Hello! Thanks for considering me to be your Game Master (GM)! My name is Ryan and I can take you on an exciting adventure! It started for me back in high school, almost ten years ago. My best friend and were always drafting up board games and were eventually introduced to tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) through a mutual friend who GMed for us. I loved how much more immersed and interactive a roleplaying game was compared to the board games and video games I grew up playing. Needless to say, I was hooked, and it wasn't even Dungeons and Dragons, yet! Fast forward a few years and after I graduated Bible college, I was approached by a group of buddies who searched for a GM for Dungeons and Dragons 5e - and how could I say no? They were the most chaotic bunch of players, we had a ton of fun learning and playing together. They helped me develop a skill set that allows for creative and clever solutions to problems in these games while keeping the story focused and the combat interesting! Through my time as a GM since then, I've helped tables develop a community aspect. Here you don't just show up and leave on time like some 9-5 job, you're here to make memories with some awesome players who love the game as much as you. No matter who you are or what you believe, let's have fun together and see our heroes in exciting action against mighty foes!

Creativity
Sets the Mood
Storytelling
Ryan does an incredible job making you feel included and make you feel comfortable with speaking your ideas. He tells you the mechanics of how to achieve your ideas and enjoys your successes with you. Would definitely recommend to those who aren't familiar with online d&d or anyone who just wants to be in a positive group environment.
Ryan is awesome! Not only do you get transported into the story, but you also get a voice in how you want certain actions to play out. I decided to play a role and race I've never played before, and he helped explain somethings and was awesome in helping me build my character.
I am approaching 100 sessions with Ryan for many reasons. First and foremost he is a talented dungeon master that is invested in the community of players that choose to support him. He uses voice work, audio effects, and digital tabletops to create an immersive experience that is more than worth your money. I truly get the impression that his goal is to facilitate the best possible playing experience for people with any level of experience, as long as they have a desire to be a part of the game. Outside of the skills that make Ryan an exceptional Dungeon Master, the discord that he is managing for his players is a wonderful community full of players with all experience levels. Becoming a player in one of his games comes with the added benefit of joining the discord, just being in there will open up additional opportunities to enjoy fun one shots and take advantage of additional promotional deals. I have been playing with Ryan for almost 2 years and in that time I haven't even considered looking for another campaign or DM to play with, the experience is full and immersive, the community is fantastic, and there is not a better deal for your money on this site.
Participating in one of Ryan's games is quite a special experience. Not only that he is incredibly accommodating with every requirement or expectation one could bring to his table, his conduct is highly professional and exceedingly considerate. From the creation of your character, to the integration of said into the gaming platform, to the first evaluative conversations of the group, finally to the gaming experience itself; Ryan was a delight of a GM and conversationalist. If there is any interest in supporting a wonderful person and a provider of holistically impressive service, then Ryan would be a good choice for your metaphorical investment.
Absolutely wonderful DM! have been with him for over a year and have enjoyed every minute of it. from his silly antics to his precise blend of character back story to overall story arc. his use of roll20 is superb and his voices are diverse. he works hard to immerse the players into the story and is willing to work with you to create the story you and your fellow players wish to tell. a wonderful individual that i highly recommend you join for the next adventure!
Really great storyteller and sets up a scene very well. I have been playing with him for years now, A master of player agency, letting us come up creative solutions to problems, and despite my disdain for puzzles Ryan's puzzles are always interesting. If you like challenging combat and roleplay I cant think of anyone better than Ryan!
