About me

Howdy! My name is Ellie. I have been playing and DMing DND 5e and a host of other systems (such as Masks, Monster of the Week, Good Society, and have even made my own TTRPG system) for almost 10 years. I would love to take my skill set and use it to host even more games. DMing is super fun for me, and I love coming up with new modules and story ideas to have a good time with players foiling my plans every step of the way. I am part of the LGBT community, and when I host games you can be sure that it is a safe space for any queer players. I also do not tolerate racism, sexism, or any other hateful content or speech at my tables. I aim to make my games fun and safe for all involved. On this note, I utilize the X card so that players know they can take a time out any time if needed to discuss how to proceed if they are uncomfortable with a current situation in game. I am open to almost any setting or system that you want to try. I am a flexible, highly collaborative DM who plays for the love of the game. Please feel free to message me any specific questions on discord.

GM Style

I love roleplay and tactical combat. I am a huge lover of character driven stories, and one of my favorite things to do is just set up a world and plop the characters into it just to see what happens. That said, I am super down for creating a storyline with clear objectives for players who dislike a sandbox type game. I will absolutely work with you on building characters and finding ties to the world so you feel more connected to the game.

Recently had the pleasure of being part of a one-shot ran by Ellie. I would say, overall, she's a strong GM who handles curve balls thrown her way well and tries to be accommodating of her players and the characters they want to play. I found her to be very responsive to player questions and open to the 'out of the box' thinking they put forward. I would recommend her to anyone new to the game especially looking to dip their toes into the TTRPG space.
