Hey, I’m Roxas! I’m a Game Master with over a decade of experience bringing worlds to life across games like Dungeons & Dragons and Vampire: The Masquerade. Whether it's a crumbling gothic city or a realm on the brink of divine collapse, I specialize in crafting deep, immersive narratives where players don’t just witness the story, they’re woven into it. I hold an associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degree, but it was storytelling that claimed me in the end. I've spent years honing my craft, including training in voice acting, so that every NPC, villain, or tragic ...

Hey there! Name is Liz and I've been DMing for a better part of nine years now. It's always interesting seeing how the collaborative storytelling brings us all through unexpected twists and turns. I would love to help craft your future adventures!

If I were a Character, I'd say.... Race: Human, Latin American (but I'd rather be an Elf). Background: University professor. Class: Game Master. Sub-class: Dungeon Master (D&D since 1st ed... Currently 5e). I like to DM as much I like to play. And I like creating homebrew rules and worlds as much as I like knowing Rules-as-written (RAW) and official adventures. So I'd say I'm Lawful Good. I go by the rules, but my Good alignment urges me to use Rule-of-Cool if that improves gameplay and player engagement. As a DM, I will work to embed players in the storyline, weaving ...

Hello there! I'm Miguel. I discovered Dungeons & Dragons 5 years ago and immediately fell in love with it and have invested a big chunk of my time playing, DMing, and consuming content about it. I'm very inspired by Matt Mercer's Critical Role, Brennan Lee Mulligan's Dimension 20, and Matt Colville's Running the Game. I've worked as a teacher for five years and another ten in the entertainment industry and find that the skills I gathered (and am still gathering) translate very well into the role of Dungeon Master. I spend a great deal of my time improving on sound ef...

Yearning for adventure and immersive storytelling? Then I'm your GM! 8"2, 123-year-old, educated greenskin with a strong British accent. Best Ork GM on the internet, 8 years running! I have a background in theatre and wargames, so expect lots of over the top roleplay and lots of intense combat! I LOVE running games, and I've been teaching people how to play TTRPG's for close to a decade, as I believe a good first experience is crucial to hook people into the space, so I place enormous emphasis on open communication and having a good time above all else. Of course,...

I’m a full-time GM with a tech brain and a storyteller’s instinct. I run clean, well-prepped games with a healthy dose of improvisation and just enough chaos to keep players guessing. I love throwing players into situations they’ll definitely survive (probably). Also: unapologetically committed to terrible accents, delivered with great enthusiasm.

Hey y'all, I'm Penny your Southern gothic, trans femme DM! She/her 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ I'm an Eberron enthusiast who has been running tabletop adventures, creating new worlds, and telling stories for parties of all sizes for the last two decades. I prioritize community and party cooperation in my campaigns - no one person may save the world (or destroy it) on their own. Bringing unique, individual character stories together, melding those with memorable NPC companions, and creating dynamic challenges both in and out of initiative is all part of my recipe to deliver a campai...

Hello to all you wonderful players and fellow GMs! My name is Cosmo The GM and I’ve been running and playing games of D&D since 2019, and I’ve loved playing roleplay video games ever since I first played the first 'Legend of Zelda' game on the NES way back in the early 90s. Since then, I've gone on to fall in love with and play many RPGs, from many of the Final Fantasy games, to Skyrim and the Witcher 3, to the modern masterpiece of Baldur's Gate 3. When I first played D&D, it sparked a passion in me that has brought me so much joy. The ability to be able to tell co...

Hey everyone. I generally enjoy DM'ing sessions that are set in a world that feels lived in, encouraging layers to explore freely. My style is to always try to make the world feel alive so that when you make choices other things are still happening in the background, because that's how life works. I have played and DM'd an even amount, so I try to run games that I would want to be apart of. I enjoy a solid balance of RP and combat. Good plot points throughout the world make for a variety of fun, challenging, and impactful experiences, in my opinion, so that's what I ...

Forever DM for almost 6 years. Prefers rules as written but will always go with the Rule of Cool first! Uses Foundry VTT and Roll20. I try not to let sessions run more 3-4 hours, personally experience is people check out around then lol.

Hello! My name is Joey. I've been playing D&D for 27 years and a DM for friends and family over a variety of fantasy settings since 2003. I've recently picked up Daggerheart and I'm loving it.

A few years ago, my friends and I were talking at one of our Magic the Gathering meets about potentially playing in a DnD Campaign over the summer. Fast forward two years, 20 levels, hundreds of battles, one epic quest and many many emotions later, I found myself and my fellow adventurers forever changed by our Journey. When I sat down at that table for the first time, I had no idea what I was in store for. But stood there, in a city our characters had saved time and again, in a world we knew only existed because of our heroics, I understood the power of DnD. Hi! My ...

Hello adventurers, my name's Ted and it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance! I've been a Dungeon Master for D&D 5E for the past 5 years. I started my professional full-time DM career on November of 2021 and I've been having a blast! I am Greek born and raised, which gives me the edge when I talk for the NPCs, they all have a natural Eastern European accent! Joking aside, I love D&D and I enjoy playing every single session. I am very passionate about the game and all my players have had a great time. I DM for most of the official modules from Wizards of the Coast...

Stay awhile and listen! I go by Trevor or Shevek (any/all). Truth be told, I came to tabletop through Warhammer40k over 20 years ago and stumbled into DND along the way. To get an idea of my style and stories I enjoy being a part of: The Adventure Zone, Dungeons of Drakkenheim, NADDPOD, Dimension20, Worlds Beyond Number, and Gray Hill Free Company. There's few experiences that surpass the opportunity to share a table with folks creating a story together. Whether it's getting folks comfortable with the basics, extensive roleplay + personal arcs, or tactically chal...

First and foremost, I am a writer, reader, and storyteller by trade and at heart. I am a seasoned GM who has been playing since middle school in 1998 with D&D 3e. I have been DMing since 2000 and have been DMing D&D 5e specifically since 2018. I have a penchant for new players as I am a fair and reasonable DM. I'm patient and willing to teach and allow others to learn to play in all aspects, whether it's the dynamics of combat or growth with roleplaying. Come meet some of my current and past players on my Discord Server. Message me for the link. I have been building m...

Hi, I'm Devin I'm 25, currently and forever will be in love with D&D, I started my passion for D&D with a group of friends that threw me to the wolves to have me learn how to run the game, little did I know I would fall in love with it, making maps, stories and memories with friends really has made me have a passion for being a DM, my aim is to help each player tell the story they want to with their characters, from a rogue who lost their parents to a druid who wishes to reclaim corrupted land. I currently am aiming to run start playing for a living if possible, const...

Like many here, I’ve been immersed in the world of TTRPGs for nearly over a decade. While I love the role of Keeper, Storyteller, or MC, I’m just as comfortable donning the DM hat—especially if you don’t mind a few silly accents and my particular brand of high-pitched voices for male NPCs! When I run games online, I prefer a camera-free setup. I find this helps everyone ease into character without feeling self-conscious. I aim to create an inclusive and welcoming space, where every player can shine, from creative roleplayers to tactical combat enthusiasts. I enjoy cra...

Partially covered by the dust of time, you find the blanched bones of a human adventurer long dead. Every inch of bone is covered with tiny bite marks or burrowed holes. Some of the bones have been broken by the crushing teeth of a much larger creature. The slightest touch on a pouch at his side causes it to disintegrate into dust and string, revealing its contents. Coin… You smile at the sound of it hitting the ground. A backpack in similar condition reveals a map case with a map inside. You hold the case gently trying not to disturb the contents too much. The thoug...

Hello! My name is Leland Vaughan although I usually go by Candlemoth online. I love the medium of RPGs and I'm excited to use this platform to play lots of different game systems that I haven't tried yet and am dying to jump into. I've been DMing and playing for somewhere around 12 years and when I started I never thought I'd be able to get paid to do what I love like this. I read constantly and I'm very interested in what Kurt Vonnegut called 'The Shape of Stories". In that vain, I'm always looking to bring a unique and personalized experience to even pre-made advent...

Hi! I'm Ellis. I've been playing D&D 5th Edition since 2016 as both a player and a DM. I've spent the last few years running play-by-post and voice games over Discord and now I want to share that experience with you. My wife (https://startplaying.games/gm/meganhardy) and I offer a welcoming community where we run player-friendly, inclusive games for all players of any experience level, The RPG Den and Menagerie: https://discord.gg/meganandthemonkey These games are all available to run either as voice games or regularly scheduled text-based/PbP games for those who can...

Role Playing Games were my sanity's refuge when my undiagnosed neurodiversity turned my academic endeavors into a living hell. The stories we weaved, and the love of the friends we wove them with, kept everyone going, and with each other, we were no longer alone. As time would have it, and in spite of our academic or social struggles, we ended up being an exceptional group professionals in our chosen fields, and as we sought to make our childrens' journey easier, most of my friends discovered their own neurodiversity. I want the opportunity to help your characters ...

⚾ full-time jock, full-time nerd ♟️ My name's MJ (she/her), and I'm everything your parents warned you about: a horror writer, a punk rock guitarist, a Philadelphia sports superfan, and a Dungeon Master! My RPG journey started with diceless, GMless play-by-post forums, an environment that passed on the ethos of "playing to find out." Without one person to guide the story forward, we built the world, the plot, and the relationships between characters together. Although I take on a more traditional GM role now, that background shaped my approach to running tables, and ...

Hail Noble Heroes! I am a humble Game Master from Central Canada who's been rolling dice for twenty years and running games for nearly as long. Though most of the games I'm currently running use the 5e Dungeons and Dragons system, I am well versed in 3.5e, Pathfinder, D20 Modern/Future/Past, Starfinder, Lancer, Wild Talents and the One Roll Engine. I am experienced in hosting games for beginners and veterans alike, young children and those on the autism spectrum. My table is LGTBQ+ friendly and a safe space for all. If the games I'm currently running don't suit your...

30+ years of running various TTRPGs. I am trans/non-binary and autistic and run games that are both LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent friendly. My day job is teaching and I love teaching new players to enjoy roleplaying!

Welcome to my gaming profile! I'm Berrey Matlock, and I'm thrilled to be hosting games here on StartPlaying.games. With over 27 years of experience in dungeon mastering and storytelling, I've traversed countless realms of imagination, from the perilous dungeons of Dungeons & Dragons to the shadowed streets of Vampire: The Masquerade.

What drives me to host games is the sheer joy...

"Grab a hot drink, a seat around the fire, and listen to my cowboy song." "Comfortable? Good! Now, before we get started, I want you all to know that I tell my tales for your enjoyment and pleasure... so please respect each other and don't enter this area if you desire to cause another harm. If someone's pain is your objective or entertains you... You won't make it past the opening credits of our story." [About me: Having been in (often teaching) the Arts for over 25 years, I really enjoy teaching, and I understand how and love to foster creativity in players!]...

Hello there! My name is Vincent, and the two little gargoyles behind me are Bobby and Smaug, my warlock familiars. I started playing Dungeons & Dragons in university with my featherless friends and it quickly became our favorite hobby, so much so that I've been running official and homebrew campaigns for us ever since. And because I'm always eager to play and meet new characters and experience new stories, I would be thrilled to GM for You, intrepid adventurer!🧝🏽🏹 I even wrote my master's thesis about the positive impact TTRPGs have on social and creative skills a...
