World Builder
Scraw is a lively DM and great to interact with. He creates a very in-depth world for players to get lost in, if need be, and provides sufficient room for experimentation and alternate paths, even if the world around us reacts strictly. He occasionally fudges rolls, so that the story can continue, and I think that is wise, as overly strict adherence to the rules can drag the story down or kill off interesting NPCs too early. I think that voice acting is hard as a DM, and with practice, it definitely can become better, but I think that he has the potential to get there. There is obviously for every DM the pressure to balance world lore and detail with expediency, some players like an hour long lecture on world history, and some get bored if you describe a book for a little more than a second, I think that it's a careful balancing act between players and DMs and maintaining a two-way street can allow for smoother and more appealing storytelling. His games also lack unnecessary violence and grimness. You can sense something sinister lurking or waiting to strike you down, but beyond simple dying in combat, or the creeping sensation of enigmatic horror, there isn't anything overly in your face, it's subtle, and I like that subtle creeping sensation. I wish him good luck and hope to provide more information as I play more games with him for longer. :)
Sam is a master of lore and keeps notes on anything and everything that happens in his world. He is able to immerse players into the exact place and time their story takes place, down to the seasons and the weather conditions! What makes things better is that each of his games is part of a larger narrative that can be found on his website. I recommend taking a read of what he's chronicled and jumping into his games to make your mark in his world and its ever-growing story!

How to prepare
You will need discord and a working mic. You can take notes for this game online or on paper, and you can roll using a program or with physical dice. A respectful, group-first mentality is most important!
What I provide
I will use a second webcam to display a simple physical map on discord. Much of the game will be theater of the mind, with the map assisting in combat. This is the primary way that I run campaigns online, and is a lot of fun. You can take notes for this game online or on paper, and you can roll using a program or with physical dice.

I have years of experience as a therapeutic group leader and counselor. I will maintain a respectful, supportive space, and players are expected to do the same. If you have any questions, please reach out!

How will character creation work
As this is a full campaign, character creation is important. Players are usually comfortable with the 5e system, and could make suitable characters ahead of time. However, there are a variety of reasons we might want to collaborate on character creation. 1. Maybe you've never played before, if so welcome! 2. You might have some questions about custom character design, or want to know what other people are playing 3. The world of Gnomestones goes deep. For more information on in-game lore, visit www.gnomestones.fun/species. Once you sign up, let me know your thoughts on character creation in the game's group message window.
