About me
Want a DM who can elevate your D&D game to amazing new heights? You've found them. I'm Casey, your professional DM. I'm the DM other DMs like to play with. As a gifted voice actor with years of experience, I inject life & character into my NPCs. That's just the start. As a TV & Film writer, I know how to draw your PC into the narrative, their backstory, wants & goals, for a 100% tailor-made playing experience. I also bring immersive music, sensory-filled narration, and a creative mind trained for improv. If you want deep character RP or wacky adventures, my games are full of chances to role-play, solve mysteries, and face monsters in inventive ways. At our table, rulebooks come second to Good Storytelling. Exploration & RP outweigh combat, but it plays a fun part! Come for a *spooky* good time, I love scaring PCs with frights tailored around their Lines & Veils. (You're always, *always* going to be safe at my table.) My inclusive, easy-going style guarantees an incredible experience for players of all kinds. I look forward to telling amazing stories with you!

View Profile →Character creation
Creating your character
Players are welcome to collaborate with Casey and build new PCs using one of the 13 new species, 15 horror-themed subclasses, or something from more traditional D&D. PCs begin at level 1, and will be prepared by the start of our session zero.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Players should know the 5th edition standard D&D rules, have their PC approved before session 00, and have a free membership on Roll20 where we will be running the game. Discord chat is also available. A home set-up that includes a microphone & camera is encouraged but not mandatory. We'll be using milestone achievements to level up, in a new campaign filled with special surprises!
What Casey brings to the table
I'll bring maps, music, & over a decade's experience providing a gripping narrative that chills the blood. Roll20 will provide the dice rolls. I'll also provide artwork, visual aids, and a vast range of character voices for a 'full cast' of NPCs.
Homebrew rules
PCs can drink a potion as an action and get the full benefit of the potion, or use an object interaction and roll for it. Friendly fire is possible with ranged attacks, so aim carefully! Crits and Fumbles bring special consequences for added excitement.

How Casey creates a safe table
Lines & Veils sheets are shared with the players to fill out in advance of Session 00. Players can prepare non-human characters with the knowledge that it may impact how they're perceived by xenophobic Barovians. The DM will also check in with players post-game to ensure personal boundaries / comfort zones are never crossed. Just because it's a horror game doesn't mean the *player* should feel unsafe. Our table is LGBTQ-friendly & inclusive.
