About Hilel

Hello! my name is Hillel, I am a 22 year old dude who loves everything fantasy. ever since I was a child I was fascinated with dnd, I played in one form or another since I was 7. Six years ago, I begun DMing for a small group of friends and never stopped since. At this point I have six completed campaigns that were at least from level 2-12 and all of them occurred in my Homebrew high fantasy world of Tir'. I love DMing, it's my passion. The communal story telling, the Heros and Villans, the narratives and the lively vibrant world I've made with the 25 odd players who inhabited Tir' at one point or another will always hold a place in my heart. I want to make these worlds and forge these memories with YOU. (For a small fee :) ) Specifically I am interested in broadening my horizons and trying out new systems such as Daggerheart, Draw steel, Blades in the dark and Call of Cathulu.

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

A cook! As my day job anyway, I love cooking and baking, I'm also in the midst of writing my own fantasy novel and applying to literally studies.

How Hilel runs games

I believe that roleplay and combat are equally important and should be interconnected to have a good game. By that I mean that the combat I run always has a reason, your not gonna just fight some kobolds in a cave, you're gonna fight Kobolds who protect the ancient shrine of the dragon king, that was recently used, you can still smell the burning flesh of some sort of sacrifice, who could have done it? and what else are they planning? so basically what I mean is that the enemies I put in the game have a reason to be there, they are a part of a living, breathing world and each encounter is the beginning of a thread that will lead you down the rabbit hole of adventure. As for roleplay, I put the player characters first, they are the main focus and the drive of the narrative, I like to make player choices matter and I like to use the backstories they give. In fact I start most campaigns not knowing who the antagonists are and I let them materialize out of player choices. As far as general notes: -I like challenging combat and I like to empower my players with powerful items and abilities so they can overcome these challenges. -I like making lots of NPC's and giving each a little voice and a story of their own. -I adore playes who take risks and push the big red button. - for all of what I just said, I also incorporate a lot of humor into my campaigns and I like players who can match my whacky vibes.

My favorite trope is...

A silly little guy with the darkest backstory you've ever heard.

Rules are...

Suggestions that we follow for the most part, unless they get in the way of shenanigans.

When it comes to voices

I like doing them and I have many, I can even pull off some accents pretty well! Of course I would be kicked out of Scotland if I tried to do it there but that's just an occupational hazard you know?

Hilel's ideal table

My ideal table consists of people who have a good sense of humor, enjoy a challenging combat and push ALL THE RED BUTTONS.
