About me
Hello weary travelers, stay awhile and listen. My name is Jason, and I have been playing TTRPGs in earnest since 2013, starting with Pathfinder 1e, and I have been a Game Master since 2016. I excitedly transitioned to Pathfinder 2e during the playtest, and have not looked back. I have a current group that has been together since 2019, working their way through our second long term campaign. I have hosted close to 500 sessions, accounting for thousands of hours of play. Other notable things about me: 🧑🎓Current student pursuing Post-Bacc Finance degree 💪 Gym addict ♟️ Board game aficionado 🐉 Cosplayer and annual Dragoncon attendee 🖨️ 3d Printing addict 🍻 Beer lover 🐕 Dog dad 🎨 Miniature painter

Jason is excellent at engaging players with the story, their character history, and other players. He's got excellent energy in each session, knowledgeable about systems, and paitent with learning!

Playing with Jason was my first foray into the world of Pathfinder, and I couldn’t have asked for a better GM! His passion for the game is apparent in every session. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the game rules and lore, so he is able to handle whatever situation the group decides to put themselves in seamlessly. I also love that every NPC has their own unique voice (literally!). It truly feels like you’re playing in an inhabited world where the people around you are living their own lives. While he doesn’t pull any punches, and character death is possible, he is very fair and sets level-appropriate encounters that will challenge players. He also worked mine and others PCs’ backstories into the game, making it more personal to us and our characters. I would recommend him as a GM for anyone who wants to have the best experience with Pathfinder!

Excellent GM for both experienced and new players. Knowledgeable, fun to play with and treats all players with respect.

Jason is an exceptional Game Master who goes above and beyond for his players. Despite unexpected storms that forced him to relocate to a coffee shop, he still delivered an engaging and well-organized session zero. Most people would have rescheduled, which would have been entirely reasonable, but Jason's commitment to his craft shines through. His ability to adapt to challenging circumstances without sacrificing the quality of the game is a testament to his professionalism and dedication. Whether you're a veteran player or new to tabletop RPGs, Jason's attention to detail, storytelling, and player engagement makes every session a memorable experience. Highly recommended!

We had a blast playing the beginner box for Pathfinder 2. He did a lot to help us learn the system and what characters can do. He stayed on with us for a long time over the standard time. He loves gaming and it shows.

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Links to Foundry VTT and a discord will be provided prior to session start. All players at a minimum will require voice communications via Discord and internet/computer access for foundry. Webcams are not required though I will utilize mine.
What Jason brings to the table
🎲VTT utilizing the module packs with some custom maps/tokens/assets as required. I have a curated list of modules I've been using to enhance the experience on either side of the table. 🎙️I will be doing character voices (badly at times) there will be ambient music for those interested along with some interesting spell/combat effects. 🆚The combats are numerous and at times rigorous and I generally stick to rules as written though I can fit in rule of cool via the written rules with my experience.

How Jason creates a safe table
We will have a Session 0 to discuss everything but...the table will operate by the Golden Rule: treat others as you wish to be treated which should be with respect and understanding. I have an open door policy where if anyone becomes uncomfortable they merely need to private message me and corrective actions will be taken. Finally, breaks will be scheduled but also taken as requested.
