My Roleplaying History

I had my first experience with roleplaying games back in the winter of '85 (I was 13 at the time). One of my friends got the Dungeons & Dragons Basic Set (Red Box) for Christmas and we were pretty hooked at once. I had only started learning English in school 1½ year before and weren't really good at it, but my friend (who was a year older) had flair for it and could do most of the reading. Naturally he took on the job of dungeon master, while I and a couple of his friends created some characters. I must admit, that I can't remember what my first character was or what he was called, but it was most likely a fighter.

Welcome to Taemmaril

Welcome to my blog about the world of Taemmaril and my experiences with roleplaying. The blog has a couple of purposes - first of all, it is a way for me, as a DM, to share information about my campaign with my players, but it is also intended to be a blog about my return to roleplaying games, that others might find interesting. I will probably write a bit about my RPG history at a later point, but for now the short version is, that I have decided to get back into the game after a long break and the main reason for my return to the hobby, is the release of the new edition of Dungeons and Dragons (5E, 5th, whatever it is called).
