About Daniel (D&Dan)

Well met, adventurers! My name is Dan and I'm a professional Game Master and educator. I've been rolling dice since D&D 3rd Edition and I've been GMing regularly for about 6 years now. I started GMing professionally in May 2022. Now I run private games/campaigns, corporate functions, events, birthday parties, and TTRPG nights at hobby stores and boardgame cafes. I'm represented in New Zealand by Questbook. When I'm not rolling dice, I'm painting miniatures and working as a Film School teacher. I'm originally from Brazil but I'm based in Zealand (NZST, UTC+13).

When I'm not running games I'm...

Painting miniatures, watching movies of questionable quality, cooking some hearty meals, and pretending I'm good at Blood Bowl.

How Daniel (D&Dan) runs games

My games tend to be funny and light-hearted. My players can expect challenging battles, NPCs with unique voices, great stories and epic adventures! I'm comfortable with beginners and veterans alike and I tend to be the first GM for a lot of people.

Featured Prompts

I once ran a session...

For a group of four 70+ year old ladies from a Rest Home at a convention, and they were by far the most brutal players I've ever had at my table.

Daniel (D&Dan)'s ideal table

My table is very welcoming and inclusive, I love taking on board players with varied ranges of experience who are looking to enjoy a rich story with depth and comedy. Players at my tables range from RP heavy all the way to crunchy min/maxers and everything in between; including the ones who like to play a walking "deez nuts" joke type of character. I cater to all styles and welcome all types of weird with an open heart.
