Ryan is such an amazing GM! I've played with him in several different systems, including D&D 5e, Call of Cthulhu, and Monster of the Week. Ryan makes sure to bring every PC into the story and balances story beats well with game action! He rewards players' creativity and definitely abides by the rule of cool. If you're looking for an incredible collaborative storytelling TTRPG experience, Ryan is the GM for you!

Ryan is top tier. He always allows his players a lot of creative freedom in their character development. He's a very collaborative story teller, that truly wants to help you tell your story. He consistently brings every individual to the forefront, ensuring every player at the table has the opportunity to shine. He's fantastic at helping new players learn while keeping the pacing very engaging for the veterans at the table. And unlike any other GM I've played with, will keep you on your toes, always thinking 5 steps ahead in all possible directions your character/party will go. I can't recommend him enough to run your game. At the end of the day, he's just a big kid that wants to have fun with you.

Ryan is a great collaborative storyteller and makes sure his players have as much fun in his stories as he has creating them. Highly recommend him for horror/spooky game content, as he adheres to safety/consent in gaming sheets.

Ryan is one of the best GMs I've ever had the pleasure of playing with. He's highly imaginative, his stories are well thought out with crazy turns and surprises at every corner, and his knowledge of the gaming material is on point. He can weave a terrifying story while drawing you deeper and deeper into every nuance of the scene. I highly recommend Ryan for anyone wanting to play, new players and experienced alike, he will really give you a memorable gaming experience.

I'd you like eldritch horror and brain bending puzzles, Ryan is a GM you will love! He is fantastic at creating adventures with deep lore and asking players to find and use that lore!
