My games are role-play heavy with an emphasis on fun and laughs but that doesn't mean there wont be plenty of epic battles along the way! The story will hopefully travel along many different themes throughout our play time and I love to evolve my plot based around the characters that my players create. So expect many twists and turns along the way. Most importantly my game is inclusive above all other things. I will not allow harassment in any form at my tables and if you cannot respect other players then you will not be invited back. I like to create a fun and inviting environment for all and I expect my players respect that. If you have any questions, please do not be afraid to reach out and ask!

About me
Howdy folks! I go by ChrispE but you can call me Chris. I have been playing D&D and other tabletop RPGs for over 12 years now and ever since i have been cursed with a horrible fate... The fate of the FOREVER GM! However, I have persevered and turned my curse into a blessing. Using it to craft a large, ever-evolving homebrew world of unique characters for my players to explore; and now I want to share it with YOU! I run two games every weekend which I livestream to Twitch, if you'd like to check out how i run my games you can check them out on https://twitch.tv/chrispe_vdl or on youtube under ChrispE_VDL. I run respectful games for all people and will not tolerate harassment in any form at ANY of my tables, so if you are looking for a fun and safe place to meet fellow TTRPG fanatics then reach out and say "Hi!" I'll be running games in D&D 5th Edition as well as Star Wars 5th Edition in the near future but am open to new games as requested!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
A prepared player is the best player! Only a mic is required and the ability to use foundry. I ask that you come prepared with your character ready and updated in Foundry VTT before each session and obey the rules established at the table before we start.
What Chris "ChrispE" VDL brings to the table
I will prepare many different items and plot points in Foundry before the session. I have many modules to ease character creation and gameplay like D&DBeyond mods and more. I am an artist and I homebrew all of my settings with hand drawn maps. I can prepare simple drawings of your characters and other descriptions as needed but I will also do elaborate commission art of your character if you would like to purchase it!
