About me

Hello friends! I’ve been a Game Master for smaller games of 4-6 players for about 5 years. My favorite aspect of being a GM is world-building and character creation. Thus, I love homebrew content and homebrew worlds. The stories I tell are not just mine, they are told by the players as well. If you would love an action-packed fantasy adventure, with intricate roleplay opportunities, and a story that connects to your character’s backstory, I’m the Game Master for you!

GM Style

My GM style focuses on the traditional fantasy journey. Befriending strangers, taking on dangerous quests, forming meaningful connections, being confronted by past mistakes and backstories, and leading your character to find out who they are. Also, taking down the BBEG, but heavily focused on character interaction and roleplay. And, ensuring my players get a fun experience is always a top priority!

She was amazing! Explained everything well, kept the story moving even when we decided to go off the rails and get distracted with side quests (aka fight all the things🤣), and built an amazing world for us to play! Absolutely will be playing more games with Cara!

Cara is supportive of new and experienced players alike. She offers different hooks to make gameplay fun for everyone, and players can pick and choose what they want to latch onto, from having your backstory incorporated to finding unique magic items to rising to power in her wonderful anime-inspired homebrew world! I can't wait to come back!

Cara was really great to play with, easy to follow and rolled with the punches really well. 100% will play in her games again

Not only are Cara’s DM’ing skills awesome, but the system as well as story for the Djinn’s Labyrinth based on the Magi / Metal Vessels series, create some very unique one-shots. My favorite aspect is the ability for characters to progress even through one-shots. It has two benefits: If you want the option of rotating in different characters each game, you can as normal with one-shots, but if you really enjoy a character, you can continue to grow them like in a longer campaign! If you get a chance to book one of Cara’s Djinn Labyrinth one-shots, you should jump at the chance!

DM Cara was very inclusive and attentive to everyone's needs. I really enjoyed the vibe. Unfortunately, I think I stumbled upon a one-shot dungeon that was too easy. Based on the description, I was expecting a very difficult labyrinth with numerous battles. However, it turned out to be a simple arena fight. We were at level 10, but it felt like we could have managed it with level 5 characters quite easily.

She was so nice and sweet to us as beginners, we really felt included in the game and she helped us form and flesh out our characters. The world she's built is incredible and the jobs were interesting -- I'll definetly play again!
