About me
As someone who started their journey with tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) not too long ago, I remember the excitement and nervousness that came with it. Having a safe, guided opportunity to play these games was something I wanted, and now I want to give back to this community by giving those same opportunities to others. In my games, we will have a Session 0 (for FREE!) to go over the technology, character creation, and safety tools. This also gives everyone a chance to connect to make sure that you feel comfortable playing with the people who joined the game. During gameplay, I explain the rules as we go through the adventure, provide suggestions on what characters can do in situations, set up epic moments to occur, bring non-player characters (NPCs) to life with voice acting and personalities, and most importantly, HAVE FUN! I look forward to being your Game Master and making TTRPGs fun for you!

Crit is a solid and knowledgeable DM, works with new players to learn the ropes. If something comes up he doesn't know he works to get the answer and get back with the player at the next session or in-between sessions. Rewards creativity for solutions and makes learning the game a breeze. Excellent choice for both new and returning players wanting to jump back in.

sean is such an incredible DM!! he’s patient when players don’t know how an ability or mechanic works, and helps explain it to them yo help them understand. he’s good at explaining what he’s doing and why, and he’s enthusiastic about the game, which is so important. he’s also very talented at the storytelling and immersive parts of DMing, and is great at encouraging roleplay between players. i absolutely love having sean as my DM!

We've only had one session so far but Sean is great. He keeps things moving, gives everyone a chance to provide input and seems to do what he can to give freedom to do what you want and to find a way to allow it. I've technically played before a little, but this felt like a good first real session. I look forward to many more!

Crit Hit the Giant (aka Sean) conducts an outstanding "Learn to Play Daggerheart" session. His deep knowledge of Daggerheart—and role-playing games more broadly—is truly extraordinary. He is unquestionably an impresario gamemaster, blending mastery of the game with the rare ability to guide both experienced players and complete novices such as myself with sublime patience and infectious enthusiasm. His sessions are not only informative but genuinely fun and engaging. I sincerely look forward to joining other courses and campaigns run by Sean.

Patient teacher, knowledgeable, creative, encourages player creativity, and terrific story teller! Everything you need in an amazing Game Master! Had a fantastic and fun time in my Daggerheart one-shot! Will definitely play in another one-shot or campaign in any system he runs!

Lots of fun, and did a really good job at introducing us to the system and VTT we used. Great work!
Character creation
Creating your character
When you join, you'll be sent a message from me with a link to Demiplane to create your character. If you don't have an account with Demiplane, plan to make one - it's free!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Feel free to make your characters ahead of time, but it is not necessary. I would suggest at least having an image that will represent your character to use as a token. We will use the following: -Owlbear Rodeo (for our Virtual Tabletop) -Demiplane (for character sheets) -Discord (for video/voice chat and communications)
