First of all. Do you have people to play with.

If you don't... there's no point.

I have friends to play with, and I have seen the movie at newgrounds, but I want RULES AND GAMEPLAY DESCRIPTIONS AND EXAMPLES ONLY!

Uhh rules would take a long time. There are books you can buy. If you're a player, you only need a player's hand book. If you plan on being a DM you'll also need a Dungeon master guide and a monster manual. The books are around $30 each and book stores like borders or barnes & nobles usually carry them. You'll also need a set of dice (4 sided, 6 sided, 8 sided, 10 sided, 12 sided and 20 sided.

Listen, I only intend on being a player, so if anyone doesn't have anything better to do, please post the player's handbook rules.

^ Yeah, that'll happen. Either you buy a rulebook or you won't play, nobodies going to waste time writing all the rules up, not to mention all the spells and classes.

If money is an issue though, I suggest pooling your money with your friends' so you can buy atleast two Handbooks and a Dungeon Masters Guide. This will set you for a couple sessions at least.

And probably a Monster Manual, although you only really need the two he mentioned.

O_o, well he might not after all. This site doesn't contain everything, but it does contain a lot of the required information in the three core rulebooks. But it's for the 3.5 edition, so if you were looking to ply AD&D or something you're outta luck. Anyways, here v

People still play D&D? I thought they just bought video games that had nothing to do with what it was.

What are these 'friends' you speak of? They sound scary.

DUH. D&D's often CREDITED for being the first RPG, even though it wasn't electronic.

Plus-You could have your character be a Kuvrahk (A cross between Dragon and Human) now. I can provide you the link.
