About Matt
I’m Matt! I started playing Dungeons and Dragons when my first son was born. He had some extra needs when he was a baby which caused us to have to take shifts to feed him at night. Long boring nights led me to 2 things, arma and d&d on roll20. I applied to about 10 different games finally landing on a Lost Mines campaign. That group was lovely, but it fell apart. I then turned to my discord group and asked if anyone was a dm as I wanted to finish lost mines. Turns out we had 1. A group of us joined and that too fell apart. At that time I decided I would try my hand as a dm. I ran a few one shots, then I wrote a very basic sloppy story. My discord group loved it so I worked on a dark souls themed story. Both of those games completed! I have written a level 1-5 world that is the start to a 3 part series to take them to level 12. I would like to run modules in order to gain perspective on my world building. I have whatever the $100 a year sub is on roll20 but also would like to see other VTTs. I typically use dungeon draft, dungeon alchemist, and provided roll20 maps, but also want to learn more tools. There are 2 things I really want to do. I want to play in an irl group (never have), and I would like to finish lost mines! In all seriousness I love d&d and I love new players and diversity as they bring new ideas to campaigns. I also love old players. Discrimination is a hard no at my table and a session 0 will happen for each campaign to lay out ground rules with the group.

I got started GMing...
Because we had a group, but no dm
How Matt runs games
I will admit I’m not good with voices. I like combat but a great rp chemistry at the table is amazing. However, I also understand most people won’t rp as much their first few go arounds. That is totally fine! That’s where my job comes in as a dm to lead you into the elements you are uncomfortable in and make it a comfortable situation. I live by the rule of cool and immersion, so if something happens in game and we make a call, we roll with it. If it’s something you feel we could have done better, I’m always open to message privately. I will answer in a timely manner. There are a few things I don’t allow at my tables Discrimination against other players - 0 tolerance Anyone that takes over others moments/people who’s character is just an asshole and won’t work with the team. Disagreement is fine, but when it start affecting gameplay and others from having a good time you’ll be asked to stop. I don’t mind romance, but we’re not following you into the room at the inn. If it is a campaign and not a one shot, I like a session 0 to go over characters, the world, questions, and laying out some rules to ensure we have a good game! Let’s tell some stories
