About me
[I RUN DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS 2024 EDITION] "Ryan does an incredible job making you feel included and make you feel comfortable with speaking your ideas. He tells you the mechanics of how to achieve your ideas and enjoys your successes with you. "200+ games sitting at this man's table I feel more than qualified to tell you that Ryan is a fantastic DM. He is knowledgeable of the rules, but tends to help you find ways to subvert them just enough to keep the most important rule of all. The rule of cool." Hello! Thanks for considering me to be your Game Master (GM)! My name is Ryan and I can take you on an exciting adventure! It started for me back in high school, almost ten years ago. My best friend and were always drafting up board games and were eventually introduced to tabletop roleplaying games (TTRPGs) through a mutual friend who GMed for us. I loved how much more immersed and interactive a roleplaying game was compared to the board games and video games I grew up playing. Needless to say, I was hooked! Through my time as a GM since then, I've helped tables develop a community aspect. Here you don't just show up and leave on time like some 9-5 job, you're here to make memories with some awesome players who love the game as much as you. No matter who you are or what you believe, let's have fun together and see our heroes in exciting action against mighty foes!
