About me
Hello there! My name is Ari!!! - I’m a seasoned gamer and live performer with nearly 20 years of experience in both! My passion for game design and immersion drives me to craft engaging, welcoming adventures that cover a variety of tones. - I focus on ensuring every voice at the table is heard and every character has their moment to shine. I love creating memories! RPGs are about experiencing a fantasy and nothing is more fantastic than memorable moments of your character's success! - Don’t miss my monthly free one-shots!!!
GM Style
I’m passionate about every aspect of the game! As a narrative-focused DM, I thrive on crafting stories driven by your characters and empowering group agency. For over 15 years, I’ve run campaigns in a custom setting of my own creation, fueled by a deep love of shared world-building. My games feature compelling challenges, memorable villains, and the option for tactical action to bring every story to life.

Terrific narrative ability and truly immersive DM style. Was fully accommodating to player needs, and brought a sense of cohesion to the party throughout. Great pacing and thoroughly knowledgeable. Was great with both lesser and more experienced players as we had a mixed group. Would recommend for any level player.

Ari was a great DM. Very patient and kind. Really helped folks who were not sure about rules, what to do, and how to use Roll 20. The session we did was original and a great game!
