About me
HI, I'm Zero. I've been a DM for over 15 years, almost exclusively with new players and have become, in my humble opinion, quite good at it. I'd like to offer that experience to other people who wish to enter the wonderful world of D&D but aren't sure where or how to start. My tables are safe, inclusive, and supportive. Mistakes are learning opportunities for all involved and ensure that no matter how quiet someone may be, their voice is always heard and their character brought to life. I design easy to manage session from character conception and creation, lore-friendly builds, and a chance to test your new character while learning the basics of gameplay, in a low-pressure environment. Whether you've never rolled a dice or just want to feel confident at the table, let's journey together into the rich world of dnd, as I guide you along a fun, immersive, and unforgettable experience.

What Zero brings to the table
Each situation is designed to teach players the basics of the game and their characters, expanding in complexity as we go. With voiced NPCs and ambient music, you'll be drawn into the rich world of Forgotten Realms while learning the core mechanics of the game.

How Zero creates a safe table
Using an RPG consent sheet, I will provide a safe and comfortable environment to play in. Session 1 will consist of character creation and very basic rules. My DM's are always open on Discord and will happy to answer any questions or deal with any issues. Players will be able to check in at the end or each session to see how they are feeling. Private Discord channels will be used to share images, documents and other information. Webcams are optional for players.
