How Josiah runs games

Immersive, player-focused, and creatively dynamic. I excel at weaving deep narratives and crafting vivid, living worlds where players feel their choices truly matter. My campaigns balance clever puzzles, epic battles, and emotional storytelling, all tailored to your characters' personalities and goals. With a knack for improvisation and humor, I foster a collaborative atmosphere where creativity thrives, ensuring every session feels unique and memorable.

Featured Prompts

I once ran a session...

Where two doppelgängers conspired and fooled the ENTIRE party into nearly killing a beloved NPC...

I prep by

Either meticulous planning or just caffeine

Rules are...

Rules are threats, made by the dominant socioeconomic group-- wait, no, that's Brennan. Rules are made to be made fun of in most DND games. Rules exist only to facilitate storytelling!

Josiah's ideal table

Roleplay-focused players will do super well. Patient people who enjoy the spotlighting of other characters (and their own). The general vibe should be peaceful and fostering friendships! Combat-focused players will find unbalanced and story-driven encounters more often than strict "can we take this right now?"
