About Me
I first started playing D&D with 4th edition in June 2008 and became familiar with the Forgotten Realms as a result of LFR. I got the Grand History of the Realms and quickly fell in love with the setting. However within a year I quickly became disillusioned with open play, especially with the advent of Paragon Tier. As a result I lost all interest in not only LFR, but all of the Forgotten Realms. After yet another year I also lost interest in DMing for 4th edition and have slowly been losing interest in it ever since.

However with 5th edition on the horizon my love of DMing has become rekindled and so I have decided to revisit this setting which I adored at one point, if only for a brief time. I am falling in love with the setting all over again and am planning campaigns set in the Forgotten Realms once 5th edition launches.
