About Defhan

So, the last time we left off, I was an avid fan of tabletop roleplaying games and interactive storytelling since childhood. After many years of theatre and fiction, I had properly started my ttrpg adventure with DnD 5e and CoC about 6 years ago. My first few years were mostly spent convincing friends to give these games a chance, it thought me a lot about the beauty of starting this hobby and how exciting it is to see someone take their first steps into it. Ever since then I've loved playing with beginners and newcomers. But boy was I ready for more! Since starting this journey I had the chance to work as a pro DM in taverns, create TTRPG communities, start a multimedia brand where we talk and play ttrpgs (@durundragons) and even develop my own game system suited for a Harry Potter-themed campaign, minus the terfs. I have always been a storyteller at heart but what I came to love most about this form is how unexpected and astounding it is to be in awe of your players. I grew to feel less like a game master and more like the world in which my players create and tell the most fantastical, dramatic stories. But, this was all just the beginning... What new adventures and dramatic twists await me and my brave heroes? To find out, let's dive in together to tonight's session!

How Defhan runs games

Always an avid fan of roleplaying for many years and although I can't do accents to save my life, I make sure to give each role a distinct character and personality when bringing them to life. My hobbies include character-driven stories, high-stakes tactical combat, engaging puzzles and mysteries, player traumatizing dramatic plot twists and getting caught in the rain. Not a fan of pina coladas though, terribly sorry.
