Dungeons and Dragons

Does anyone else play D&D? It gets such a bad reputation... I even stayed away from it because I thought it was too geeky for me. But I started about a year ago and I'm hooked. Everyone should try it, it is the best.

I'm a ranger half-elf, and I'm pretty much amazing.

Online version, I guess? I don't even really know what it's about enough to make a judgement. Care to enlighten me?

Basically it's like one of those choose your own adventure books... except way cooler. The "dungeon master" describes the scene, npcs, etc, and then the players can do literally whatever they want. Obviously there are a ton of rules of the world you need to follow, but besides that it's pretty much free reign.

When I play we use a table with a grid on which the dungeon master (my brother in one campaign, me in another) draws the landscape where we are, and then we have little characters we move around.

It's like a video game in your imagination. Except way cooler than that sounds.

That does sound pretty interesting. Cant you actually buy mats and other things to go with it?

Like a matt with a grid on it? I'm sure you could. I made my own though. You buy little figures though, and tons of books and stuff.

Ya I have a cousin who lives in California now and is a artist for a comic and he used to play that and write out the stories.

Your cousin sounds amazing!

I should try and find someone to play this with sometime.

I shall play it with you if you would like ha. It sounds pretty interesting and I dont see a reason for not giving it a shot.

You definitely should! It can be pretty tricky if you aren't starting out with a seasoned dungeon master, but I can teach one of you how to dm sometime.

Ok that would be rather cool then. I would like to learn this, might bring me back into my old runescape days ha.

I definitely used to play Runescape too! I guess dnd is kinda like that. It's usually set in the same kind of world with similar quests and stuff.

Yes! runescape is pretty cool stuff. And well thats cool no I kinda have something to compare it to.
