Stonetop: Kith and Kin | A PBTA Style Fantasy TTRPG About Living

Welcome to a world of endless adventure. I, your Dungeon Master, invite you to journey to lands of gods and monsters, rebels and powerful factions, intrigue and mystery. Who will you choose to be? Whether you are a seasoned veteran or new to the game, I will work with you to create a personalized and unforgettable gaming experience. As an experienced and passionate adventure designer, I will keep you on the edge of your seat. My proficiency with the D&D 5e ruleset allows me to adapt the system to immersive worlds with unique encounters and creative challenges. With my flexibility and improvisation skills, player choice will ripple throughout the narrative and help me create an adventure highly tailored to your individual preferences and playstyle. Join me now, and we will embark on a journey of discovery, danger, and glory! What to Expect: -Combat: Encounters where the main objective isn’t always just “defeat the enemy.” -Character Voices: Memorable NPC characterizations, just like video games! -Player Character Advocacy: I love all my PCs equally. I'm not a “gotcha” DM. (Note, that doesn't mean that you have plot armor, but if your character dies I strive to make it fair and narratively satisfying.) -Equal Spotlight. TTRPGs are an ensemble! The PCs are all equally important to the story. Some sessions may focus a little more on an individual, but you will all get time to shine. -Rule of Cool: The rules exist to serve the story. If they disrupt the narrative we are building, I'll adapt them to serve the story we are telling. -Collaboration: While the DM may do the heavy lifting to present a robust world to play in, we are collectively telling a story and I will respect your character and their agency. -Safe Space: It is of utmost importance to me that we all feel safe when we play. You should feel comfortable coming to me with problems. I promise an open mind and mediation when necessary. GM Stat Block: Proficiency in Performance: I have a degree in acting and am a trained improviser. Tool Proficiency - Gaming Sets: I come packed with decades of video and board game experience to draw inspiration from. Arcane Tradition - Illusion: I spend full work weeks writing adventures, working on characters, studying rules and lore, and tailoring encounters to dazzle the senses. I would love to do that for you!
