About me
Hi! I'm a comedian and nerd that loves to play Dungeons & Dragons. I tour across the country DMing a live comedy game featuring comedians as players. I love big and dynamic games where players get to have fun and enjoy their time laughing and having a great experience.
GM Style
I tend to favor a game where players get to have control of the game. One of my favorite things is adapting the story in collaboration with the players and finding ways to highlight each player's character. I am very much a fan of comedic and organic moments that create memorable experiences.

I had a wonderful time playing briefly in Cavin's adventure, he was very helpful in moving the game along and keeping it interesting. He showed wonderful patients with me and ensured all were included in the game. Unfortunately, due to changes in real life I was unable to play at the required time and had too unfortunately withdraw from the game. I wish Cavin all the best and would recommend his games to anyone.
Cavin was great! He knew the material, quickly responded to improvisations when I did something weird and that fit the material (apologies to the half orc half frog, I am SO SO Sorry!) Dudes chill, knowledgeable, and rolls with it and that's a good DM in my book. Plus he asked about triggers beforehand so I could be assured there weren't any spiders 😅
Cavin was a great game master! It was our first session as a group in quite some time and he did a great job helping us with rules we forgot while keeping the session on track and moving forward. He went above and beyond with voice work and allowed for some creative role play for the group when it aligned with the “rule of cool.” Hiring Cavin is a great option for those new to DnD or veterans who have a hard time deciding who will DM the upcoming session.
Cavin's extremely agile! Our group certainly gave him some curve balls, but he handled them with humor and quick thinking. He seems to want to make sure the players are getting to be the kinds of heroes they want to be. And, bless him, when we got off on a tangent (which we often did), he engaged enough to honor the humor of the moment, but also gently steered us back into action. Well done!
I have been playing ttrpg for 27 years and Cavin is by far one of the best Game masters I've come across. He puts alot of thought and effort into every game. Includes soundboards and visuals. Very inclusive and great for beginning players l. He's ran games for my 13yo twice and she loves him
