As a newbie playing any RPG, I found this GM was amazing at making me feel comfortable and included. I would recommend this GM for any newbie starting out especially if you are shy and not overly comfortable with knowing the rules.

Solar Jedi is clearly very interested in DND and is great at getting into the mechanics of the game and explaining everything clearly.

Solar Jedi is great! I had a Learn to Play session with him and it was super helpful. He is obviously very knowledgeable, experienced, and passionate about dnd. I had gone through session zero for my first campaign and felt a little out of my depth, and he was able to provide me with information and tips that made playing a lot more enjoyable. He tailored a lot of what we talked about to the specific questions I had. I had session one of the campaign yesterday, and I felt so much more confident! I would highly recommend a Learn to Play session with Solar Jedi for newcomers to dnd.
