i really remember about him is that he one shot a goblin after knocking out the monk for trying to piss in the baron's garden. it was my first "experience" with DND.

the second was a dwarf paladin in 4e whose name i don't really remember. he became a dragonborn and then i retired him because he wasn't really fitting in with the party (who were mostly evils/neutrals). it was my first experience with "DND".

the third - the one i actually played for an extended period of time - was a 5e kobold artificer named kole. he was a depressed little guy with a gun. he was fun.

don't play any of them anymore, obviously.
