I got started GMing...
because I love to write stories and watch people having fun experiencing it and making it their own through their own characters.
When I'm not running games I'm...
playing games on Steam such as RimWorld, Age of Empires 2, Skyrim, vrchat, and more. I also support a local cat rescue group here in Japan where we also adopted our current cat Belle from!
How Dylan runs games
My games have a nice mix of both roleplay and combat. Some sessions may be more roleplay heavy than others due to how the story is written, but overall has a good mix of both. I love writing story arcs that are tailored to my players with some fun twists! I enjoy hosting games both for experienced players as well as players just trying out D&D for the first time! Even if a player has zero experience, I really enjoy teaching new players! I also enjoy making custom items for characters. For example, I had 2 players who were front line melee fighters that had recently slain a few wolves. They had a great roleplay session following the encounter, so I gave them cloaks made from the wolf pelts that grant them the Pack Tactics feature. My games are sandboxes for everyone to have fun in and do what they want, I just keep the story going and roll with your ideas!

I deal with rules issues by...
first understanding what the player wants to accomplish. If it's within reason, or just super awesome, then I will happily bend the rules to accommodate my players!
My games focus on...
my players having fun throughout the game, experiencing the world I've created for them, and watching my player's characters have stories of their own to tell and experience.
Rules are...
Rules are only base guidelines. If you want to do something awesome, and within reason, then go for it! My games are wide open sandboxes for you to write your stories!
Dylan's ideal table
My table is always a good time amongst players that get along well, as we are all here to have fun right? I derive joy from watching my players discover the world they find themselves in, meeting fun and interesting characters, and embarking on their own story arc besides the main story plot! This table is for you if you want to immerse yourself in a fun and interesting world!
