About me
Greetings, Adventurer! And welcome to my table! 🧙🏾 My love of fantasy began with Brian Jacques' Redwall series of books, a good 25 or so years ago. Then, I moved on to JRPG video games, such as Final Fantasy, and movies like The Lord of the Rings. Now, thanks to this line of work, I get to tell my own fantasy stories! 🎲 I have been rolling dice and telling stories with my friends and family, and as part of a local gaming club for over a decade now, particularly after playing the 4E era board games and watching a ton of Critical Role to help stay sane during my PhD studies. 🛠️ I enjoy tinkering with game design, world-building, voice impressions and digital tools to create immersive and fun experiences for my players. So jump in and enjoy the ride!

Creating your character
Characters will be created in a campaign on D&D Beyond. We will be playing with the 2024 Rules. To keep things simple, try to keep to the 2024 Player Handbook's character options. Other sources and 2014 characters will be considered on a case-by-case basis, as some may not translate well to the new rules. Please be mindful of table harmony. The party will start at level 4 with starting equipment, a common magic item and +50GP. Check the recruiting notes for any updates in ongoing campaigns. We can create characters during the free session zero or sometime before the campaign starts at session one.
Current party (level 4): Your next character!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
🎮 If you don't already, you will need free accounts for Discord, D&D Beyond and Forge VTT. Nothing needs to be purchased. 🎙️ A good mic and headset are recommended for voice communication on Discord. 🔉 You will receive a link to the Discord Server beforehand, where you can find the rest of the set-up information. 🎲 A browser plugin called Beyond20 can be used to send your D&D Beyond rolls to Foundry. 🧑 Please send me any pictures of your character ahead of time so that tokens can be created. ✍️ A half-page character backstory would be nice, but is not mandatory.
