Reporter: What do you enjoy doing in your time off the ice?

Basher: I’m a creative individual outside of sports. I enjoy art, writing and creating as much as possible. Dungeons and Dragons is a big interest of mine as well that allows me to combine all creatives. I’m currently running a campaign set in the world of Exandria, which is the same world that Critical Role uses. I’ve made characters of all kinds from barbarians to rogues to sorcerers. My personal favourite is a fire elemental barbarian named Sol Alderbrand. I’m normally a shy, reserved person but when I’m playing D&D, I get more dramatic and extravagant. It gives me an escape from the world to be something else than my real self. It allows me to be a better person if it fits my player character, or a worse person with no repercussions. It creates a community, and those you play with long enough will have unforgettable memories.
