About the adventure
Step right up to the Witchlight Carnival—where wonder, whimsy, and just a hint of menace await behind every curtain. In The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, players are whisked away to a magical fair unlike any other, where nothing is quite what it seems. Rides twist through illusions, lost memories whisper through the breeze, and the rules of reality bend with laughter and light. But the carnival is only the beginning. Hidden behind the festivities lies the Feywild domain of Prismeer—a fractured realm ruled by eccentric hags, mischievous tricksters, and creatures of storybook strangeness. Whether you choose to solve problems with clever words, curious items, or a well-timed fireball, every choice matters, and consequences ripple like echoes through a fairytale gone sideways. This is a Dungeons & Dragons adventure like no other: rich with roleplay, teeming with unique characters, and driven more by heart than hack-and-slash. Expect a story of lost things, childhood wonder, and surreal enchantment—where your imagination is the true key to success. So grab your ticket, hold your breath, and follow the music. The Witchlight Carnival is open, and the Feywild is calling. Your first session is free. I love working with beginners and players of all levels. Come join me in exploring this fantastical adventure.

About me
But really, hello, I am Daniel. I hide behind my cats and will frequently have them purring into the mic during session. Yes the kitten here is Sir Oliver. I have been playing TTRPG since my brother introduced me to AD&D in the mid-80's. It was hard finding people to play with in my small Wyoming town, so I started to host and DM my own games. I have been a DM for about 30 years in most versions of DnD. At my table, everyone is welcome — from first-time adventurers to seasoned players. The only requirements are respect, curiosity, and a willingness to engage with the story and your fellow players. My focus is always on genuine roleplay and collaborative storytelling, using combat only when it enhances the narrative.
