Hi folks! I'm Tom! And Dungeons & Dragons is my greatest passion. Perhaps that is similar to yourself, or maybe you are someone who is simply curious and wants to dip their toe into these waters. Regardless, I think we’ll get along swimmingly. A veteran on StartPlaying, in terms of Dungeon Mastering accomplishments, I have: 🐲 had a published interview by the official D&D magazine “Dragon+” 🐲 almost a decade of experience in DMing 🐲 interpreted for the popular D&D comedy show “Adventurers Wanted” at the Edinburgh Fringe 🐲 made the odd player cry at my table (...

"He’s like Mrs. Dalloway, but with dice." - my favorite review ever Well met, fellow human! Let's sit down and come up with a story, something that we'll be remembering fondly for years afterwards. Let's make up stupid voices and get all emotional over a fake donkey, let's turn up the battle music and feel tension as the enemy moves across the field. Let's create some badass moments. As you may have gathered, I'm a big fan of the collaborative nature of tabletop roleplaying. I believe the game runs best when I don't know what's going to happen next, you don't know w...

I have been DMing for most of my life, and I may be one of those few people who is a forever DM by choice. I go all out on my campaigns, utilizing every tool at my disposal to give you a singular experience. My players often find that they have the campaign on their mind, even when they're not playing. I create a real community at my table, even among strangers. Many of my players have wound up meeting in real life because they've become such good friends at the table. I ease new players in, teaching them the game as we play so that they can keep the focus on their ch...

I am a compulsive storyteller, and adore telling stories with people. I love the mechanical bits and bobs of games, but my real passion is for the cooperative storytelling. It's the blend of thoughts and ideas all mixed together that makes roleplaying games a unique and treasured medium. I've been GMing for 16 years now, with experience in a wide rage of systems and settings, and always looking forward to expanding my horizons and experiences. Personal favorite games include Unknown Armies (2e), Dread, Swashbucklers of the Seven Skies, and Wild Talents. I can't wait ...

Matt here! I fell in love with tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) playing Dungeons & Dragons in 1989. I was eight years old, over at my friend's house, and their older brother ran the game. Though the game only lasted three weeks, I was hooked on the story, world-building, and absolute joy of the game. However, I couldn't find anyone to run e-games or be a Game Master. So, I accepted that role and turned as many friends I could into players, then began turning any players I could find into friends. My first love is the story and characters, and combat keeps it inter...

Hey there! Since you're browsing for a game, let me tell you a bit about me and mine. I am a veteran DM with more than fifteen years of experience. I have been a part of a plethora of campaigns and events. I've played with hundreds of both friends and strangers in houses, gaming stores, events, conventions and gaming clubs. For the last two years, I have been a full time DM, running several games every week. My main goal is to have fun games where my players can feel comfortable and become invested in. Nothing makes me feel happier in RPGs than listening to my playe...

My name is Azabiel and I am the Guild Master of the Guild of Legends! Located in the space between spaces, the liminal highway of planes and realms, upon the first star in the heart of the multiverse! I've been a Game Master for over eight years, primarily playing D&D 5e. This experience spanned multiple games that I would run per week, as well as some in which I was a player. I've dabbled in other systems over the years, but certainly have the greatest grasp on D&D 5e and various conversions for it. I've created multiple homebrew settings for a variety of genres, in...

Yooooooo I have been a DM for close to a decade, but in a roundabout way it took me a few years to find D&D. I rolled with a group that was too cool to play something as 'mainstream' as D&D. Sad to think I spent so long fiddling around in vague things like FATE to appease them! Now I've been my own DM for about five years, running things like Pathfinder 1e and D&D 5e in campaigns both prewritten and homebrewn. I've learned a lot of lessons, made a lot of mistakes, and I think I've come out the other side, if not a great DM like my players tell me, then an experienced ...

Hello, adventurers! My name is Jason Richardson, and I’ve been immersed in the world of RPGs for the past 40 years. Early on, it became clear that my friends weren’t keen on stepping into the GM role, so I took the reins—and I’ve been behind the screen ever since! With over four decades of experience as a Game Master, I bring a wealth of passion and creativity to every game. Beyond RPGs, I also hold a degree in Illustration, which often leads to players asking me to draw or paint their characters. My approach to games is highly visual, making my sessions immersive and...

Hey there! I'm Gamersaurus Lex, a longtime player and GM who owned a local game store for about a decade. I am a happy-go-lucky extrovert that spent the last decade of his life running a FLGS and professionally nerding out with gamers of every age and disposition. I love running games with lots of excitement, fully realized NPCs, and a true open sandbox approach, even when we're running an established module. You want to ignore the module's storyline and chart your own course? I will make it happen! Prefer to play in one of my homebrew campaigns set in the Moonsea R...

I've been playing and running tabletop games since the mid 1990s. I loved creating and running stories for my friends, as well as fun and interesting characters to be a part of a shared story (and to provide a little entertainment for whomever was running the game as well). Over the last 25 plus years I've enjoyed meeting new friends and making connections playing in person and online. I see the process of running a game as a way to build connections with people and to have a shared experience where the goal is to have fun creating a shared story. As a game master, my ...

Hey, I am Jonathon but you can call me Jona. I am a long time nerd who loves everything from science to science fiction, history to fantasy, music and art. I was introduced to TTRPGs when I was a kid and when I found Dungeons and dragons in the mid 2000s I was hooked. I love introducing the game to new people, so naturally I had to become a GM. You can expect me to be a narrative-driven dungeon master that enjoys tactical combat. Also, as a racially ambiguous member of the LGBT community I try to be inclusive with everyone.

Hi I'm Chris I have been playing DND for a few years now and I have a GM for about 5 years now I have run games for friends but where most of my experience comes from is the games I run at my local game shop.

Hello everyone! It's Shatargat! I'm a gamemaster with Turkish nationality, who runs his games in English since mid 2022. I'm a game designer and scenario author, and I mostly use these skills on my games. My main genre in everything is horror. I really like horror, occultism, supernatural stuff, mystery and other dark themes as well. I personally prefer heavy and extreme touches on the games, but I know that I can meet people on the common ground, and bring fun into these dark games. I'm also a content creator in my native language. And companies like Chaosium Inc.,...

I launched my professional game-mastering journey in the fall of 2020, but my passion for running tabletop games stretches back nearly 15 years before that, entertaining friends both online and offline. My roots are in 3rd Edition D&D and Pathfinder, and I've played through every edition up to the current 5th. My repertoire also includes a wide variety of Powered by the Apocalypse and small-press indie games. Always on the hunt for innovative storytelling tools, so I'm your go-to DM for any offbeat indie game you've been itching to play but couldn't find someone to run...

Hello fellow gamers! I have loved TTRPGs since my first encounter with them in junior high school, when my friends and I played old school 2nd Edition D&D. In my early adulthood I fell in love with D&D 3/3.5, and became a forever DM amongst my friends. I have been running D&D 5E for the past few years and have been running Pathfinder 2E for 2+ years now here on StartPlaying. I have over 25 years experience as a GM across several TTRPGs. I am an avid gamer and storyteller with a deep love for this hobby. So please come and join my games, and lets start playing t...

Rule of Cool is king!

Hey y'all, I'm Penny your Southern gothic, trans femme DM! She/her 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ I'm an Eberron enthusiast who has been running tabletop adventures, creating new worlds, and telling stories for parties of all sizes for the last two decades. I prioritize community and party cooperation in my campaigns - no one person may save the world (or destroy it) on their own. Bringing unique, individual character stories together, melding those with memorable NPC companions, and creating dynamic challenges both in and out of initiative is all part of my recipe to deliver a campai...

As you enter the room, you can see a table with some miniature on it. At the other side of the table, you a shield that you can't identify if it's protecting someone or from someone. "Greetings" - he says - "Welcome to the table. Have a seat, your character and your dices. The ones around you are your friends for the story we are going to tell. Yes, I said WE, because indeed, it's your story. I'm just that voice that comes from nowhere sometimes to throw some Magic, Interrogative and Provocative words for you. Our story begins......" Respect is something that counts...

I will set the stage for you to tell your character's tale. Storytelling is at the heart of everything I do, from creative writing to teaching literature to myths and legends retellings around the campfire. Good stories are all about tension and release, about stakes. Tabletop Roleplaying Games are another manifestation of that but are unique in one way: we create stories together. We become the heroes we have always dreamed of. I’ve been a professional Gamemaster for over three years and a non-pro GM for far longer. I’ve clocked over 1000 hours of digital GMing (not ...

Experienced DM and player. I run a discord server and a youtube channel. I enjoy running fast paced cinematic D&D games with action, shenanigans, humor, and grit. My style ranges from grim dark to high camp. I also grow catnip for the felines I meet in life.

Hey! I'm Dyer, I've been playing RPGs for over 30 years, my older brother started playing them with me before i hit double digits and I'm familiar with a wide variety of games. I am a progressive, non-adversarial GM that believes in player agency and table safety. I also absolutely love teaching people new games, and thought this would be a great way to do that.

I have been playing TTRPGs since high school, and introduced many friends to the hobby through college. For the last 7 years, most of my DMing practice came from a Living campaign, running over a hundred sessions online for dozens of individuals. I am a creative individual, with experience improvising in response to player nonsense (possibly the best part of any game) who enjoys seeing more off-the-wall character concepts. While I make an effort to keep things balanced, I prefer to err in the side of player enjoyment. I am a trans woman, and the only people not welco...
