About me
I aim to create an immersive and engaging experience. I don't want this to be just a weekly "Kill 1 monster and mark off a task" adventure. I want the characters and NPC's to feel alive and for the players to feel that their actions have real impacts. If you enjoy bringing your character to life, then this is the game for you. My campaign will be and inclusive and friendly place. It should go without saying that there will be zero tolerance for racism, sexism, homophobia, and any kind of exclusion or harassment.
GM Style
I love to have an RP heavy game. I want to create a world where your interactions with the NPC's feel real and rewarding. I enjoy having a campaign where the NPC's have goals and try to reach them instead of ceasing to exist when the players aren't around. That's not to say that I don't equally love combat. Very few things are as exhilarating as a tense combat that tests the skills of the PC's. I love having tactics and welcome strategic plans from players. After all, just walking up to an enemy and standing there until they die, rinse, and repeat isn't very immersive.

Sets the Mood
Just finished a year and a half long campaign with Siku and was blown away by not only how well he was able to prep for sessions by having great visuals and quality music but also incorporating everyone's backstory into the main story so everyone gets a chance in the spot light. The party was able to be as creative as we wanted and Siku would always being able to adjust on the fly when high levels of shenanigans were occurring and the consequences of those shenanigans always felt balanced and fair whether they be good or bad which is a hard tight rope to walk when you want everyone to have a good time in a paid game, but Siku managed it flawlessly. After a bad first experience on start playing with a different DM, Siku completely won me back over to continue using the site to find awesome DMs and players to just have some fun after a long week and I couldn't recommend him enough. Oh also... is it Thursday yet?
From beginning to end, Siku's Curse of Strahd campaign balances high RP moments, challenging combat encounters, and player shenanigans. From the maps, the music, to the narration, Siku is excellent at creating an immersive world for the players. An absolute blast from the first session to the last!
I just finished playing The Curse of Strahd campaign and Siku did and awesome job with it. He Brings awesome maps, and the music was on point. Siku knows the material, and it was an amazing campaign form start to finish. I would defiantly play in another one of his campaigns or a oneshot.
Siku runs an amazing game and I've been having an absolute blast with the Curse of Strahd campaign I'm a part of. He does a great job of letting RP happen naturally and as such all the characters in the party have had opportunities to develop their characters and form bonds among themselves. His combat encounters feel meaningful and don't drag out. Roll20 and DnD Beyond are utilized really well creating an immersive and user friendly environment. Overall I think just about any player would be very happy and entertained in one of Siku's games!
