About me
Hi folks! I'm Tom! And Dungeons & Dragons is my greatest passion. Perhaps that is similar to yourself, or maybe you are someone who is simply curious and wants to dip their toe into these waters. Regardless, I think weโll get along swimmingly. A veteran on StartPlaying, in terms of Dungeon Mastering accomplishments, I have: ๐ฒ had a published interview by the official D&D magazine โDragon+โ ๐ฒ almost a decade of experience in DMing ๐ฒ interpreted for the popular D&D comedy show โAdventurers Wantedโ at the Edinburgh Fringe ๐ฒ made the odd player cry at my table (in a good way I swear!) Currently, I am Dungeon Mastering full time. What that means is I dedicate myself, 9-5, to making sure that your game is up to scratch, and every game is fully prepared to deliver an epic session. Feel like I may be your kind of DM? Come join a game, or send me a message, and weโll roll some dice! ๐ง

Creating your character
Character creation will happen at Session 0. Players are allowed to pick from any official published race or class that uses the 2024 ruleset, and can select their stats from either the standard array or but using the point buy system.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Please make sure that your microphone works, and that you have Discord downloaded. If you also want to get ahead of the curve, you can make a (free) account at https://eu.forge-vtt.com, so that you can access the game (this can also be done at Session 0).
What Tom brings to the table
