About DM Nate

I've been playing and GM'ing roleplaying games (with an emphasis on Dungeons & Dragons) for almost 20 years. I enjoy interacting with themes of high-fantasy with elements of magi-tech. Final Fantasy, Legend of Zelda, and Devil May Cry are some of my favorite game series and I take great inspiration from them.

How DM Nate runs games

For my shorter games (one-shots or short adventures), I like setting up a well-designed game for my players with a clear beginning, middle and end. For campaigns, I like letting my players help build the world and environment with their characters and their choices. I love roleplay and reward the players for participating in it. I love creating combat encounters that are unique and can be finished in numerous creative ways. My games are a mix of high-stakes combat and roleplay-driven encounters.

Featured Prompts

My games focus on...

collaborative storytelling and interesting combat encounters. I really enjoy running the official printed D&D adventures, but augment them by including PC backstories.

DM Nate's ideal table

New and veteran players welcome. My games are a mix of comedy and realism; fun and grit. My games are low-stress, and I try my best to guide newbies through the process.

Featured Prompts

I think min/maxing...

is a fun way to play the game. I will try to keep encounters challenging for you if you make powerful characters.

My table is not the place for...

disrespect and discrimination. I believe most differences can be settled with communication, but I have a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to racism, sexism, verbal abuse, etc.
