About me
Hello, fellow adventurers! I'm not a newcomer to TTRPGs, but I'm not a native English speaker. No worries, though! If you can spare some patience for me not understanding some obscure spice names or unfamiliar bird species, we're in for an amazing experience of mystery and adventure together! With over 10 years of GMing under my belt, I can assure you that the adventure itself won't be a problem. I typically start with basic modules for the early levels and then delve into custom campaigns and mysteries for level 5 and beyond. One important lesson I've learned is that you can become skilled at something you don't initially enjoy doing. That's why I've ventured into paid games. I absolutely love playing and hosting RPG adventures, but I lack the patience required to manage players who aren't fully engaged in the game. If you're investing in this experience, I expect your commitment. If you can't make it to the next session, just let me know. If you're struggling with your character sheet or need help with the system, don't hesitate to ask for assistance. The campaign will go on as scheduled, with or without you, since you're investing in this journey. If you need anything before the game, please reach out to me. While I'll primarily be hosting D&D 5e games here, I also have experience with GURPS, D&D 3.5, and Vampire. If you're interested in a custom setting, feel free to ask if it's possible! I'm looking forward to seeing you at the next table, ready for epic tales and unforgettable moments! Best regards, DarkStormer

Dark has weaved a story that embraces free flowing game play and role playing. The campaign is evolving and my character feels powerful and a part of the world setting placed in front of him. Dark has given my character many opportunities to be successful, and positively influence other denizens of the crafted world, despite how cursed my dice are.
The DM created a super fun, safe atmosphere and let everyone role play as much or as little as they wanted. Great environment for beginners as well, as he is willing to explain anything. Entertaining battles and interesting stories, but most importantly he knows how to add FLAVOR. Loved every session! Highly recommend.
Character creation
Creating your character
After Session 0, it's time to bring your characters to life! Whether you're new to D&D or a seasoned adventurer, I'm here to help you with the character creation process. You have the freedom to create your character independently if you wish, but I'm more than happy to assist you every step of the way. We'll collaborate to build your character sheet together. This serves a dual purpose - it helps you ensure that your character is well-crafted and aligned with your vision, while also allowing me to keep a record of your character's details. During this process, we'll go through a checklist to make sure nothing is overlooked. We want your character to be fully prepared for the adventures that await. We'll discuss your character's backstory, abilities, equipment, and any special features they might have. Remember, this is a chance for you to shape your character's story and personality. Feel free to ask questions, seek advice, and let your imagination run wild. We're here to create a character that fits seamlessly into our campaign world. So, whether you're a master of character creation or just starting out, know that I'm here to support you. Together, we'll craft characters that will shine in the unfolding story. Don't hesitate to reach out to me when you're ready, and we'll embark on this creative journey together!

What to expect
Preparing for the session
Session Requirements and Guidelines: Microphone: A working microphone is required for our sessions. Clear communication is essential for role-playing and collaborative storytelling. If you encounter any microphone issues, please let me know in advance so we can find a suitable solution. Basic Rules: While it's great if you're already familiar with the basic rules of D&D 5e, don't worry if you're new to the game. I'm more than happy to explain the rules and assist you, especially during character creation and the early sessions. Learning the rules together can be part of the fun! Webcams: I will have my webcam on during our sessions to facilitate communication and create a more immersive experience. However, I only request that you to use your webcam if you're comfortable with it, particularly if you want to roll physical dice. Remember, our primary goal is to have fun, immerse ourselves in the world of Dungeons & Dragons, and create memorable adventures together.

Let's embark on this epic journey together!
What Dark Stormer brings to the table
My primary goal is to empower you and your fellow friends. I embrace the idea of multiclassing and encourage the exploration of custom content that enhances your character's unique journey. Feel free to approach me with your ideas and preferences. open-world setting: I find immense joy in watching your creative ideas come to life through exploration. If your party is in agreement, I am more than willing to craft a custom dungeon or location that aligns with your desires. This could range from acquiring a particular item to establishing a guild or even constructing a personal abode. Whatever you aspire to achieve, I will endeavor to make it a reality. amazing consumables: These special recipes offer your character additional benefits such as extra spell slots, expanded magical knowledge, proficiency with tools and skills, and even expertise. The only caveat is to avoid overlapping functionalities with your fellow players. While you can engage in crafting, it's often more efficient to leave it to a specialized character like an artificer for the best results. Similarly, enchanting items may be better left in the capable hands of a mage. Moreover, while our main adventure unfolds in the campaign setting, I want you to know that you are not bound by its constraints. You are free to diverge from the main storyline and engage in new, exciting content generated straight from my imagination. This approach ensures that you have the freedom you deserve and are never railroaded into a predetermined path.
