About me
Hi, I'm Jimmy, a 31-year-old Aussie. Roleplaying, getting immersed, and really diving deep into the world is important to me. I love giving players the opportunity to make great stories and experience fantastic encounters. When I first started D&D on StartPlaying, I had some fantastic DMs who cared and fostered a great learning environment. I want to spread that same experience both to new players, who I can teach and show the joy of roleplaying, and to experienced players, who I can challenge while letting them fully immerse themselves in a creative world.
