About me
I’m a Word Slinger by trade, a storyteller by soul, and a forever GM by happy accident. I didn’t set out to live behind the screen—but once I caught the fever, I never looked back. That was over 15 years ago, before the first signs of snow settled into my beard. Since then, I’ve guided countless adventurers from their first d20 roll to legendary status. Some campaigns have lasted years, and I’ll keep the story alive as long as the table’s having fun. That’s my promise: if you’re invested, I’m all in. I specialize in immersive, emotionally resonant experiences tailored to each player. Subtle details, personalized arcs, and a welcoming atmosphere are my tools of the trade. Whether you’re new to roleplay or a seasoned thespian, I create a space where you can relax, explore, and connect with the story. I love theatrics—costumes, themed nights, and dramatic twists—but player comfort and safety always come first. Your enjoyment is the heart of every session. No matter the setting or system, my goal remains the same: to guide you through a memorable, meaningful adventure that leaves you eager for the next session.
View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
We will use DnD Beyond for character creation and sheets. I also use their VTT, so it makes it easy for all of us. Create your character there, and we will add it to the campaign once you are signed up. If you do not know how to create a character, that is not an issue. Sign up, and I will be happy to walk you through it as much as you need me to.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
We will use Discord for audio and video. So you will need a free account with them. We will use DnDBeyond for characters and the maps. You will need a free account with them. Other than those two accounts, all you have to do is be prepared to have a good time!
What Christopher brings to the table
For this adventure, I will provide a setting that is mysterious, exciting, and funny. It will feel like you are in the lead in a detective show. I will employ the Rule of Cool Heavily along this path! I run this tale with the mindset of the players having something exciting to remember after it is all said and done. I will not put your creativity in a box!

Safety
How Christopher creates a safe table
When you sign up for this adventure, you will have access to the Discord Server. There, you will fill out a consent form and send it back to me privately. This will allow me to know your comfort levels on all topics that may be sensitive. Also, I keep my private messages up during gameplay, which allows players to message me if they need a break or if a problem has arisen. I do not mind breaks as needed. My main goal in any game I run is for my players to have a positive experience. This cannot be achieved if someone does not feel included, comfortable, and safe.
