I’ve been a DM for 28 years, ever since second edition.
When I started, it was just me and my brother. I was the DM (of course) and he was my player.
As I grew older and the new editions came out, I stuck to DMing. I DMed my way through 3 and 3.5 and now I’m about to celebrate my 1 year anniversary with 5th and my current group.
And now I’m DMing for over 150+ people all at once.
Keep reading to learn how I DM for 150+ people at a time.
I wasn’t always a good DM.
It’s been quite the journey and I’ve learned a lot! Of course, I didn’t always know what I was doing.
I’ve been a rail-roader, petty DM, lazy DM, all the types of DMs that make you roll your eyes (although, I never did a DMPC).
Practice practice practice has made me better.
And it paid off!
Now I have a website with 150,000 monthly views and 19,000 followers on Instagram.
Below is just a few bits of content I’ve created this year alone:
Taking 5E content-creation requests.
I’ve been creating my own Fifth Edition compatible content for a year now. After writing roughly 400 articles, I decided to branch out and create a Patreon account. The Patreon has been a huge success, earning 3 new patrons every day.
Originally, the Patreon was all for requests. But as it grew too big it was getting difficult to keep up with them all. So I had to do something else. That’s when I created the Wandrossa campaign setting.

Wandrossa Campaign Setting – built by fans.
Wandrossa’s purpose was to be completely crafted by my Patrons. I was going to build it through polls and suggestions. But even that got out of hand.
So I developed a NEW game: Gods of Wandrossa
Gods of Wandrossa – you play a GOD
Taking the Fifth Edition rules, I turned Patreon into a game of sorts.
Here’s how it works:
- Each patron is a god with powers.
- Every day represents a year in game-time.
- Each year, the patron-god can take actions to affect and change the world.
- The actions that the god takes are permanent and part of the campaign settings canon.
- A gods powers can create new monsters, races, magic items, subclasses, and more that are all Fifth Edition compatible.
- Periodically, campaign setting books will come with all of the new stuff that’s getting made in the game.
Already it’s going incredibly well. Signs up started yesterday and already 1/3 of the Patrons are onboard.
You can see the current line-up of gods here: Gods of Wandrossa Roster

What else do you get as a God of Wandrossa?
In addition to actively participating in the game, you get PDFs of the game, first-time requests, the ability to vote and polls, and at some levels swag and printed books.
In fact, after signing up for the Patreon the first thing you get is a copy of the book EVIL, a 56-page PDF featuring all-new, all-original Fifth Edition content.
What’s it cost to join Gods of Wandrossa?
The value is incredible.
Here are the things you get and what they would normally cost you.
- Monthly PDFs worth $10-$20 each
- The Gods of Wandrossa game (valued at $5/month as a MMORPG)
- Direct influence on the world itself (Kickstarter rewards usually ask for $100 or more for only one-time offers like that)
- Swag and printed books (certain restrictions apply)
So something like this would probably normally cost you anywhere from $200 – $300.
But I’m not even asking for 1/5 of that.
You can become a God of Wandrossa for only $3.
