About DM Bobbo
Come join a campaign with me! I have been running TTRPGs for 2 years online on my server "Bobbo Gaming". I specialize in running official Dungeons & Dragons campaigns, but also offer home brew, have run Pathfinder, Star Wars, and Marvel. I love introducing the game to new players, so if you're unsure of the rules, or new to online role playing games, give one of my games a try! I am both beginner as well as expert friendly; any level of experience is appreciated, as I tailor the groups and dynamics to the players in my games. I've run games for players from a variety of backgrounds and skill levels, including teaching the game to children as well as adults with autism. My games are a safe space for LGTBQ+, POC, and neurodiversity. I stream 1 game a week for the public to see, as well as run 1 monthly 1 shot.

I became a GM because
4 years ago I ran for political office and lost. During my campaign I was playing in 2 D&D groups with 2 different DMs. Although I thought they were fun, I had the belief I could do better. So when I lost my election I started running my own games. It's been fun!
How DM Bobbo runs games
The Tech | Voice Games - I use Discord, with immersive sound played from Roll20. I have extensive music libraries and try to incorporate music to suit the scene! Player Agency - It's important that players know that their choices matter. The game environment will change and react to the player's actions from minute to minute, and session to session. Immersion - I do my best to get players to focus on the game environment and the role play potential around them. Tactical maps - I use tactical maps for combat, but every so often will utilize theater of the mind. Rules are there to be bent - I love improvised actions. If you want to bend the rules, describe how you're going to be awesome, and I'll work with you! Laughter - The game is all about laughing with/at your friends! (even the ones you haven't met yet...)
DM Bobbo's ideal table
Table is relaxed and fun. I try to get a beat on how everyone is doing, but we stay in character for 95%+ of the session.

I love it when a player
Puts in work behind the scenes. It means they really care about their character and the campaign. I've had players draw art, maps, things like this. It makes me feel great!
