There are indeed other girls that play. I've not only gamed with several of my female friends, but have taught my sister and wife to play as well. And yes, in the game our characters do have a romantic interest in each other. Though I have to admit there are definitely more guys than girls that play. Think it comes from the whole nerd aspect...and I can say that because I am one! LOL
Being a nerd isn't always a good thing to admit to, but I'm glad to know about other girl gamers.
Also what got you interested in D&D in the first place? My parents and uncles used to play, but I never did until my friend bought the V3 PHB and brought it to school. How about the rest of you?
I got interested because it was recommended by my friend in an email. He has been playing for 9 years, and I just started last Friday. I was also wondering if there were any other girls that play this game.
