About NidhCthon

I'm best described as a DM who thrives on creative, collaborative, group storytelling with ample room for players to explore their ideas cohesively (not side quests packaged into the main storyline). A successful session is one where we all had a good time, felt comfortable, and had a few "Woah!" moments. I love when we all become creative partners collaborating on a project (our game), with the players directing their characters and parties' fates. At the same time, I control outcomes and ensure the storyline and themes of the game stay intact. I've been DM'ing (DnD) and Storytelling (Storypath, World/Chronicles of Darkness/Exalted) for 20 years. I'm well-versed in impromptu scenarios and lean heavily into 'theatre-of-the-mind' (and artwork) as I do explorable and professional combat maps. I'm 60% narratively driven, with strength in realism and/or horror, 20% combat driven, 20% exploration and puzzle driven when it comes to DnD. A Chronicles/World of Darkness game that I tend to run feels more like 80/20 with an even heavier narrative and roleplay focus. In short, I love stories and complex motivations! I run games as a hobby to meet new people and expand my player group, and I mostly have a charge to seek committed players who vibe with my game style. My prices will always stay reasonable--the number of games I run is small. If we have a good time, I'm likely to invite you to play with my friend group for future free games, as I use this site to expand my closed private games as much as anything (just friends, no charge to play). I love writing, roleplaying, improv, fantasy, & horror! I intend to leave everyone with a wonderful, unique experience. I run homebrew or HEAVILY modified source material games, adapted around, and cater exclusively for a party of players with character ideas that vibe with the themes and tone of the story. Send me a message if you want to chat! I'm always open to questions and feedback.
