About me

Hello Adventurer! πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ 32 he/him βš”οΈ My name is Teague Urquhart and I am a Game Master and super fan of Tabletop Role Playing Games! πŸ“– I have been a player of Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) since 2018 and took up the mantle of Game Master (GM) later that same year. I love story-telling and aim to provide my groups with a solid narrative that can be explored and built upon. I'm always seeking to better my work and provide more immersive and entertaining experiences for my players. πŸ§‘β€πŸ« I am also a Educator and have worked in the field with youth for the past 6 years. I bring this patience and supporting skill set to my games. πŸ₯Ύ I hike, forage, bird watch, and bushcraft as hobbies and bring this natural knowledge into my games to life. πŸ—£ Communication with my groups is ongoing and constructive to help new players explore the immersive worlds that TTRPGs have to offer without feeling like they have to learn everything the game has to offer on the first day. I am also a practitioner of Non-Violent Communication (NVC) and utilise its techniques in my games. πŸ“² I also run a Roleplaying Discord Server with community of over 400 people.

GM Style

I love roleplaying and NPC's and creatures in my games all have their own personalities and voice. In my pre-campaign survey we will determine what kind of game we want to run. More fast-paced or slowed down and tactic oriented. In each case the game will revolve around the story of your characters and the world they inhabit. My games will be weekly 3 hour sessions with a 10 minute break at the half way point. 🎭 I love to change my voice and demeanour for each character I inhabit and will aim to stay in character unless the players have questions for me. 🎢 I seek out and curate music, tokens, battle maps, and art for player immersion. 🎨 I try to paint a picture with my descriptions while not over describing. The players lead the way and I improvise along the way with my knowledge of the world. πŸ“ I will be prepared for each session and take point form notes to keep the transitions between session smooth. 0️⃣ A firm believer in session 0 to establish player and Game Master etiquette and meet everyone with where they are at in terms of experience and what they want out of the game. πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ I welcome all people to my table and seek to keep everyone comfortable in and out of the game. πŸ’ͺ I want to welcome new players to the game and will spend the time to get them up to speed. I also ask all other players in my game to be open to having new players.

Teague made jumping into my first game so easy and fun! I’ve played two one shots and am in a campaign with him currently. He puts so much care and detail into his games. He rolls with the punches and antics of his players, and is just there to make sure we have a great time. And we always do! Thanks Teague! I hope I’m always at your table! :)

GM Teague puts a unique creative spin on his stories that makes even traditionally pre-written campaigns unexpected and exciting! He weaves character backstories into the storyline in some really fun ways!

Really enjoyed playing in the game! The way they set up their onboarding made joining and getting integrated into the game so easy. They had a flair for the dramatic that made me read with my mouth agape multiple times. He moves the game and checks in often! Awesome GM who you should absolutely sign up for a game with! :)
