[Paid $40][Online][D&D 5e] Multiple Campaigns Recruiting — Leopold the Just, Professional DM

About me

I am Leland, online as Leopold the Just. I have run tabletop games for over 20 years, since I was 15, and I run paid campaigns full time on StartPlaying. My tables focus on strange mysteries, creepy places, emotional roleplay, and stories built around the characters. The world reacts to what you do.
