About The Author

Sawtooth

Boston-based Dungeon Master and boardgame enthusiast. My 1st D&D ruleset was the Moldvay Basic boxed set. That is, unless you count that AMAZING Troubador Press D&D coloring book from 1979! Fan of the OSR as well as current 5th Ed D&D. The game system matters, but not as much as the people you game with!
