About Cody

Greetings, adventurers! My name is Cody, and I’ve been a Game Master for over a decade, weaving epic tales and unforgettable journeys in Dungeons & Dragons and, more recently, Pathfinder 2e, which I’ve completely fallen in love with. Originally from Chicago, I now call Europe home, where I continue to fuel my passion for immersive storytelling and dynamic gameplay. For me, tabletop RPGs are more than just games—they’re about crafting worlds, creating deep character moments, and forging unforgettable experiences. I thrive on building rich narratives, balancing combat with roleplay, and making every session feel meaningful and engaging. My goal is simple: to provide my players with thrilling, immersive experiences where we laugh, strategize, and create legendary memories together. If you’re looking for a GM who is passionate, experienced, and committed to work on making every session feel like an epic tale, then I’d love to welcome you to my table! Are you ready to step into the story? The dice are waiting to decide your fate! 🎲✨

How Cody runs games

My job as a GM is to ensure that everyone at the table is enjoying their time and creating memorable moments together. I try my best to immerse each player in the scene. I do voices for many NPCs, balance of roleplay and combat, create interactive and diverse combats, homebrewed, story-rich, and flavorful monsters. I strive to weave pieces of player backstories into the narrative to further connect the characters to the story. I Love to see the paths that the players weave through the adventure. Atmospheric music to help set the mood

Rules are...

A nice structure but become elastic for the fun of the story and table!

When it comes to voices

I try to diversify most of the important NPCs and give them quirks so you know who is who

Cody's ideal table

I like to run a game as if you are my close friends where everyone can be open and comfortable with eachother and where our creative actions play off of each other.

I love it when a player

Sticks with what their character would do even if the player knows it is a bad choice. Always creates fun story moments

I think metagaming...

is a subconscious thought that a lot of us strategy gamers have and is at a certain point is inevitable. But I much prefer the efforts to minimize metagaming unless your character learns it.
