About Bliss
Heyo! I would love to create a world that fits with the style and genre that YOU are into! I thrive when I'm allowed to host a custom-made game, I often homebrew that cannot be fulfilled with standard D&D. When it comes to hosting I am flexible to the wants and needs of you and the rest of the party! I run adventures ranging from Sci-Fi Spelljammer to grounded low-magic drama, all created hand in hand together with the players. Anything is possible: - Want a deep-diving adventure in the plane of water? - Want to be on the run in a daring survival game where you escape the law? - Want to kill or become a god? If you want a story worth your time, hit me up! You can contact me to learn more about what I am like as a DM on Discord: https://discord.gg/wREZNbnbrs or here on startplaying.games! My virtue's: Homebrew is a must, Rule of Cool is the way forward and im always prepared if the unthinkable happens! I'm open to criticism, want to learn, and hope to deliver!

I got started GMing...
In July of 2018 I played 5e Mines of Phandelver with a bunch of friends; we rolled to hit for cure wounds, didn't know what initiative was, and weapons broke on nat 1's We had fun, but man, was that terrible 😂
People are always surprised when I tell them
I'm Dutch! Most people find my accent nearly indistinguishable!
The three words my players would use to describe me are...
I actualy asked my players, here are my favorite 3: - Witful - Determined - Caring Honorable mentions: Creative, Sassy, Exhilirating, Charismatic, Improvised, I don't full agree with EACH, but I am glad I got such nice players 😅
How Bliss runs games
* I want a safe environment for everyone. Being comfortable and learning as we go. Homophobia, racism, ableism, transphobia, or hate speech will not be tolerated. * I always Integrate player backstories, working on characters together, and building a story that is enjoyable + badass is my main objective. *Rule of Cool is more important than being a rule's lawyer, a great story concept will go further than a damage build at my table!

I deal with rules issues by...
Talking about it, plain and simple. There is no 1 cookie-cutter answer to every question, including rules. It is my job to make sessions entertaining by setting challenges, rewarding smart and creative thinking, and most of all, including your amazing ideas!
My games focus on...
The players characters. There will be storylines that highlight backstory choices of your character, the spotlight shared among all. Secrets will be revealed, stories will be told, and characters will meet their end only once you, the player, are okay with your characters story having concluded.
Rules are...
Guidelines to tell a great story! Rule of Cool above all!
Bliss's ideal table
When my players are having fun the session is at its best. Beginers are helped, the spotlight is shared, so as long as you are enthousiastic then the sessions will be amazing! If you can communicate, share the spotlight, and show up most sessions then that would be Ideal!

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table
A mix between combat and roleplay, and both influencing the other. Actions taken in roleplay will influence the story, and actions in combat will influence the roleplay. They go hand in hand, as they should!
I think metagaming...
Can be used only to inhance a story, or shouldn't be used at all: Your character not knowing your ally is a vampire makes the reveal even better later down the line! And you realizing before your character does allows you to play into the plot!
My table is not the place for...
Racism, real life politics, transfobia, homofobia, etc. Please find a difrent DM if you are not LGBTQ+ friendly
