About me

Welcome Adventurers! I am Evander Blackwood, and I shall be your guide through the many worlds and realms of your heroic endeavors! I have been a GM since '98 back in my Schoolboy days playing D&D 3.5, Rifts and VTM. With having hosted hundreds of games across many systems I am excited to be involved in the newest evolution of the TTRPG, Online play! I am a Neurodivergent LGBTQ+ Ally and I can adjust my content to be engaging for anyone with specific requirements or who wants to engage in exploring those concepts. I only ask for respect for ALL players. Come with me into the many adventures, either premade games, one shot adventures or with some of my own in depth options that will have you crawling through the deepest caves of the Goblin Kings Mountain, or negotiating defenses with the Militia defending against the Invasion of the Shadowlands. I love to have players RP with each other or with the many people and critters around the worlds we explore, but I also love grinding out your characters in the endless battles of arenas and against dungeon foes. I tend to play nice with your characters at first until usually level 5 but then the gloves come off and you face death when you delve into the midgame content. I am excited to offer my flagship campaign "The Epic of Phandryn" as an epic adventure with several interlocking storylines across 4 kingdoms. With amazing replay value and with late game content having you explore the worlds of the elemental planes as well as solving puzzles from the Gods themselves. Are you intrepid enough to restore the Throne of Iberia and cast the Demon prince back into his own realm? Will you side with the ingenious Western Kingdom of Decimea with their advanced technology, or with the mysterious swordsmen from the Eastern Kingdom of Shijiyoshito who defend the land from hidden enemies? Will you restore the throne to its ancient bloodline, or seek to claim it for yourselves or for your King? The choices you make affect the several endings you can find! I can't wait to share this and many MANY more awesome adventures with you.... Only one thing left to do....Roll For Initiative!

Very patient and supportive for new players and those who have trubles with the roll20 website. He made combat fun for me, even though I usually don't like combat.

A great opportunity to jump into the experience of DnD. Smooth combat, fun interactions, plenty of chances to play out a character, and a fantastic assortment of sidequests to take part in. It's everything you would want from the virtual tabletop.
