About Glorious Doof

I have 12 years of GM experience. I do different voices, role play NPCs and I can do any module or homebrew for Dungeons and Dragons and the same for Cyberpunk Red. I never shy away from bending the rules here and there for expedience's sake and to keep the fun going. I encourage creative role play. You want to slip a grenade in someone's pocket? It does 6d6 damage, but you know what? It was so clever and fun that- yeah- your target becomes a lump. You want to barter a shopkeeper's magic item or else you'll tell her husband about her secret money stash? Please do. I plan to run weekly sessions through Roll20. I will get maps necessary to ensure the fun and modules needed to enjoy the game the most. Curse of Strad? Sure. A mission from Keys from the Golden Vault? Absolutely. A homebrew campaign in Ravenloft, Theros or Ravnica? Got the books right here. Tales of the Red: Hope Reborn? Gotcha covered. My attendance policy is this: I pride myself with amazing attendance, I will be there every session. If half the players can't make it, I'll ask if we should cancel. If less than half can make it, then I will cancel. If one player misses the game, I don't believe it's fair to cut everyone else out, too. This policy is flexible though. 3-6 players is the amount of players I'm comfortable accommodating. Games tend to be 3-4 hours long, going longer or shorter sometimes depending on where we're at in the story. Wanna high energy DM? Gimme a shot. One Shot games are acceptable.

I became a GM because

Most people I know don't want to GM and I actually love doing it. I do it so the people who want to play can.

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

Creative, energetic and fair

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

Working on my card game or I'm out playing games.

How Glorious Doof runs games

I love to roleplay, I do voices and roleplay is often the best part of these games and I will always reward good roleplay. When it comes to combat, I will balance the combat, some fights will be easy, others won't be. It's just nice to have some easy fights to see how strong you've become and also fun to have those challenging battles that put you on the edge. I also go by the rule of cool. I will always reward smart thinking and clever gameplay, the means giving out XP even if you don't enter combat. I love character voices and personalities and I'm very good at doing them. I love the banter and roleplay between players and between the NPCs they interact with.

Featured Prompts

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

Hideo Kojima. I love the serious stories with the goofy side details. It's okay to be goofy sometimes when the overarching story is something you want to be invested in and motivated to complete.

Rules are...

great to go by as they provide limits and boundaries for the game and keep them interesting but sometimes they are best looked at like guidelines if it means making the game more fun. The Rule of Cool is king.

When it comes to voices

I will use different tones and pronunciations to make the NPCs feel more personable and different.

Glorious Doof's ideal table

If you like straight role play sprinkled with some goofy moments, this table is for you. While we mainly focus on the game and take it seriously, having a sense of humor makes it more fun for you and everyone. Creativity is appreciated and rewarded.
