About me
When I was around 10 years of age I was handed a copy of the 1983 Dungeons and Dragons basic rules (a copy that I still have to this day). Since then I have been captured by the fun of running all kinds of pen and paper games, consistently improving and trying to create the most fulfilling gaming experience I can. Since starting here on Startplaying, I have learned so much and improved my games tenfold in a bid to create something truly memorable for everyone who joins my table. I work hard at detailing every aspect of my games and ensure that they are to a standard that is above and beyond what you find at most tables. This is a process that has no true end and to that degree I am always looking for feedback and ways to improve the experience wherever I can. Please take a look at my games which are currently recruiting and see if there is any that interest you, all of my tables are a inclusive and welcoming space for anyone who wants to play. I work hard to create a community that is friendly and helpful to everyone who decides to join us.

Creating your character
Character creation will happen in session. We like to link our characters as much as possible through relationships and shared connections to give players stakes when RPing their characters, this works best when it is a collaborative process with everyone present.
