About DM Josh - The Rpg Castle

I've played RPG's for over 30 yours and I've been creating homebrew worlds for almost as long. Why do I do it? I love stories! In my opinion, RPG’s are the best way to tell fantastic and heroic stories collectively because of their unique style of cooperative storytelling. That’s where the real fun is. I love facilitating dramatic and heroic acts of others as they play their chosen avatar in an imaginary world of our collective making. There’s no other fun collaborative way to tell a story quite like it and StartPlaying lets me make a living out something I love!

How DM Josh - The Rpg Castle runs games

I have a collaborative storytelling DM style and I use my improv and voice acting skills to bring an immersive storytelling style to the game. I highly encourage role-playing and players adding background story to their characters, but it is definitely not required to have fun. I try to keep to the rules as written, but I always let the Rule of Cool override everything. ...or if I think a rule doesn't work, I make a ruling on the fly, and we worry about correcting it later. Keeping the game flowing is more important than following the rules, and it's more fun!
