Meet the Game Master
About me
💥 1 of the **TOP** Recommended DM's on StartPlaying! 💥 (*Most of the time*) I'm so happy you're here! Well, get ready for my edgelord backstory... Since I was young, I've always loved fantasy storytelling. Finding a passion for TTRPG's has reignited a part of me that I thought I had lost. That childlike Imagination and creativity, newly reborn into something better; more mature, closer to the heart. Above everything else, that is what I stand to offer to my players. With me, you'll be transported to amazing worlds of daring adventure, soaring joy, and sorrowful heartache. I offer an experience bathed in wonder without losing the humanity that makes stories truly great. I'm a writer/Digital Artist, so you best believe that you'll see me bring that to our games! I'm also VERY accepting of people's identities, so you can be sure to find a safe space at my table. (Unless you're a dickbag)

Storytelling
Voices
Inclusive
I'm in four of his games. Send help. Jokes aside, Alex is genuinely the best DM I've had. He genuinely incorporates your character's background into the story, and really allows you to bend the storyline. Being in multiple games of the same campaign has really shown me how much he allows your characters to shape their own story.
I’ve struggled for a really long time to find my game. You know that game that comes along every once in a blue moon, the one that has you chomping at the bit? The one that blows every single game you’ve ever played out of the water? This is that game. The story that I’ve gotten to become apart of, even in a short amount of time, has truly become the highlight of my week. Every session is a new adventure and you have no clue where it leads. Did I mention the amount of inclusivity is off the charts? From NPCs of vary sexualities and genders to representation that was left out of the books. Alex has truly reignited the passion that I had for this world when I was just a kid and reading about 4 Privet Drive for the very first time, and I cannot wait to continue the journey.
If you’re looking for an incredible Game Master then you should look no further! It’s been a long time since I was able to join a campaign as effortlessly enjoyable and wonderfully whimsical as this. Alex is genuinely such a spectacular GM and his dedication to the world and his players is just as much of a treat to witness as it is to be able to experience in real time during a session. He had an immediately infectious attitude that shines through with his genuine care, joy and charisma. To me there’s no greater GM around with such an excellent understanding of how to foster an environment of magic and fun. I love this game and my fellow players very much and it’s something that’s quickly become the absolute highlight of my week. If you’re a hesitant person like me, don’t be, I can guarantee you won’t regret it. Magic awaits!
Alex is an incredibly dedicated and talented DM. From the details in the maps to the diverse cast of NPCs, every session has captivated me! Alex has done a truly great job at bringing Hogwarts to life. He's been a joy to play with and the atmosphere at his table has always felt safe and inclusive. Alex also does a great job of letting each player shine and making our failures fun. The storytelling alone is top tier. You won't regret playing.
Alex is, simply put, one of the best GMs I've ever had, and I have been playing and running TTRPGs for 12+ years. I have never seen a GM do a better job of incorporate player character motivations and backstories better. I have also never seen someone do a better job of describing scenes and setting them up, particularly emotionally powerful scenes. Alex is also a very kind, considerate GM and is very receptive to feedback. He always takes player safety into account and is very inclusive and accepting of players of all backgrounds. I would strongly recommend playing in one of his campaigns. They are almost sure to be some of the most memorable of your TTRPG career.

How 💎Alexander Kay creates a safe table
~ABOUT ME~ Since I was young, I've always loved fantasy storytelling. Finding a passion for TTRPG's has reignited a part of me that I thought I had lost. That childlike Imagination and creativity, newly reborn into something better; more mature, closer to the heart. Above everything else, that is what I stand to offer to my players. With me, you'll be transported to amazing worlds of daring adventure, soaring joy, and sorrowful heartache. I offer an experience bathed in wonder without losing the humanity that makes stories truly great. I'm a writer/Digital Artist, so you best believe that you'll see me bring that to our games! I'm also VERY accepting of people's identities, so you can be sure to find a safe space at my table. (Unless you're a dickbag) ~Style~ Roleplay Style: In-character conversations, Voices, Character descriptions, Backstories, Culture, etc. Combat Style: In my opinion, the best fight is one where the players *almost* die, but snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. I won't fudge my rolls, but when things are dire, I'll often offer my opinion or advice. I'm rooting for you, but without the threat of death, combat can't carry real emotional intensity. World Immersion: You best believe I have entire languages, countries, cultures, and belief systems planned out. I've got enough planning to fool you crazy people into believing I've got it all figured out, and just enough of it unplanned to make sure I can change details on the fly. Rule of Cool Style: I won't allow just ANY fun idea to happen, but if it makes sense and is plausible, you're probably gonna receive advantage on the roll. Some things are too cool not to work. Rules OR Fun: Rules bring order and balance to TTRPG's, So I'm more likely to abide by them more often than not. However, if a rule is causing a lack of enjoyment for me or my players, I'll structure a new one. Adult Content: In this game, since we are roleplaying as young adults, there will be hard limits set for "mature" behavior, which will change slowly as your character gets older. All boundaries are chosen with the goal in mind to be acceptable limitations for your characters age, without hindering player choices. We use a Traffic Light system where players are able to flag things to skip or stop play altogether whenever there is an issue. Players are also required to complete a safety checklist that ensures their personal sensibilities can be handled healthily while at the table. Very obviously, SA and any allusion to such a thing will be COMPLETELY BANNED from the game.
