About Epic Corey

I'm the permanent DM/GM by choice...There I said it and I am damn proud of it too! I've been playing TTRPGs since I was 15, I've been running them since I was 20, Im now Old as a stubborn dwarf...ok I'm in my late 30s but still I've got about 3867hrs in game time...at least, and Talo's knows how many hours prepping. I'm a modern day Bard. I like to tell stories.I put in more "work" into DMing than my real job which lead to me quitting my job to do this! whether it is honing my voice acting, to dungeon building, to trying to master dramatic scenes and improv, or just coming up with awesome hooks and adventures for people to get up to. GMing is my creative output.

I became a GM because

I dabbled being the GM when i was a teen but i really became a full time Perma GM to stay close to my friends from high-school

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Chaotic, Fun.....and probably Evil. I've been known to occasionally collect dead characters like Poke'mon Cards

How Epic Corey runs games

I love to bring an ever evolving world to life with the players and watch them burn my creations to the ground lol. I bring a relaxing, fun, and exciting atmosphere with all the bells and whistles. I know the rules of the games I run. But I use them as a guideline more than enforce them, The story take priority over RAW. and your fun takes priority over the story. I'm also a bit of a chaos gremlin. No matter what YOU decide to do in my games I have enough Improv skill to run with it so, No you will never be Railroaded. By playing with me you can expect: a story, Maps, Music, sound effects, slightly off voice acting. videos and The lasting satisfaction of watching your characters grow in strength & glory while developing an amazing story that you can tell to people during work parties, family gatherings, or even during an awkward first date! I tailor the game to the players and try to accommodate everyone at the table. My themes & settings I tend to use are wide ranging. Fantasy, Horror, Sci-fi, Superhero you name it I can try to run it. Cyberpunk is my Specialty as well as anything covered in grit.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

Quinten Tarintino, over the top story telling, dark secrets and violence! all while keeping you on the edge of your seats

My games focus on...

The players first and foremost, depending on the setting it can be whimsical, to heavy grit. I do alot of RP, and I like combat. I will take the players where ever they want to go.

Epic Corey's ideal table

with a history in Managment I can usually get along with all types of personality, the Vibe in my groups are very chill, with the importance of your fun always being at the forefront of every session. I try to keep the table light and fun for everyone

Featured Prompts

I am for a vibe that's...

Fun and relaxing. All while going at 100 mph I'm aware most of my players have stressful days, and this is their getaway. I provide a place to unwind and release the daily stress.

I love it when a player

Falls in deep into their character exploring the parts below the surface. the things that really make them tick

I think it's a red flag when players...

Chime in on what other players want to do and thwart their attempts at fun, Player Autonomy is huge at my table. I don't allow for it unless a player asks. this is a collaborative story and is played as such.
