I was 12 years old, walking down the street passing by a friend's house. He and another friend were in the garage playing DnD with the Keep on the Borderlands. I've been an addict ever since.

I have a dream that one day, all game worlds will exist as one.

So you could say it was a chance happening that you came across the game?

I guess you can say I will have a memorable re-origins story to tell soon. Purchased Pathfinder BB and will be DM for my sister and brother, so more will come once we get into my homebrewed realms.

I was 13 or 14. My mother had just married the mailman, his name is Gary. She decided to leave florida where I had lived all my life and move us to michigan. I hated life, and I hated gary. Eventually we got to know each other, and one day he was cleaning out a closet and pulled out his D&D books. I was like, wtf is D&D...So he ran a little game for me off the hip. I was an avariel elf who got his wings cut off and was in an orc dungeon. I was also a druid. I managed to escape, kill some orcs and got myself a panther to roll with. We drew it all out on loose leaf paper and green crayon...I was hooked

It was while watching the BIG BOYS playing D&D that i got my first experience with the game. We little boys would sit in the basement listening and watching them making funny voices and rolling strange-shaped dice. Until one of our friend's big brother decided to introduced us with the Red Box. There is always a big brother.....: )

This was in the 80's, and i am lucky enought to play with the same old friends, and the big brother who got us into D&D, a chance not all D&D players have i know.
