About Deen

I’m a passionate DM that puts telling a good story above all else. I’ve been playing D&D since high school and went crazy about it in college. I love TTRPGs and I’m always learning new systems and expanding my knowledge. I run lots of home games for my friends and have fallen into the forever DM archetype but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

Witty, Immersive, Improvisational

How Deen runs games

I’m very flexible in my Gming, adapting on-the-fly to the actions of my players. I try to bring in a balance of comedy and drama, taking the game seriously without losing any of the fun of the game. I combine witty roleplay, fun puzzles, and well-prepared encounters along with a decent sprinkle of old-fashioned stupidity. In my campaigns, I work hard to incorporate every character’s story into the over arching plot but I’m always ready to follow where my players lead. I’m well-versed in the rules of the systems I run but I’m always ready to improvise and follow the rule-of-cool.

Rules are...

A framework to fall back on, not the end-all, be-all.

When it comes to voices

I love doing NPC voices and making fun, compelling characters. My accents aren't perfect but they’re practiced and sometimes silly.

Deen's ideal table

If you like dark comedy, D&D, and want to have a good time, come have a seat. Newer players are always welcome and I’m happy to teach or refresh some skills.

I think metagaming...

Is hard to completely avoid. But separating the knowledge and decision-making of your character from your own is the mark of a good player.

My table is not the place for...

Trying to be the main character nor the lone wolf. It’s a collaborative game and no one wins unless we work together and tell a good story.
