In this session you will meet Adam, a man whose whole life has prepared him for the GM chair, or perhaps even to be a D&D character in real life. He is an archer, bowyer, flint knapper, furrier and much more. These fascinating historical hobbies are the bedrock on which his uniquely authentic D&D setting, The Age of Bronze, was developed. Oh, and should you want to play D&D at his table, he is a DM for hire!
