About DungeonMaster Derek

I've been DMing for over 30 years across multiple systems and editions. I am a professional voice actor and lend these talents to the characters and NPCs in the games I host. I prefer and specialize in 3.5 & Pathfinder 1E core, or with homebrew spiced rules. If you want to play some authentic Dark Sun or Planescape faithfully updated to the 3.5/Pathfinder rules set then you're in for an epic adventure! I'll also run whatever game or system you'd like. Christian, welcome, friendly, and tolerant of all who wish to play regardless of race, creed, gender, preference or ideology.

Holy heck, this GM was a blast! I took a seat on the Rick And Morty roster, and I don't regret it one bit. The game master really brings the characters to life, with the perfect vocal mimicry of a true voice actor. The game itself was exciting, funny and very enjoyable. I can honestly say I look forward to what else Derek has to offer, and have plans of booking a private session with a full group in the very near future. Thanks again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Fun Play Style, Great Voices and References. Worked with me to select a character ahead of the game and in getting set up for my first play through with StartPlaying. Many bells and whistles I wan not expecting in the dungeon and within the roll20 interface. I had fun joining a random party and would really love to get DM Derek to run a game for my real life friends and I.

Awesome GM! Well prepared. He had character sheets ready to go and worked perfectly on Roll20. AMAZING character voices. I felt really immersed in the game. I had a blast. One of the best DMs I've ever had.

Easily the strongest part of Derek's abilities is his ability to do voice acting. His Rick impression is on a level of excellence I have not heard barring the original voice actor. This alone would be worth the price of admission. However, a mere hair's breath away from his uncanny ability to voice a drunken reality-hopping mad scientist is ability to manage a game. This dungeon was one that I believed would have been made and operated by Rick. Prepare yourself(s). You'll need it(them).

This campaign is quick to gain momentum and caries the adrenaline all the way through. Roleplaying and combat are at the forefront of this adventure alongside puzzles. The characters provided are each unique and offer a truly imaginative play style that is easy to follow. I would recommend this campaign and game master for anyone who really wants to go all in from start to finish.

How DungeonMaster Derek runs games

Whether you want to dive into a no-holds barred insane Rick&Morty death dungeon fest DMed by Rick Sanchez himself in costume, or be brought to the deserts of Dark Sun, I'll immerse you with all my years of dungeon mastering and professional voice acting talents. A 3.5 old-school DM of more than 30 years. Oldschool, newschool, D20 Fallout? All that and more! Ask and you shall receive. I like to focus on story and character driven RP and drive players to think outside the box and treat the game like a fantasy adventure simulation rather than simply a game. I also will change my style and attitude to suit the specific system, module or Campaign setting that I'm running. I'll never tell you: "No you can't do that." I'll find a way to have you roll something, or a series of somethings so you can try. And ya'know what? you can always crit, and that's a %5 chance on a D20, so at least once every 20 times you might pull off something great.
