Great DM. Knows a lot about the game and always willing to help players out and answer any questions. Had a lot of fun with his campaign.

Having played several sessions with Olaf as Game Master for Pathfinder 2e, I can confidently recommend him to both new and experienced players looking for a welcoming, engaging, and flexible GM. Olaf stands out for his patience and willingness to teach, making him especially great for newcomers to Pathfinder 2e or tabletop RPGs in general. He creates a relaxed atmosphere where players are encouraged to learn at their own pace, never feeling pressured by the system's complexity or rules. Olaf’s approach is to focus on fun and story, rather than strict adherence to rules. Olaf’s sessions are rich with narrative detail and world-building. He brings the setting to life with a mix of humour, vivid descriptions, and emotional stakes. The world feels dynamic, with multiple plots and crises unfolding simultaneously, giving players plenty of opportunities to shape the story. I highly recommend Olaf for anyone looking to explore Golarion and beyond with a supportive and creative Game Master.

Playing in Olaf's campaign is a breath of fresh air. Olaf is a very welcoming Game Master who is willing to teach the game and put up with newbies like myself to new TTRPG systems. He is patient and allows the players to grow into themselves. When playing, he is engaging and very fair. For me, every session is fantastic and I eagerly await for the next one!

I had a great time at Olaf's table! He's a wonderful storyteller and seamlessly added my PC & story to an ongoing campaign. He creates a comfortable and easy-going environment that allows creativity to flow. I recommend joining one of Olaf's games. You'll be glad you did!

How to prepare
You will need: Internet connection 💻 Functional microphone and speakers (or headphones). 💻 A Forge (free) account (https://forge-vtt.com/) 💻 A Chromium compatible web browser Opera, Opera GX, Chrome, or Edge (or its equivalent on mac). 🎮 Discord user account. 🐲 A DnDBeyond (free) account is recommended, but not necessary ❌ Don't bring TRASH (Transphobia, Racism, Ableism, Sexism, Homophobia) to the table. If I, at 50+ years of age, have chosen not to be a prejudiced grumpy old man and treat everyone who approaches me with respect, being younger you can do that, right?
What I provide
I have all the digital assets needed to run the game including: 💻 Virtual tabletop (Foundry VTT) Choice of audio input for soundboard or soundtrack in discord. 💯 Chill game: You don't need to act, do voices, math, or have experience to play. Except for being rude and uncaring to your fellow players, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to play, just different styles for different people. 🧙♂️ Life long experience in teaching playing and mastering TTRPGs 📚 For those of you who just must know the books (I love you for it) I draw for you : We will be using DnD 5e core rulebooks*, Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting and Ryoko's Guide to the Yokai Realms.

Discord chat or live conversation with me to let me know of potential triggers, game tones you enjoy. If you have or want a copy of Monte Cook RPG Consent Checklist you can ask for or deliver it. After every session: sending of stars and wishes.

How will character creation work
I'll provide whatever level of assistance you want, the instructions below are only for experienced players: 2014 rules (Weapon masteries from RGttYR will be used): Level 1 characters (if you have a clear idea you can give me an outline of them up to 3rd lvl). All options from the 5 core rule books available as well as Cyclopian, Gobboc, Lotol, Ombrask, Oozekin and Rakin ancestries and all classes and sub-classes from Heliana's Guide to Monster Hunting Modified ability score array: 17 15 15 12 10 8 --or-- Roll with me 4d6 drop lowest up to three times (bad sets are awarded a luck pool) You can move an ancestry (race) +1 from your +2 or a +1 to an ability score that currently has no positive modifier from.✳ Character building may be done entirely thru DnDbeyond, however take into account that some choices (like selecting the tamer class or the ✳ marked change) may force us to do it on foundry. I don't mess with family, friends and significant others unless I have consent, and I encourage you to include some in a short backstory: please give me three "safe" NPCs I won't mess with, and one I can put in peril for you to rescue or for me to put thru "A series of unfortunate events" (Pat. Pending by Lemony Snicket).
