About me
Heya, I'm Zed! Someone with a definitely real, not edited, fancy moustache ready to Dungeon some Dragons! I've started DM-ing since I was kid, and had been DM-ing since. Our game system? A crude homemade TTRPG cuz none of us knew about and had access to the big official ones. It was fun brewing worlds then, so much so that I've honed that habit today. For me, nothing beats a fun light-hearted roleplay with a dash of interesting gritty combat unfolding in a creative play of rules. My experience of hosting one-shots gave me insight on how to keep combat interesting and blood-pumping, not just a slugfest. Years of DM-ing as a kid and for kids had also shown me how to encourage roleplaying more on the table. Be it just flavoring actions, or maybe giving your character a voice, it's all gonna be fun. At the heart of it all, of course, is creativity. Anything your imagination can think of can be done. And it's always great to see everything unfold from one's mind unto the table. ๐FINAL WORDS Uhh, yea... That's me for starters, more on how I DM below. Of course just send me a message if you ever wanna discuss anything. Hope to play with you and make memorable moments together!
