About me

Hello, my name is Hannu and I'm the founder of DragonWorks. I started role-playing as a fresh Scandinavian 10-y-old with friends from school. My mom was my first GM, who immediately quit when she realized what she was in for. My friends looked at each other, uncomfortably shuffling in their seats. "Who was going to be GM now?" they asked. I stood up and told them not to worry, because I was going to be the GM. This choice set me on a lifelong path whose full implications have yet to reveal themselves to me. Time has flown since those days. I've recently realized that I'm 35 years-old now, and begrudgingly grown up as I've GMed almost 2000 sessions on Roll20. In person I tend to be serious, driven, flexible, and eager to improvise. You can expect a high level of preparation and fidelity in my games. I use tools and techniques from game mastering books. My players know me and can speak for me. This is the account of DragonWorks, which I run with my friends. This common dream gives us the ability to reach out to you. Which is why I'd like to offer you epic experiences in both in Dungeons & Dragons 5E, Pathfinder 1E, and Pathfinder 2E. We aim to outdo all others in the quality of our sessions, which we host continuously (around 150 sessions per month now). I never expected DragonWorks to blow up like this, and am humbled daily by the talent and excitement of our DMs. We are tried and vouched for, and come with the strongest endorsement that is possible to give: The opinions of our currently 170+ players who choose us every week to play with. I started DragonWorks in December 2021. We're new, come say hi! Best Regards, Hannu

Dragonworks is an amazing world with interesting story and high quality game masters. I've played with Hannu for almost a year and cannot recommend his campaign enough!

I'm X, part of Community Outreach at Dragonworks and a player for over two months. My experience has been nothing but fantastic. The campaign is incredibly well designed, and I've had a great experience! My character's backstory was integrated into the campaign incredibly well, the villains are realistic, and there is a general great vibe! Props to Dragonworks!

The story and the gameplay are amazing. I met some great players and had help from the GM with my character. Great GM for beginners and great storyteller.

Hannu is a very passionate GM as are the other dms in dragon works; who work earnestly in their work. Dragonworks works hard to make sure everyone is having fun at the table but not afaid to put their foot down if needed. I'd been with Hannu for many games and while we had some ups and downs; Dragonworks and Hannu's games were always a positive experience in my hobby of playing DND. I'd seen and been disappointed greatly for people who did great content but turned out to be pretty awful people. Hannu is the complete opposite as a DM for newcomers and old players alike and you will walk away with a positive experience.

My experience with DragonWorks has been phenomenal, the standard of GMing has been above and beyond anything I have ever seen before and the world and game clearly has a lot of love built into it.
