About me
Hello, my name is Joe, I'm 28 years old & I have been a DM for the past 6 years running both games online through roll20 & in real life. I have had overwhelmingly positive feedback from my many players which has prompted me to start hosting games on here. I am a fair & enthusiastic DM who promises a compelling story with a clear, concise narrative with plenty of whacky characters & voices along the way. I'm confident 2 sessions & my stories will have you hooked, however if I'm not the DM for you I understand & so I would like to offer the first 2 sessions of any campaign I run for free so if you aren't satisfied with my DM'ing, you haven't wasted any money. Don't be shy, say hello & let's embark on original & unforgettable adventures.
