About me

I have been running games since I was ten years old and have always enjoyed stories of hijinks and high adventure as well as the occasional creepy crawl into the shadowy abyss. I enjoy a wide variety of games and love to have a table filled with laughter. I have experience running games for players between 7 years old and 87 years old, if you need an experience tailored to your specific age group or other demographic, I would be happy to work with you to get just the game you are looking for. You can learn more about me and some of my games at my website: caithegm.com

GM Style

I prefer an adventure-focused combination of combat and role-playing challenges filled with hijinks and laughter, but I can also bring the ‘ruddy mysterious’ if you prefer to play something a little more spooky. I believe in giving each party member a way they contribute and shine in every scenario and encourage character growth and development in campaign play. I am happy to run text-only games for the hearing or speech impaired.

1st session, Cai had a scenario that had juicy combat and some role play investigation with a hook into the next session. He was helpful with Savage Pathfinder rules and operation of Foundry VTT, these slowed down the session but he was patient and allocated enough time, really solid pacing. This was 5-star fun and I'm sure the next session will dial it up even higher.

Solid guy. Very patient with those learning the rules (and forgetting them) while providing a laid back atmosphere where everyone has a good time. Gives a lot of freedom with your characters and adapts and clearly has a passion for being a DM. Would highly recommend.

I have greatly enjoyed playing under Cai. He creates an immersive experience, works with his players to make sure they are getting the best experience possible, and is very good at adapting to the actions of his players. I highly recommend him to people looking for a game to play.

He was able to slip in my new character into an in-progress campaign pretty easily. He knew the rules and how the VTT operated very well, and was able to help me out to do what I wanted to do.

Cai is a wonderful gm who treats his games like a job, more so than I’ve seen others do. His goal is to professionally make a story in which every player has fun, and he does an excellent job of it.
