About me

Long time story teller, and fantasy enthusiast. If I'm not deep diving into my video-game of choice (Ark survival currently) then I'm probably prepping for my in person game, or working on my latest LARP project.

GM Style

Home-brew is my preferred blend of beverage ;"3. I don't tend to do a lot of modules, but I absolutely love building a world based off of players background and actions. I'm very improvisation heavy, and absolutely love the world-building that home-brews allow. Definitely a firm believer that the rules and mechanics are there to help tell a compelling story, and not "the end all, be all". So if you have some unconventional characters or world settings in mind, let me know, and i would love to incorporate them into the world space. Lets tell some awesome stories.

Corlath is a very friendly and experienced GM. He's great with new people and great with experienced people. He has great preparation, impromptu skills, and understands fully when a player just wants to do something crazy and creative, and lets it get done in a natural, flowing way. Super chill 10/10

I can't emphasize enough what a patient and good Gm they are. They compensate for all ages and minds and I appreciate their willingness to let player shenanigans happen. Great for newbies and experienced players alike.

So, our dungeon master is pretty amazing. They've got this knack for letting us get really creative, like the time I made a flute from wood and spider silk to tame dancing spiders. And they're not just great with us; they even helped my 10-year-old son get into the game, which was awesome. The thing I appreciate most is their consistency; it makes each session really enjoyable. Plus, their world-building skills are top-notch, bringing the game to life with maps and even 3D-printed miniatures of our characters. It's these little details that make our adventures feel so real and engaging
