About Wolf
I run games in a persistent Westmarch-style world where player actions have lasting consequences. I manage the shared campaign space and also run sessions as an active DM. I’ve been DMing for about 8 years and have over 50,000 hours on Roll20. I’m comfortable keeping things under control at the table while still letting players push boundaries and do unexpected things without the game falling apart. I use custom maps, tokens, and NPCs, and I keep things consistent over time. NPCs remember players, the world changes based on what happens, and characters are part of the setting instead of just passing through it. My games lean into cinematic storytelling, but combat and encounters still matter. Creativity, teamwork, and smart decisions are rewarded.

How Wolf runs games
My table places a strong emphasis on narrative, with player choices actively shaping the world and its future. Combat is both tactical and cinematic, designed to carry real stakes and reward thoughtful decision-making. I bring deep knowledge of D&D 5E to the table and apply the rules with flexibility when doing so improves pacing and player experience. Player agency is central to every game I run; characters matter, and their decisions have lasting consequences. The overall table tone is immersive, collaborative, and focused.

I deal with rules issues by...
Quickly checking the rule, listening to the player, make a DM call, and then talk about it later with the player.
I prep by
I put aside at least 3-4 hours for session planning for one of my storyline sessions. I spend time writing, generating artwork, collecting/generating maps, and session planning.
Rules are...
Important. I try and stay as true to the rules as possible. However, I always leave a little bit of room for the Rule of Cool.
Wolf's ideal table
At my table, things are pretty cinematic, and what you do matters, actually. The world changes based on player choices, and it doesn’t just reset between sessions. Roleplay is important, but I’m not looking for long speeches. I care more about characters having clear goals, flaws, and growing over time. Combat is tactical and has real stakes. I don’t throw in fights just to fill time. Encounters tie into the story or something going on with a character. I don’t railroad. Players decide what direction things go, and the world reacts in ways that make sense, even if it’s not always in your favor. This table is a good fit if you like story, making decisions that matter, and dealing with consequences. If you’re just here to min-max, hog the spotlight, or avoid roleplay, it’s probably not the right fit.

I love it when a player
Suprises me.
I think it's a red flag when players...
Start asking for homebrew materials before their first game.
I think metagaming...
It is unavoidable, but with practice, one can try to minimize its effects at the table and as an individual.
