If you're looking for an exceptional Dungeon Master, look no further than Emily. From the very first session, it was clear that her technical acumen sets her apart. She has a talent for vividly realizing worlds on a virtual table top in a way that most DMs don't even think to attempt. She masterfully navigates the rules of the game, seamlessly integrating various mechanics to create a smooth and engaging experience for everyone at the table. Emily's ability to adapt on the fly, whether it’s clarifying a rule or modifying a scenario to better fit the party's choices, showcases her deep understanding of the game. Beyond her technical skills, Emily's professionalism is truly commendable. She establishes a welcoming environment where players feel safe to express themselves and take risks with their characters. Her commitment to inclusivity and respect ensures that everyone has a voice, making the game enjoyable for all. She communicates clearly and efficiently, making it easy to keep track of story developments and character arcs. However, what truly elevates Emily as a Dungeon Master is her boundless creativity. The worlds she builds are rich and immersive, filled with intriguing plots, well-developed NPCs, and unexpected twists that keep players on their toes. Her storytelling prowess brings the game to life, transforming simple encounters into memorable adventures. Whether it’s a high-stakes battle or a heartfelt moment between characters, Emily knows just how to strike the right balance, creating a dynamic narrative that keeps everyone engaged. In short, Emily is a phenomenal Dungeon Master who combines technical skill, professionalism, and creativity in a way that enhances every gaming session. Whether you're a seasoned player or new to tabletop RPGs, she is sure to provide an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
It was my first time playing D&D and Emily made it a really great experience. With all the great visual aids and Emily's wonderful narration she makes the story very easy to follow and really fun to be a part of. I definitely recommend Emily to any first time players or just anyone looking for a great experienced and inclusive DM.
Emily creates a deeply entertaining and engaging gaming setting. Her DM style is easygoing and dedicated to the enjoyment of her players, adjusting storylines and gameplay to the tastes of the party which makes the game feel both open and dynamic. I *highly* recommend playing a session with her! (She is hella LGBTQ+ friendly, being a member of the community too.)
Additional details
How to prepare
You will absolutely need: - a Discord account (free) - a D&D Beyond account with at least open character slot - an up to date version of Chrome (free) - a functioning microphone The following are welcome but optional: - a webcam - a character you've already created (changes may be needed to suit the campaign)
What I provide
Not only am I incredibly passionate about D&D and my role as a DM, but I bring the following amazing things to the table: - A customized Foundry VTT instance with a plethora of modifications, maps, ambiences, and more - A Discord server through which I'm always available for questions - Integration with D&D Beyond, so your character sheets will always be up to date outside of game time
Gameplay details
I'll make sure to cover any soft or hard limits players may have during Session 0. This game features some violence, as D&D often does. Uniquely, this campaign DOES offer options for a pacifist playthrough. A Foundry VTT mod used on the server adds blood splatters during combat.

How will character creation work
Character creation can happen during or before session zero. A link to the campaign on D&D Beyond will be shared in advance of the game. Through this, you'll have access to a plethora of shared material to help create the character of your dreams. We're using the 2014 rules, rather than 2024 so please keep that in mind during character creation. When we sit down for session 0, we'll go over (or create) our characters, discuss any soft or hard boundaries in terms of campaign content, and get to know each other. This way we can truly hit the ground running at the start of the campaign. No advanced reading is needed beyond getting familiar with the rules of your chosen class/subclass.
