About me

Have you found the comradery and life long friends you hoped for through D&D? Has your hero left a lasting impact on a living world where they teetered between certain death and becoming a legend? Did you experience all three pillars of adventuring in a campaign that lasted years yet you wished would never end? These are the things I have experienced and love to share with the community! I have lived primarily in the forgotten realms for nearly 30 years now. I have led family, friends, coworkers, and convention goers alike through countless encounters and expeditions over the years. I invite you to come experience the richness this game has to offer. Will you be left behind wondering what you missed?

GM Style

D&D is a social game first. Promoting comradery and enjoying cooperative story telling through adventure is paramount. All three pillars should be used. Social Interaction (RP) is the heart, Exploration done well should excite (people places and things), and Combat should add suspense (without a guarantee of survival) The game should be set in a living world with conflicts, motivated entities, and a chance for success or failure. The battle is between good / evil or law / chaos not between the party members. Creativity should be rewarded and role playing doubly so. Homebrew rules should be simple and few. Creativity should be rewarded and welcomed at the table. Finding a good group or GM can be difficult. Please reach out on Discord with any questions or to see if we are a good fit! =) PNWGamer#7111

Chris is an excellent DM! This is not your run of the mill D&D experience on SPG. You will absolutely grow as a player and/or DM with the way Chris brings all three pillars of the game to bear. He has next leveled the game for me in a number of ways and I've never been more excited for my Monday nights. His games are a great fit for veteran and new players alike. If you want a fun, authentic, engaging, and challenging D&D experience, get yourself into one of his games ASAP. This is the real deal.

Chris is a spectacular DM! He prepares his sessions with significant detail. Submerging you in the campaign, with a wide cast of NPCs and encounters to come across. His campaigns stick true to DND and every item has an importance or can be used. He presents opportunities for everyone to shine at the table. I strongly recommend if a spot is open at the table to take as it likely won't be open for long.

We are playing an open campaign set in Chult. The GM is passionate about this setting and it shows through. He's always prepared and presents situations, NPCs, and monsters clearly with solid story telling, and gives us room to take the story where we want to.
