A pair of well-known faces within the Dungeons & Dragons streaming community are facing a number of accusations surrounding their treatment of collaborators on assorted projects. Over the past several days, over a dozen different former collaborators have spoken out against Satine Phoenix and Jamison Stone, a pair of frequently seen influencers who have appeared on numerous Dungeons & Dragons streaming shows and worked with the likes of Wizards of the Coast, Origins Game Fair, and Geek & Sundry. These accusations paint a pattern of poor treatment, bullying, and gaslighting, along with threats of blacklisting and manipulation.
It was never my intention to release this experience because I did not want to make my footprint in this industry this way. But in light of two dangerous people threatening and slandering some of my closest friends . It’s time I share my experience… a thread … pic.twitter.com/DvOhp8yBnh
Chad’s not the only one. Jamison gaslit and bullied us on Sirens: Battle of the Bards for asking to be paid after we were told to invoice by one of the other project leads (Rick Heinz). We eventually were paid…most of us less than we initially invoiced for, but it’s done. https://t.co/pIJOs6nkQr pic.twitter.com/57DqA9Y3XX
I’m not dodging anything. I support @nerdytattooer & the creatives who have come forward. I’ve also not been paid for writing on Sirens, I backed out of Satine’s Quest & had my own personal attacks by him that I tried to put behind me until all this came to my attention yesterday
#TTRPG Experiences I had in co-creating The Red Opera, focusing on how the creatives were mistreated & under-credited:Did y’all know The Red Opera is an adaption? There’s this great band called DiAmorte, fronted by Drake Meffesta. The Red Opera is an album & stage show… 1/
The first I saw of this was when @kmdemat called me earlier today to tell me. We both read through it, and it rings true to us based on our own experiences with Satine Phoenix & Jamison Stone. This is our (long) story. Throughout, K=Katie and T=Me.https://t.co/gQicSAVeJQ
Thank you @nerdytattooer for coming forward. This behavior has to end and has no place in our industry. https://t.co/TeBlIf05fn pic.twitter.com/50buwUUBnL
Finally, huge gratitude to the folks who’ve come to me privately to apologize for staying quiet when it was going down. ⁰Let’s all keep this community as safe, as kind, as helpful & as fun as we can make it. ⁰I’d love to roll some dice with you.⁰Thanks for listening. ⁰/end
To everyone brave enough to share your experiences: I am so incredibly sorry. pic.twitter.com/m3RxYFMd6M
My family and I have been following the stories being told these past few days about the aggressive disrespect Jamison Stone and Satine Phoenix have shown to numerous people, and obviously we find it very disturbing.
