About me

Hello heroes. It is Sarzo. I have been playing and DMing Dungeons and Dragons...well for as long as is possible. I enjoy converting old school modules from D&D Basic and AD&D to 5th Edition. I like to create fun and challenging campaigns and one shots that require a balanced party and a mix of combat and role play. I enjoy a balanced style of play where we let the dice decide and winning is not necessarily a foregone conclusion, but with good game play (and a bit of luck) it is likely. I make my own maps and provide a rich and colorful gaming experience using FoundryVTT.

Sarzo is well prepared with intersting maps and puzzles in his game. He know what he is doing with Foundry and is patient with the learning curve. His is fair not always easy but always fair following the rules. If you are looking for a safe easy to surive game Sarzo may not be for you. If you love the trill of thr game where death is always a possibility. Every now and then you may even be worried you facing a TPK... but when you surive the fights because of your tatics and nice dice rolls. You it feels like the game should. He is good with beginners as well as advanced players... if you are looking for a game you can't go wrong with Sarzo

I had a good time and enjoyed how the encounter was structured. I also was able to be a bit creative at times which I always enjoy.

GM Sarzo hands down has the best Foundry VTT experience I have ever played in. The stunning visuals, ambient sounds, many bells and whistles are configured impressively. It plays like a video game but is not. I enjoy the pace of his games and challenges as it has an old school feel to it. His knowledge and experience is vast and allows for player chemistry to develop organically. Any suggestions are taken to account and implemented to suit the party's needs.

Sarzo’s game is challenging. He is prepared for the campaign. I always look forward to his next game! This is the DM you want for a serious good time.

Very knowledgeable and understanding GM. Willing to explain why he doesn't allow things, and willing to figure out issues to embrace the fun, and immersion.
