Alcina is an actor, voice over artist and singer. She was most recently seen in The Cauldron’s original musical Nun the wiser, and InPlayers’ Time Will Tattle. Upcoming projects include the podcast Scene There Done That and the D&D inspired audio drama Death Game. She loves disappearing into a character and discovering the messy inner workings of other people's brains, finding freedom in this exploration of the other. This freedom in the storytelling is what draws her most to playing these games. Stories are what brings magic to our world, and this is something that inspires her both in D&D and in her acting.

Sandra Schurink
Player (She/her)A performer who feels most at home where the script runs out, Sandra is a core member of The Unplanned Musical, Amsterdam's improvised musical group under the EasyLaughs umbrella, and teaches improv at TVA Impro.
Sandra entered fantasy worlds early, drawn to its fierce, clever women, from the empire-builder Mara of the Acoma in Feist and Wurts' Empire trilogy to the slum-kid-turned-powerhouse Leah of Tony Corden's Stork Tower. It was only a matter of time before she stopped reading those adventures and rolled the dice herself, finding a natural home in Dungeons & Dragons.
