Pre-first & First
Pre-First:
I consider this character pre-first as at the timeI had no clue as to what
we were doing. Some friends at my FLCS (friendly local comics store), which I
frequented as they were the only outlet at the time to distribute L5R cards,
asked me to sit in with this cool game. Turned out to be HKAT and I got
lucky to draft the leading role. Game soon disipated when the DM exclaimed (about 10 minutes into the first session and after me killing an anoying client at my dad's restaurant) the game was dead since I killed the one person who
could tell us what was going on.... (afterwards I found out this was an RPG and that the DM s*cked big time.)
First real Character: not realy shure, it must have been one of these 2:
a) ADnD: Ishkla Waterbirch, wood Elf rogue/wizard, together with his twin-sister lone survivors of their clan (whipe out by Zentharim). After losing his twin (climbing in a tree to evade some warhounds chasing us, and dropping to the ground... some wood elf ;-) ) he ended up looking for aid in a wizards tower. To make a long story ..... Wizards tower door open (now I know that's screems run away) no wizard to be found and a wooden dog standing
in front of a mirror seemed to be in the mirror running about when I pass on
my way out. Young wood Elf ( snottynose of barely 80 years) says "Hey cool mirror" and touches the mirror.... to this day, my friend Ishkla is stuck in that mirror (the party never found out)
b) WFRP: Reinhold Gottesfrieden, judicial champion and commander of the
Templars of the Fiery Heart, chosen of Sigmar. I played the Enemy within campaign, jumping on board just after death on the Reik to replace a player who had left the group. Currently after completing Power behind the throne,
Reinhold has retired into monastic life, studying to become a full cleric of Sigmar.
I started both campaigns at about the same time and can't realy remember which one was first...
BTW: who else is giving each of his characters his own set of dice and keeps
his old charactersheets safely stored in a binder ;-)
