About me
Salutations, one and all! I’m a 46yo male. I’ve played every edition of DnD, and GM’ed for all of them for more than 30 years, both official adventures and those of my own design. To me, a DM is a storyteller; someone who guides characters on their adventures and helps them grow into who they are meant to be. It’s not an adversarial relationship, it’s a symbiotic one. I expect my game to be free of “isms” and “phobias”, such as Sexism, homophobia, etc.
GM Style
As a GM, I love all aspects of play: Combat, RP, Exploration, etc. I appreciate when players get into their characters, but I don’t expect you to be able to give spontaneous speeches, or to have the same knowledge your character would. If your character would have a chance to know something, I’ll let you know. Also, open to all levels of experience. 😎

Richard is friendly, open to ideas, and knowledgeable about the game. A great option for beginners or experts alike. Regardless of your experience, I’d highly recommend him as a DM. Apparently he likes tips, too. No, he didn’t tell me to say that. Why are you looking at me funny? (Just kidding. Kinda. Everyone appreciates tips for a job well done, right?)

If you're new to d&d lime me, I'd totally recommend Richard as a dm. Knowledgeable and patient also a good story teller.

Richard is very nice and welcoming to his players. He guides and helps us understand how to use the tools to play the game. He is laid-back and he listens as much as he narrates the events and their consequences. I wholeheartedly encourage you to try him as your DM.
