Hey all, DM Shaugnar here. I am an experienced DM. An Oldboy that has been DM for years. I have run many games for many groups over those years. And one of my personal Favourite campaigns to run is Lost Mines of Phandelver. I have run it several times and revamped it to take advantage of the strengths of the campaign and change up some of the weaknesses of it. More and improved maps. Worked in some plot hooks that will allow it to flawlessly slide into other campaigns in case the group wants to continue after we finished Lost Mines. Also the campaign is perfect for beginners who want to learn D&D. and i just love helping new players dive into the amazing game we all know and love. But it is not always that easy as a new player to find a good beginner friendly group. If you want to try out D&D but don't know how to start or struggle to find a group then this might be just the game for you. A But all are welcome to beginners and veterans all can enjoy this campaign. I also try to personalize it a bit and if possible ad in some of the characters backstories. I want the world we play in to both feel exciting and living. that the actions of our soon to be heroes have a real impact. But i should probably stop ranting and get to the point. I am about to start up 3 new campaigns. Lost mines of Phandelver and beyond.

Here are a few but you can find more on startplaying "Dan does a great job of balancing a session between players who love combat and players who love RP. He's helpful, flexible, and chill, and it's clear that his goal is to help everyone feel like they're part of an awesome story no matter what part of the story they enjoy most. During one session when a player couldn't attend and Dan had to low-key pilot her character in the background, he absolutely nailed the mannerisms and choices for that character -- like he notices how his players want their characters to act and interact with others SO WELL that he can step in and be that character." - Joe "Dan is a very good DM. He understands the rules and understands that the game is written by everyone present. Very fair in rulings and supportive of roleplay." - Jason "This GM is very patient when you have lots of questions. He will adjust his DMing to help you learn the ropes if you're new. He also has a great natural voice for storytelling - it's like having a Viking read you a bedtime story." - M. And please message me if you have any questions.
