About Tsriel
In the year 2000, I walked into a shop not knowing what it was. They must've cast some kind of spell because I've been addicted to TTRPGs ever since. A year later, I was making my own content to DM out of notepads and graph paper plus whatever objects were handy for minis. Alot has changed since then, especially the media and tools we use today. I've gone from doing alot of in-person DMing at conventions to enjoying the convenience of online play. I cut my RP teeth with AD&D (2e) though 3e (and it's evolutions) is where I really got into the nuts and bolts of level design and combat gameplay. I have dabbled with 4e for a few years until 2014 when 5e released and changed the scene yet again. I've some experience with Pathfinder 2e as well, though I prefer 5e. I've also a smattering of other rulesets as well, such as Star Wars (FFG is my favorite version) and Shadowrun.

I got started GMing...
as a way to escape homelessness and depression. True story. I found D&D while I was on the streets as a teen. Donated plasma in order to buy my first PHB (3e).
When I'm not running games I'm...
doing something with a motorcycle or working on various projects
How Tsriel runs games
I'm a "beer and pretzels" kind of DM with a tactical mind. I've no qualms about using the occasional pun or "dad joke". I place an emphasis on fun, though I can be serious too. I try various accents, though they're mediocre at best.
Tsriel's ideal table
Featured Prompts
I am for a vibe that's...
open, respectful, and intellectual.
I think min/maxing...
is a valid way to play, but I do feel that the player that is min/maxing should be cognizant to not overshadow the other players.
My table is not the place for...
racism, bigotry, or anything deemed hateful towards any one race, orientation, or affiliation. Check your prejudices at the door. It's not a place for politics either.
