About August

Hello! Welcome all brave adventurers and weary travelers who have stumbled upon this page. My name is August (he/him) a humble DM who graciously invites you to join me for a few hours of entertainment and escapism as I present my worlds and stories for you to enjoy! I have been playing Tabletop RPGs for well over a decade and in that time I have found it to be the most wonderful and rewarding experience. As a DM, I have learned it is the very best way for me to convey my ideas and creations with the hope that it can inspire others, even if it's just in small little ways, if my stories help make a positive impact on someone, that means the absolute world to me. I may not be a perfect DM when it comes to remembering all the rules, but having fun is the most important rule at my table, so if my players are happy then I am happy! If you choose to try out a game with me, I can promise you rich and memorable experiences, a safe and comfortable environment, and endless stories you'll want to share with your friends that will have you coming back for more! I do hope you consider me in your gaming experience and if you do, I will welcome you with open arms and we will go on a epic journey together! The road goes ever on and on...

My 3 systems I'd bring to a desert island would be

Dungeons and Dragons, Star Trek Adventures, and Monster of the Week!

My favorite books are

The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, A Song of Ice & Fire, and the Silmarillion. I also like to study books on history and mythology to give me new ideas for my games.

When I'm not running games I'm...

Working on ideas for the next games! The games I run are always on my mind because I want them to be the best stories they can possibly be!

How August runs games

I would describe myself as a very casual DM. I enjoy telling a story and providing a world for players to enjoy more so then being finicky with rules or restrictions. If the rules ever impede upon a players ability to have fun, the player will always come first for me. I have been told I create fun stories and I like to think I'm fairly good at it. That's not me being modest, it's just my passion in life is to write stories for others to enjoy, and being a DM is the easiest way to achieve that whether for my friends or complete strangers. I love roleplay more than anything. I want to have players who can engage with the world I give them and create bonds with each other to make the most experience of my stories. If that is something that interests you, then you won't be disappointed!
