tell me a story, game!

So with the new kids coming in and showing off their shiny new fandoms, I'm curious.

How'd you get into your canon?

Did you just pick it up one day and found yourself unable to put it down, or did someone (maybe from this game) drag you into it? How long have you been into it? Was there any one thing or character that hooked you on it? This is your chance to wax nostalgic and go on about what made your canon so cool for you. If there's a story behind it, tell us! And if there's not... tell us anyway!

This is the part where I actually have to admit I never saw the original Star Wars trilogy until I was in college.

Speaking of us being weird ... me too. I saw the 20th anniversary rerelease. I'd picked up bits on TV here and there, but never start to finish before then.

I was dragged to the Special Edition screenings (that had just started coming out, my freshman year) by the DM of my college Dungeons and Dragons group when he found out I'd never seen them, and was UTTERLY SCANDALIZED.

This was kind of an impressive feat considering we were a bunch of fifteen-year-olds, freshmen weren't allowed cars, and the nearest theater screening it was 40 minutes away in Springfield . . .
