I'm a retired industrial machine designer, happily married to a wonderfully patient lady who I met in a text-based RPG on Compuserve (back when 54kb modems were bleeding edge tech). I have three adult stepkids, six grandkids, three cats and a dog.
I started playing D&D in the fall of 1976. My first character never got past the first dungeon room. Less than five minutes later I had my second character and I was off to the races ...
Today I'm DM of one D&D 5E game that's been running since January of 2021, playing in two others and have characters in three games currently on hiatus. Life had progressed and it's difficult to play face-to-face every week. Roll20 has allowed me to get back to a pastime that I really enjoy.
