About me
I’m a USAF Veteran who found a second home in tabletop games. During my tour in Germany, I was voluntold by my work mates to Dungeon Master because they all wanted to learn D&D, but not willing to Dungeon Master themselves. Little to say, I had no Idea what I was getting into....But I fell in love with the craft. As the social group started relocating around the world, I converted my skills to the world of the internet and dedicated myself to mastering the art of VTT. I always had a love for retro video games, but D&D expanded that passion. I found myself pouring into the craft and philosophy behind the classic models of 1st edition. I wanted to experience the adventures that set the standard and shaped D&D what is today, and more importantly, I weanted my players to experience it a well. Now, I bring those legendary stories back from the dead, to keep the legacy alive for modern audiences to experience!

What Vanny brings to the table
I use my favorite VTT, Foundry for my games. I pride myself in crafting scenes using high-quality maps, animated effects, soundeffects and music created by talented artists in the TTRPG community. Since old school D&D is up my alley, my DM style, leans more on the comabat heavy and dungeon exploration playstyle. However, many classic modules leave key NPC personalities to interpretation. I enjoy using that creative space to bring those NPCS to life through some lite-rolpay to bring the adventure to life without slowing down the pace of the game.

How Vanny creates a safe table
Player comfort and safety are a top priority at my table. During the game, players can message me privately at any time to express any concerns. Additionally, using X, N, & O signals by chat, voice, or even holding something up on camera to instantly communicate discomfort is always welcomed. No explanation is ever required in the moment.
