About me

Heyaa! I’m Cosmic, a Dungeon Master from Ireland with 5 years of experience playing D&D and 3 years of experience behind the DM screen. I love creating campaigns where players feel like they’re part of a living world rather than simply following a predetermined story. My goal is to give every player the freedom to make meaningful choices, while making sure those choices have consequences and the world reacts around them. 🎲 What I Offer: - 3+ years of DMing experience - 5 years of D&D experience - Homebrew worlds, adventures, and custom built monsters for encounters - Character-driven storytelling - Engaging combat and tactical encounters - Exploration, roleplay, and worldbuilding - A welcoming environment for both new and experienced players - Flexible storytelling that adapts to the choices of the party - 🌌 A Table for Everyone My tables are LGBTQIA+ friendly, inclusive, and welcoming to players from all backgrounds. I strive to create a respectful environment where everyone can feel comfortable being themselves and enjoying the game. — Cosmic 🌌

Character creation

Creating your character

We’ll begin with a Session 0 where everyone can sit down together, discuss character concepts, share ideas, and make sure everyone’s characters fit naturally into the setting. You’ll start at Level 1 and progress throughout the campaign, with the potential to reach Level 15 or beyond. I’ll help with character creation, abilities, backstories, and fitting your character into the dungeon.

What to expect

Preparing for the session

Before the campaign begins, please have the following ready: - 💬 Discord Account — Join the campaign’s Discord server for communication, announcements, and session scheduling. - 🐻 Owlbear or Roll20 Account — We’ll use one of these for maps, combat, and virtual tabletop gameplay. - 📖 D&D Beyond Account — Character sheets will be created and managed through D&D Beyond inside the campaign link. That’s it! I’ll help you get everything set up during Session 0 and make sure everyone is ready before we begin the campaign!!

What COSMO 🌌 brings to the table

I’m a Rule of Cool DM who values creativity, freedom, and memorable moments. If you have a wild idea that makes sense for your character, I’ll work with you to see how we can make it happen. Expect a heavy roleplay, character-driven storytelling, immersive encounters, and ambient music to help bring each scene to life. I hold my games to a high standard and put genuine effort into the worlds, NPCs, encounters, and stories I create with several hours per week working and putting time into them. No generative AI is used in my campaign and will not be allowed for players either.

Homebrew rules

I use a selection of common homebrew rules inside my campaigns including the following: - 🧪 Bonus Action Potions — Drink a potion as a Bonus Action. - 🎲 Natural 1s & 20s — Nat 1s and Nat 20s can have additional effects depending on the situation. - ⚔️ Flanking — Positioning matters, and surrounding an enemy can provide an advantage. - ✨ Rule of Cool — Creative ideas and cinematic moments can sometimes bend the rules when it makes sense. We’ll go over all the house rules in more detail during Session 0, so everyone knows what to expect before we begin.

Safety

How COSMO 🌌 creates a safe table

Player comfort and consent are a priority at my table. Every player is required to complete a Consent Sheet before the campaign begins, outlining their Lines & Veils and any content they are comfortable or uncomfortable with. During the campaign, players can always speak up if something becomes uncomfortable. We can pause or stop the session at any time to address concerns, and players are welcome to speak with me privately during or after a session. My goal is to maintain that of a respectful, welcoming, and responsive table where everyone feels safe and having fun participating in the campaign.
