About me

I like to think of myself as a somewhat veteran DM, I've been playing tabletop rpgs since 2002. I've mostly played Dungeons and Dragons in that time but I've had some experience branching out with other systems and games. I'm always excited to talk about ttrpgs and eager to try different things at the table.

GM Style

I enjoy the roleplay and story telling aspect of ttrpgs the most. However, I do like to think I'm quite tactically minded and am willing as a GM to rise up and challenge players if and when situations like combat occur. I personally enjoy playing in dungeon crawl adventures the most but I tend to prefer to DM more narrative driven games.

He knows the rules and is very collaborative with players to create a backstory relative to their obstacles and challenges. He also makes it an inclusive, open environment where boundaries are not crossed and well discussed beforehand. I highly recommend his games for anyone looking for a fun, safe environment.

I wish I could say more about how awesome his table has been. He has a system for players to let him know if they ever feel unsafe. He also makes it an inclusive, open environment where boundaries are not crossed and well discussed beforehand. The creativity in his world makes it fun, and his ability to go with the flow of the players’ chaos is awesome! He is also responsive and willing to work players ideas into his stories and make us feel like a real part of the lore. I highly recommend his games for anyone looking for a fun, safe environment. I would also say beginner friendly as well.

Very fun encounters that really stick with you and make you consider what to do even when you're busy at work. Works with you to make your experience enjoyable. Very good improvising skills when the party manages to make very unlikely decisions.

Knows the rules, is very collaborative with players to create a story relative to their obstacles and challenges. Great pace of game so things don't slow down or leave anyone out.

He's very dynamic with his stories and keeps things moving forward without making you feel rail roaded. I also really enjoyed his overall focus on more of the story element and keeping combat short but involving multiple different combat scenes

Great story telling. He gave the option to tell the story or your actions yourself or have him tell it. He accepted input and was very open to answering questions about game mechanics and lore.
