About me

About 5+ years ago, my oldest friend introduced me to D&D. Now, I'm ashamed to admit I was one of those who held the "it's a really nerdy game" stigma. But as we kept going with this one-on-one (eventually bringing another friend into it) self-made campaign before we even knew all the rules to the game... I WAS HOOKED. As I continued to play through the years, it became an outlet for me. This only grew as other genre TTRPGs were thrown into the mix like City of Mist, Pirate Borg, or even smaller scale ones like Honey Heist or A Familiar Problem. Finally, it reached the point where I found myself enjoying worldbuilding even more than I did playing. I've always been an imaginative person with a non-stop desire to create stories with emotion, detail, or pure love for narrative worldbuilding. I hope to share many adventures with all of you on this wonderful platform!

GM Style

I encourage my PCs to develop backstories that are as detailed as possible so we can work together to interweave them as the adventure progresses. For me, the “too much backstory” trope is ridiculous. I see it as a blessing. With the characters we create, I want everyone to be as creative as possible. Through various one-shots or full-fledged campaigns, I work hard to ensure that each NPC or creature is fleshed out with their own personalities and motivations. I enjoy giving every NPC a distinct voice and connection to the PCs if it adds to the wider story (with respect and boundaries). Please provide any feedback and I will work to improve! Continuing to try new TTRPGs!
