About GM Nicolai

Chill, outgoing, nerdy and most of all DnD loving person. I like to make the game fun for everyone and make players have the feeling of being able to do anything. I follow the PHB, but if something just makes sense in the moment, either for the sake of storytelling, or for the sake of fun, I allow it without a doubt. I've run campaigns with five different groups now. so far only with great feedback. I’m a student and would therefore love to play some games online in my spare time. Looking forward to meeting you!

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

...climbing and studying mathematics :)) just a normal guy with a nerdy hobby (borderline obsession at this point)

How GM Nicolai runs games

As I mentioned I like the feeling of player freedom. if you want to do something but the rules doesn’t allow it, I will find a way to make your dreams come true in some balanced way, shape or form. I like to do voices, I like detailed descriptions, I like story that players can be invested in and I like a well thought out character with quirks, strengths and weaknesses. I would say my greatest asset is my improvisation. In my experience the best moments come out, when I’m thrown into a scenario I didn’t plan for. On the other hand my greatest weakness is remembering the name of an improvised NPC. Other than that I would say I am very good at open communication, and will always appreciate feedback and advice. In my eyes that will only build a oneshot or campaign’s enjoyability up and improve my own vision for the adventure.

GM Nicolai's ideal table

Mostly people who likes to have fun with the game. I will of course set the scene and paint the picture, but what really drives my tables forward is the players taking weird choices, or doing creative stuff. I am not a big fan of telling people no, if you would like to try something. More often than not there is a way to make that something enjoyable and functional. Go crazy, just remember actions have consequences :))
