12 – Why did you start RPGing?

I’ve already answered this, but basically: a friend from school told me that I should play in his campaign. And I didn’t understand the type of game at all, but I did understand that it had something to do with fantasy — and I loved fantasy. (Still do, but I used to love fantasy back then too.)

I think the reason I jumped on it, is that I did not have any friends that I really did things together with. Playing RPGs filled that hole. And still it’s something I do with friends that I would otherwise have more superficial connections with.
