My first roleplaying game was purchased when I was six. Andrew, my older brother, wanted to play Dungeons and Dragons. I liked the cartoon, though I confess that I cannot remember which I knew of first. We pooled our money, and we bought the old red box. He alter bought the blue one, but he refused to let me read it.
We played a few games, later getting some of the neighborhood kids into it – I remember it being hot in the camper we had that summer.
Later, I used those same books to run a game in middle school during lunch.
Later, it turned into a job – summer camp councilor/teacher for a Fantasy Adventures class.
In college, I played a long 2nd ed AD&D game that changed my views on gaming. And not only did I expand, I loved new systems and new places to create.
Now, I've run many games, including many systems. And while I'm not a systems-person, focusing more on story and idea, I love gaming.
My current focus is miniatures wargaming, mostly Warhammer 40k, which I will be devoting some time to in this blog. Truly, though, I'm up for anything with the right people.
