About me

What's up party people? I'm Matt, a forever Dungeon Master for over 7 years! I've had so much fun hosting friends, family, kids, strangers and everybody in-between at my Dungeons & Dragons tables. If you're thinking about trying D&D 5e for the first time, or flexing your roleplay muscles with a new group, let's team up! I primarily host through Roll20 and Discord. I'm available for pre-game character creation tutorials, session zeros, one-shots and short adventures. I primarily run official Wizards of the Coast D&D 5e content, but I have a couple other systems up my sleeve. LGBTQ+ friendly, RPG Safety Compliant and a firm believer in the "Rule of Cool". Questions are welcome! Find me on Discord: Dungeon Mattster #4811 - Matt

GM Style

I thrive in High Magic Heroic Fantasy. Generally, I am 50/50 on roleplay and combat, and try my best not to let rules detract from a great roleplay situation or slow down combat. When it comes to roleplay, I'm not afraid to delve into silliness, theatrics, villany and passion. Every NPC you meet will have something to say (even the plants and beasts, for all you Druids out there!) When it comes to combat, I like keeping things intense and fast! I actively swap out mechanics that rob players of whole turns (looking at you, D&D 5e Stunned & Paralyzed) and find a better way to challenge the players... I also have an optional House Rule to make Skill Checks cheaper and more useful in combat! Lastly, I believe a DM is a host, not an adversary. My players can expect to have lots of creative agency, spotlight, and a even a little "DM power"... but with a little power comes a little responsibility. My table is RPG safety compliant and runs on open communication.
