About Gibrand

Hello! My name's gibzx! I'm a digital artist and Dungeon Master! I've been playing D&D for 5 years now and it's been an evolving passion ever since. I'm always looking to add new friends and faces to my table and adventure together. May your blades be strong, and may your d20s be powerful as ever ❤️ I am a Digital Artist, Graphic Designer, and Fiction Writing Enthusiast. Originally born and raised in Mexico, I spent my childhood engrossing myself in fantasy and fiction media, which became my primary hobby and passion as I grew older. Shortly after finishing primary school, I moved to Singapore to continue my education and broaden my horizons. Living in two very distinct and quite literally opposite sides of the world has helped me absorb many interesting sources of folklore and history that I otherwise would've never encountered, as well as meeting new people that altogether have shaped my creative process when writing and creating adventures. Right now I can be found juggling many projects between running 5 different tables as a DM, as well as partaking in some games as a player & writing custom/original content that I hope to publish one day soon! Arriving today at the present, my passion for both DMing and playing has only grown stronger, as I venture out of my comfort zone to try and bring a unique experience of boundless adventure to you.

I got started GMing...

almost immediately after being introduced to D&D. Turns out my friends had a dastardly plan to set me up as a forever GM so they could always play. Twas' cool with me though, because as it turns out, I absolutely adore being a GM. Many systems and campaigns later, here I am still loving it.

My favorite shows/movies are

For movies I would go with Guillermo Del Toro's "Pan's Labyrinth", Wes Andersons "Grand Budapest Hotel" and Peter Jackson's LOTR trilogy... yes I count that as one. My shows are The Wire, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood and LOST. These and many other stories have shaped my storytelling the most

The three words my players would use to describe me are...

Immersive, Story-driven, and Kind... until initiative is rolled >:)

How Gibrand runs games

My GM style is very flexible, both narratively and mechanically. From light-hearted comedy adventures all the way to terrifying and grueling grimdark settings, whatever the players want, I will write for. whether you want a standard game or a homebrew with lethal and fear-inducing combat, or perhaps a more roleplay-centered environment. I love every aspect of TTRPG, so let's explore the spectrum of possibilities together. I've acquired a lot of experience from playing with different GMs with their own styles, as well as sporting a large repertoire of media that I love to costume from many different genres, all of which have influenced my creativity since young.

I deal with rules issues by...

Balancing fairness with fun. I treat the rules as a framework for structure instead of a cage. If bending a rule makes the story richer/lets a player explore their character in a creative way, I’ll allow it, so long as it doesn’t disrupt the enjoyment or agency of others at the table.

My games focus on...

Player-driven storytelling, atmospheric worldbuilding, and meaningful character growth. For every system and module I run, I emphasize immersion, deep meaningful roleplay and engaging combat. My goal is to make each session feel like a living, breathing story where your actions truly matter.

When it comes to voices

Voices are always encouraged, never required, you decide what you’re comfortable with. Personally, I love bringing characters to life through distinct voices, accents, and mannerisms (sometimes at the cost of my vocal cords). Every NPC should feel unique, full of personality and memorable :)
