Who are the Dragon Valley Staff?

Who are we?

The main faces that you'll see are Jeff (Kalon), Olly (Firkit) and Russ (Russ). We’re the core staff who help organise everyone, and generally devise and run the events.

Our first site was West Aberthaw Boys Village, near Barry, South Wales, and slowly but surely we built up a group of friendly and fun regular gamers. In the summer of 2002 we found ourselves temporarily homeless until we secured use of our current site at RAF Caerwent.

Our ethos is that gaming should be innovative and fun. To that extent, our gaming days are based around storylines that develop over the course of the day. We also run unique events, such as gaming based in unusual periods of history, role-play events and anything else that grabs our interest.
