My earliest memories of RPG'ing were from Junior High and High School. I was part of a CMPS Magnet in both, which bused people from over the county to go to the schools in question, and my longer term early friendships were established there. Sadly, none of my gaming attempts at that early an age never quite made it past one or two sessions, and I had more appreciation for borrowing the game books to read than the actual playing. I have recollection of having attempted Teenagers from Outer Space, Mekton, GURPS Supers, and I think at least one anime-based one without recognizing what it was -- it should be noted that in High School I was borrowing my friend's Zelazny's Amber series and Wild Cards' novels, along with the Sci-Fi and Fantasy stuff I or my dad checked out from the Library. My parents did give me the cautionary warning about Dungeons and Dragons and Bad Influences due to us being regular Catholics... but given by then I'd started reading the Xanth novels and Anne McCaffrey's PERN series, it didn't really stick. ^_-;
