About me
I love D&D and introducing people to the game. Hosting sessions has been a constant part of my life since entering quarantine years ago now, and as I find myself with more time, I want to help more people have fun from the comfort of their homes. I'm a huge Critical Role nerd - seen all three seasons, one-shots, read all the books and comics, and have the campaign guides. It goes without saying that Exandria is my specialty, and so all of my games are set there!

How Lizzy | Sapphire Dragon creates a safe table
This game will contain violence and scary situations. I have a multitude of safety tools in play at my table, which will be explained at length in the session 0. Part of this includes learning what we as a group do and don't want to play with. No scary story elements are set in stone until I hear from all the players.
