About me

​Mike (Elvenranger) here! ​I’ve been rolling dice and crafting stories for over 20 years. My philosophy at the table is simple: we are a team, and it's never me versus you. Whether you have a wild character concept, a crazy cinematic idea, or a clever loophole you want to pull off, my job as your GM is to help you make it happen. ​While I’ve run plenty of D&D 5e over the years, these days my heart lies firmly with Daggerheart and narrative-forward systems that put character choices front and center.

Character creation

Creating your character

At session zero, we're gonna be bringing everybody to the table to get everyone on the same page. We will go over creating a character and if you need to we can join a one on one so I can assist if you feel uncomfortable with others when creating a character. You will know each other since you all met during orientation and the adventure will start on the last day of it. We will be starting at tier 1 level 1. All characters ancestries are good and communities. If you want to use the void content we will discuss. Both core and hope and fear books are good. No third party stuff can be added unless discussed. If you don't want to created a character Alchemy will have pre-generated characters you can choose feom that will have a back story we can blend into the story.

The current party

As if right now all characters options are available.

What Michael Johnson brings to the table

Game settings: The is a homebrew world of Hyperion set in the country of Zuboni. Hyperion is a fantasy world with over 50 regions and interesting worldbuilding to explore. Learning experience: I will assist with player and character mechanics as needed as we play. Community: You are welcome to join the discord and be apart of a laid back server. I will upload lore for the world's of my games. GM style: I am a mostly how the rules are written but follow a little by rule of cool. I will provide maps and music to help bring the characters to an immersion experience and provide voices for the NPCs. Lastly I am building just a skeleton of the story the players story comes into play when it is either a one-shot or campaign. Session zero will be free

Homebrew rules

I usually do the optional rules for when you actually double severe, you'll actually do 4 hit points both going players and GM.
