Jeremy Johnston (he/him) - Community Organizer & Founder
Jeremy has been a passionate roleplayer for decades, beginning with a brief foray into Dungeons & Dragons in the early ’90s before spending 20 years exploring Rifts (Palladium) and other TTRPGs. He returned to D&D with Fifth Edition in 2014 and hasn't looked back.
He founded Unite the Factions to share his love of tabletop roleplaying games with the community—first in the Greater Toronto Area, then expanding through online play, volunteering, authoring adventures, and speaking at panels at conventions across Canada and the U.S., including:
Anime North (2018-present)
BreakoutCon (2018-2023)
CNE (2017-2020)
Fan Expo Canada (2017-present)
Fan Meetups Ambassador (2020-present)
Mississauga Comic Expo (2017-present)
Toronto Comicon (2019, 2024-present)
GameholeCon (2018-present)
GaryCon (2019-present)
GenCon Indy (2023-present)
KeeCon (2024)
MagicCon Chicago (2025)
Winter Fantasy (2019, 2020)
The name Unite the Factions is intentional: it's about more than just D&D. Jeremy’s goal is to foster a welcoming and inclusive gaming community that values diversity, fairness, camaraderie, and, above all, fun—whether you're a veteran player or brand new to the hobby.
His passion and dedication have driven major events like the first D&D Adventurers League Open in Canada Lost Temples of Lake Luo (DDAL-OPEN-2017, and all the Opens that followed) in April of 2018, The Caves of Chaos from Keep on the Borderlands at Fan Expo Canada 2019, and the world premiere of Cold Rush (DDALCA-03) in Critical Role’s Wildemount in August 2020 on our Discord Server.
Few people know that Jeremy also loves taking selfies and giving hugs—so don’t hesitate to ask for either (or both!). And if you're looking for him after a Toronto Convention, there's a good chance he's at Storm Crow Manor - some have even suggested he lives in the attic.
