About me

"You look at all those people down there and realize that all the dreams that are being chased, that true spirit of this place is to hustle in the muck and the grime and grind away to make something miraculous happen. People make it happen for themselves." Hello, My Name is Dan James. I'm 28 years old and I've been GMing for almost 8 years now I've GMed a lot of D&D 5th edition and Monster of The Week. I have been expanding into a lot more TTRPGS to play. I have a background in Film, Theatre, and Storytelling overall and have a deep fondness for Expansive and Rich Table Top Role-Playing Adventures. I have strong attention to over-arching narratives and enjoy creating a space for players to collaboratively engage in the world they explore in. Representation is extremely important to me so I aim to create an inclusive world and adventures for players to explore. I hope to see you at the Table, ready for your next big adventure.


GM style

My style is largely attributed to creating a space for players to explore, collaborate, and improvise a game/narrative that everyone call feels a part of. For longer campaigns, I take a great deal of time weaving backstories into the narrative as a fundamental aspect of the game. I ensure every player feels safe and comfortable in exploring narrative themes in the game by following expansive rules of consent in gaming. I create a balanced style of roleplay/combat where players can be active and engaged in the roleplaying side of the game, then battle in intense and nailbiting combat that will give players a chance to show off their amazing abilities. I can be flexible with certain aspects of the rules if there is a strong narrative argument for them, (or if it would just be dope to do). LGBTQ+, BIPOC, and AAPI Friendly I have a zero-tolerance policy on the following in or out of the game: SEXUAL ASSAULT (OF ANY KIND) RACISM / HOMOPHOBIA / SEXISM Overall I take a great deal of time creating a memorable world for players to find their next adventure in.
