🕯️ Who I Am – And Why It Echoes With over three decades of immersive storytelling, world-building, and narrative alchemy, I bring a cinematic, consequence-driven approach to every game I run. My journey began in the 1980s with 1st Edition Dungeons & Dragons, but it didn't stop at the dungeon door. It led me through haunted cathedrals, blood-soaked courts, and dream-scarred realities—into the depths of myth, horror, and political intrigue. As a veteran LARP coordinator and narrative architect, I’ve designed large-scale interactive experiences—most notably a World of D...

I tripped and fell over GMing when I ran a "3-month" 7th Sea campaign at the end of college that is still going today, 16 years later. I've run several other campaigns and a whole ton of convention one-shots, including games at the convention I helped run for a number of years. I'm a professional GM because gaming is the most fun thing I can imagine doing for money! and because I want to share my skills with more people. Collaborative storytelling is a powerful way to enjoy life and transform ourselves, and I think everyone should do it. One of my favorite things i...

Hello everyone! It's Shatargat! I'm a gamemaster with Turkish nationality, who runs his games in English since mid 2022. I'm a game designer and scenario author, and I mostly use these skills on my games. My main genre in everything is horror. I really like horror, occultism, supernatural stuff, mystery and other dark themes as well. I personally prefer heavy and extreme touches on the games, but I know that I can meet people on the common ground, and bring fun into these dark games. I'm also a content creator in my native language. And companies like Chaosium Inc.,...

Welcome! I've been running games for over 40 years, and I've published material in the game industry before. If you decide to play with me, you'll discover a fun-forward game without having to drop the fun in favor of encumbrance. I tend to lean towards rule-of-cool DMing rather than strict adherence to the published material, but I don't tend to use homebrew in my games. I will provide you with an experience that puts your character up front, with tie-ins to backstories and developing moments in the story that involve you directly. If you're looking for old-school sty...

<-- Runs custom Birthday One Shots Gamer, Dad, Forever DM, getting good at voices (according to my very generous players), love storytelling, and the tactical elements of the game! I love everything from serious and dark, to goofy munchkin nonsense! Oh, and there will probably be a higher than usual focus on food in my games. I'm a chef and can't help it. My goal is to deliver an experience you're happy to be a part of, let me know how I can make that happen. Rule #1 Be Kind - we're all here to have fun, playing a game, and telling stories together.

Hey all! I am a school social worker by trade, and I run D&D 5E for the kids in the framework of group therapy and social skills development. However, my preference really lies in more old-school, crunchy games such as 1st Ed. 7th Sea, Torg, and D&D 3.5. I am a firm believer that elaborate rules don't necessarily have to interrupt a good story, as long as the GM is good at navigating them. If you are interested in any of these systems, please reach out: as I get my feet wet, my rates will be very competitive. I have been playing D&D and other RPG's since the age o...

Hail and Well Met! I am Overlord Jim (It's an old internet handle I happen to like, just go with it) and I have been running and playing TTRPGs for over 20 years now. I have always wanted to try my hand at Professional Game Mastery, and the age of Covid-19 is as good a time as any to get into it. My nerd credentials start with climbing every castle tower within driving distance of our home in Great Britain when I lived there as a child. My love of that era has lead me to become a serious medievalist scholar with a particular emphasis on the Early Medieval Era (bett...

Hi! I'm Tristan (he/they). I podcast, I read books, I have chronic migraines, and I crochet more blankets than can be used by any one person in a hot climate. Oh, and I play/run ttrpgs. Like a lot of people, I started out in college with Dungeons and Dragons. I was especially captivated by the role-playing aspects and party dynamics. Circumstances conspired against me, and I didn't get to play any ttrpgs again until about 2017. I've been playing steadily ever since, and within the last couple of years I've gotten really brave and started running a few different games...

I've been GMing for 20 years in a multitude of different systems, including multiple editions of D&D, Fate, Pathfinder 2e, FFG Star Wars, World of Darkness and many more. I am especially fond of one-shots and pretty much open to doing every system at least once, although I also enjoy long-form slow-burn campaigns. I fall more on the storyteller side of things, although tactical combat and deep strategy are also things I enjoy, and I like to tailor every system to the group I'm playing with. I speak English, Spanish and Catalan, all at a native level of fluency. I w...

Hello, I am Matthew Pauze, and I have been a passionate Game Master since 1993. Throughout my years in the tabletop RPG and LARP communities, I have had the opportunity to run and participate in various systems. Currently, I reside in Canada with my family and partner. In 2019, with the rise of Covid-19, I shifted my focus to online platforms such as Discord and Roll20. I aim to introduce and highlight some of the lesser-known gems in the TTRPG community rather than just relying on popular systems like Dungeons and Dragons.

I have a lot of experience with this hobby, specifically as a GM, since I've been running games about as long as I've been invested in the hobby. I've also been consistently at it long enough to see the shift from one edition to another more then once. I'm as comfortable inside corporate towers in a cyberpunk setting as I am in the dark dungeons of a fantasy one. The deepness of space is familiar to me regardless if viewed from a ships window or through an eldritch portal. If you have a game idea, reach out to me, and I'll see what I can do to work with you to tell an ...

Rules-lite RPGs are my passion. Collaborating with players to create background and backstory is what I enjoy most. Creating a great character-driven narrative that we will tell for years is my goal. My preference is for RPG systems that support the story and also allow for players to have the option to succeed at a cost, driving the story to a climactic finish where all those checks must be paid. RPGs work best when it's like a jazz ensemble, where the whole group plays together most of the time but everyone gets a chance to step forward for their solo from time ...

I primarily run Pokemon Tabletop United and D&D5e. I have run a variety of game systems in the past, but have settled on these two as my primary systems.

Hey you! I'm Neo! I'm a Forever DM that loves to tell an amazing story that has adventure and diversity at the forefront! I started hosting games during the pandemic because I wanted to tell a story to my friends while we were cuddled up in our homes. Since then I have led actual plays and become a homebrew designer and world builder. I also wrote the Nightskins Race for Dungeons and Dragons 5e I hope you'll come play with me!

I like to run original Adventures with an emphasis on interaction. I consider myself part of the 1990s generation of role-playing games. I've been running camps since 1998 and gravitate toward modern and near-future settings.

Hi, my name is Jordan. I am looking to GM such games as, Legend of the five rings, 7th sea, and the Dresden Files. My play style can be text or voice. I'm not into miniatures on a map tactic style combat. I'm paid by the session for now. I'm going to figure out the best way for me to be paid but I still want to be cheap. My big play style is one on one text base on discord. Both vanillia and errotic
