About me
๐ Hello hello!~ If you're looking for a DM who can think on the fly, gives each hero a moment to shine, and is flexible enough to run a one shot about prancing through a field of flowers or a death defying epic that pushes players to creative limits-- then I'm your DM. I've played alongside Matt Mercer while working with 826LA, hosted corporate events, run online sessions with players around the world, I have a background in acting and improv, and have been writing and running my own personal homebrew campaign for the past 4 years- every Monday! It's been an amazing journey, and I'd love to put those skills to good use! I find a lot of joy in worldbuilding both solo and cooperatively through art, lore, and gameplay, and my favorite thing is forming those awesome and epic tales that play out like movies in our minds. TTRPGs are just a fantastic hobby and passion- we all know that right? I'd love to show ya what I can do, and I'm so excited to start weaving our stories into beautiful tapestries!
View Profile โCharacter creation
Creating your character
๐ In the Discord, a DnDBeyond link along with guidelines will be available! All official sources are content shared via the link-- no need to worry! Making your character before our session 0 is ideal, but not necessary. ๐ If you'd feel more comfortable using a pregenerated character then that's no problem at all, there are several pregenerated characters that you can use as they are or as templates to help get a jump start from! Just let me know and I can help you out.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
๐ You'll just need a mic, a web browser like Chrome/Firefox/Opera/Edge, and a Discord account to play along. Webcams are preferred but not required if you'd feel more comfortable without one.
What Maximillian (Bons) brings to the table
๐ We will be playing through Foundry VTT with DnD Beyond integration. All rulebooks will be content shared, so you don't need to worry about a thing. ๐ During our session 0, we'll run over the basics of FoundryVTT, go over our lines and veils, meet our players and party members, and go over any world information needed for the upcoming adventure. ๐ I'll be sure to create a vast and immersive experience complete with soundscapes and music. I love to facilitate character moments in session, as well as weave personal stories into the wacky world! ๐ We can go over the rule of cool preference in our session 0, but lets be real here... we're playing through a wacky painting-diving mind bending campaign. If it plays into the greater story, then rule of cool all the way!
