Welcome adventurers. I am Dimos, a full-time Dungeon Master, and creator of Liebdorf, the world in which our adventures will take place. D&D has been a part of my life for the past 16 years, either as a player or a DM. I love writing fantasy stories and adventures, not to mention worldbuilding and lore. Liebdorf started as an uncharted world in my first games as a Dungeon Master (more than a decade ago) and evolved into a living breathing world with the constant interactions and inputs of players and my continuous writing about it. Liebdorf's adventures consist of a ...

Ukrainian DM who's passion for D&D can only be compared to my love for my players characters. I share every ounce of their joy and grief, amazed by their discoveries and self-reflections, weep and laugh with them. For many years I've been constantly improving on my ability to help you shape your characters stories. I spend thousands of hours preparing each campaign, filling them with vibrant maps and exciting encounters, but they will never be complete without your characters to explore them!

Hi all! I'm TKat. I've been hosting games for longer than I can remember (literally) and, along with my husband (Badger), creating worlds that bring D&D and Pathfinder to life for our players. Our collective years of experience with RPG's give us an edge in the gaming business. I look forward to meeting you and helping you enjoy the world of slaying dragons, adventuring into unknown lands, and adding experience to a character you have developed with your unique imagination.

Over a decade ago, I began my journey as a D&D game master in 3.5e. Today, I live to tell stories and create shared memories. I run games in a variety of systems, including Star Trek Adventures, D&D 5e, Spire, Heart, Tales of Xadia, Mouse Guard, and more! The more games I run, the more I thrive on emergent stories that lift up player expression. I run games that support improvisation and encourage player authorship. I bring players into worlds that they can truly change and make a difference in. Start your adventure with me today and follow me into worlds that come ...

I've been addicted to actual plays for years, captivated by the dynamic story economy—writer-players are deeply invested in THEIR character; driving the narrative in unexpected ways.

I'd love to become your new favorite NPC and narrate your character's grand adventures. I play D&D 5th edition for a variety of player levels and settings, whether you'd like a 100% customizable campaign, a published adventure, or a homebrewed one-shot. I welcome players of all ages and skill levels, whether you're a novice or veteran. I prioritize making every game fun and foster a respectful environment where everyone can feel safe. I'm not a GM who tries to kill players (unless you want me to), rather I let players make their characters heroes whose deeds are sun...

Greetings and salutations! Though new to SPG, I have been playing TTRPGs for over 20 years, starting with AD&D and have been a DM for over 5 years. Character story and Immersion is one of the most important things to me. My main strength as a DM is setting the right atmosphere to make you feel truly heroic by weaving backstory, roleplaying, and combat into those epic, unforgettable moments. I’m skilled at integrating your character’s story into the world and encouraging roleplaying, even during combat: what you say in the middle of an attack matters for your charac...

I'm a friendly, easy going, and fun full time professional Game Master that loves voice acting and story writing. My passion for DnD has led me to be an Adventurer for 12 years and Dungeon Master for 7. I've run Homebrew and Official Campaign modules for years with my favorite part of TTRPGs being the community I get to play with and run campaigns for. I'd love to get you meet you and run a fun, vast, and immersive campaign together!

Ever since I first picked up a twenty-sided die, I’ve wanted to be behind the GM screen, narrating fantastical stories my friends create.

With a background in theater and literature, I strive to weave meticulously crafted narratives that stir minds and hearts. Each story has the freedom to breathe and grow, with the ultimate goal of creating a majestic tale we’ll remember for life. I also create TT...

I’m pretty sure my love of immersive storytelling and Dungeons & Dragons began the moment I picked up my first Choose Your Own Adventure book in third grade. I was one of those “Talented and Gifted” kids of the late ’80s and early ’90s (we’d call it neurodivergent now), and let’s just say... sitting still wasn’t my strength (hello, undiagnosed ADHD). While most teachers didn’t know what to do with me, my third-grade teacher—bless her—sent me to the library instead of the office. After filing books and learning the Dewey Decimal System, I’d sneak off to the reading cor...

Born at a very young age, I was marked from my youth, cursed to be sired by a "Role-player". My destiny was sealed that fateful day. For years, this passion lay dormant, until my foolish brother, having unearthed the tomes hidden in our home, began... to play. He hosted a game on my birthday, allowing me to invite a friend to play the legendary "Sunless Citadel". The day I met Meepo the Kobold, I knew this was my calling. For over 20 years now, I have honed my body and mind to perfect the art of TTRPG. While others studied the blade, I read the monster manual. While so...

AKA AJ Black on the interwebs! I've been a gamer for years, and tabletops were just a natural evolution of that. My first memory of playing was a Star Wars adventure with my brother and uncle, and I've been hooked ever since. It was only a matter of time until I got the itch to host games, and the catalyst for it was my partner, who'd never played tables before but was interested. I gathered a group of friends around us, and I never looked back. 8 games, 4 years, and a lot of lessons later, here we are. I am still growing, and I'll be the first to admit that, but my fo...

A few years ago, my friends and I were talking at one of our Magic the Gathering meets about potentially playing in a DnD Campaign over the summer. Fast forward two years, 20 levels, hundreds of battles, one epic quest and many many emotions later, I found myself and my fellow adventurers forever changed by our Journey. When I sat down at that table for the first time, I had no idea what I was in store for. But stood there, in a city our characters had saved time and again, in a world we knew only existed because of our heroics, I understood the power of DnD. Hi! My ...
