About Ben Jammin

I am passionate about crafting stories, especially when they are lived and told firsthand by the heroes themselves—by YOU. Every great narrative revolves around heroes and the actions that define them. As your Game Master, I am here to help you tell your story and discover who your hero truly is. I specialize in running pre-written campaigns, leveraging their rich group dynamics to create unforgettable experiences. While many have embarked on the Lost Mine of Phandelver, none have lived through the unique tales we create at our table. With extensive experience running numerous campaigns from start to finish and thousands of hours dedicated to one-shots and connected short story arcs, I continually strive to enhance the storytelling experience for my players. Dynamic Adventures: From complete campaigns to short, connected arcs, each session is designed to push the boundaries of storytelling and provide a memorable experience. Collaborative Storytelling: I believe in the power of group dynamics, ensuring that every adventure is a unique creation forged by the entire team. Heroic Growth: Together, we will explore, adventure, and reveal the true nature of your heroes. If you want to be part of a storytelling team that grows together as a unit, there is always a spot at my table. Join me, and let’s create legendary tales filled with epic battles, cunning puzzles, and moments that will be cherished for a lifetime.

How Ben Jammin runs games

I love immersing my players in the game. Character voices, ambient sound, and music are integral to making us feel like we’re truly there. I run games Rules as Written (RAW), but I embrace the Rule of Cool when it extends what your hero can do and adds to the story and fun. Group storytelling is my forte—helping heroes grow both as individuals and as a cohesive unit. I believe in the power of shared narratives to bring us together, and while I love a good laugh around the table, I also cherish those moments where we’re moved to tears by the unfolding story. The storytelling doesn't pause when combat begins, and the excitement continues well beyond the battle. I take pride in weaving the narrative with your actions, turning you into the hero of our tale. Together, we’ll truly feel the essence of heroism and the adventures we create.
