About me

Hey, I’m a chill transmasc DM with a knack for storytelling that pulls players right into the heart of the action. I’m all about creating an immersive experience that balances the excitement of epic, rule-bending moments with the structure of the game’s mechanics. As a “rule of cool” DM, I believe in rewarding creative ideas—if it’s cool enough, I’ll make it work, but I do still keep things grounded in the game’s rules to keep everything fair and fun. I’m a security professional by trade, working towards becoming a teacher, but storytelling is where my real passion lies. I run my own D&D campaign content on YouTube, handling everything from editing to music and animation, so you know I take my craft seriously. When I’m not weaving stories or working, I’m also into streaming as a hobby, and I’m definitely a sucker for all things D&D, custom classes, and races. Oh, and if you ever need a transforming motorcycle in your campaign, I’ve got ideas.

Younger participants will receive simpler sheets with clear icons and straightforward descriptions, while older players will have more detailed options to explore their characters' abilities.

Guided Creation Process: I’ll facilitate the character creation process, walking players through each step. This includes: Selecting a Station and reading its abilities.

Encouragement of Creativity: Players are encouraged to get creative with their characters! I’ll support them in coming up with fun backstories or unique traits that add flavor to their roles, fostering engagement and excitement. Final Review: Once character sheets are completed, I’ll review them with each player to ensure they understand their abilities and how to use them effectively during the game. This also gives me a chance to answer any questions and make sure everyone feels ready to jump into the adventure. By keeping the character creation process engaging and age-appropriate, I aim to create a fun foundation for the adventure ahead. Let’s get ready to embark on an exciting journey together!
