D&D Sails on the River Styx

Greetings and Salutations! My name is… Corwin the Black Wolf… My quest… is to run great D&D games with great people. My favorite color… is gold with platinum trim! Just call me Corwin (sounds like it is spelled). I also answer to, “Hey you I forgot your name.” I am the son of a Methodist minister and a high school math teacher. My father majored in Old Testament, my mother was the first woman to graduate from Indiana University with a physics degree, and my brother is now a rocket scientist (aerospace engineer). I've been playing D&D since 1977. I was five years old, and my brother was eight. In 1979 my older brother and friends got a module called, “The Tomb of Horrors.” My parents surmised that it would be too scary for me to play. So, my brother and friends, employing their ‘10 year old logic’ and solved that problem by making me the DM. That way; I wouldn’t ‘play’ the module I would ‘run’ it. What I realized quickly was that the PCs are at the mercy and benevolence of the Dungeon Keeper. They found that out quickly as well. I was hooked. Being the dungeon’s keeper clicked and I’ve never looked back. Since I could barely read at the time; I had to learn how to fly by the seat of my pants and as it turned out I was good at it. That was forty six years ago (46!!!). Good lord, I can hardly believe it. I love D&D and I love a good game and I love good people that play the game. I’ve run more games than I can count; and still going strong. I have more stories than there are pages in a paperback, and I’m still in awe of how much fun players have.
