Dragon Born

It would seem that I am going to be pulled into the modern era of Dungeons & Dragons. Kicking and screaming. (Well, there’ll be kicking and screaming. I’m pretty sure there will. It may not be mine.)

D&D came out with their Fourth edition recently. I kept resisting the urge to do anything with it. I’d been burned by the whole 3.0-3.5 experience, and I really wasn’t into caring about D&D anymore.
