I started playing D&D with the Basic Set in 1979, quickly followed by acquiring an AD&D Player's Handbook, Monster Manual, Dungeon Master's Guide, and module G3: Hall of the Fire Giant King. I played AD&D 2nd Edition, D&D 3, D&D 3.5, Pathfinder, and now 5th Edition. I like to run games more than to play in them. I've run many years-long campaigns with characters achieving sometimes 20th level or higher, mostly set in my own world but also some set in Greyhawk, Athas, and Eberron.
