About me

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 almost 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 together!

GM Style

I tend to favor a nice mix of tactical combat, roleplay, and environmental/puzzle challenges. I prefer a strong narrative that fuels the reasons and motivations for the characters, NPCs, and gives weight to the combat encounters. I have been playing TTRPGs for over 30 years, and a DM for 25. I provide a variety of voices, bring life and believability to the world and NPCs and love weaving a narrative.

Great GM who adapts the adventure well to the players and is flexible when it comes to making changes. Dom has well prepared and set up the possible scenarios that players may encounter, and helps newcomers.

Dom is a great teacher - he has amazing knowledge of the rules. He also cares about player fun, so he's willing to make adjustments during character creation, and during play, to ensure that people are getting enjoyment out of playing the character. He's always keeping the games positive, even when we're all rolling terribly! He is up to date with all the latest Foundry modules and mechanics, and takes time between games to make helpful little buttons/effects/links for player's character skills/abilities that aren't currently supported in the software. I look forward to playing with him each and every game session.

I am in a game with Fiona and have Josh as a GM. We also have another player who is playing an Orc Champion. This character is a Redeemer and a great scene developed as he tried to heal a monster to give her a chance at redemption. This got into a philosophical argument after the battle with Fiona trying to point out that in battle you have to have clear lines so that we can progress forward and that death of another is acceptable. I started to argue that what was being offered was not redemption but enslavement. I am playing an evil character and working with the party. We have started to develop a chemistry as I will take advantage of the good characters being good to get what I want and giving them an out they will appreciate. Like letting a murder off because he gave me something to prove he is dead for the 150 gold bounty while keying on the redemption of the murderer for the Champion. My motivation was the money and I got backup from the Champion because of the redemption. We are all playing roles within a party and working well together. It has been a great deal of fun.

Pro at Pathfinder 2E and Foundry. Awesome DM who knows his Foundry mods and makes the TTRPG experience streamlined and immersive.
