About me
Hello! I have been GMing a long time and am trying to offer fun games tailored to the desires of the group I'm running for. I want run an inclusive game that's fun for everyone, check in on people's safety regularly, and leave everyone wanting more. The thing I get the most praise for in my games are making NPCs that players like interacting with. Even with a published adventure I want to create a version that feels like YOUR unique version of that story.
GM Style
I oftentimes like to start a new campaign with a published adventure to get things rolling until I understand the characters and their goals. Then the adventure starts to reflect that relationship between the PCs and the world. I love to do NPC voices and enjoy bantering with the PCs.

Pat is a great GM/Keeper! He's great at setting the scene, telling a riveting story and keeping players engaged. We're both fairly new to ttrpgs and he's also very patient as far as explaining (or reminding about) rules and gameplay mechanics. He's very chill and easy to talk to and is great at putting players at ease. I'd recommend him for any newcomers or seasoned players looking for an excellent GM :)
Pat is an amazing GM. Our group is full of folks who love jokes when it's joke time, immersive story when it's story time, and action when it's action time. Pat does all three amazingly well. He also knows the rules of any game he runs, comes prepared, and does some incredible voices. He's willing to make a story that the GROUP wants. He's open with communication, and just a heck of a human!
