About me

I have been running games as a DM for almost 30 years. I started my journey in 1st edition Advanced Dungeons and Dragons and have been crafting stories of my own and giving my own artistic flair to pre-printed modules. I have also been a Story Teller of Vampire the Masquerade and other World of Darkness exploits. To me, a good story is everything and its the stage the players put their own individual marks upon it. My unique spin on stories depends upon the genre of the tale, taking extremes from Jareth the Goblin King all the way to H.P Lovecraft. I am confident in my craft and look forward to spinning your unique tale.

GM Style

I am huge on story and role playing. I do character voices, world building and I put a lot of work into scene setting to try and put the player into the moment. I am always open to home brew character concepts as long as it will not upset the balance of the game.

Sahrenyth is a fantastic DM who keeps the action going. He's great at making the game challenging and creating stakes, and he's also really interested in making sure your character fulfills the fantasy you envisioned. His years of experience have shown him a wide variety of ideas and he's excited about implementing old school concepts into 5e. His knowledge of the Greyhawk setting is top tier and he's pretty well-versed in others as well, which results in lots of creative variation being applied to modules and fully unique quests and storyline up to the point where I've seen him run the same module with different groups as convergent timelines and then tie them all together at the end. He paints a lot of detail and appreciates investigation and exploration of those details. He leans more towards gritty realism as a playstyle, but even if you're not someone who typically enjoys that, I suggest giving his games a try because he might surprise you!

The Storytelling and the way he paints a scene with his words is absolutely top tier! Very knowledgeable in the world and lore.

Great world builder with consistent and sometimes reappearing NPCs that contribute to an H.P. Lovecraft esq. storyline. I joined for two separate campaigns, each with a largely different group of players. The GM is very inclusive of individual player backgrounds, personalities, and levels of experience. He has a pretty deep knowledge of the rules/spells/etc. over several D&D editions. This helped to balance between newer players (me) and those that clearly had a ton of experience. He has a great sense of humor, is extremely reliable, but also considerate of the hectic lives we all lead outside of gaming.

Sahrenyth runs a great game. He's inventive, engaged, enthusiastic and invested in the world's he creates and the players lucky to find themselves adventuring in one of his settings. Give him a shot...you won't be disappointed.

The world was all self-built and very detailed with NPC having deep backgrounds and depth. Plenty of secrets to uncover. There is lots of information to uncover and will be important later. Everything built upon itself which was great.
