About me
Hi! I'm Ben (a.k.a. EdwinFelspar) By day, I'm a high school teacher specializing in game design electives. By night, I'm a long-time GM with a deep love for storytelling, worldbuilding, and collaborative chaos. After over a decade in the TTRPG space — mostly running D&D 5e — I've decided to bring my games to StartPlaying to challenge myself, meet new players, and help fund the hobby I love. Let’s tell unforgettable stories together.
GM Style
I run games that are player-driven, character-focused, and rich with narrative depth. My sessions emphasize emergent storytelling — I love seeing how choices ripple through the world and how NPCs and factions adapt to your actions. I’m flexible with tone: I can go full gothic horror, high-fantasy heroics, or somewhere delightfully weird in between. Mechanically, I keep things rules-as-intended with room for cinematic flair. I'm a fan of creative problem-solving, and I always reward clever ideas, bold risks, and strong roleplay. Expect vivid settings, layered plots, and memorable NPCs — with a healthy mix of exploration, social intrigue, and combat. Whether you're a new player or a seasoned adventurer, I aim to make every session engaging, collaborative, and tailored to your party's style.
