ABOUT | Dungeon Master on Demand

Meet the Team

Dungeon Master on Demand was co-founded by Jack O'Brien, Abi Nicholson and Matt Brown as a way to make a living off their passion for the craft of storytelling.

Jack O'Brien

Favourite TTRPG: Pulp Cthulhu

Favourite Dice: D10! (Because d100 isn’t technically an option!)

Favourite Table Moment: Ending an epic 3.5 year campaign. There were many tears, including the noble sacrifice of Greg the beloved Dragon familiar. We will never forget you. Greg!!

What do you love about being a GM: Being able to encourage play in the young and young at heart keeps me coming back year after year. I love hamming it up with my players- coming from a performance background, I'm not a ham- I'm the whole pig!

Abi Nicholson

Favourite TTRPG: D&D 5e , Curse of Strahd

The d12 (cause it doesn’t get enough love)

Favourite table moment: After my players had become extremely attached to a young lizardfolk child, they left the place he lived to continue their adventures. Unbeknownst to them, he had hitched a ride in one of their packs, and their reactions of horror and astonishment when he popped out at the next town were incredible.

What do you love about being a DM: Being able to share stories with people of all ages and walks of life - bringing people together through the magic of words and the human imagination! Some of my most joyous moments are sitting around a table, rolling dice and crying/laughing in equal amounts.

TTRPGs Abi currently runs:

D&D 5e
Land of Eem
