About Chris Walz

I’ve been DMing for about 5 years now. I enjoy high-power campaigns, with lots of magic items. My favorite settings are Eberron and Exandria, and I own most of Wizards’ published campaigns.

I got started GMing...

During the lockdowns. My best friend’s wife and my sister were struggling with the lack of social connection, and I had just gotten into dnd myself, so I decided to run an online game for a group of my closest loved ones. I’ve been doing it ever since.

When I'm not running games I'm...

Working my day job and thinking about stuff to add to my games! lol. I also enjoy reading, watching YouTube and playing video games.

How Chris Walz runs games

Beginner-friendly. Tough monsters, stronger PC’s. Plenty of role play. Long campaigns or one-shots, with lots of fun dungeons filled with traps and puzzles.

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

Making a ruling in the moment that makes the most sense to me at the time, then go look up the “right” answer once the session is over and communicate to the group now such issues will be ruled in the future.

Rules are...

Mire like a fence than a wall. Necessary for the structure of the game, but able to be straddled, climbed or even crossed when the fun or the narrative calls for it.

When it comes to voices

I do my best. I like to think I’ve got several really solid voices as a result of my time spent studying music and singing.
