Voices
Storytelling
Creativity
Carpe is the kind of DM/GM that has all the tools to make your gaming experience an awesome one. An engaging storyteller with great eye for descriptive details, he creates living and breathing worlds with characters that you feel involved and attached to. His high level of performance ability and quality of voice work is incredible, and yet he somehow makes those of us with less ability feek comfortable and be confident to explore creatively. All in all, a fantastic and most definately a repeatable experience with a great DM/GM and a good human.
John exceeded all expectations as our Game Master for an in-person one-shot Call of Cthulhu session. He brings the game to life with his incredible voice acting, adding a distinct and engaging flavor to each character he portrays. What stood out the most was his ability to allow significant player freedom. His skillful improvisation when we ventured off the planned path made our experience unpredictable and thrilling. John’s came equipped with well-curated playlists and visual aids that enhanced our immersion into the game's world. I highly recommend him for both beginners and experienced players of Call of Cthulhu. If you're looking for a GM who can bring your game to life with creativity, passion, and expertise, John is your go-to. Looking forward to many more adventures under his guidance!
I've been playing in a campaign DM'd by John for several months now, and previously fought by his (character: her) side for over two years against the evils of the Dessarin Valley. I have loved every moment of the campaign John is DM'ing. He is knowledgeable and adroit, but offers us so much creative exploration and expression as well. Every session he goes out of his way to set the scene and enrich the world in which we find ourselves immersed be it with small details, mise en place and ambiance, and flavorful characters / NPC's we encounter along the way. Further, he is endlessly patient with us - the new folx and vets alike - when it comes to rules, stats, and rolls and fosters an easy environment for our characters to test their chops.

How Carpe the DM creates a safe table
I will be sending out a TTRPG checklist to make sure everyone can communicate their comfort level, and lines and veils. It says "Session 0," but a Session 0 will only happen for parties intending to make the adventure a recurring game (as opposed to a One-Shot).
