Meet the Dungeon Masters
Emily Singer
Emily is a teacher and storyteller from upstate New York who is an expert in writing and education. Emily started playing D&D as a teacher with kids in her elementary school classes at lunch time and after school as a way of teaching social skills and conflict resolution, but has expanded to be a Game Master for all ages and multiple systems. Emily DMs D&D 5e, 5.5e, and Daggerheart, focusing her games on what the players enjoy. Sometimes there is more combat and crunchy math, and other times there is more roleplay and exploration, but her primary focus is always the enjoyment of the game. If you have beginners in your group or are trying to get your friends hooked, reach out and schedule a game!
Charlotte Varreaux
Charlotte is a lifelong fantasy lover, tabletop RPG enthusiast, and worldbuilder who has been running games for over 12 years. She primarily runs D&D 5e and 5.5e, with experience in 3.5e as well, and is known for creating original settings filled with mystery, memorable characters, and player-driven stories. Her games often explore themes of dark academia, gothic horror, political intrigue, and the strange things hidden beneath the surface of otherwise ordinary worlds, though she is just as comfortable running silly Fae themed adventures. As a Game Master, she strives to create welcoming tables where new players can learn comfortably while experienced players still find plenty of challenges and meaningful choices. Charlotte's favorite part of running games is watching players feel like they are truly part of the world around them and helping them shape the story into something uniquely their own. She rarely runs the same story twice and always has something new to tell.
Jojo Johnson
JoJo is a Boston-based dungeon master and drag royal operating under the moniker Manthief (a gentleman thief so clumsy they dropped the “gentle” part). They run games that are equal parts comedy, horror, and tabletop tactics, prioritizing an immersive tone and intricate game mechanics. If you are looking for complex combats, tabletop escape rooms, or high energy theatrics, JoJo is the DM for you! JoJo offers the following systems: D&D (3.5e, 4e, 5e, 5.5e), Lancer, MÖRK BORG, and Vampire the Masquerade V5. Visit their website manthief.com to view their portfolio of custom one-shots to play or get inspired!
Autumn Moss
Autumn Moss has been a DM since their first year of college, and has been running TTRPG games ever since. Their games run the gamut of styles, from fantasy adventure romps to spooky urban monster hunts to bunnies in the apocalypse. They love to run games that are a mix of serious and funny, with the goal of letting the players tell the best version of the story they can. They run a variety of systems, including D&D, Monster of the Week, Call of Cthulhu, Bunny Borg, and more! Their games can be enjoyed by grizzled RPG veterans and first-time players, and anyone in between.
