About DM Darque
I've been playing D&D since the 2000s and started DMing a few years ago when my regular DM took a break. Now I run weekly modularised one-shots and mini-campaigns. I'm not a rules lawyer and I love to reward my players for creativity and comedy! While sometimes the themes can get dark, my goal is always to create realistic-feeling worlds with real stakes and shades of grey. I'm narrative-forward and my players say I'm great at creativity, voices and storytelling. Visit my profile for reviews or my website - dmdarque.com - for even more info!

How DM Darque runs games
My style is more roleplay leaning and I love narrative surprises. I'm pretty relaxed on rules and if it sounds cool, I'll probably let you do it. :) I'll run everything on Discord and with D&D Beyond's VTT which is as easy to learn as Microsoft Paint; getting you into the action in 15 minutes! I also actively try to keep prices down to be as inclusive as possible and keep things affordable for all players. A big proportion of player fees is used to buy more sourcebooks and tools to make our games even more awesome!

I deal with rules issues by...
reading the helptext in D&D Beyond and then making a call from there.
My games focus on...
the story and your role in it. Who will you be when the choices aren't clear-cut?
When it comes to voices
I love to try out new sounds to help distinguish NPCs.
DM Darque's ideal table
My game is collaborative and story-rich. You'll love my table if you want to lift each other up to solve problems and work together. If you're a lone wolf.... you won't get much airtime.
