Entry for 15th January, 2009 - 10 Things I Love About Dungeons and Dragons #2

The second thing I love about Dungeons and Dragons is the Dungeons and Dragons bag. For the true player of D and D, it is important to have a special bag within which you store your D and D stuff. Ideally, the bag should have compartments. One for rule books; one for pencils; and one for dice (ideally stored in a special dice pouch. Ideally there should be several unnecessary compartments too just for the hell of it.
It is important to realise that Dungeons and Dragons is a game played almost exclusively by boys. And boys like to “get organised” with their hobbies. Witness the golf bag; the tackle box; and the model railway set.
It is not just the game that is important. It is getting ready for the game.
