About me
Hey, I'm Andrew and one of my greatest passions is role-playing games and creating worlds that people can enjoy. I have been playing role-playing games for 6 years now and DMing for 3 years, most of my experience is Dungeons and Dragons 5e and Call of Cthulhu, but I am always up for learning a new system that better fits the story I want to tell or is just more enjoyable for the player. When it comes to my players the most important thing is that they are having an enjoyable and fun time and feel like their character is affecting the story and the world around them. I am always open to changing my stories to better fit the situation or based on player feedback. For the most part, we will be using Discord for voice chat and then using Foundry VTT for gameplay but if a player is not comfortable using either of these we can discuss alternative sites to use.

How Andrew creates a safe table
At the start of a session after everyone arrives we will have a short recap of the last session just to remind everyone of what happened last time. If players are uncomfortable with certain topics or do not want to cross certain lines then just message me and I will adjust the content accordingly. Breaks will be halfway through the session and will last about 10 minutes. At the end of the session, we will have a feedback section where the players will tell me what they thought about the session and talk about what could be improved, what went well, what didn't go well, and anything they want to bring up.
