I had a great time with Natalie. Everything went well and we even did some tactical planning and the DM went with it. I mean doing over 100 damage with good planning was great.

Natalie was great at both mechanical and non-mechanical aspects of the game. Knowledgeable for any quick character questions, and had great sense for when to gloss over a nitty-gritty rule in-game High quality maps utilized, technologically proficient at the skills related to running VTT. Does a fantastic job at characterization (which can be very tough in the online format IMO). Will def play w Natalie again, she is also good for a DM to watch run things to see a different perspective of successful gameplay.

Ran a very fun Saltmarsh one shot for a group of three I was in. She is more than willing to allow room for player creativity and is very patient.

Second time in one shot adventure and DM proved to be wonderful at handling maps, tokens, combats, creature descriptions, knew all the important particulars of each new person's class and was helpful, and making sure everyone had a fantastic adventure. DM seemed very much as if they were enjoying the game's unexpected or funny moments just as much as the players and had some good laughs that also added to the fun of the game for me personally. Fantastic DM. I would not hesitate to join another campaign.

We played a one-shot with Natalie, and I don't think I've ever got through as many encounters in 3 hours as we did with Natalie. They enabled the game to move fast. Every encounter was fun and engaging and unique. Terrific game, so much fun!

Had such an amazing time in a one-shot with DM Natalie! Perfect balance of roleplay / combat / exploration, cool maps that I wanted to explore forever, engaging and exciting gameplay, and just a lovely kind person overall! Definitely recommend playing in one of her games for a guaranteed good time.

How to prepare

Make sure you have discord set up and an account in Roll20 - when you are all set, message me and I'll send you the links for both!!!

What I provide

Roll20 VTT Discord Audio Only (and text chat, just no video) Original content from the game as written with the maps from the OG Sunless Citadel, tokens, ambient sounds - the works! I run the games RAW until such time as a clever or unique thought comes up and rule of cool - guided by dice to see if it's even possible - tends to win out. I operate on common sense and logic - if you explain something well enough I'll definitely consider it. We're here to have FUN for a few hours in classic DND fashion with a couple of modern twists to make it even more fun and dynamic.

Gameplay details

Since there really isn't that much of anything in here which could be triggering to most typical triggers, we will simply use an XNO card which you can drag onto the Roll20 virtual table top and we will stop for a checkin. I run a VERY safe game and while the one shot has some darker subjects of undeath and curses and such - It's just a great time!
