About Abby

I've been playing tabletop RPGs for over 10 years and running games for the past five. I specialize in DND and other fantasy games, but I've recently started to fall in love with Cyberpunk: Red. For me, DMing is about working together to tell stories, tales of tragedy, triumph, and terror. I love crafting worlds where choices matter, where you can feel the tension of silence or the rush of victory after a hard-fought battle. Whether my players are unraveling a murder mystery or making a last stand against overwhelming odds, I live for those moments when they’re fully invested and completely immersed in the story we’re telling together.

I became a GM because

I REALLY wanted to play dungeons and dragons, but none of my friends were willing to DM. So, I begrudgingly took up the task. But.... after I while I realized that I LOVED running games. By now... I think I prefer DMing to sitting as a player.

How Abby runs games

Why Play With Me? Different players crave different things. Some seek the dread of Gothic Horror, while others love Traditional Fantasy. Some are drawn to the crunchiness of tactical combat, while others want to roleplay and bring their characters to life. No matter what you're looking for, I can provide you the experiences you want. My table is a safe and inclusive space for players of all backgrounds, genders, and identities. Let's leave the troubles of the world behind and relax for a bit. What to Expect at My Table: - Immersive Storytelling: A world that reacts to your choices, a world that feels alive. - Combat & Tactics: I try to make fights challenging but fair, you will feel as if you've earned your victories - Atmospheric Effects: Curated music and visuals will pull you into the scene, but I still maintain the things that make TTRPGs unique. - Tech & Tools: Foundry VTT, D&D Beyond, and Discord. - A Welcoming Table for All: Whether you're a veteran or brand new to TTRPGs, you're welcome at my table!

Abby's ideal table

• I believe D&D works best when everyone shares the spotlight and helps tell a story together. • Creative solutions are encouraged. I LOVE it when players solve encounters in ways I didn't anticipate • New and experienced players are equally welcome. I'm happy to teach the game and answer questions.

I love it when a player

I love it when a player takes an interest in the world around them. Especially when they ask questions about the setting. "What's the goblin's name?" "Who are the gods here?" "Where will my character go they die?" Questions like this make know that players are engaged.
