About me

Hello There! My name is Dorian and I thrive to specialize in SW5E (Star Wars), a complete D&D overall into the amazing setting of the Star Wars universe. I fell in love with the setting ever since I saw the prequels as a kid growing up with my father, who also shared this passion. Once I discovered my passion for acting in theater, since the age of 16, I naturally fell in love with the DM helm. Now, using all the DM skills I learned over the years, I'm dedicated to creating awesome Star Wars stories with you all! Let's make the jump to light-speed to epic adventures! Oh, and please don't upset the Wookie.... May The Force Be With You!

GM Style

My style is all into role play and diving into player character backstories and weaving them into the heart of the story. I highly enjoy character development and progression as every moment in my games matter for your characters and how they perceive the world around them. I love doing voices for each of my characters, to give each character personality and feel different. As a player, you'll grow connected and will enjoy interacting with each one. I absolutely enjoy combat as a heavy drama and nail biting experience, as a player you’ll care deeply about the characters around you and the consequences that could happen to the world that your in. I am more heavy on role play, but I use combat to build and put pressure on the story and have an impact on your decisions. I implement some home brew rules, using the rules as a base. I make sure I play test these rules so that they are fair, only to add more intensity to the experience like combat. I love creating worlds and the history to them, as I feel it adds to the experience as a player making it feel much more alive and exciting! Respect and Communication are huge to me, as I believe it’s my responsibility to make sure everyone feels comfortable at “the table”. When available, we can talk either in voice chat or text via discord about character backstories and the world or any other questions or concerns as well!

Dorian is Awesome! I'm a bit sad that I did not get to play in the game for long but what I did experience was worth the price and then some. He provides great visual aids that help build a vibrant world setting for his players as well as plenty of help with character building for new and old players. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an awesome game.

Very welcoming towards new players. For a first-time D&D experience, I could not have asked for a better first jump. Already excited for Ep. 2!

If you enjoy role play dominant campaigns this is your guy. His combat scenes are great too but I personally enjoy role playing. I’m using a gunslinger right now and the DM really allows my character a chance to shine and I truly appreciate that.

As a new player, Dorian was very welcoming. Didn't set up a weird dynamic between myself and the more experienced players and is weaving a very interesting story in an expansive world. Also flexible in allowing the players to determine their reactions and where the story goes (even though there's definitely something planned that is building). Great experience!
