Meet the Players and their Characters
Dustin Ritchea is the Roll Seekers' humble DM and player of Ernan Baldemar, a Human Fighter.
"Your best friend and your greatest enemy.”
Dustin has always been a storyteller, and The Legend of Nabell started in fifth grade with a song. It wasn’t until college, however, that Dustin started playing Dungeons and Dragons and Pathfinder, weaving stories for his friends and family.
Allison Ritchea plays Vyr, an Umtheran Ethomancer.
When Allison first met Dustin, he was already a seasoned D&D player and DM, and Allison never thought it would be something she would be interested in. As she watched multiple games, she decided to give it a try and fell in love with the game. This was a great way for Allison to get out of her comfort zone. She loves that D&D can be played by anyone and it can help build confidence.
Jami Spiegel plays Helena Meira, a Vanari (High Elf) Ranger.
Jami started her tabletop adventures with Pathfinder over fifteen years ago with her brother, Dustin. Roleplaying sorcerers and animal-loving characters has become one of her favorite pastimes. When she's not rolling dice, you can find her at home with her husband, twin boys, and seven dogs.
Trevor Spiegel plays Bjorn Gundersen, a Human FIghter.
Trevor is a man of mystery. Details are sparse about this voice-throwing seductioneer. He loves innuendos almost as much as he loves his family. A devoted father and humble Seeker, this closeted gamer has only just hit his stride as a nerd, but oh, the distance he will go.
Kevin Wesley plays Torin Avorinth, a Veyan Twilight Cleric.
Kevin Wesley is a healer both in-game and out. An avid gamer and a lover of fantasy, board games, and adventures, you will often find Kevin exploring imaginary worlds or hiking mountains in the real one.
Kevin is a spur-of-the-moment kind of guy. He's been known to travel internationally with a moment's notice, and he is a friend of a friend—always willing to lend a hand.
Eli Carden plays, Yurius Castus, a Shadow Elf Paladin.
Eli became a Roll Seeker when he was in eighth grade, and he is the youngest member. When he’s not at Culinary school or playing D&D, he enjoys playing video games of all kinds. Eli spent four years watching his family play D&D games before he was finally asked to join. His cousin, Dustin, challenged him with reading “The Hobbit” before he could join a game.
Martin Buinicki plays Whisper, a Human Rogue.
Martin is the lead writer for Gaming Honors, an RPG company based in northwest Indiana. In addition to writing and playing games, he teaches courses focused on games and literature at Valparaiso University, where he is an English professor. He also appears regularly on Honor Among Thieves, an RPG-themed talk show on the Goodman Games Twitch channel.
