D&D Next

D&D Next

Growing up I never played D&D, but I did look over the Red Box plenty of times. The way the game was marketed was just confusing, with advanced, normal and so on. A few years ago I had some gift money from my sister inlaw so I picked up Dungeons & Dragons Essentials, Heroes of the Fallen Lands. When I bought the book I was hoping for an inspiring story that would push me into a world I had never explored, cold pea soup was more exciting.

A few years later I learned about D&D next was having an open play test, which sounded interesting. I signed up for the play test and the first packet was ok. With the second packet  I made my first character a fighter named Ravenscream. My very first character took some time to figure out what was going on and for some reason determining my hit points was a frustrating experience. A while later I made my second character Stonewell, a Cleric. I was worried that character generation would be very involved, but once I understood how it worked it was fast and enjoyable.

In the next few weeks I'm hoping to get these two characters in a few fights and see how time consuming the combat is.

I want to play him
And storm this
