About me
Hey there, you can call me: Steve, Ste or Stevie D. You can find me here: https://www.dibiz.com/stevendaord https://www.reddit.com/user/Mundane-Lunch-2708 I have been running TTRPGs for the last 4 years, focused mostly on D&D 5E and Alien RPG. I regularly pass my time by picking up and learning new TTRPG systems. I like to think I bring a unique perspective and understanding to my game table due my career background. I have a passion for creating interesting adventures and world designs. I love nothing more than diving into compelling fantasy or science fiction worlds myself and so I like to create a world that my players love to be in. I come from the video game industry (10 years exp). I've had some awesome adventures and worked on some pretty cool projects. It's been a wild ride! I'm friendly, love laughing and quick on the wit.

How Stevie D creates a safe table
Prior to our journey, we'll conduct a Session 0 where we openly discuss the envisioned trajectory of our game. Topics will range from preferred rules, character dynamics, and detailed setting elements to the desired level of challenge. At the beginning of each session, I will emphasize my receptive stance towards feedback. I encourage players to raise concerns by simply raising a hand if any discomfort arises. A steadfast commitment to maintaining a respectful atmosphere is paramount. Abusive, negative, or judgmental behavior will not be tolerated at our table. Should such behavior emerge in my presence, the individuals responsible will be promptly removed from the game. I am dedicated to fostering a secure and welcoming environment. Scheduled breaks will be thoughtfully integrated, typically occurring around every hour. If the group necessitates more frequent breaks, we will adapt accordingly. Post-session, I will connect with each player for debriefing purposes. We'll explore what aspects were successful and those that could be improved. Moreover, I am keen on addressing any concerns they believe require attention in forthcoming sessions.
