About me

I am a seasoned nerd who found his people playing D&D. I grew up in a small town, and I didn't fit in very well. I liked the idea of TTRPGs even back then, but there weren't enough of my peers to play with. So, I spent all my time reading. I love fantasy, as a genre, and I've even taken to writing as a personal hobby (I know, so stereotypical it hurts) which has given me a love of world-building in general. I finally started playing for real the summer of '19, and a friend asked me to DM for his first game literally three months later. I've been running Dungeons and Dragons (5e) games pretty consistently since then. The first time was out of a module, but the rest have been all my own design. I'm game to play out of a module again, but I will always throw my own twist on it.

GM Style

I am more roleplay focused than combat focused. I still love combat, of course, but it's mainly to encourage the players to engage in interesting ways. There's nothing I love more than giving my players environments, items, and npcs to play with, and then getting absolutely wrecked by how they interact with/use them. In my experience, every tabletop gaming group needs to lay out clear expectations with each other, so I make sure to understand what my players want out of the game. If they aren't getting what they want, I encourage them to tell me so that I can adjust. I also love encouraging my players to do downtime activities that add to their characters, and rewarding them. You want to make a specific magic item? well, when you finish it, it'll pack a little extra punch. You want proficiency in an herbalism kit? go train with a turtle in the woods my guy, you'll make friends. Here's hoping we can tell wonderful stories together!
