The first person you introduced to D&D.
Which edition? Their first character.
There was a house party sometime jut
after high school. Which, for a bunch of geeky guys meant playing a
lot of video-games. I was never much of a drinker, so I ended up
behind the wheel with a bunch of drunken yahoos hopped up on too much
Mortal Kombat and vodka with gatorade (never a fan of that one, but I
suppose it helps with the hangovers).
One of these guys was a friend of a
friend kinda guy by the name of JP. He was a a big, cuddly guy so he
sat in the front with me. JP had a bit to much to drink and he kept
passing out, dropping his head into my lap. A decade or so later, he
was the best man at my wedding.

He was geeky, but hadn't played any
tabletop rpgs before so we invited him to our regular 'Geek Nights' (as my
father had dubbed it) and he was a regular from then on. We were mostly into RIFTS and WEG Star Wars back in
those days, so it wasn't until the 3rd Edition dropped
that we started playing D&D again with any regularity.
I think his first D&D character was
a ranger based loosely off Brave Sir Robyn named Gil the Dauntless.
