About Ben

Being a dungeon master as been a creative outlet for me for over 8 years. I take pride in running a story driven game where the backstories players make, shape the Campaign. Nothing is as fun as giving players real native choisies and being blown away by their unexpected choisies. I look forward to play with you!

I became a GM because

I became a GM because it is my favorite artistic expression. I love to tell stories and I love to experience them. As a GM I can do both: create interesting worlds and scenarios and be surprised by what the main characters do.

How Ben runs games

I like to run short, roleplay heave campaigns where the player-backstories influence the plot and the world. My game is typically low-combat, often using stealth missions, puzzles, skill challenges and social encounters as other obstacles in your way. The largest challenge I offer however are the difficult character decisions, because what do you do when the villains minion turns out to be your lost son?

Ben's ideal table

My ideal table cares about their own characters and dares to think outside the box. Who are you playing? and how would they react to the situation? However they do still aim to work as a team.
