About Will D

Game designer and enjoyer! have been playing and making game for a while, successfully funding my first original TTRPG a couple years back. Love creating deep, complex, and mysterious plots featuring plenty of political intrigue. I like to give my players plenty of opportunities for character-expression in-game and foster interesting group dynamics. There's no better feeling to me than when players get lost in a world! I have GM'd many, many games including live comedy shows to an audience, and longform on a podcast. Talk to me if you're into the idea of crafting a fun, intriguing, and cathartic story together!

Featured Prompts

I became a GM because

I love how TTRPGs create completely unique, bespoke narrative experiences. As a GM, I am able to take part in a performance and story that no one else in the world - besides my players - will ever experience. As a creative person, I've come to find that feeling incredibly reward

How Will D runs games

I enjoy creating rich, complex worlds that feature multiple factions with goals that butt up against each other. Players in my game will feel like part of a larger world - though a very important part, all the same. I playing NPCs with big personalities, ideologies, arcs, and ironic demises.

Will D's ideal table

My ideal table consists of players who come to be on the same wavelength. Nothing is more satisfying than when a player recognises the tone or intention of an emotional/narrative beat and joins in. I lvoe when players build off each other to create a story, "yes and" one another, and know when to step in to make a scene more interesting and when to hold a moment to allow another player their time to shine.
