About me

EMBARK ON AN EPIC ADVENTURE WITH A SEASONED GAME MASTER! 🌟 With a treasure trove of pre-published adventure settings and custom campaigns, I craft captivating journeys for both you and your characters. Whether your group needs a new Game Master or you’re seeking a spot in a long-term campaign, I’m here to guide your epic quest. ALL EXPERIENCE LEVELS ARE WELCOMED! From complete beginners to seasoned veterans, there’s a place for everyone at my table. If you’re new to RPGs or it’s been years since your last game, don’t worry—I’ll teach you everything you need to know. For frequent players, I have plenty of exciting content to keep you engaged. Want to start a game for your family or your children and their friends? I offer both day and evening slots to fit your schedule. With over 40 years of gaming experience, I began my journey with the original AD&D Basic set. Since then, I’ve played and GM’ed countless games and campaigns, including 1st Edition AD&D, 2nd Edition AD&D, 3.5, 5e, Pathfinder, and Pathfinder 2e. I run games both play-by-post on Myth-Weavers and in real life, as well as via Fantasy Grounds VTT. CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT TO EXPECT? Just ask any of my players! Reviews are available on my GM page and from the 100+ active and former players on my Discord channel. Feel free to request an invite and join our community today. Let’s embark on an epic adventure together! 🏰🗡️🛡️

GM STYLE: My storytelling style blends old-school charm with modern adaptability, tailored to the audience.

I focus on character development through backstories and take the time to understand my players’ preferences to tailor my approach. Whether your group prefers action-packed adventures or deep roleplay and political intrigue, I can accommodate both styles. Thank you for considering my services.
