Vin Diesel recently outed himself as a D&D player <\/a>on Conan O’Brien.<\/p>\n

Vin: Very few people know that I was rolling 20-sided dice and talking like a half-orc
\nConan: You would talk in the voice when you played the game?
\nVin: Oh, we completely role-played, yea.
\nConan: *laughs* you’re kidding?!
\nVin: (in the voice of a half-orc) “How dare you!?”
\nConan: That’s amazing! (in a nerdy voice) “Fear not, Gandalf is on the way!”
\naudience: *laughs*
\nConan: That’s what I would be, if I was playing with you. You would not let me play with you, probably. You’d be like “that guy’s too nerdy, he’s gotta go.”
\naudience: *laughs*
\nConan: So you played this for like how long?
\nVin: For like 24 years.<\/p>\n

Hell, that’s longer than I’ve <\/i>been gaming.<\/p>\n
