About me

Hi! I’m a passionate GM with 5+ years of experience, specializing in D&D 5e. I craft immersive, story-driven adventures where your choices shape the world. Expect rich lore, dynamic NPCs, and a balance of meaningful combat, roleplay, and exploration. I run custom campaigns using Foundry VTT with full automation, animated maps, music via Discord bots, and campaign wikis. My background in Biomedical Informatics brings vivid detail and realism to every scene. Whether you’re new or experienced, you’ll be welcomed with a Session Zero and open feedback culture. Let’s create something unforgettable together!

GM Style

My GM style mixes immersive storytelling with cinematic, tactical combat. You'll meet fully voiced NPCs with depth and purpose, in a world that reacts to your choices. Expect a 70/30 focus on roleplay and exploration, with character-driven plots and emotional stakes. Combat is dynamic and narrative-rich, with animated maps, vivid effects, and dramatic twists. Every battle means something, beyond just hit points. All adventures unfold in Korala, a living world shaped by players—full of lore, politics, and consequences. I value safety, laughter, and storytelling with heart. Foundry VTT, immersive audio, and a custom wiki bring it all to life.
