Connor DeFord
Additional Writer, Creative Consultant
Connor has been playing D&D since 2016, and DM'ing for 3 of them. A lifelong nerd of all manners, Connor can often be found playing and/or running for one of his numerous D&D groups, playing ultimate frisbee, or playing video games.
Connor has created various types of homebrew content for his different campaigns - everything from player races and subclasses, magic items and spells, and encounters and maps - and found himself pitching us ideas for various themes. It was only a matter of time before Connor officially joined the team, and the rest is now history!
