About David

Everyone calls me doc. I started in 1974 with chainmail, and later dnd. I also ran the original traveller rpg. I've had seminars with Gary gygax, and Dave arneson. They inspired me to be a dm. In the 80's and 90s I added cyberpunk, marvel superheroes, battletech/Mechwarrior, and a few other games under my belt. Having been on the rpg scene for 50 years, I've made numerous friends that write for game publishers and designers. I write for one myself. At their behest, I'm going to give this a try
