You could not ask for a better Game Master. Experienced, Knowledgeable, Friendly and most importantly Patient. Whether you are new or been doing this for years, you will discover that you will have a good time all the same!
Boglock
Very inviting and fun, offered a very detailed map with varying options to take and tons of insight on Pathfinder 2e helping me better understand the game. Patient with beginners and is willing to take time to help you gain a better grasp on things.

Christian is very generous with his time, explaining both Pathfinder 2E and TaleSpire as necessary. Very patient. He is also quite good at NPC characterization. Best of all, for those new to StartPlaying, or just "StartPlaying-curious" (like I am), he offers the occasional FREE 1-shot adventure. A fantastic way to dip your toes into the wide, potentially scary world of paid GMs.
Harrgoth

What I provide
🔥 What I Bring to the Table 🔥 This tournament isn’t just about survival—it’s about diving into a fully immersive zombie-slaying experience! 🧟♂️ Cinematic 3D Battle Maps – I run games using TaleSpire, a stunning, fully interactive 3D virtual tabletop that brings the horrors of the horde to life. Every alleyway, barricade, and burning village will be visually realized, making tactical positioning and survival choices more intense than ever. 🛠️ Tournament-Tuned Rules for Maximum Action – This isn’t your standard PF2E session. The tournament uses modified mechanics designed to amplify the action, increase kill counts, and let you unleash your full zombie-slaying potential. Expect faster combat, strategic choices, and high-powered action. 🎁 Hidden Power-Ups & Secrets – Scattered throughout the battlefield are hidden resources, special weapons, and unique upgrades that can turn you into a true zombie-slaying hero. Will you find them before the horde overwhelms you? ⚔️ Pure Combat Fun – This tournament is built for players who love strategic, high-intensity combat. Whether you're testing an optimized build, pushing your limits, or just here for the carnage, you'll get a chance to show off your skills, compete for the leaderboard, and have an absolute blast. 🔥 Get ready to face the undead like never before—because the horde is coming, and only the strongest will survive! 🔥

How will character creation work
🛠️ Character Creation – Your Story Begins Here 🛠️ We’ll be starting at Level 1, giving you the chance to grow into your character, explore the world, and get familiar with your surroundings before diving into the bigger conflicts ahead. I keep character creation flexible and stress-free—you can build your character however you like, using: ✔ Pathbuilder2e ✔ Wanderer’s Guide ✔ Good ol’ pen & paper ✔ Foundry or any other tool you prefer My philosophy? You know how you play best, so use what works for you. Whether you’re a seasoned min-maxer or brand new to the system, I’ll work with you to ensure your character fits into the world and has meaningful connections to the story. Got a wild concept? Want to tweak a background or homebrew something cool? Let’s talk! I’m always open to working with players to make their characters feel unique. 🎭 This is your adventure—build the hero (or anti-hero) you want to be! 🎭
