Having an off day, let’s try out this meme from birdsite! One like equals one answer (unless I feel really ambitious).
2. My first experience playing D&D was trying to keep a friend company while he recuperated from a ruptured appendix. I played a wizard! And remember nearly nothing of that game.
Years later my friend Ryan got me into playing. The fad of the early 80s had come and gone, so he inherited a second set of books from his cousin and sold them to me cheap, which is the only way I could have afforded them.
@Leucrotta my first d&d experience was... less good but amusingly creepy -- it was basically a one-player game with Young Travis Bickle as GM. details sometime after i get home
@zebratron2084 I played a wizard! I carried off a captive Amazon warrior, swinging to escape across a chasm, because other PCs were doing it and I’d seen Vikings carry off captives in books- no clue what you’d DO with a captive, I think I figured you’d play chess with them. Also no clue that maybe a wizard can’t carry an armored warrior. I kinda cringe now, telling that story, it’s gross when I think about it.
