First RPG? Well, as a certified Old Person, that would be Moldvay Basic back when it was still current, probably in the Summer of 1982, or maybe 1981; I have no idea. I was 7 or 8, and made a Wizard, and we ran through Keep on the Borderlands. You know, as you did in those days. I was hooked. I was so hooked he ran a solo adventure in those dungeons for my wizard the following day. You see, before this, my friends and I played a game out in our backyard which we innocently called "The Indian Game" for reasons that are now unclear. It consisted of putting together weapons made of plastic toys I'm pretty sure were called "fiddlesticks" and throwing them at/hitting each other. This was pretty much in our wheelhouse. The DM - the son of my parent's friends - sold me the Basic set because he was moving on to AD&D. A few years later, he sold me those same AD&D books and we gradually introduced the classes/races/etc. into our D&D game. Again, as you did in those days. (Not many people really played AD&D that I can recall. Most played some variation on Basic, and used the content from AD&D as a supplement of sorts.)

So I just grabbed Pillars of Eternity from g2a.com. What kind of character should I make? I tend to like rogue and fighter sorts.

RPZip posted:Fighter, Rogue, Monk, Barbarian. If it influences your choice, there's a companion of every class but Rogue/Monk/Barbarian and they're all very solid choices for getting on the train to murdertown.

So I have a Silver Ennie. Well, ceramic, but silver painted. I mean, not as an award. I haven't published poo poo. But I was buddies with the guy who used to make them about 10ish years ago, and he gave me a spare when I visited.
