About GM Cory
Story-Driven DM | Roleplay & Combat Balanced | 7 Years of Experience Howdy, adventurers! I've been rolling dice and shaping worlds for 7 years, with 4 years of experience as a Dungeon Master/Game Master. My DM style is roleplay-heavy, story-immersive, and character-driven, with plenty of challenging and unique combat to keep things exciting. I've run Ghosts of Saltmarsh, Out of the Abyss, Wild Beyond the Witchlight (completed), and dozens of one-shots, both homebrewed and published. On the side, I’m also running my own homebrew campaign spanning the multiverse, blending high adventure, deep lore, and player-driven storytelling. For me, a great D&D game is a collaboration since we're all here to tell an epic story together, and I love incorporating my players’ ideas to make the world feel alive. Whether you're uncovering ancient mysteries, forging legendary bonds, or facing down terrifying foes, I bring passion and energy to every session. If you're looking for a DM who values player agency, engaging storytelling, and a balance of roleplay and combat, then let's embark on an unforgettable adventure together!

How GM Cory runs games
I’m a DM who loves to dive deep into roleplay and character-driven stories. My games are immersive, with rich world-building and NPCs that feel alive, so players can make meaningful choices that impact the narrative. Combat is a big part of my campaigns, but I focus on keeping it unique and challenging, with encounters that push players to think strategically and creatively. I want every player to feel like their character matters, and I work to make sure the game is balanced between story, character growth, and exciting action. My goal is to create a welcoming, inclusive space where everyone feels safe to explore, grow, and have fun. Whether you’re a seasoned player or new to the game, I’m all about creating memorable, fun adventures.
