About me

Mystery...Fantasy....Adventure! I've always been nose-deep in epic fantasy books and games, but I remember just how hard it was to find a TTRPG group in the first place, let alone a good one that would be as invested in the game/story. When all else failed, I started DMing and I fell completely in love with it! Now I spend most of my time crafting games for players with novel-length backstories, as well as for those that just want to roll some dice have a good time! In addition to DnD 5E, we've run Call of Cthulu, Savage Worlds, Starfinder, Monster of the Week, Cyberpunk and a few other indie games. Recently, my longest-running group liked the games so much, we even started streaming our DnD 5e Modern game, and we're loving every minute of it! If you want to immerse yourself in an epic adventure, tell a meaningful story, and create memorable experiences, then come find me and let's create something amazing!

GM Style

As much as I personally love tweaking a character's stats and discovering new systems for skills and combat, I much prefer playing and DMing a rich, story-driven campaign where each player has a chance to be in the spotlight and tell their character's story. That means having lore-rich worlds in which characters can explore and discover and I tend to roleplay all interactions that take place, and love it when players really get into their characters and work things out in game. Good for beginners and long-time players alike, there is still a good amount of combat and deadly challenges/consequences, but I try my best to have those instances be meaningful and somehow related to the story. And I don't overly emphasize the rules over creativity and flavor. My inspiration comes from a great number of fantasy/sci-fi writers, third-party publishers and Reddit threads, as well as from listening to other TTRPG shows like Critical Role, Glass Cannon, The Adventure Zone, Dimension 20, etc...
