Gorebad began playing Dungeons and Dragons in 1979. His first experience behind the DM screen was in 1980 when he received a copy of Dungeons and Dragons for his birthday. Gorebad was involved in running games for Gen Con Europe back in the mid 90s and spent a good deal of time working directly with some of TSR's in-house game masters to hone his craft. He owned a gaming store in Hastings, England, where he was able to simultaneously indulge his hobby and earn a living. While Dungeons and Dragons had always been his primary game of choice, he has run over eighty different gaming systems.
