About Us
Hello fellow role playing enthusiast. I have been playing Dungeon's and Dragon's since 1976 and have played each version extensively. Since I first read Andre Norton's "Quag Keep", I have been scouting ahead in dungeon crawls, hurling fireballs, casting illusions, saving damsel's in distress, praying to the gods for aide and seeking a truly lawful and ordered society. As a dungeon master I am true to Gary Gygax's original teachings and have DM'd in Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Dark Sun and a few other settings of my own creation. I am a recovering addict of Dark Ages of Camelot and have played Witcher, Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter's Night, Torment, Icewind Dale, Morrowind and Oblivion. I have dabbled in Magic the Gathering, Warhammer, Bloodbowl, Munchkin, Paranoia and am an avid board gamer as well.
I will do my best to keep you satisfied so
you will enjoy purchasing items from me now and in the future.
