About Nathan

Hi there my name is Nathan. I have lived in Australia all my life and am currently working at a swimming pool. No no I'm not a lifeguard or even a swim teacher, I am the guy that books in schools and sports companies for their swimming lessons and for sports such as water polo. So why am I here you may be asking? Well I've been running dnd games for the last 4 years and I absolutely love it. In fact I've even worked for a company (side hustle while I am at the pool) called awakened fables who ran dnd games live at pubs. When I found out about this website I immediately joined because getting paid to do what you love should be everyone's goal in life right?

How Nathan runs games

My style is all about fun and your fun is what's most important to me. I consider myself quite adaptable to the situation to be able to provide what is needed for your fun. I will run games that require roleplay, combat, exploration, puzzle solving etc. I tend to have a bit of everything in my games rather than it being one big combat simulator or being non stop roleplay with no combat just as 2 examples. I run games as rules as written and don't use any homebrew however that being said I like to reward creativity and try to only say no when what you ask is outright impossible. so I guess you could say it's rules as written until you want to do something Unique then I go with the rule of cool.

Nathan's ideal table

My table style is all about having fun. The two most important things to me is that the players feel safe and are enjoying themselves. So come with an open mind, ready to make some friends and willing to work together as a group and I'm sure we'll all have a blast together.

I love it when a player

makes everyone laugh

I think metagaming...

Ruins the fun.

I think min/maxing...

Is fine if that's what you're into. I can definitely balance things if you do this. But it isn't really necessary. I promise you will feel like a champion when you kill the monsters.
