For Nicolae Antonescu, his current passion project is designing a home-brew world for Dungeons and Dragons. He has been exposed to the game in earlier years by teammates, and absolutely loves the experience. After experiencing the game as a player, he has begun running his own campaign in a world of his own design, a map that he is constantly tinkering with. To do this, Antonescu looks to all sorts of mediums for inspiration, be it literature, movies, or real life historical examples, then spins it with a high fantasy twist. In odrer to have an immersive world with some semblance of internal consistency, Antonescu has to chart out the important historical events that set up the curreent landscape of the world. Antonescu typically plays the Pathfinder module, but has dabbled in many other editions of Dungeons and Dragons over his time, including 2nd edition, edition 3.5, 4th edition that one time (but never again), and 5th edition.
