About me
I’m a Dungeon Master passionate about storytelling and making sure every player feels welcome at the table. I am a psychologist and I try bringing that into the table. I enjoy both deep, atmospheric roleplay and quick, action-packed adventures. I’ve guided many new players through their very first session, and I always make sure the table feels approachable no matter your level of experience. My focus is on open communication and making the game adapt to the players’ expectations, whether that’s heavy roleplay, tactical combat, exploration, or just a mix of everything. At my table you can expect: - Open communication: I check in with players to make sure everyone feels comfortable and heard. - A safe space: Respect and inclusivity are at the core of how I run games. - Flexible style: I adapt the tone and pacing of the story to match what the group enjoys. - Player focus: Whether you’re a new adventurer or a seasoned veteran, I’ll make sure the experience is fun and engaging for you. - Memorable stories: From gothic horror in Barovia to fast, exciting one-shots, I aim to create sessions that stick with you. My goal is simple: when you leave the table, you’ll feel like you had fun, connected with the group, and lived through a story worth remembering.

Creating your character
This is entirely up to you. You are free to create whatever character you'd like - But I will have introductory sessions with you to provide context and guide you, if needed.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Once you have shown interest in the campaign, I will give you access to my discord server where we will have a couple of meetings to set everything up, and get the ball rolling.
