About me

Hello there, I’m Erik! I have been a Dungeon Master for D&D 5th edition since its release in 2014. Since then I have logged thousands of hours running games both in person and online. I love the adventure, laughs, gasps, and those nail biting moments where a single dice roll can shape an outcome. To me D&D is a cooperative story we tell together. I have always been a huge fantasy and gaming nerd. When D&D 5th edition dropped in 2014 I got interested in it and decided to buy the players handbook and some sheets. Got a little group going and did the Starter campaign "Lost mines of Phandelver" It was SOOOO much fun I decided to immediately start running more games. Since then Ive ran campaigns like: Curse of Strahd x4 Tomb of Annihilation x1 Ghosts of Saltmarsh x2 Lost mines of Phandelver x1 Homebrew campaigns x8 approx. I have experience in both virtual and tabletop games. I have tons of maps, tokens, music etc. I have my own Patreon page where I am a TTRPG mapmaker for games like D&D, Warhammer, Traveller, and much more! I love every minute of it and hope to add many more thousands of hours in the future! Most of my digital experience is on Discord and Roll20, but Ive been learning other engines as of late to try them out.

GM Style

I am extremely strong at improv, whether that's coming up with a unique encounter on the fly, or roleplaying as a host of NPCs. There nothing you can throw at me I cant handle! I rather enjoy when the players do something unexpected and unique. It makes the game more interesting for me when I don't always know what's going to happen next. My characters tend to be fun and over the top, with a mix of serious and silly mixed together. I love giving NPC memorable features or personalities. I also do character voices when it serves the story. I have a wide array of voices! I really enjoy creating strong and satisfying combat encounters. Dungeons and combat are Id say my greatest skills as a DM at all levels of play. I have spent a lot of time honing my DM abilities in combat so I can make them run as smooth and quick as possible. I love creating situations that challenge players, as well as moments where their abilities can really shine! I am willing to run any type of adventure out there! From Swashbuckling pirate games to Gothic horror goodness. I can run set modules, or create unique homebrew worlds for my players based off of their favorite movie, show or IP. My favorite games to run tend to be open-world, and player-focused adventures, as opposed to a more guided story with set plot points. The one thing I tend to steer away from as a DM are very deep complex political games that are heavily RP based. I prefer lighter stories with more action.
