About me

Greetings adventurers! I’m Arden, your guide through worlds of magic and mystery. My mission is to create unforgettable stories and immerse you in worlds where your imagination can run wild. My main approach to DnD is that it is a place for collaborative storytelling, where a group of stranger come together to weave an epic story all their own. With years of experience in storytelling and a passion for creating new stories, I hope bring creativity, adaptability, and a touch of magic to every campaign and one-shot. No matter if you are a seasoned adventurer or just embarking on your first adventure, I'm dedicated to making each session a memorable one.

GM Style

The number one rule is the rule of cool! Playing games and telling stories supposed to be fun. My main goal as a DM is to make sure everyone is laughing and having a good time and noone feels left out. I like to have fun and encourage players to explore. Try new things and build what they want. I'm always open to ideas and love collaborating with others to make the character they want.

Had a blast playing a lvl 20 oneshot. Sadly didn't utilize a lot of my character, but the group was awesome

Very fun boss fight! We couldn't do it all in one night so we continued later in the week.

Ran a fun oneshot. Some of the players got creative and threw some wrenches in the story but Arden adapted and kept the game moving.

Arden was consistently friendly and upbeat. The level 20, "anything goes" on-shot that he ran led to some fairly wild shenanigans and, in one instance, potential PvP and (maybe inadvertent) rule-breaking by one particular player, but he kept things moving regardless. The game itself felt rough around the edges; we effectively were just plopped onto the battle map and told to roll initiative. However, Arden definitely worked to keep things fun for everyone, and he was great to interact with, both in the game and on his Discord beforehand. I definitely would play with him again.
