About me
I've been playing D&D since around 1998 with a little 2nd edition, mostly 3.5, and currently 5e.
I used to stream League of Legends on twitch.tv as MrBigShotFancyMan, but with a full house of kids I stopped in 2018.
Now I spend time developing a ttrpg of my own, playing Isometric Hack n' Slash ARPGs such as: Grim Dawn, Torchlight 2, Victor Vran, Wolcen, etc., World of Warcraft: Classic, Utopia-Game, and Good Game Empire.
As for the wiki, I thoroughly enjoy the creativity of the site and seeing other user's ideas come to life. If you aren't sure how to balance your 5e ideas, or you are lost with what next to do, or you've got "stubs" on your page that aren't being explained, ask me and I'll gladly help.
When I am not working on D&D stuff, a fire has been reignited to play an old text based web browser war game, Utopia. I also enjoy a good talk about this game too. A short description, every 3 months the game resets and you pick a race and class to work with other kingdom mates to attack and cast spells!
Article Spotlights
I recently started doing "Article Spotlights" in response to users feeling a bias towards which articles get attention. By being given a random article and reviewing it, I hope that users feel better that the wikians here help everyone and not just a few particular individuals. My goal is at least one article a month, but perhaps I will be able to do more. To check out articles I've done this for, click below:
