About Dean Clark
After writing in the game industry, I thought it would be beneficial to take my talent and upgrade from player to Game Master. Prior to joining StartPlaying, I spent around two years running various campaigns for multiple groups, both module-based and homebrewed, and practiced my skills in this role. Now, I believe I can deliver an entertaining and unique experience.

Featured Prompts
Rules are...
- Majority RAW for D&D 5.5e - Insight Checks are rolled by the GM, using players modifier - Death Saving Throws are revealed discreetly to the GM - Health Potions can be a Bonus Action with the caveat that you roll to see how much health is gained - Health Potions used as an Action give full amount
When it comes to voices
While I am not a voice actor, I do try to give fitting and consistent voices for each different NPC my players interact with. To pull this off, I have a few standard voices for stereotypical use and homebrewed NPC's for consistent visits, such as magic shops.
