Jim Butler
Forgotten Realms Brand Manager

Jim spent most of his life in the arid lands of Wyoming. He started working as a designer and editor for TSR, but after obtaining his degree in Business, Jim moved over to the business management side of the roleplaying game business.

Jim designed the Sword of the Dales trilogy of adventures, The Vilhon Reach accessory, and co-designed the Netheril: Empire of Magic expansion for the Forgotten Realms campaign setting. He’s also edited various TSR products, including Dungeon Master Option: High-Level Campaigns, Elminster’s Ecologies, Beyond the Prism Pentad, The North, the Spellfire Reference Guide, and others. He’s currently working on many of the electronic products that are licensed through Wizards of the Coast, such as Neverwinter Nights, Pool of Radiance, and a few other secret projects. He’s also rumored to be playing the role of Manshoon in the upcoming Forgotten Realms campaign setting.
