About Vinnie
Howdy y’all, I’m Vinnie, and I have over 8 years of game management experience and more than 15 years of tabletop play under my belt. I believe that the best sessions are the ones that balance story, fun, and player creativity—where the rule of cool outweighs the strictness of the rules, and those rules serve as guidelines rather than limits. My tables are designed to make you think, laugh, and feel immersed in a world that’s alive, without ever being overly stressful or bogged down in mechanics. I’m fun, collaborative, and passionate about building memorable adventures, with a background in creative writing that lets me spin narrative threads into epic moments. I specialize in Star Wars 5e campaigns full of cinematic action, deep choices, and a galaxy-spanning scope, as well as high fantasy adventures in D&D 5e, where heroes rise from humble beginnings to legendary heights. Whether you want political intrigue, daring space battles, mythic quests, or character-driven storytelling, I bring a flexible, player-focused approach that ensures everyone at the table feels like the hero of their own story.

How Vinnie runs games
At my table, you can expect immersive stories, big cinematic moments, and a healthy balance of roleplay and action. I love weaving player backstories into the larger narrative, so your character’s choices and history will always matter. Roleplay is front and center—whether it’s tense negotiations with a crime syndicate, heartfelt conversations with allies, or dramatic monologues before a battle, I make sure every character gets their spotlight. That said, when it’s time to roll dice, combat will feel tactical, cinematic, and high-stakes. I run encounters that make you think, but keep the pace moving so it never drags. Expect battles where creative problem-solving, teamwork, and a touch of daring will pay off more than just crunching numbers. I specialize in Star Wars 5e and high fantasy D&D 5e, building worlds full of political intrigue, dangerous enemies, ancient mysteries, and moral choices that actually matter. My rule of thumb: “the rule of cool beats the rulebook”—if you come up with something awesome, I’ll work with you to make it happen. Above all, my goal is for everyone to walk away from the table with stories worth telling—epic wins, hilarious failures, and memorable adventures that feel like your legend.
