I became a GM because

I find it incredibly fulfilling. Being a GM allows me to utilize many of my own personal interests and hobbies, and combine them for others to enjoy. It's also the comradery and communal story building that's always unique to each session.

People are always surprised when I tell them

That I'm actually not really a big gamer. I do play video games, but usually quite badly.

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

Playing or recording music! I also do some voice acting and writing on the side as well. I also really enjoy making art, whether drawing, sculpting or painting! I thrive on being creative, which is very much part of why I love Dungeons and Dragons.

How DarthTater runs games

Heavy roleplay, each NPC has it's own unique voice and personality. Settings are mostly mapped, with some theatre of the mind.

Featured Prompts

If my games were Movies they'd be directed by...

I'd like to say Steven Spielberg, but it's more likely Mel Brooks.

My games focus on...

Humour! Yes, I spelled it the commonwealth way. While sometimes, the tone will be dark, I encourage wit. Laughter is important sometimes.

When it comes to voices

I try my best to make each one unique. Sometimes they can be dark and mysterious, sometimes they sound like they'd fit right in with the Muppets. It usually depends on the tone.

DarthTater's ideal table

Fun, open environment.

If you're into ___, you're going to love my table

If you really like sci-fi, horror, LOTR, superhero comics, you'll fit right in. My games are usually littered with pop culture Easter eggs and references.

I think metagaming...

I like to rule that player's only know what their characters know. I can be acceptable in certain scenarios, but I generally discourage it.

My perfect party mix is

I like the one with Pretzels. But also, It's always great to have a variety of characters. I love having tanks and squishies alike in the same game.
