We love the empowering force of story.
Through a well-told story, the world can change. Our goal is just to make those stories, well, more awesome.

Tanner Weyland
Tanner Weyland is always interested in having a good time with people he cares about as well as experiencing great stories, which is why he was so attracted to D&D and most types of nerd-age. His philosophy on being a DM and being a player is fairly similar: Be considerate and excited for the others in your game, and always do what sounds the most interesting and impactful. In his personal life, Tanner enjoys reading, playing video games, and walking around his mosquito-infested neighborhood with his wife and dog.
