About John Swift
Love DMing groups and campaigns. I've been doing it for a very long time and I'm super flexible, always encouraging players to create rich backstories that I can weave into any story / narrative and providing agency to have the best possible gaming experience.

When I'm not running games I'm...
working in tech, writing, reading, exercising, videography / editing and just generally trying to be as creative as I can in as many ways as I can.
How John Swift runs games
I like immersive story telling and action oriented combat. I work hard to ensure that players get what they want most out of a gaming experience and I am committed to providing an engaging and compelling gaming experience.
Featured Prompts
My games focus on...
the characters as much, if not more, than the main story arc and plot. The latter is important but weaving character history, motivations and goals into my games as much as I possibly can.
John Swift's ideal table
I like players who are eager to explore, engage, and participate. Players who ask questions and are willing to work with me to get the best possible experience from their gaming experience is incredibly important. I'm flexible and welcome creativity. I homebrew from time to time but it's not often. Instead, I prefer to focus on the story arcs, player integration and, above all, fun for the entire group. I'm not a rules lawyer and I reward creative play.
