Message: <blockquote data-quote="Traveon Wyvernspur" data-source="post: 5665756" data-attributes="member: 73201">A bit of background on my experiences with D&D.The first time I encountered it was when I was in middle school, one of my friends had an older brother that played it and I saw him rolling dice and talking to someone on the phone as they played. It piqued my interest, but I didn't ever go beyond just being interested at that point. I knew at the time I loved the SNES fantasy games and whatnot, but I didn't know until much later how much I'd love actually gaming.My second shot at the game ended with me being shot down before even being able to attempt to game. My brother and I were at a bookstore and I saw the cool books/art on the shelves and talked to him about it and then told my mother I was going to buy the books and this was I think my junior year in high school. She promptly replied that the books were of the occult and that they weren't allowed into her house. Guess she believed what they wrote about the books back in the 80's and whatnot.I didn't get an actual chance to play until my early 20's when my best friend at the time broached the subject. I immediately jumped at the opportunity and we started a solo campaign for me with him DMing. I instantly fell in love with the game and remember fondly the first character I ever played (a Half-elven Ranger) and his heroic death fighting a white dragon.I'm happy to say that I've played off an on for the last decade as both a DM and Player (when I can find groups) and am currently in a new group having just moved to Las Vegas and enjoying being a player in a Pathfinder game. Just gotta say that I love this game, any and all editions, any and all campaign settings, any and all systems!</blockquote>
