I've really enjoyed all of the sessons ive played in Incubus games and I'm in three of his games! I'm still a new player to DnD but they always been patient with me and I think they are an amazing DM! They are really good at storytelling and helping with character building making sure your character feels like a part of the world and the story. They also give people in game options for RP and gives everyone a chance at the table so no one feels left out. If your new or a Veteran I highly recommend Incubus as a DM you won't be disappointed!
Fairly new to the world of DnD but Incubus has been an outstanding DM, his storytelling and weaving the players stories in the world itself is truly worth it. He makes all players feel welcomed and involved in the creation of his stories, and cant emphasize enough on what a great DM Incubus is for new and returning players.

Gameplay details
I strive to create a truly immersive experience that goes beyond just following a script. I believe in striking a perfect balance between rich storytelling and challenging encounters. Your characters will face not only ferocious beasts and cunning foes, but also moral dilemmas that test their wit, courage, and resolve. As your Dungeon Master, I'm passionate about crafting a truly immersive experience. In Whispers of Phandalin, your voice matters. I encourage detailed roleplay, allowing you to fully embody your character and forge unforgettable connections with your fellow players and the world around you. this campaign will be a feast for the senses. Music will become an extension of the narrative, setting the mood for tense encounters, triumphant victories, and heart-wrenching decisions. Imagine the pounding drums as you face a terrifying dragon, the celebratory music that fills the air after a successful heist, or the melancholic strains that underscore a moment of loss. Additionally, detailed maps will guide your exploration, while printable handouts will provide tangible reminders of your discoveries and the lore you uncover. But this goes beyond just experiencing the world – your characters are integral parts of it. I weave your backstories into the main story, ensuring your character feels unique and their history has a lasting impact. Perhaps you're a disgraced noble seeking redemption, a cunning rogue with a hidden past, or a powerful wizard searching for lost knowledge. Your choices and actions will shape the world around you, making your character's journey truly your own. The path ahead won't be easy. Prepare to face a diverse range of obstacles that will test your skills and ingenuity. Strategic combat will demand tactical thinking and coordinated teamwork, while social encounters will require cunning and diplomacy. Delve into the rich lore of Faerun, uncovering forgotten secrets and captivating stories through exploration. New players are welcome! Regardless of your experience level, I provide guidance and support to ensure everyone has the tools they need to craft their legend.
