After my mom found out what we were playing insta-ban. She was an avid dateline follower along with what seemed like the entire island at the time. We ended up switching to marvel superheroes which was rad, but we mostly created characters and beat the crap out of each other(in game) comic book style. I've only really gotten into dnd over the last few years as my wife's friends brought me into their group. <br /><br />Game on!Nopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02743719179352388875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066179905250164861.post-59167272536075011692011-02-05T03:53:04.270-05:002011-02-05T03:53:04.270-05:00It will be fun, priest!It will be fun, priest!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12096724870715714696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8066179905250164861.post-19755146696303899422011-02-05T03:43:59.022-05:002011-02-05T03:43:59.022-05:00Tonight I will DM KotB for my very first time to a...Tonight I will DM KotB for my very first time to a group of aged D&D novices.
