About Ryan

Hi everyone DM Stormy Here! I am an Australian gentleman by the name of Ryan. I started DMing about 10 years ago for friends and have run all sorts of adventures in the years to follow online. I love taking fun and creative roleplay and mixing it with challenging and dynamic combat and/or high stakes situations. I like doing NPC voices and creating meaningful friendships with likeminded gaming enthusiast.

How Ryan runs games

Expect by the book rules and expectations, with a gentle use of Rule of Cool when appropriate. Meaningful Roleplay with a variety of voices and personalities to breathe life into the world. Exciting terrain using and decision focused combat, that is narrative expanding and challenging.

Featured Prompts

My games focus on...

Navigating social and combat challenges that are more then just random encounters with no meaning. I like to explore common social tensions and dilemmas and encourage out of the box problem solving.

When it comes to voices

I try to bring life to the personality and appearance of the person. Accents, drawls, stutters, pacing. Whatever makes the character memorable to the PC's!

Ryan's ideal table

Players who like to take time to roleplay and talk amongst themselves in character. Players who naturally think about the who, what, where and why of things. Those that are experienced and are seeking combat challenges.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

-Takes the time to talk with the party about there next move. -Makes small talk and inquiries with the npc's of the world. -Try and solve problems by interesting means.

My table is not the place for...

-Real world drama, religion, racial, overly personal. -Characters who want to only take part in combat and not pay attention to the world around them.
