Adam Koebel is the co-designer of award-winning tabletop RPG DUNGEON WORLD. He was a twitch streamer, Games Master for Roll20, and the GM of the weirdly-popular live roleplaying games Mirrorshades and Swan Song.


Biography

Adam first started playing satan's game back in 1993 with a copy of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons and a stack of Heavy Metal magazines. It's all pretty much downhill from there. He co-designed Dungeon World with Sage LaTorra in 2012 and has been running games online using Roll20 since 2014 - starting with RollPlay: Swan Song in July of that year and expanding to GM RollPlay: Mirrorshades in January of 2015. He also guest-stars on The West Marches as the incorrigible Doctor Grigori. In March of 2015, Adam took up the mantle of GM in Residence at Roll20 and has run several campaigns in that capacity, including Apocalypse World, Burning Wheel and classic D&D.

In early 2020, he quit GMing and streaming.

Set in the weird world of Shadowrun, Mirrorshades is chrome, neon and character drama. What started as a fantasy cyberpunk game about criminals living on the edge slowly became a character-focused story about interpersonal drama. Elves, guns, magic and cybernetics come together to tell some very strange tales.
