About me

I own and operate a pirate themed booth at Renaissance festivals, I have an ecclectic knowledge of pirate lore and European, asian and African history. I am also an RPG nerd, anime weeboo and fan of most things by DreamWorks. I love good stories. I generally will allow shenanigans if it will make for a fun story.

GM Style

I focus mainly on the roleplay aspect of the game with epic fights sprinkled in. Being an improv actor and former voice actor, I can change directions based on decisions my players make. I also will allow most shenanigans if it makes for a cool story, goes along with the theme ect. I bring visuals and verbal story telling.

He is great to get started playing D&D with and is very creative in his world building. He is also very open to developing homebrew stuff with players to make games more fun.

The world that Whist put together for us was both diverse in detail/story and also creative in its uniqueness. His ability to stick to his ruling while also giving players creative freedom brings a fun balance to the game. I would recommend him as a GM for both new players and veterans alike.

The DM encourages role playing by acting as animated as the characters he is playing.

Stephan is an excellent storyteller, one who can take an established setting and give it a twist that gets players involved. He knows when to play things "RAW" and when to let players go for "rule of cool" stunts that make for memorable sessions. He's a great GM and I'd be happy to play in one of his games again.
