I became a GM because

I became a GM because creativity flows through me like caffeine and chaos. Building wild stories, anime-level moments, and deep character arcs with players from all walks of life? That’s my therapy. It’s emotional, explosive, and always a little unhinged just like the best sessions.

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

Patient, explosive, and inspiring. You bring the wild idea. I’ll make it real, give it teeth, and set the world on fire around it. Let's see if you survive your own legend.

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

Spending time with my kid, bouncing between improv writing, lore drops, and hyper-focusing on maps, monsters, and cursed loot. I call it prep, but it’s really therapy. Also, probably still in pajamas.

How β„‚π•₯𝕣𝕝.𝔸𝕝π•₯.𝔻𝕖𝕗𝕖𝕒π•₯》Drew runs games

✦✧ I love crafting campaigns with rich themes and deep, interconnected narratives, where characters truly feel like they belong in the world. Every story is shaped around your characters and ideals, making the adventure personal and immersive. ✧✦ The balance between roleplaying, combat, and exploration shifts from one campaign to another. Some stories may focus on intricate puzzles and tactical battles, while others challenge players to think outside the box and find creative ways to navigate conflicts. ✦✧ To make each game even more engaging, I blend in elements of mentalism, adding a touch of mystery and excitement that fits naturally into the story. ✧✦ When shaping a campaign, I take inspiration from what excites you whether it’s books, video games, or movies. A quick chat about the stories you love can help create a world thats tailor-made for you. Let’s bring your perfect adventure to life!

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

If my games were movies, they’d be a chaotic fusion of Kill Bill (Tarantino), Fury Road (George Miller), John Wick (Stahelski), and The Matrix (Wachowskis). Stylish violence, world-shaking choices, cinematic tension, and just enough madness to keep the table on fire.

I prep by

I prep by designing rivals, gear, and lore as a vault ready to react. Player choices light the fuse. The more they shape the world, the more I can fill it with meaning. They lead the charge, I just make the fallout fun and worth living for.

Rules are...

Rules are the bones. I use them to keep the world grounded just enough to throw you through a wall. If something sounds crazy but cool, I’ll probably let you roll for it. Push the limit, and I’ll push back with something worse.

β„‚π•₯𝕣𝕝.𝔸𝕝π•₯.𝔻𝕖𝕗𝕖𝕒π•₯》Drew's ideal table

✧✦ My tables feel alive full of bold choices, rivals, cinematic tension, rule of cool, and wild roleplay moments. Expect custom items, unique art, and Foundry VTT support. Worlds evolve with every session, always growing with new content, mechanics, and visuals tailored to keep things fresh and immersive.

I love it when a player

I love it when a player’s β€œbad idea” turns into the most legendary moment of the campaign, and I have to say, β€œYeah, that’s not in the rules… but it’s way too cool not to allow.”

I think min/maxing...

I think min/maxing is exactly what heroes would do in-universe: sharpen strengths, cover weaknesses, and I respect the hustle.

My perfect party mix is

My perfect party mix is players who make me laugh, surprise me, treat combat like a puzzle, roleplay like a stage, and force me to rewrite the world mid-session.
