About DragonsGM

HELLO! I'm psyched to create a story with you. I've been running games, events, larps, and telling stories for over 20 years and I am always looking to spin more yarn. I usually introduce more than a dozen new players to the world of table top each year. I'm familiar with many systems, (some examples below) and I'm always eager to add to a system if the group wants something more unique. I like to capture the intimate details of a books while at the same time help my players feel like they are apart of a grand cinematic marvel! Rather high stakes intrigue or octane burning adrenaline, I want my games to live on not just at the table but in conversations you have with your friends and family. Examples: D&D (all editions and many homebrews made by famous youtubers like XP to Level 3, DnD Shorts, Pointy Hat, and many others), World of Darkness (all editions), Sentinels RPG, Shadow Run (all editions), Savage Worlds, Call of Cthulhu/Delta Green, All the One Page RPGs, Fireborn, Path Finder, Star Finder, Conspiracy X, Dark Conspiracy, and many more.

Featured Prompts

I became a GM because

I love to tell stories, and I love to show people why they personally, are important. Every character is birthed from a spark, I like giving some of the spotlight from the game, to you, that spark.

I got started GMing...

Over 20 years ago from my Dad, who got into GMing from his Dad! I'm the 3rd generation of GMing!

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

I'm studying to for my next up coming game.

How DragonsGM runs games

I really love to hone in on what excites the player the most. I adore the moment when a player becomes fully emersed in their character. As such I like to focus more on the details that matter or what the players believe are most interesting. As I run my games, I take notes on what excited my players the most both individually and as a group.

Featured Prompts

I prep by

Studying what my player's real life interests are (the details that they feel safe sharing with me).

My games focus on...

The details. The devil is in the details, and so am I, and so are my players.

Rules are...

Are a tool to the GM and the players. Not a master.

DragonsGM's ideal table

My ideal table is diverse. A good story comes from a collective experience.

Featured Prompts

I love it when a player

Comes up with a creative solution to a problem. Honestly though, what GM doesn't love that?

I think min/maxing...

Is ok IF the players think it is fun.

My table is not the place for...

Bigotry. I believe in: BLM ACAB LBGTQ+ I say this as someone who was in the military and was a firefighter.
