About me

Hi! I'm Mike As someone that has played and run tabletop games for over 15 years, I've found countless hours of enjoyment in roleplaying games. I've been playing some form of D&D since I was in school, starting out initially playing 3.5 with friends at college. As time passed I moved from just playing to running One-shots and Stories for those very friends, I found that while being a player is a fun experience, being able to write stories for others is where I thrive. This grew from One-shots to full campaigns where I transitioned from just a part time dungeon master. I started homebrewing, building my own unique worlds, which players bring to life with the actions and tales they weave within it. I still run established modules and find them to be great frameworks and backgrounds to the characters within, allowing players to shine as stand out individuals within the established lore of the system they are in. This gives me the chance to showcase player character backstories and quests.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

A working microphone and Discord account are required. Foundry will be used for the table top, all the rules and information will be contained within it. A basic understanding of the rules is a bonus but by no means required.

What BearlyDM brings to the table

Players can look forward to a thoughtfully crafted selection of engaging and challenging puzzles designed to stimulate creative thinking and problem-solving. With extensive experience in tabletop gaming, including Dungeons & Dragons and various other systems, I offer a patient and approachable style of play. I take pride in bringing characters to life with a range of voices, ensuring an immersive experience. Additionally, I provide high-quality maps, custom token art, and access to Foundry VTT for an enhanced virtual tabletop experience. My goal is to foster a welcoming and supportive community within the campaigns and one-shots I run, where players can freely engage with one another, share their passion for tabletop games, and feel safe discussing all aspects of the hobby.
