About me
Nearly 2 years of Dungeon Mastering. I am still growing my skills and learning along as I go. I find this process rewarding especially when seeing all the efforts pay off and players laughing, smiling or even worried while having a good time.

Creating your character
Books for Character Creation Options: - Player's Handbook D&D 2024 - Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn - Eberron: Forge of the Artificer - Astarion's Book of Hungers Together we will create an epic background for your character. Were you taken into servitude by a Genie? Are you trying to help a Genie gain power or destroy their power? Do you need to gain their favor and be granted a wish?
