About me

Hey all! My name is Alex (or iceman, it has been my nickname since I was little kid annnnddd maybe I will have you role a history check to figure out why lol) and I fell in love with DnD! This is actually a pretty recent development for me as for my first DnD session was only a couple of years ago. However, once I played, I was instantly hooked! I have always played DnD games in the past like the original Baldur's Gate on PC, Neverwinter Nights, and Divinity. However, it was a new but incredible experience playing the game as a tabletop game and I could not wait to continue playing. There is a lot for me to learn, no doubt, and that is one of the reasons why I want to be a DM. What better way to really dive into a game, learn the lore and to get involved with the DnD community than to run them! I will make mistakes for sure, but I will always prioritize your fun. You may even be able to sneak some moves past my watchful eye but to be honest, I look forward to those moments. I think clever out of the box ideas is what makes this game fun and I will reward you instead of trying to find ways to reverse them. Overall, I am excited for you to join my table and for us to go on adventures. I will do my best to give you an awesome, exhilarating experience every time we have a session. I will throw in some cool homebrew options throughout the campaign and encourage side quests for your characters to help build your background. Lastly, I am always here to listen to any suggestions or ideas to add to our campaign. So without further adieu, once you are ready to join let me know, and we can get started!

Character creation

Creating your character

Characters will start at level 1 and we will create them through DnD Beyond and transfer them over to Foundry VTT. Session 0 is where we will all meet to go over player's backgrounds, race, class and some other things you will need to know for the quest ahead.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Players are required to have a mic. and webcams are totally optional. I encourage players to have some sort of idea of what character they would like to be before session 0 but I can help with that along the way. Lastly, I encourage players to not be shy and just have fun!

What Iceman (Alex) brings to the table

As your Dungeon Master, my goal is to create an immersive, visually exciting, and character-driven adventure that feels alive from the moment you step into Waterdeep. We’ll be using Discord for voice and Foundry VTT for gameplay, giving us a sleek tabletop experience filled with rich visuals and smooth mechanics. I love using dramatic music, ambient soundscapes, and visual aids to enhance key moments—whether you’re sneaking through a noble estate, fighting in a rain-slick alley, or uncovering the secrets of your new tavern. With animated maps, spell effects, and lively tokens, the city will feel vibrant and reactive to your actions. While I’m not a world-class voice actor, I do enjoy attempting character voices (even if the comedy sometimes comes from how bad they are). I bring a healthy amount of humor and light-hearted energy to the table—never enough to undercut the dramatic moments, but just enough to keep things fun and memorable. If my jokes don’t land… feel free to laugh at me instead. When it comes to gameplay, I strike a balance between engaging roleplay, meaningful exploration, and tactical combat. I respect the Rules as Written, but I’m not afraid to embrace the Rule of Cool—if you propose a creative idea that fits the moment and makes the story better, I’ll always lean toward making it work. Finally, I own all the major sourcebooks, which means you’re free to draw from a wide range of official character options. If you have something unique or unusual in mind, just ask—I want you to play a character you’re genuinely excited about.
