About me
Hi! My name is Geo I’m a 43 year old DM, starting out with the first mega RPG wave of the 80s with the Red Box Basic D&D set. It quickly escalated and everyone in our grammar school played, trying more and more game systems. Since the early 90s, I've been helping friends and newly met people alike weave fantastic tales across worlds of wonder as they encounter uncanny creatures and recover forgotten artifacts. I am passionate at working with new players, and helping introduce them to the hobby that has been so exciting and such a creative outlet to me. I love to increase player's knowledge through patient exemplary in game playing. And there are no questions too mundane or too silly. I worked for a short time with Jimmy Diggs a writer for Star Trek Deep Space Nine and Voyager on a Steampunk Story and Film project. I have played a couple sessions with Shane Hensley designer of Savage Worlds. I have written several short stories and one Novella with more in progress, and designed 1 RPG World setting and 3 board games...And designing RPG products as we speak. A paid DM who works their butt off to provide a professional experience with memorable moments, far beyond your average RPG experience. For several years I have been focusing on running games for single players, duet 1 to 1 campaigns and for 2 players. I have become highly attuned to the building and presentation of fully realized game worlds and characters. Using many years of gaming, writing and public speaking experience combined with 1 to 1 and small party gaming tools I can bring any Saga to life! All experience levels are welcome, I already taught newbies all the way up to GM’s on my days in the past. Feedback is important for me so at the end of every table I ask my players if there was anything they wanted, what they felt it lacked and how was the overall narrative. I’m flexible to each group and try to adapt to both their pace and style. Feel free to contact me with questions and ideas. My discord server is https://discord.gg/wBKnrxey feel free to join and discuss gaming. Thanks.

Creating your character
There are pre-made characters available for all players. If a player wishes to make their own character they can contact me before the game session to discuss character creation.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The only things a player needs for this game is a microphone. A webcam is optional. Getting familiar with Discord for audio and Roll 20 for maps is beneficial but not necessary. However the free version of Roll20 to be tried out in a browser is highly recommended for dice rolling, improved maps and the visual showcase. If a player has access to the free D&D 5th edition Basic rules to go over it will help them quickly pick up the game.
What Lucas Labs brings to the table
Bringing the Virtual Tableop adventure and ruleset and character sheets. Also providing pre-made Characters with Portraits. Bringing maps and visual handouts for the players to use as well. A fully realized cast of non-player characters as well as teaching how to role play to layers if desired. Will also be teaching Theater of the mind to use the awesome imagination that everyone has to have a unique entertaining experience better then any provided story/movie can. As well as teaching Role playing in general also teaching the game rules in an easy to understand fun manner. Will also provide a background atmospheric soundtrack for the Adventures. Overall bringing great amounts of fun and entertainment first, evoking a sense of wonder as is possible.
