About me
Hi I'm Kat! I've been playing TTRPGs (D&D mostly) for 15~ish years. I've also been professionally teaching people how to play D&D 5e for about 4 years now, and I've gotten a lot of good feedback! I'm all about helping new players get into the game since I understand it can be hard to jump in on your own, even with all of the resources out there. Aside from DnD, I'm a big fan of horror stuff (I love a good game of Dread) and an avid video gamer.
GM Style
I would describe myself as a story-forward DM that's always ready to "yes and" a bit. I know the rules of 5e pretty well and usually try to stick to them, but I want my players to have fun first and foremost and am willing to let rules take a backseat in certain circumstances to accommodate that. I also want my players to be comfortable playing with me, and I'm a big advocate for using safety tools in my games and establishing boundaries to keep everyone safe. My primary focus right now is teaching new players. Have you never played before and need a run down on how the game works? Join one of my 101 courses to learn everything you need to know about either 5e or DnD 2024!
