DM Dan

Platinum-best-selling DMsGuild author, Foundry VTT Expert and Master Story Teller.

Ever since I rediscovered D&D in my adult life, I have thrown myself into it completely. Over the past several years I have DM’d many of the official 5E campaigns, 3rd party campaigns like Odyssey of the Dragonlords, adaptations of classics from older editions like Red Hand of Doom and Against the Cult of the Reptile God, as well as entirely homebrewed content

In addition to being a DM for life, I am a Platinum-best-selling author on the DMsGuild. I primarily write adventure expansions to the hottest Wizards of the Coast 5E campaigns including The Wild Beyond the Witchlight, Rime of the Frostmaiden, Curse of Strahd, Out of the Abyss, Tomb of Annihilation, and more. My goal is to fill in the story gaps, add interesting encounters, weave in foreshadowing, and amplify all of the story-telling elements that make for a truly epic adventure.

In the real world, I am a High School Chemistry teacher. I bring all of the careful planning, patience, and time management skills from teaching into my D&D sessions. We’ve only got a limited amount of time together and we all want to get the most out of it! You can count on me to keep the game moving at a fun pace and get everyone in on a moment to shine.

Last year, I started running my games on Foundry VTT and have never looked back. With Foundry, I bring a host of immersive features to the VTT D&D experience including the best-in-class dynamic lighting that is not only smooth but also accurately portrays the little things like greyscale darkvision. I self-host all of my games servers so that lag never slows our rolls.

Can’t wait to meet you! Let’s roll some dice.
