And there are only 6 people left now. (And only two that I have no idea who they are.)
Well then, get to know them!
Up top at 13 points, we have Celest Conowitch. She's the Dungeon Master of the highly-successful podcast "Venture Maidens." VM recently funded a
Kickstarter by the same name, and it looks pretty spectacular. (I've got my eye on their "School of Song" wizard, which just might be the "bard" that I've been looking for.) You can check out her work wherever you download your podcasts.
In second place with 10 points, we have Jasmine Bhullar. She's a writer, actor, and internet personality, and the creator of
"Shikar." You might have seen her most recently on Critical Role's channel for the DOOM Eternal one-shot.
In third place with 9 points is Matt Mercer, dungeon master for
Critical Role (you might have heard of it; it's the gold standard of actual-play D&D broadcasts.) He's an incredibly talented voice actor, a creative and flexible actor, and a genuinely nice guy who just wants people to treat each other better.
In fourth place with 8 points is Matt Colville, the dungeon master for "The Chains of Acheron" and producer of the YouTube series "
Running the Game." When he's not Dungeon-Mastering or teaching others the finer points of Dungeon-Mastery, he is writing amazing stuff like the Evolve video game, the Mercenaries video game franchise, and Critical Role's
Vox Machina: Origins comic book series.
And in fifth place with 4 points is Chris Perkins, the last of the "old guard" of Dungeon Masters, getting his start in 1988 with writing for Dungeon Magazine. When he worked for WotC, he led the team that updated the setting and cosmology for the 4th Edition game. Most recently he is the Dungeon Master for "Dice Camera Action."
That's a solid Top Five, folks.
