Biography

Neal 'Koibu' Erickson is a California native, growing up in Santa Barbara and moving to San Francisco. At the end of 2014 he married Lauren Pass and the two of them moved abroad to live in Vietnam at the start of 2015. They plan to live abroad for a few more years before moving back home.

Neal has been playing D&D since 1999, age 13, and has a gritty, deadly, low-magic style of play that encourages critical thinking and problem solving among his players. This is most evident in Dicing with Death, a 1 on 1 show he runs with his lifelong friend Ryan 'Hobgoblin' Hufschmid. The two have been playing together from the start and embrace a high lethality style of play with characters lasting as short as 1 hour.

Other hobbies and interests include ballroom dancing, Aikido, and Judo which Neal learned at, and subsequently taught for, The Cultural School in Goleta, CA under Sensei Ken Ota.
