Hello

#1 Post by edwardsjethro »

I was first introduced to D&D by a slightly older kid at recess. I didn't have a clear idea what was going on, but I remember feeling quite engaged.

I've played less than I would like over the years, but it's still a strong interest.

I've enjoyed some of the threads on here already.

Interesting username!
Welcome aboard!!
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Welcome!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.

It's good to have a teacher for this.

Inferno hasn’t brought me my broadsword, but he has brought me clear understanding. ;)

I had the same feeling, though that was the double D's of Linda W's cleavage ...

Still, welcome to the forum. Enjoy the games on offer.
