About Dane

Hello! I started playing TTRPGs an eon ago with the D&D Red Box set and was nearly immediately put into the DM role by my siblings and cousins. I would say I am equally comfortable with a homebrewed campaign setting as well as any official worlds. Dragonlance being my favorite with Spelljammer coming in a solid second. Outside of D&D I find Villians and Vigilantes and Paranoia to be just downright fun while World of Darkness is great for sheer world immersiveness. In the end, I love setting the scene and letting the players run wild with their creations.

How Dane runs games

I feel the players move the story while my role is to breathe life into the world around them. I feel both RP and Combat carry the same weight of importance and a successful and fun game will balance each to the desires of the players. Being a visual person I tend to be as descriptive as possible using all tools available including custom VTT tokens and maps that I make myself. I use Fantasy Grounds Unity Ultimate so no player has to purchase the software.
