About me

I am a D&D Facilitator (Dungeon Master) with 40 years of experience providing game sessions in this wonderful hobby. In today's world, remote gaming has proven to be the perfect venue, and I began my journey 11 years ago with Fantasy Grounds. Since then, I have run a number of long-term campaigns. To play, a Player only needs a Demo version of Fantasy Grounds and Discord installed on their PC. I supply everything else required to play Dungeons and Dragons.

GM Style

My viewpoint is to be able to provide players with fun, as a group. I'm not so much into roleplaying but try to provide an engaging story that requires your input, decisions and most of all, dice rolling to determine the direction of that story. My sessions are light-hearted, casual and thought out, trying to impart humor and excitement when things go right, but will also keep you in the dark when your character is likewise be-fuddled. In playing out the NPCs, I will intimidate as well as act the fool if the situation calls for it. Bottom line is the group should enjoy all that is given to them.

He just let us try fun things, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn’t, but very enjoyable.

The GM is very knowledgeable and has been doing this for a bit, so he knows his stuff. He is very patient, and is more than willing to help and impart wisdom, making for a relaxing atmosphere. He is well spoken and sets the scene very well, including detailed pictures and maps. The sessions are character driven, so you get to decide the content, from relaxing in town, to spelunking in a dark and cramped cave with crocodiles, to knocking on the door of the local goblins who are harassing the locals. The combat is not too difficult, but there will be some tactic needed to survive, and I am speaking with experience (doesn't matter how much armor you have, 1 person against 6 goblins at lvl 1 is a bad idea). I've found it to be a great experience so far and cannot wait to continue into higher levels!

This GM is very patient and very good at explaining both the game rules and how to operate the systems he uses to present the games to his players. This is my first time playing with visual aids and it's being handled so well that I may struggle with theater of the mind in the future. Even after only one session I rate this GM very highly.

Great introduction into Fantasy Grounds, good giving instructions on how to use the software. All around great experience. It was my first time playing a caster and I felt supported and encouraged the whole way.

Very knowledgeable and patient. Two great traits when dealing with a new player like I am! Will definitely be back to continue the adventures! Thanks George! Revision- I now have had several sessions with George, and my gaming keeps getting better! I've learned so much from him as a beginner. I've been able to apply that knowledge to my other campaigns with great success. Thanks again!

I can't say enough of GeorgeC and his DMing abilities. He is patient, fair, well prepared, knowledgeable, and helpful just to name a few. His rich, textured voice is perfect for narrating and his one shots and campaign are full of adventure and excitement. His knowledge of Fantasy Grounds is vast and he is great at explaining how to use the software. I highly recommend him as a DM no matter if you are a beginner or a seasoned adventurer.
