About Lumbear

Professional Dungeon Master | 6+ Years Experience | 8 Active Campaigns Weekly Hey there! I’m Matt (Lumbear), welcome to my roll20 page! At this point in my early 30s I have collected a variety of subclasses; Canadian, Husband, Father of 2, and Dungeon master for 30+ For the past six years, I’ve been running professional D&D games on Roll20, currently managing eight weekly campaigns set in my dark fantasy homebrew world: Iron and Shackles. If you’re looking for a game that values story, immersion, and consistency, you’ve come to the right place. What You Can Expect from My Games A Deep, Original Setting: Iron and Shackles offers a brutal and grounded reimagining of D&D’s classic tropes; a world where humanity’s rise to power has left scars on the land and its people. Every session builds on that legacy, exploring both heroism and consequence. A Reliable, Invested DM: Each game is fully prepped, on schedule, and focused on making sure every player gets their moment to shine. I treat my sessions like events; not just game nights. Professional Production Quality: Every encounter features custom maps, dynamic lighting, animated assets, and immersive soundscapes. You’ll feel like you’re stepping into a living world. Streamlined Play: My games run dozens of API scripts that keep combat fast, intuitive, and fun; less bookkeeping, more adventuring. Heroic, Flexible Homebrew: Custom rules empower you to fight and act like true heroes, offering tactical depth and narrative flair without slowing down play. A Welcoming Community: Join a network of players who share your passion for story-driven, cooperative roleplay. We grow, laugh, and suffer together; all in the name of adventure. If this sounds like the kind of game you’ve been searching for, add me on Discord: lumbear or send me a PM here on Roll20. Looking forward to rolling some dice with you in Iron and Shackles!

How Lumbear runs games

With Lumbear at the helm of your D&D adventure, you can expect an expansive world customized to the finest detail to explore; filled with engaging questlines with emotional and difficult choices that will bring the values of your character to light. The world is populated with complex problems and lively NPCs that are written and voiced to the best of my ability. As an artist, I strive to bring a creative and ascetic touch to my world through assets and artwork to help immerse the players in the story. Some interesting additions to the rules and difficult combat set in a dark world really allow the players to feel the power a hero should have; this is complemented by a DM with a good grasp of the rules and the wisdom to know when the few times they should be altered for the sake of the story. Outside the session time, you can expect a DM who is invested in your character and you as a person; trying his best to welcome you into the little D&D community that has formed around the games being run. Ultimately the most important thing you will find is a DM that values you having an incredibly D&D experience with a group of amazing people!
