Owned Cyberpunk 2020 and LOTR:RPG books years before I actually played any real RPGs; I've only been playing pen and paper RPGs since 2006. My first experience was with Vampire The Masquerade and then a bit of 3.5 D&D. I did not become a full-time player and DM until 2012 when a friend started a 4e campaign. I currently play 4e, Savage Worlds, Dungeon World, Fate and 5e.
