About me
Merry meet! I am a detail oriented English and Journalism graduate student with focus in mythology and early romanticisim which has aided in my story crafting. I have played extensively, and am returning to the role of DM locally with a group of 9 other friends in a homebrew world of Eldreth that I have been building. (and would have great joy to explore elsewhere). I started playing with friends in 3rd and 3.5 edition Dungeons and Dragons in the point buy skill system. I have crafted campaigns in 4th and 5th editions as well as played in every edition published. I have played in other systems/expansions, such as: Forgotten Realms, Werewolf/Vampire, Star Wars, Pathfinder, Mutants and Masterminds and countless homebrews. I used to have "break this class" competitions with another DM friend where we would create multi-class and cross-class characters we considered unkillable and then fight them against each other. Which has given me a great understanding of craftinc challenging, but not overpowered villains. I truly love D&D and TTRPGs. Creating my new campaign has rekindled that burning passion that laid dormant for so many years. I believe myself more than capable of being an excellent professional DM.

How Todd creates a safe table
I add a combination of Lines and Veils with X,N,O cards. Before the session, inform me before the first meeting if a warning is a Line (Uncrossable limit) or a veil (soft limit) and I can adjust accordingly. Also while in game, if a subject matter is approaching a line, players may let me know with X emojis in chat.
