Game style

Rule of Cool (RoC)

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

Theater of the Mind

“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Roleplay Heavy

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

The BEST. Five whole stars are simply not enough for Nikki. Though, it is with great sadness I say that I cannot express all my LOVE to Nikki properly in this review but alas text limits exist, because yes, yes I could write at least a 20 page essay on why Nikki and her games are phenomenal. Nikki is generous, caring, hilarious, so kind, and one of the most talented and amazing people in existence. Her dialogue, mannerism, and accents for the immense cast of characters she plays are incredible, her descriptions of scenes and game plan designs are always awesome. Exclusivity, thoughtfulness, commitment, communication, and community are all things Nikki brings to the table. Receiving tokens earned in game are not just sweet, but also such a neat touch Nikki has implemented on top of personalized letters. She offers no shortage of chances for players to be creative, she helps set the mood with music and other visual aids too. My love for DND has only grown to new heights because of her. I miss playing already and all the wonderful players I have had the chance to meet, play with, and befriend are unmatched.

Beyond delighted to have found Nikki as a DM! If you what you miss from typical start-playing games is character integration with the plot, Nikki is the best DM for you. She always takes such care to weave every characters backstory, wants and desires into the world, while making sure everybody has the appropriate ammount of time to shine. If you’re more of a roleplayer then a combat enjoyer, this is the best roleplay-heavy table you’re gonna find!

Nikki is a wonderful GM, she always tries to make sure players are comfortable, does such an amazing job weaving elements of player backstory and history into the story. Our TSL campaign was filled with so many great roleplay moments, her world felt alive and her npcs dynamic and engaging, truly had such a great time playing at her table!

I’ve been playing in Nikki’s games for almost 2 years now, and she is absolutely one of the best GMs I’ve played with. Her tables are so inclusive, and I felt so welcomed right from the start during the first session 0. These games are such a highlight of my week, and I’ve so many memories, and such great friends, that I treasure so much. Join one of her games, you won’t regret it!

I had an amazing time playing a session run by Nikki! Her storytelling was captivating, and the voices and personalities she brought to her NPCs were absolutely standout, making the world feel incredibly immersive. She kept the game flowing smoothly, balanced action and roleplay perfectly, and made sure everyone felt included. I highly recommend Nikki to anyone looking for a fun, professional, and engaging D&D experience!

Nikki was amazing! The plot of the one shot she ran was so engaging. She's also perfect for newer players - very supportive, helps explain the mechanics and helps make the role play comfortable!
