As my first experience in a TTRPG Freya has created an immersive and interesting world to explore and discover. I was nervous about having to role play and was excited to learn about proxy rolls! Which made it much less intimidating 😊

This is my 2nd RPG campaign, and Freya Nile makes it super approachable for a newbie like me. The world details and NPC roleplaying are fantastic. She always has patience for my endless questions, and is very quick at finding the relevant answers. The enemies are definitely challenging so far, but seem fair. Highly recommend Freya Nile as a GM!

This DM does not pull any punches. Be warned, character death is a very real possibility. That being said, the world building and character development has been pretty top notch. The combat flows fluently, and the system that this DM runs is incredibly deep, fixing many gripes I had with 5th Edition. I've have thoroughly enjoyed not just the difficulty of this campaign, but the serious nature while still being lighthearted. Freya Nile knows the rules inside and out, and works very much within those rules. If you are familiar with Dark Souls, think about how each enemy in the game has to follow the same rules that you do. She holds herself VERY much to this standard, and balances the difficulty accordingly to still give a challenge while engaging as much as possible with the party, yet still letting them have as much freedom to do what they wish at any point within reason.

DM is great! Really explored a new fun world and helped us with all of the rules and character creation, was very patient with us, and made us feel at home. I really enjoyed the music they picked out, as I felt it fit the world they were conveying really well!

This was my first ttrpg ever. As a new player i was thrilled that freya was more than happy to help me with any questions i had, and i had a LOT! The adventure felt immersive right off the get go and i love that role playing in the game can be done by proxy roll, made role playing feel less intimidating , and if im honest you roll low on a few proxy rolls, role playing seems less scary and just putting the effort forward is usually rewarded

I was absolutely brand new to ttrpg and I have nothing but fantastic things to say. Eveything has been explained to me wonderfully. I don't ever feel judged or dumb for asking a question. The world is so fun. I have an all around absolutely amazing time playing!
