Greetings, fellow heroes of pen, dice, & paper! I'm a writer, game designer, and RPG enthusiast. Ever since I played D&D in a cabin in the woods when I was a kid, I have been a dedicated fan of TTRPGs. That was over 30 years ago and I have been honing my craft ever since. For me TTRPGs are all about the Story, the Characters in them, and the Choices they make because that is where you find all of those meaningful and truly EPIC moments.
Nowadays, I am a professional GM and I am up and running on StartPlayingGames (SPG). I run adventure modules, adapt other settings to 5E D&D, create my own homebrew content, run workshops for beginners new to the hobby, and can even design a custom setting on demand. My specialty is tailoring an experience to a particular party or player.
My style varies depending on the setting, content, and the players. I do focus on roleplay over rollplay, but there is still plenty of action to be had. My worlds are dynamic and change as a result of the PCs and the choices they make (for good or bad). My emphasis is on engaging and meaningful content that is a blast to play.
I run Tuesdays through Saturdays in the evening, usually 8-11 pm Eastern Time (GMT -4), but you are free to contact me about any potential slots you might be interested in.

Welcome to Tales from the Yawning Portal. Within this book you will find seven of the deadliest dungeons from the history of D&D, updated for the current edition of the game. Some are classics that have hosted an untold number of adventurers, while others are newer creations boldly staking their place in the pantheon of notable D&D adventures.
Just as these dungeons have made an impression on D&D players, so too have tales of their dangers spread across the D&D multiverse. When the night grows long in Waterdeep, City of Splendors, and the fireplace in the taproom of the Yawning Portal dims to a deep crimson, adventurers from across the Sword Coast-and even some visiting from other D&D worlds-spin tales and rumors of lost treasures.
This is a beginning tutorial on how to play 5E D&D, but with an homage to the older tales that will satisfy the veteran player as well. If you have little to no experience playing Dungeons & Dragons, especially 5th Edition, then this is your chance to learn with like-minded players. As a veteran DM and a professional teacher, I will help teach you how the game is played so that you can go onto other campaigns with confidence.
Final Note: This is a Short Adventure and will be a series of Short Adventures out of Yawning Portal that have been strung together.
