Burdy is a blast to play with! He takes your ideas and runs with them, so even if you are playing a module, he will be more than happy to take you off the beaten path. Also, if you have a cool backstory, he will most definitely include it. I'm 17 sessions into a campaign and I feel like my character is being seen and challenged, and I'm constantly waiting for game time to start all week once we wrap a session.

Burdy is a phenomenal Game Master, especially for new players! His deep knowledge of the rules allows him to guide both beginners and veterans seamlessly, creating an interactive and inclusive experience for everyone at the table. The world he has built is incredibly immersive and well thought out, full of rich details, dynamic NPCs, and meaningful player choices. He masterfully balances storytelling, mechanics, and player agency, ensuring every session is engaging and memorable. Whether you're new to the game or a seasoned player, you'll feel welcomed and supported in his campaigns. Highly recommend!

Crafty, funny guy who puts the work in! He clearly puts a lot of heart and effort into crafting his campaigns, and has a ton of knowledge about the game. But, he's not afraid to add his own creative twists. His world-building is highly imaginative and immersive for the group. We've had some truly memorable moments, like the legendary goat "Fuckface" and the satisfying demise of "Des Tiny." (At least, satisfying to us LOL sorry buddy) Sure, nobody's perfect, but if you enjoy a great accent and a willingness to dig in and kick some ass, you'll be happy as a clam.

Burdy is a fantastic DM and balances game rules with player enjoyment level nicely. He challenges the players in the best way possible, making sure that there is a sense of danger or opportunity around every corner. Every session ends with a sense of character development and accomplishment and he manages to weave character plot lines carefully throughout the main story. Well done!

This guy knows what he is doing alright. All my stupid ideas are made to sound a little less stupid and 20X more coolio. Also very funny.

How to prepare

just make sure you have access to discord and dndbeyond that is all you really need.

What I provide

I will provide all tools needed for the games as I try and make it as easy as possible for my players. You can expect a very easy going style of play, it set in an open world so you are free to what you wish. Please bring on as much chaos as you'd like to bring and most of all enjoy yourself.

Gameplay details

I am happy to go over anything that you need to, if I feel there is something in the game that might upset anyone or put anyone in a uncomfortable circumstance then I will shut it down all things will be discussed privately and in a group situation if I feel the need of it. I will ask everyone to come to for any concerns or questions before and games and there is always a way contact me outside of games.
