About me
Let's tell some amazing stories together! My name is Daisy (she/her) and I'm a professional GM and writer. I have been running D&D and TTRPG campaigns for over 20 years and have been professionally GMing for over 3. I love handing over the reins of the story to my players and discovering together where the narrative goes. I always encourage my players to take agency make bold choices, and to be creative with their decisions and abilities! My tables are open to players of any experience level, and I'm always happy to teach new players. I am offering a variety of games at different timeslots, and while I only speak English, non-native English speakers are always welcome! Each of my games starts with an in-depth Session 0 to ensure player safety and cover table expectations. My games are custom-tailored to the characters my players come up with, incorporating unique NPCs, Locations, and Story Hooks, and never include generative AI. If you are interested in a One-Shot or a campaign not listed, please feel free to reach out and we can discuss some options!

For this on-going campaign, there will be an Initial Session 0 before the first session of actual game-play. Players will be asked to complete a consent form prior to that Session 0, which we will go over together. We will establish X, N, and O cards as well during this time. Breaks will be had throughout sessions, and players are encouraged to debrief for a short while after the session has concluded.
