About Me

Oh! You've found my personal page.

I'm Daniel, an eclectic hobbyist creator. I'm a fan of tabletop RPGs, television made for tweens, odd or inexpensive musical instruments, and giving positive affirmations. You're worth it. You can email me if you want at this address: d.savage PhD {at} gmail -dot- com     The PhD at the end is ... aspirational.

This site is mainly about a small pen-and-paper RPG that I wrote, called MAGIC WORDS. Click here to find out more about that whether you've been into RPGs for a long time, or are new and interested in how they work. Either way, I'm looking for playtesters. I love tabletop RPGs, but got real tired of Dungeons & Dragons, and wish more players would branch out. I suppose MAGIC WORDS is me trying to manifest that wish; it's about as different from D&D as you can get, while still retaining a lot of what people love about tabletop games. Contact me if you want to talk about tabletop RPGs, or want to know how to get started playing them with your friends.

Here is some music I composed and recorded myself. It's only available here for now even though I wrote it in 2016. It's a 6-track Dungeon Synth EP called Haldric the Sinner.

Play the EP in order!

Beware, traveler! Some DS artists are like, bad folks IRL. Not these ones, far as I can tell.

If synth isn't your style, then below you will find some acoustic music, played on several baroque recorders by yours truly.

Just arrangements here, no original scores.
