What's the single most important lesson you've learned from playing D&D?
I'm not really sure, I don't like questions like this one personally. I've learned how to be more creative I think. When I run a game I tend to pull things out of nowhere, whether it is random creatures or rooms to whole dungeons being built as the characters are going through it with nothing prepared ahead of time.
I've learned the enjoyment of playing a game with people who have similar interests, and the fact that not all people play the same, so two games doing the same exact thing can be completely different from each other depending on who is playing.

Day 27 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
If you had to do it all over again, would you do anything different when you first started gaming?
I honestly wouldn't change anything. Although starting to play at a younger age would have been interesting, I know that no one around me had any interest or even now they don't have any interest in learning how to play. So even if I did learn about the game when I was younger, I wouldn't have had anyone to play it with.
As far as when I did learn, I don't think I would change anything. My in-laws are interesting people for sure, but they are pretty fun to play games with at least. And they are all pretty easy going so learning how to play with them was both fun and easy.

Day 26 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
Do you still game with the group that introduced you to the hobby?
The people who introduced me to role-playing games were my in-laws, so yes I am still playing with the same group of people. They are fun people to play with at least.
I've tried playing with a few other people here and there, and it is always fun but scheduling conflicts always seem to arise sadly.

Day 25 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
Longest running campaign/gaming group you've been in.
As far as how long we played I can't remember exactly, but the longest running campaign I've played in was my Father-in-Laws game where I played my Psion (shaper). She got to level 24 if I remember right.
The longest game I've run personally is the Evil campaign I'm running currently. Been going for a little while now. We took a big break between playing but have picked it back up now.
Currently the party is at level 19, and are not quite close to the end of the campaign. So it could go on for a bit longer. It will also be my first epic level campaign to run as well, so hopefully that will turn out well.

Day 24 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
First movie that comes to mind that you associate with D&D.
To be honest the only movie that comes to mind is the D&D movie from 2000.
It was an amusingly silly movie.

Day 23 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
First song that comes to mind that you associate with D&D.
To be honest there is no song that I can think of that makes me think of D&D at this time. So yeah, short answer.

Day 22 - D&D 40th Anniversary blog hop challenge!
So yeah got a little busy last few days so playing catch up now sadly. But here goes the last few days.
First D&D-based novel you ever read.
The first D&D book I've ever read was a gift from my Sister-in-Law.

It was an Eberron book called The Binding Stone (The Dragon Below, Book 1). It was interesting to read a story based in the world I like playing in for sure. I've not tried to find the other books for it yet, but maybe in the future I will look into them.
