About me

Looking for a DM who can really run your adventure? Look no further, I'm dungeon master Alex and I am ready to breathe life into our games. I have been playing D&D for a long time now until I decided "hey, I can run my own games, why don't I?" And then everything fell in order. I have deducted that I can make a much better DM than a player, and the fact that I love to do so is what makes everyone on the table recall each session with fondness for a very long time. I believe that rule of cool must indeed trump the rulebooks when needed so, I take that to my table as well. I also love to take every oportunity to play with your character's back stories and personal goals. My adventures are full or roleplaying oportunities that will allow your characters to seek their personal goals whatever they are. I create games that feel organic thanks to their details, roleplaying and combat balance, well thought and prepaired stories and most of all, for giving my players the options to do whatever they like from the beginning of the game without messing up the story at all. Would you like to play as an adventurer group which targets honor and glory? Maybe you are after treasure and glittering gold no matter the cost. Or perhaps you wish to dive into the dark and evil aspects of the game where you can either pillage and slay the innocent or work under a sinister organization to dominate the world. I've got you covered. I carefully create all my adventures (even official ones) to be played by a good, neutral or evil group to allow the players to do their thing without restricting them. I have always an open door policy where we can discuss everything regarding our game in order to either improve or to provide with additional oportunities that each of you might want. Let's create amazing and unforgetable adventures together!

GM Style

First of all I would like to make clear, that I will be with you all, on every step of the way. I will be happy to discuss about your characters and ideas and possible improvements on the experience whenever you like. I am also experienced enough to guide new players into the game and above all, give them the oportunity to play as much as the more experienced players. I will be providing a nice relaxed enviroment for us to play since this is our way to escape our day to day troubles. Discrimination and bullying of others will not be tolarated. Let's just have fun together and be nice to each other. This brings me to our possible cultural, religious and sexual differences which goes without saying that must be respected while adventuring together. I know that the rules and the Raw material are an important aspect in the game, and I am fully prepaired to run a game exactly as it is in the books if that's what you are after. However I am also prepaired to give you my version of each published adventure which I guarantee to be a richer and more organic experience. Also house rules will aply as well, nothing too drastic though. And finaly, I really wish that I will have the oportunity to show you my passion about storytelling and worldbuilding. I wish to make every NPC, monster and adventure trully unforgetable.

I played in Alex's campaign for well over a year, and I had a blast! He is a terrific story teller and world builder. The game sessions were lively and fun, and Alex gives plenty of scope for player creativity. We genuinely were able to affect the world and to move the levers of fate. It was exactly what I imagined Fantasy Role Playing to be!

Our party was small. 2 Players. But I can say with all my honesty the DM handled it amazingly. One of the most immersive and cool campaigns I played. It was tough but he allowed us to explore all the possibilities and come up with our own plans. Definitely would advise to play this story once.
