"Delusion is a cornerstone of this world. The only thing that can be assured is I, and the World. All things else, are in truth a lie we tell in order to process the cruel nature of reality. Song, soul and friendship are naught but delusions we use to comfort ourselves. The delusion of friendship though, despite how much I know it is a delusion, it is one I desperately wish was real." - From The Truth within the lie, a translated work from Hrigg Roundrook.

Very fun DM to play with, super knowledgeable and great at keeping the game on track while still allowing for shenanigans. Would totally recommend picking up a game with him.

I played a mini-campaign with Samuel and had a fun time. He ran a well paced adventure with plenty of action. His voicing of "a certain pointy-hatted wizard" was spot on. In addition, Samuel is a good listener and takes the time to let everyone contribute to a conflict resolution before moving on. Would play again.

I feel so lucky to have had Samuel as DM for my first campaign! Not only is he a fun and creative storyteller and voice actor, he's patient with new players and always is sure to include everyone at the table in the fun. A wonderful choice for any player. I'm eager to join in another adventure ASAP!

Samuel is a great DM who always makes sure everyone at the table is having fun and feels included. He's very open and adapets to crazy ideas his players come up with - rewarding creativity. He also sets the mood with great ambient music and voice acting for the characters we players have to interact with. I'm having a great time altogether and looking forward to continue in his campaigns for a long time.
