About me

I've been a story teller for as long as I can remember. D&D has always been an interest to me, but as a POC it wasn't readily available amongst my peers. I believe that shouldn't have stopped me from pursuing a potential passion and so I became a DM and started running games for my friends. D&D is about escapism, creativity and freedom of choice those are the aspects I want to cultivate. After watching other games from the likes of the Daniel Rustage, Dungeon Dudes, Brennan Lee Mulligan and Critical Role as well as running a custom campaign and quite a bit of one shots, I feel I provide a unique experience of play. In my sessions you don't have to be a voice actor or a mid maxing strategist, just be you and have fun. My goal is to introduce as many people to Dungeons and Dragons as possible and create an environment where we all can grow together in this community as lovers of the game.

GM Style

I personally love the role play aspect of D&D, but voice acting is not something I will force my players into. Just try your best to think about how your character would react in any given situation. I like to create worlds and tell stories where the characters created had lives before our session and therefore have experiences, fears, and aspirations. That doesn't negate, but incentivizes more intense and weighted combat. I like to give my players an open world feel for them to explore, following as many story beats as they see fit. In my sessions the written rules are an important guideline for our play but the rule of cool can adjust those lines ;). Overall my playstyle is a promotion of a good time.

When we first started our campaign, most of the NPCs sounded similar and us players gave him some feedback about it and ever since that session, new character sounds and feels different. The GM’s NPC’s are one of the strongest attributes of his games.

Always has a lot of threads going and makes you feel like the world is moving and changing beyond your characters' experiences. Good at adapting to unconventional player choices as well. Overall a great well-planned experience!

Well I'm new to playing DnD I've always wanted to play and the GMs campaign was the perfect place to start. This being mainly due to the fact that I felt like I wasn't going to be judge and was allowed to make mistakes for lack of knowledge. Very cool voices to characters GM takes alot of time and thought to voices and it's actually pretty entertaining to hear him act characters out. All and all I would say if your a new player looking for a home then this GM is the place for you or if your a Veteran player looking for a place to be challenged this is also the place for you. 100% recommend this GM and if you don't believe me give one of his campaigns a try!

Being basically brand new to actually playing TTRPG, I was able to get into the game they had set up and welcomed in! The world they had set up already was rich in lore and characters to interact with, as well as being able to RP on the fly. Absolutely would recommend.

Constantly allows for player creativity within reason. You don't have to be afraid of discussing ideas with him.
