He played his first game of D&D in 1987, playing the Advance Dungeons and Dragons 2nd Edition Curse of the Azure Bonds campaign. He purchased his first dice and metal miniatures and played on a 4’ x 4’ Plexiglas table. The GM used grease pencils to draw the terrain. He was hooked. But it wasn’t until 2017 when he found people actually playing D&D online and recording their game play. And has been re-hooked ever since.
