About Nathaniel

I am a fun, humorous, and adventurous Daggerheart Game Master who values player enjoyment and creativity above all else. I build mythic and epic worlds that react to the choices my players make, blending puzzles, combat, roleplay, and dilemmas in whatever mix best fits the table. As a facilitator, I give my players the spotlight, drawing inspiration from anime and film to create cinematic moments of growth and character focus.

I enjoy storytelling and improvising with friends.

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

kind, silly, and open to ideas.

When I'm not running games I'm...

helping others through personal training, going on rucks, or watching anime!

How Nathaniel runs games

In my games, you can expect a blend of tactical yet cinematic combat, playful roleplay (with plenty of laughs), and surprising twists that keep the story exciting. I encourage complete freedom for players to shape the world while still guiding everyone toward a meaningful conclusion. Most of all, my goal is for each session to leave you feeling energized, entertained, and eager for what comes next.

Featured Prompts

I deal with rules issues by...

providing the rules as written and coming up with an acceptable and fun decision based on the table.

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

Eichiro Oda

Rules are...

meant to guide, not restrict. We should follow the rules as much as is fun for the table.
