About me

Greetings! I'm David, and I've been playing TTRPGs for close to 20 years, and been running them as a DM/Storyteller for over fifteen years, mainly in D&D and Vampire: The Masquerade. My goal in hosting any game is to give the players the best experience possible, including ambient music and soundtracks, heavily modified and customized FoundryVTT tabletops with web-based hosting, help in learning the game's system and rules (yes, even if you are new!) and a *collaborative* storytelling experience that immerses you in the world we're exploring. What do I mean by collaborative storytelling? I strive to make every player feel included in both the group of players and in the telling of the actual story, whether it be high fantasy or modern day. My favorite and most memorable campaigns as a player have always brought the group of players together in telling a great story with input from everyone, not just the GM. That being said, the games I run tend to be more role-play than roll-play, so if that's something you're looking for, I hope to see you in a game sometime soon!

I couldn't recommend David enough! I had decided to finally dip my toes into the WoD setting and I couldn't have ask for a better person to take this journey with. His stories are really compelling, immersive, and have you wishing the week would hurry up and pass by so you can see what happens next. He can take a simple character concept and make one of the best stories I've seen around them where you find yourself loving your character even more. Beyond all of this, he's just a fantastic guy all around: friendly, easy to talk to, and truly cares for his players

I don't even know where to begin. This man is a Storyteller and while his worlds have their own stories and their own layers of intrigue the players might never see he is still here first and foremost to facilitate you telling the story of your characters with as much or as little input as you give you'll find your characters being taken in directions that you couldn't have anticipated. If you're looking for a game where you can fully manifest your character then this is the storyteller for you.

As a new player to the VtM system, Dave was a great guide. The sky's the limit for these games.

LongNight has a laid back style of GMing but do not let that fool you. If a player want to be intensive in their planning, lore, backstory and playstyle. It happens and he will create the perfect environment for it to Flourish. Because LongNight's style produces an environment where his players are able to fully shine no matter where they came from. New players are able to slowly creep their way with learning to play with the systems while more experienced players are able to go all out and fully explore the world, system and experience they want to go. I Wholly recommend LongNight as a GM :)!!!!

The LongNight brings a passion to the game that elevates it to a whole new level. They are not only passionate about the world that they have created but also your characters place in it. They make it very easy to get and stay engaged with the story. Amazing job one of the best I've played with.
