About Timothy Gustafson
Hey there! I'm Timothy and I've been dming for the better part of the last decade. I build expansive worlds where players can be whoever they want to be. I can run homebrew or official content, but either way I will work with the players to make their vision for their characters come through.

I became a GM because
I like telling stories, and the satisfaction I get when my players are satisfied and excited for the next session is unlike anything else
My favorite system of all Time is
DnD. And it probably always will be despite WotC's actions. It's the system I grew up with, and I'll probably keep playing until I drop.
When I'm not running games I'm...
Writing music. I have a great love for music and have for essentially my whole life.
How Timothy Gustafson runs games
My campaigns are very roleplay heavy, with a focus on narrative development and complex storylines. Combats are flexible to what the players enjoy, so I can run it casual or tactical. I make sure the players can become immersed in the world and fully embrace their characters.
Timothy Gustafson's ideal table
Heavy focus on roleplay and storytelling while remaining beginner friendly. I like to stay light but pretty much all my campaigns will have a deeper narrative element to add drama and seriousness to the world

I love it when a player
truly gets into character and has a roleplay moment that surprises the whole table
I think metagaming...
is okay in some cases, such as when a player recognizes a monster from another game, but I prefer that players avoid it when possible
I think min/maxing...
is fine so long as it fits your character. I'm not going to villainize you for it.
