What if I wanted to attack the blacksmith, for instance? Or solve a problem in an unconventional way? With a paper-and-pencil RPG, the sky is the limit. I had only played computer role-playing games before, like Diablo, and always felt limited by the small range of choices in the game. I was about twelve years old, and my brother-in-law was an experienced Dungeon Master. It reminded me of the first time I played Dungeons & Dragons.
I felt so excited to open each box and see the cool dice inside, in all their bright and varied colors, and to feel them in my hand and imagine what the future might hold. When I first started, Greg sent me boxes and boxes of dice in the mail, comprising the inventory he had on hand at the time of the sale. That's why I couldn't pass up the opportunity to be part of the industry, and to help people get just the right dice to make their game feel special. I'm a software engineer by trade, specializing in ecommerce, and I love games. I've been running it as a small family business ever since.
My name is Kevin Owens, and I bought Game Master Dice in 2010 from Greg Hancock of Arizona, who started it up himself in 2008.
